August 1939 Alert: "Iran's plot to mine uranium in Africa," from the TimesOnline, with thanks to Sam:
IRAN is seeking to import large consignments of bomb-making uranium from the African mining area that produced the Hiroshima bomb, an investigation has revealed.A United Nations report, dated July 18, said there was “no doubt” that a huge shipment of smuggled uranium 238, uncovered by customs officials in Tanzania, was transported from the Lubumbashi mines in the Congo.
Tanzanian customs officials told The Sunday Times it was destined for the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas, and was stopped on October 22 last year during a routine check.
Ironic, this article comes out, on the same day that the Hirishoma bomb was dropped.
Meanwhile, my informant from Niger has just returned to France, a Muslim-for-identification-purposes-only Muslim, and reports that where before there were no veils, now the veils are everywhere, before where there was an easygoing syncretism of the kind found in the Islam in parts of West Africa, there are Wahhabi preachers, and new Saudi-funded mosques.
Anyone in the C.I.A. doing its own study of what is going on in Niger -- or will there be a big surprise! for everyone when they finally discover what they could find out right now, simply by sending a student back to Niger, to get the goods.
Enough surprises for the C.I.A. and the rest of the Western world's security services.
let me see the last person the CIA sent to see if Saddam was seeking the same stuff, Mr Wilson could not find any evidence, apparentely poolside chats are common for most CIA elites. now the Iranians are doing the same, maybe we can send in Mr.Wilson again. CIA has become such a pathetic organization, they were not allowed to deal with thugs under CLinton Adm. and now have not recovered.
There must be some mistake -- Iran would never do such a thing!

As long as your informant wasn't Joe Wilson, he is believable.
"The West fiddled while Islam churned."
1938 ALERT!
The UN is good for something after all. Perhaps this will strengthen the hand of the anti-jihadists on the Security Council. I would think that this would disturb even the French.
After careful consideration of where things are today, and the direction we are going, I have concluded that the best solution is simultaneous ICBM' on Pyongyang and Tehran.
Iran has to be dealt with, no one other than Israel has the fortitude to stand up to them, we will be criticized by Eurabia, so we might as well go for a twofor and get it over with.
Call China and Putin and tell them hey had their chance, duck, cuz it's launching in 60 seconds. Jihad American Style.
All they have to do is buy it from the country with the worlds 40% supplies of yellow cake - Australia
Shamefully my government is selling to the highest bidder - including the Chinese.
Can't wait to see how the Chinese send us a 'sales returns' - no need for a ship, they have a rocket!
The most interesting thing about this incident is that Iran thinks that securing yellowcake is necessary while it has domestic uranium ores. These ores are of lower quality than the African sources, but if Iran has the number of centrifuges it claims to have, then refining the lower grade stuff is not a problem. Hence, the Iranian attempt to buy African yellowcake can be interpreted two ways. First, the attempt to refine Iran's lower grade ore into nuclear fuel has failed. Second, the refining process works, but is not yielding enough nuclear fuel to produce the number of bombs Iran wants. I think the latter is the more plausible, and safer interpretation.

Until the day the hammer is lowered on Iran, we should be doing our best to undermine the government. Iran has a problem with dissidents. I believe we only broadcast real news and commentary to Iran only three hours a week. We should be running the radio broadcasts 24/7. I suppose we could "leak" a few satellite photos of Irans nuclears sites and couple the photos with some "strongly worded" commentary about the threat these sites pose. This was done in the Cuban missile crises in the early 60's. This focused the publics attention and made the Cubans and Russians fully aware we knew what targets were high on the list. The commentary became increasingly militant, a naval blockade became a reality, the nation went to a higher DEFCON alert, SAC was armed and awaited only the order to shoot. Only then did the Russians (Cuba's boss at the time)flinch. We had already notified Russia that they were also targeted. Sometimes I think that we should have invaded Cuba right then instead of "negotiating". Now in the current situation we have Iran in the place of Cuba and China in place of Russia. We have learned that "negotiating" with terrorists is a bad policy. Surrender will doom us to an earlier death, and swift and violent action may be the only course to stop this current wave of Muslim terrorist activity. The Muslims terrorists thugs have proven that they do not value life and they have openly stated they are planning to eradicate Israel and all other infidels. We should inform the world "the buck stops here". We should proceed to stamp out Iran, warn others not to interfere, be prepared to deal with a wave of strife world wide that is sure to follow from the numerous terrorist cells already in place world wide. Failure to act now only allows the Muslim terrorist infrastucture to grow. Already we see large groups of the terrorists supporters protestesting in every country (so we know they are already in place), they openly protest. Maybe by taking out some of the key players (such as Iran) we could take some steam out of the players engines.
Fail to act dooms you and your children to die or become slaves.
On another note, I was watching A group of Black Muslims (in the USA)on TV this morning. The speaker spoke about the white devils enslavement of the Black Muslims. (in truth, slavery was in the USA for about 100 years), I wanted to tell him that the America slavey ended about 150 years ago and that slavery still exists today and is practiced mainly by Muslims in Africa and th Middle East. I wanted to Inform him of Dakur and the treatment Black Muslims are receiving at the hands of the Arab Muslims. He proceeded to claim every invention and medical discovery came about because of Black Muslims, I could see he had tunnel vision and obvioulsy had not studied history. He then went on to advocate that The Black Muslims in the USA should be "resisting the will of the white devils" (sounded like a call to arms to me). As he spoke, a group of six men behind him would chant "you tell them" "right on" "Muslims have power".
I am beginning to believe whole heartedly that all Muslims are deranged and violent. Islam must be a fatal disease that destroys your mind and makes you insane.
While the focus of the worlds attention is on the Muslims in the Middle East, We have homegrown Muslims to also be wary of. A world war in a reality today and it is indeed a world war. We must rid the world of the evil text called the Qu'ran.
One well=placed Electro Magnetivc Pulse Weapon detonated over Iran should take care of this country's capacity to deploy nukes for quite some time.
Please, everyone, get this message to the the US government before we get stuck having to invade the place or who knows what else.
