The Race is On – maybe.

Drudge is reporting that the Mullah’s are in a race to develop enough uranium hexafluoride to be enriched into weapons-grade uranium before the Mullahs suspend uranium enrichment as per the agreement worked out with France, Britain, Germany and the EU. Current estimates (according to this article) put the amount of uranium hexafluoride centrifuges at approximately 1,000 and with a minimum of 1,500 you have got yourself enough to make a small nuclear arsenal.

Mullah Foreign Minister, Hamid Reza Asefi, is denying the allegations and charges that Colin Powell should review his intelligence again. Read the rest and then decide for yourself, but I know who I would laid my money down on, if I were a betting kind of gal.
