Obama’s farewell gift to Iran: 130 tons of Uranium

[alarabi]

American Media revealed that President Barack Obama presented a final gift to Iran. He agreed before the end of his mandate to secretly provide Tehran with 130 tons of Uranium, which can be used as fuel for a nuclear reactor or as the heart of an atomic bomb.

According to the Daily Wire, US diplomats stated that Iran is due to receive a huge shipment of natural Uranium from Russia to compensate it for exporting tons of reactor coolant. This was approved by the Obama administration and other governments seeking to keep Tehran committed to the nuclear pact.

The two senior diplomats, who preferred to remain anonymous, declared that the shipment was approved by the US and five other world powers that negotiated the nuclear deal. Meanwhile, Iran foresees the delivery of 116 metric tons (nearly 130 tons) of natural uranium.

They added that they need the approval of the UN Security Council, nevertheless: “It will only be a formality, considering that five of those powers are permanent Security Council members.”

In the current deal, Iran compensated Russia with roughly 40 metric tons (44 tons) of heavy water; Iran also sent 30 tons of other metric, to the United States and Oman, according to the nuclear agreement between Iran and the six-party that took place at the beginning of July of the past year.

The Daily Wire reported that the Diplomats stated that any natural Uranium going to Iran would be under strict surveillance by the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency for 25 years after the deal went through.

The newspaper quoted David Albright of the Institute of Science and International Security saying that the Uranium shipment could be enriched to build over 10 simple nuclear bombs, depending on the efficiency of the enrichment process and the design of the nuclear weapon.

I won't be surprised if I see Barack Hussein Obama after 20th of this month in a Hussiniah beating himself till he bleeds like safavids usually do.
The great Satan at his finest.

Obama is a real dost of the iranis. He put the rest of us at risk for the ayatollahs. Iran is an unpredictable country, you never know how they are going to respond. Their navy likes to chase American super carriers with rubber dinghies, just image how they will act if they have weapons less than 50 years old.

Obama bowed to our hegemony. Well done Obomber
He would bend over even more and more if he remained as president of united SNAKES.

Being a Safavid and beating yourself is way better than being a Wahabi and detonating yourself in the marketplace to kill the women and children.

You can sign in with your real account next time instead of faking tens accounts to troll threads that expose your terrorist khamenei.

Go and count your casualties in Yemen. I have posted a new video in Yemen's section.

Iran is a rational actor, just like any other nation state. Moreover, what we use to defend our country (especially when talking about conventional weapons) has nothing to do with you. Only people who pretend otherwise are neocons.

Frankly I don't know what you're worried about, Iran was never hostile towards India.

Not only this , Iran has negotiated and is about to join ITER .. plus negotiations and researches over Arrak reactor almost have been finalized .. not to mention that we have produced tens tons of heavy water and has exported them .. and now we have access to natural uranium ... and these are not gifts , Iran is a signatory of NPT and has an absolute right to work and develop its peaceful nuclear program ... any problem?

You first need to join NPT and disarm your nuclear arsenal then come over and preach us about nuclear stuff and putting the rest of us at risk .. the very same USA is the only country that has ever used nukes against civilians ... so saying Iran is an unpredictable country is a little bit laughable ... Iran just tries to get its rights ...

Abubark AlBigdaddy and Al Saudi BinFatty is very worried "Iran is a unpredictable country" "iranians drink the blood of children" "Iran made the dinosours extinct" "Hitler was actually doing as instructed by Iranian shah" (quite possibly)... jesus christ..

I bet this mandate will also "fail" as soon as trump is in business.

Yea man,

Iran, Dingy, New Weapons, American Super Drones.

Allahoakbar..

Iran = Your original white slave master. The pale english man only came in after we left. You indian sellout, trump shoes shiner, if Gandhi/Bhagat Sing/Jinnah/Ashoka/Mughals/SherazDollah were alive, they would all spit in your general direction.

Even i am surprised with his/her reaction to Iran...Usually most of the Hindu Indian has a soft corner towards Iranian people...

130 tons
How many nuclear warheads does that amount to (assuming it isn't enriched uranium)?

130 tons
How many nuclear warheads does that amount to (assuming it isn't enriched uranium)?

Uranium occurs in two predominant isotopes: 238 & 235. The isotope required to initiate fission chain reactions (i.e. in nuclear weapons) is U-235, which makes up approximately 0.7% of naturally-occurring uranium. Assuming that the 130 tons of material isn't enriched (and reflects natural isotope composition), we can expect (130 * 0.007) = 0.91 tons or 910 kg of so-called "weapons grade" material to be potentially refined.

A Fat-Man-type fission bomb requires a 56 kg core and roughly 85% purity (in terms of U-235). This implies that each "warhead" would require a minimum of (56)(0.85) = 48 kg of highly-enriched U-235.

910/48 would yield roughly NINETEEN 20-kiloton fission warheads.

**Of course, this assumes that Iran has the infrastructure in place to effectively and quickly enrich uranium-235, which requires gas tubes and associated centrifuges.**

What's with all the USA flags on your profile?

Is the USA the same country that has been persecuting Iran for the last few decades?
