Iran slams Western media for politicizing technical issue in IAEA report Iran Iran's Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Ali Asghar Soltanieh Sat May 26, 2012 2:11PM GMT Highlighting and politicizing a technical issue indicates certain efforts to sully the atmosphere of constructive cooperation between Iran and the IAEA” Iran's Ambassador to IAEA Ali Asghar Soltanieh Iran's Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency has criticized Western media attempts to politicize a normal technical issue in the latest IAEA report on Tehran’s nuclear energy program. The latest IAEA report said that the traces of uranium enriched to purities of 27 percent were found at the Fordow site. Ali Asghar Soltanieh on Saturday criticized Western media hype and said “as mentioned in the IAEA report, the issue is a normal technical subject that is being investigated by experts.” He said that Western media pursue certain “political objectives” by addressing “minor technical issues” that are common in the nuclear facilities of other countries too. “Highlighting and politicizing a technical issue indicates certain efforts to sully the atmosphere of constructive cooperation between Iran and the IAEA,” he added. The envoy said that the IAEA report once again proved the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear activities and rejected allegations about the country’s nuclear activities. The report also confirms that Iran's nuclear activities, in particular the uranium enrichment, are being carried out successfully, without any interruption and under the IAEA supervision, Soltanieh added. Iran enriches uranium to 20 percent to provide fuel for Tehran’s Research Reactor, which produces medical isotopes for cancer patients. Iran has repeatedly reiterated that it does not need or plan to enrich uranium at a level above 20 percent. The agency’s latest report on Iran will be discussed during the next meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors, which will be held in Vienna on June 4. AR/HGH/IS

Doesn't U have to be enriched to 90% or better to be fissionable?
Break the Conventions - Keep the Commandments - G.K.Chesterson In physics, yes. Politicize an issue and there are as many answers as there are engravers. "I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it." - William S Burroughs
Seems to be the case. Iran's position as well as an Indian observer that is a nuclear specialist concurs that this reading is a normal occurance, and indicate little. Bibi is having "no discussion" on the matter. deleted
The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. "If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” —Samuel Adams America: Israel's Handmaiden
