The march towards nuclear weapons continues in Iran

Iran continues its march towards nuclear weapons. Europe's efforts to egnage Iran and to change their direction on the aquisition of nuclear weapons is falling terribly short.

Iran Begins Installing More Centrifuges

TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran has begun installing 6,000 new centrifuges at its uranium enrichment plant in Natanz, state television quoted President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as saying Tuesday.

Iran already has about 3,000 centrifuges operating in Natanz, and the new announcement is seen as a show of defiance of international demands to halt a nuclear program the United States and its allies say is aimed at building nuclear weapons.

"The president announced the start of the phase of installing 6,000 new centrifuges in Natanz," state television reported.
