IAEA: Iran Has Nuclear Bomb Blueprint

From Bloomberg:

A confidential International Atomic Energy Agency report includes excerpts from an Iranian government document that outlines a key step in making nuclear weapons, a senior State Department official said.

The document is part of mounting evidence in the report to the United Nations' member nations that Iran is working on nuclear weapons, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because diplomatic negotiations are continuing.         

The document describes procedures for reducing and shaping enriched uranium into hemispheres for fitting into the core of an atomic bomb, the official said. ``There's no peaceful explanation for forming these hemispheres for weaponization,'' the official told reporters at a briefing in Washington.
