VIENNA, Austria (Reuters) -- The nuclear watchdog agency of the United Nations has found traces of arms-grade enriched uranium at a second site in Iran, a month before a U.N. deadline for Tehran to prove it has no secret atomic weapons program, diplomats said Thursday.

One diplomat told Reuters the discovery could support Tehran's explanation that the discovery of highly enriched uranium at a previous site in Iran was due to contamination from imported components.

Does Bush have time to start another war befor next November?

But several other diplomats said it could support the U.S. theory that Iran has been secretly purifying uranium for use in a nuclear explosive device -- a charge Tehran denies.

Oh yeah, just to make it more interesting:

Homeland Security agents have arrested an Iranian man in Florida on charges that he attempted to smuggle $750,000 worth of restricted F-14 fighter aircraft parts out of the United States for use by the Iranian military, according to officials and court documents.

F-14 parts are not of the same concern as weapons grade uranium, but it's still interesting.

I don't understand why Iran can't make nuclear arms. The U.S. is an agressor and they have nuclear arms. Why can't Iran? If we invade, it'll be another major mistake.

How about we just leave Iran alone? We should stop poking beehives with sitcks.
