The Plot Thickens



Right: Atomic structure of uranium.

An Iranian nuclear scientist has defected to Israel. Read all about it in the Jerusalem Post.

Meanwhile, in Zimbabwe, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is engaged in discussions with President Mugabe to obtain uranium for much-needed economic assistance, including housing units, an oil refinery, tractor assembly plant, and beef cannery.

UPDATE: A Pajamas Media article by Ryan Mauro reports that the Iranians have run into technical difficulties enriching uranium with their centrifuges, and are trying to work out deals with Venezuela and Bolivia to scout out those countries for uranium deposits.
