Information Bomb
The International Atomic Energy Agency has finally released its awaited report, and the news media rife with speculation and no little amount of what surely must have been insider information leaked to the press, is now reporting that all that and more is confirmed. An ominously sinister warning.
The report, released to its 35-member-nation body, confirms the very worst that has been assumed about the Islamic Republic of Iran's intentions.
Some European diplomats now believe that within the space of a scant three months Iran could successfully produce a nuclear-tipped warhead. The assurances of the intelligence heads of many countries that the potential of a nuclear bomb in Iran's possession would be years in the making have been proven, as Israel always contended, to be wildly incorrect.
It has been confirmed that an ethnic Ukrainian nuclear scientist who had worked for the Soviet Union has been intimately involved for the past five years in leading Iran to its goal. Vyacheslav Danilenko, a former Soviet scientist, was contracted in mid 1990 by Iran's Physics Research Centre, to its nuclear program.
North Korea provided mathematical formulae and codes required in the design of a nuclear device, while the infamous Abdul Qadeer Khan who 'fathered' Pakistan's atomic bomb, was instrumental in producing plans for a neutron initiator for the manufacture of a bomb. A collaborative gathering of the world's trio of evil geniuses.
The IAEA details Iran's plans to triple its uranium enrichment capacity to weapons grade at its once-secret facility located deep within a mountain near the holy city of Qom; difficult to reach if an effort to destroy it by bunker-busting bombs is attempted.
Iran, it affirms, is experimenting with detonators and neutron physics which only have functional purpose for military use. No one ever really believed Iran's repeated assurances that its interest lay only in perfecting nuclear reactors for energy and medical isotope production. Other than Turkey.
Amid all the international alarm and the controversy related to Israel's newly-released rumblings about a riskily-desperate pre-emptive strike, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad jocularly speaks of destroying the "Zionist entity". While Russia rebukes Israel for its intolerance and rash statements of potential offense.
Pundits are breathlessly parsing the news, writing of the explosive danger that lurks in attempts to address the emergency issue of an Iran-owning nuclear bomb. Israel, they point out, is a tiny coastal state, not very wide, while Iran is a huge geographic presence. Which country might be more susceptible to destruction in the event of a reciprocal volley of munitions?
The world is now witnessing a very short fuse. Leading one to wonder if all of this might have been revealed had the former chief of the IAEA, Mohamed ElBaradei still been present in that position.
