Another Puzzle in Iran: Nuclear Fuel Moved
2010-02-27
WASHINGTON -- When Iran was caught last September building a secret, underground nuclear enrichment plant at a military base near the city of Qum, the country's leaders insisted they had no other choice. With its nuclear facilities under constant threat of attack, they said, only a fool would leave them out in the open.

So imagine the surprise of international inspectors almost two weeks ago when they watched as Iran moved nearly its entire stockpile of low-enriched nuclear fuel to an above-ground plant. It was as if, one official noted, a bull's-eye had been painted on it.

Why take such a huge risk?

#2  Iran knows the US won't take advantage of this opportunity and they know that the US will never "green light" an attack from Israel.
Long story, short: They know who they're dealing with.
