PITTSBURGH, Sept. 25 -- The government of Iran has told the International Atomic Energy Agency that it is building a previously undisclosed uranium enrichment plant for making fuel, the nuclear watchdog agency said Friday.

President Obama will call attention to the existence of the underground facility in an early-morning statement to reporters here before the opening of the G-20 economic summit, and will say that Western intelligence agencies have been tracking the facility for years. U.S. officials said Obama decided to disclose the program's existence after learning that Iran had become aware that it was no longer a secret.

Shock! Surprise! Blind sided!

I was chatting with my 19 year old and this gloom and doom story came across the TV and she said, dead pan "This is news? I thought we knew this some time ago?"

This situation is shaping up much like the preview to the Iraq war.

We keep getting these unsubstatiated warnings from here there and everywhere.

Remember when it was rumored that Iraq had WMD's and Clinton swore to it? Then Bush went in and they called Bush a liar?

I surely hope we arent being set up again.

Well, to be fair, I am the only one calling this a 'bomb factory'. Everyone else is calling it what it really is; a nuclear material processing FACILITY, not a factory.

Secret? NOT! My goodness there have been aerial shots showing the construction of this facility for at least 7 years on the internet!

Seriously, Larry... clam down. It will all be okay. Obama is rapidly working to set an example by disposing of our nuclear arsenal and the world will be soon to follow.

You're right. It's like oil. Better to just use theirs than our own. What was I thinking?

Ah-ha... "Nucluar Material Processing Facility" is not a "Bomb Factory". I'm quite sure they're only processing the nucular material to get fuel for the reactors within their peaceful power plants, which are, no doubt, up to the NRC's high standards.

My faith in humanity - particularly, Iran and it's leadership - is restored.

Whew. You had me all jaded for a minute there.
