#Iran: There's refining Uranium and there's refining Uranium.

Note this well, dear reader:

IAEA has found that Iran has been enriching Uranium to about 20% U235 - energy grade, for use in reactors only. This is according to an IAEA report from Feb 2010.

This is a far cry from the 80+% that's needed for contemporary nuclear weapons. That last 60% represents a LOT of work - way more than Iran is probably capable of right now considering economic sanctions, inspections, and a very impressive campaign of sabotage. Thus it should come as no surprise that IAEA has found, thus far, no evidence that Iran has been able to enrich uranium much past the 20% U235 point.

Keep this in mind, because facts like this one will become very important in the next few months.
