British Company Attempts To Sell Black Market Weapons-Grade Uranium To Iran


You've heard Iran say it over and over, folks. Their nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. So then, why are they buying weapons-grade uranium on the black market? And, why the hell is a British company trying to sell it to them?

MI6 probes UK link to nuclear trade with Iran Guardian
A British company has been closed down after being caught in an
apparent attempt to sell black-market weapons-grade uranium to Iran and Sudan

Anti-terrorist officers and MI6 are now investigating a wider
British-based plot allegedly to supply Iran with material for use in a nuclear
weapons programme. One person has already been
charged with attempting to proliferate 'weapons of mass
destruction'.

weapons-grade uranium from the black market in Russia. Investigators believe it
was intended for export to Sudan and on to Iran
