Russia Sells Iran AVLIS System for Advanced Uranium Enrichment
Russia Sells Iran AVLIS System for Advanced Uranium Enrichment

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

August 28, 2003, 9:31 AM (GMT+02:00)

The Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency – IAEA – put out a disturbing report this week confirming earlier DEBKAfile revelations that traces of uranium enrichment activity were found in samples at Natanz nuclear facility in Iran, 290 km south of Tehran, evidence that Iran was in the process of building a nuclear arsenal.



In issue Number 120, published on August 8, DEBKA-Net-Weekly’s military sources reported exclusively that in the second week of July Russia secretly delivered the components of the AVLIS (atomic vapor laser isotope separator) system aboard unmarked military transports.

snip...
According to the information obtained by DEBKA-Net-Weekly , AVLIS has been installed at two of Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities, Natanz and Moallen Kalayeh. The latter is Iran’s most secluded subterranean nuclear plant, buried under the Albroz Mountains 40 km north of Tehran. In its tall tunnels, Iran carries out its most secret tests.

snip...According to our Moscow sources, Russian military circles as certain that without that AVLIS would not have been consigned to Iran without the okay of President Vladimir Putin. He would have seen the delivery as a means of getting round his promise to President George W. Bush not to send Iran spent nuclear rods to fuel the Bushehr nuclear reactor and a way of compensating Iran for this letdown.

been suckered into the ultimate shell game. While AWOL, I bet he really "ran off to join the circus" and had some ghostwriter pen his term paper - Huckstering 401.

Is this anything like naming the wing of a hospital after the benefactor? Maybe the "cigarette girl" christened the plant by whispering sweet nothings in Russian to Mr. Putin? Oh, Condi, come out Condi! Wanna see the "fat lady" sing?

8. Ok This is driving me crazy! People can't Spell! Look at this Guys&Gals
Bushehr

http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/world/iran/bushehr.htm

The focus of a considerable amount of controversy in the United States, the nuclear facility at Brushehr, Iran is being built under an agreement between the Russian and Iranian governments for $800-million. Although originally intended to be the location of a German-built reactor in the 1970s, the new reactor will be built to Russian designs, though the original reactor buildings exterior appearance will remain essentially the same. There are two reactors at Bushehr, one is in an advanced stage of completion the other has not been worked on for some time and is not currently scheduled to be completed.


Ok so let me get this straight the nuclear facility is AT Brushehr,Iran but the Nuclear reactor is called BUSHEHR!!


OMG!! the dang reactor was started in Reagan Years by the Shah of Iran look at the article
The Bushehr conundrum
I wonder if it was named for Poppy Bush!
