Iranians Collect Own Samples For Nuclear Probe

The chief of the U.N. nuclear agency acknowledged Monday that samples used to determine whether Iran tried to develop a nuclear weapon were collected by the Iranians instead of agency experts, but insisted the probe stands up to strict agency standards.

Such sampling of soil, air or dust from equipment is usually done by the International Atomic Energy Agency’s own experts. But IAEA chief Yukiya Amano confirmed that Iranians carried out that part of the probe at Parchin, where the agency suspects that explosive triggers for nuclear weapons might have been tested in the past.

Diplomats say Iran insisted on the compromise as a condition for any probe of Parchin.

Deputy IAEA Director General Tero Varjoranta said the criteria at Parchin included: invasive monitoring by video and still cameras while the sampling took place; GPS tracking of the sampling process; IAEA agreement on where the samples were to be taken; review by unspecified peers of the inspection process; risk assessment and strict observance to make sure that procedures were followed step by step.

  1. The United States and their deals make absolutely no sense at all. Sure they want to collect their own samples then tell everyone we did it according to standards (lie, lie, lie) and everything is Aok over here (lie, lie, lie) and we won't blow you up if we are given the chance (lie, lie, lie). How damn stupid can we be. One of those Hillary/Kerry deals.

  4. In other news, Obama announced he would combat shockingly low graduation rates at selected colleges he favors by allowing students to correct their own papers and to assign their grades. He stated,"We tried this out with the Iranians, and it worked like a charm!"
