Secret Iran nuclear-bomb plant expanding

Work surrounding Iran's latest secret nuclear site continues unabated, new satellite images from DigitalGlobe show. The existence of the site was first revealed by WND on Oct. 8.

The site -- Velayat 1 -- which is in the province of Isfahan on the outskirts of the small city of Najafabad, was built for research and development and has a capacity of 800 centrifuges for uranium enrichment. It already has successfully tested a neutron detonator and implosion system for a nuclear bomb.

According to the source for that exclusive WND report, research at the site includes design of a nuclear warhead for the Iranian Shahab-3 ballistic missile, which is now almost complete. The source added that there is also a nuclear reactor at the site along with a separation plant as another path to acquire a nuclear bomb.

To avoid suspicion, the site was built below a medicine factory called Abu Reyhan. The facility beneath the factory has three levels, with two underground entrances away from the facility.

This is where the father of Iran's nuclear program, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh-Mahabadi, assisted by 10 other scientists, is working on Iran's nuclear bomb program, within the SEPAND project (known by the IAEA as SPND) and under the AMAD (weapons program) to build atomic warheads.

The new images of the above-ground facility show that main buildings have been completed.

#1 if we beleive the news - who can rely on it any more? - then military readiness by the US, UK, France and Israel will jump up several notches after the Nov election in the USA. But I fully expect Iran to make a major ploy to start a fresh round of negotiations at the same time. The game just goes on and on with them.

The Iranians must be working feverishly to get one bomb assembled and ready for testing. Unless they can demonstrate a successful nuclear test before Christmas - they appear to be out of time. It's surprising that they haven't already bought the critical materials they need directly from N. Korea.
