Iran plans more powerful nuclear research reactor
2010-06-16
Iran's nuclear chief says his country is designing a new atomic research reactor in another snub of international efforts to curb the Islamic Republic's nuclear ambitions. State TV's website quotes Vice President Ali Akbar Salehi as saying Wednesday the new reactor will be more powerful than the aging, 5-megawatt U.S.-made research reactor operating in Tehran that is used to make radioactive isotopes for medical purposes. He says Iran eventually plans to build four such reactors.

#3  Let them build it, then drop a penetrator on it.

The issue, Redneck Jim, is that the last one they built, near Qom, is build under a mountain, which makes penetrating a bit difficult. Unless someone happens to prop open the backdoor, anyway.

Preferably in the core area, repeat as needed, bankrupt them.
