Iran has now produced roughly enough nuclear material to make, with added purification, a single atom bomb, according to nuclear experts analyzing the latest report from global atomic inspectors.
The figures detailing Iran's progress were contained in a routine update on Wednesday from the International Atomic Energy Agency, which has been conducting inspections of the country's main nuclear plant at Natanz. The report concluded that as of early this month, Iran had made 630 kilograms, or about 1,390 pounds, of low-enriched uranium.
But don't worry, this is just "a symbolic step" to getting nuclear-tipped missiles:
Several experts said that was enough for a bomb, but they cautioned that the milestone was mostly symbolic, because Iran would have to take additional steps.
Like the step of learning how to make that material. And the step to get the Uranium to reach this step. And the step that provided them the ability to create the infrastructure to reach this step. And the step of running their enrichment long enough to reach this step.
What's the saying? A journey begins with the first step? And this isn't even their first step.
Don't be fools arguing over the significance of this step or that step. Focus on the progress made on the journey and just exactly what the destination of that journey is.
Iran's mullahs are gleefully walking toward the gates of Hell and I see precious little will to stop them.
