Iran building two more atomic plants

The New York Times reported on Saturday that Iran is starting work on two additional atomic sites, which will be built inside mountains to protect them from attack (Hat Tip: Memeorandum). Nuclear inspectors are searching for the sites.
In an interview with the Iranian Student News Agency, the official, Ali Akbar Salehi, head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, said President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had ordered work to begin soon on two new plants. The plants, he said, “will be built inside mountains,” presumably to protect them from attacks.

“God willing,” Mr. Salehi was quoted as saying, “we may start the construction of two new enrichment sites” in the Iranian new year, which began March 21.

The revelation that inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog, now believe that there may be two new sites comes at a crucial moment in the White House’s attempts to impose tough new sanctions against Iran.
Iran has an interest in spreading out its nuclear program to make it more difficult to destroy that program. The West really doesn't know what Iran has. Russia and China are still unwilling to go along with sanctions against Iran.

What could go wrong?

The Obama Administration appears more focused on inflicting corporal punishment on Netanyahu's behind than it is with addressing a solution to Iran's growing nuclear program.

What could go wrong indeed

Achmadinnerjacket is a "12'er" Shiite... he is LOOKING to bring Armageddon on to fulfill prophecy. He would be happy if Israel nuked them. - Alas PC rules forbid us from taking someone's religion into account when considering their actions/desires. Personally I think we should give Dinner Jacket what he wants, in spades.
