Iran, Syria and nuclear weapons
The guardian

Last December the Israeli deputy ambassador to the UN, Daniel Carmon, was interviewed by the BBC about the Iranian uranium enrichment project. He said: "The americans and British made nuclear weapons with 20 centrifuges: imagine what the Iranians can do with 3,000." In fact, neither the US nor Britain used centrifuges to enrich uranium for their early nuclear weapons. The US primarily used gaseous diffusion in the Manhattan Project during the second world war, while Britain did the same in the early 1950s.

"The Americans and British made nuclear weapons with 20 centrifuges: imagine what the Iranians can do with 3,000."

The answer is simple and is 150 nuclear weapons more ...

Iran and Syrie working together to build their nuclear weapons, let me laugh. This is pure propaganda aiming to change the public opinon like the antrax and other lies we heard when they began Iraq war.

This is a sheer lie. The US and the British did not use centrifuges - 20, or 200,000. They used the membrane diffusion method. In fact, the US is still the only country that uses the method.

These are all lies to show that Iran's 3000 centrifuges are very dangerous. They are not. Not only are they not efficient, but also safeguarded by the International Atomic Energy Agency. There is no way that Iran can use them for making bombs, so long as they are safeguarded.

In the issue next to the Guardian issue in which this claim was made, the lies of this claim was completwely exposed. Israel will do anything to provoke an attack on Iran.
