More Reactors For Iran
By Micah Halpern

Wednesday January 18, 2006

I've Been Thinking:

Iran has just allocated $250 million for 2 new nuclear reactors.
For nuclear reactors, $250,000,000 is not nearly enough.

The cost of a new reactor is over $1 billion. That is the price the Russians put up to sponsor Iran's first nuclear reactor.

The new reactors are scheduled to be located in southern Iran in the provinces of Khuzestan and Bushehr.
All this is happening despite the fact that the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council are getting closer to agreeing on the dangers Iran is presenting through her nuclear energy program.

Despite their enormous investment in Iran, even Russia is beginning to view Iran as a danger because the Iranians are non co-operative.
The lone holdout is China.
China is heavily dependent on Iranian oil.
