I've Been Thinking:

The AP reported yesterday that Iran was secretly using a new and different method of enriching uranium.

Countries must openly declare how they are enriching uranium.
Not to declare is a violation of international treaties and accords.
The International Atomic Energy Agency must be informed about all methods being used to enrich uranium and the IAEA was given no notice by Iran.

The Iranians were attempting to convert spent reactor to make it usable and then enrich it. Iran discovered that part of the waste in the reactor is uranium. The idea is to harvest what they can from the reactor, enrich it and then, hopefully, use it in a reactor. It is like recycling.

At the same time that this story was breaking another enormously important event was taking place in the region.

The Syrians started dismantling their border posts on the Iraqi border.
The Syrians also cut their diplomatic relations with Iraq.
The Syrians did this in order to make a point about the US special ops raid into their country.

The Middle East is hot and happening right now.
