Comments on 3000 Centrifuges

Thanks for a good level headed nerd read. It's a shame that the logic presented in this post wont be exposed when "the news" talks about it.

Western Powers like to wait for a new Moon to begin an airstrike campaign. The sky is at its darkest and aircraft are not profiled by moonlight. Even better wait for a month with fewer hours of daylight to allow for the maximum time of night time operations (like November).
After a night like this, after the air defense and power grids have been reduced, daytime strikes can proceed with increased precision and real time damage assessment.
As it happens, this Friday is a New Moon. In fact the moon will set before night providing a rare moonless night. It also the beginning of a holiday weedend so the markets will be closed on Monday. Not that there would be any reason to freak out over the weekend. Given the 11 1/2 time difference, any breaking news would coincide with our ngihtly news on Friday.
I wouldn't worry though. I made the same observations last year and nothing happened.
What's more since then oil has gone way up as the dollar has declined. And what is more important there seems to be new relationships in the east. Not to mention the tinderbox of Pakistan.
Which brings back to how crazy is crazy.

Here's a bit of audio history on the gas centrifuge, complete with an interview with Zippe himself:

The only way to make sure ANY nuclear program is simply used for power production is total monitoring.

As Jonathan points out, you can derive enough fisile Plotonium from a power reactor simply by lowering it's flux rate. The only way to know is to monitor the reactor.

Also the only way to tell if a centrifuge farm is producing enriched or highly enriched weapons grade Uranium is to monitor it to examine it's configuration or output.

The concentration on centrifuges is simply becuase that's where they are at I suspect. If they had a reactor in place we would not be worrying about what they were spinning out of their centrifuges.

That president of Iran guy was one of the hostage takers.

The hostage takers were on the payroll of the Reagan campaign.

What do you want to bet that el presidente is some sort of plant for the Bushies, and/or the CIA? Very few people in the country like him, he has no real power, but they keep playing him up in the US media.

Correction: At the top of the curve of binding energy is iron, not lead. To use your vernacular: all elements secretly desire to be iron.

Sincerely, a former nuclear physicist

oh man, you're right! And I knew this. I wrote the post too quickly on the way out the door. I'll correct it. Thanks!

Jonathan: No worries. You've probably read it already, but in case you haven't, let me heartally recommend McPhee's "The Curve Of Binding Energy" on this subject, to you and anyone else reading this. The context is a bit dated, but the analysis is right-on, and of course McPhee's writing is always a pleasure.

Fe. I believe Iron is actually the element that everything wants to be, they're just willing to stop at lead, if they're going to be fissioning anyway.

angry, scary nation full of non-Christians—want to build a bomb
Hey, Israel already has the bomb. Or do you mean Israel is not scary because they would never preemptively invade a neighbor?
