Iran suspected of trying to scrub Parchin's nuclear residue
Three days ago, the IAEA reported unusual activity at Iran's Parchin military base outside Tehran, the base where it has long been suspected that Iran was developing nuclear weapons. As part of Iran's offer to renew talks with the P-5+1 earlier this week, it agreed to allow IAEA inspectors into Parchin. Now, satellite photographs show what's going on at Parchin: In preparation for an IAEA visit, Iran is trying to scrub the place clean... of nuclear waste. Two of the diplomats told The Associated Press that those traces could have come from what they said was the testing of a small neutron trigger used to set off a nuclear explosion. A third diplomat could not confirm that, but says any testing of a so-called neutron initiator at the site could only be in the context of trying to develop nuclear arms.Oy.... Now how will the 'international community' continue to make excuses?
...
The diplomatic account came only a day after the ISNA news agency reported that Iran indicated that it would give the UN nuclear watchdog access to the Parchin complex.
An International Atomic Energy Agency report last year said that Iran had built a large containment chamber at Parchin, southeast of Tehran, to conduct explosives tests that are "strong indicators" of efforts to develop an atom bomb.

Hey Barack: If Iran looks like a duck, walks like a duck and smells like a duck... what exactly don't you get? (14 cartoons)
As the evidence that Iran is close to a nuclear weapon mounts, President Obama continues to insist that sanctions and diplomacy will work to stop them. By the time he figures out the truth the world will hopefully not be facing a mushroom cloud! (Article includes 14 cartoons)

Iran Ready to Allow IAEA Access to Parchin Military Facility..........once modalities of Iran-IAEA cooperation had been agreed on.
And : There should be a "modality" and a "frame of reference, of what exactly they are looking for, they have to provide the documents and specify exactly where they want to go, (so we can hide it!)
