Once again, you have to go to foreign press to get anywhere near the truth.
The US media are generally bubbling with excitement, and ignoring the real implications.
I expect the truth is more grave than we're lead to believe:
The UN nuclear inspection agency believes that Iran has "sufficient information" to make a nuclear weapon and had "probably tested" a key
component ... .
In the document quoted by AP, his [Baradei's] inspectors [secretly] report: "The agency… assesses that Iran has sufficient information to be able
to design and produce a workable implosion nuclear device based on HEU [highly enriched uranium] as the fission fuel."
...
Furthermore the annexe said Iranian scientists had engaged in "probable testing" of explosives arranged in a hemisphere, which is how an implosion
type of nuclear warhead is triggered.
There was also evidence, the report says, that Iran had worked on developing a chamber to carry a warhead on top of one of its missiles, "that is
quite likely to be nuclear".
The annexe, entitled Possible Military Dimension of Iran's Nuclear Program, gives details of a top-level meeting in 1984 in which Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei, then president now supreme leader, appears to give the green light for building a bomb, saying: "A nuclear arsenal would serve Iran as a
deterrent in the hands of God's soldiers."
