Report: Iran building new clandestine nuclear plant
Source: Associated Press

Iranian resistance group says Tehran constructing secret, new underground military nuclear facility near its Natanz uranium enrichment plant; claim not verified

<snip>

"An Iranian resistance group claimed Thursday that Tehran was constructing a secret, new underground military nuclear facility near its Natanz uranium enrichment plant.

The claim, made by the National Council of Resistance of Iran at a Paris news conference, could not be independently verified.

The group said it has passed its information, which it said came from sources inside Iran, to the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, Austria, but so far hasn't received a response.

The opposition group said the site is 5 kilometers (3 miles) south of the Natanz plant, located under a mountain called Siah Kooh, which it said would help protect it from any air strike."

He's got to think of something quick after someone blew the whistle on his Nukes.
May he fail hugely!

5. *UCK IT. Go ahead and have your World War IV, you scum of humanity.
These days I'm so wishing for a resumption of French Revolution justice. At what point does the citizenry or military say, "ENOUGH," and storm the WH?

9. So... I just want to make sure I get this
A resistance group outside Iran received information from an undisclosed third party of an unverifiable military nuclear base, and then passed this on at a news conference, without independent confirmation rather than, I dunno, contacting the IAEA about it.

Oh yeah, I believe them. With every grain of my heart and soul. Who would lie about such a thing?

26. Hey its "located under a mountain called Siah Kooh"
And on the top of that mountain lives the Wicked Witch and she has a shitload of flying monkeys. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Jesus X Fucking Christ. They don't even bother anymore. They are just phoning this bullshit in.
