Satellite from Israel indicates some “unusual activity” at Iran’s nuclear plant in Fordow, adding fuel to the suspicions of Tehran’s ongoing pursuits of nuke weaponry development.
The satellite imagery shows activities that haven’t been seen in months.
For instance, buses and large vehicles have been picked up moving in and out of the facility, driving toward newly constructed buildings that are believed to be research and development labs.

From i24 News:
Israeli satellite company iSi released several photos on Thursday indicating ‘unusual activity’ at a nuclear research facility in Iran from April 29, following weeks of speculation that US President Donald Trump might decide to leave the nuclear deal.
The satellite images show a number of activities at the Fordow nuclear research plant that haven’t been detected in recent months, such as a large presence of buses and vehicles, as well as new large buildings which iSi believe are for R&D (research and development) and assembly.
One of the satellite images shows an opened gate to the facility’s uranium enrichment tunnels, which the iSi says it has not observed in recent months.
However, on February 1, the spokesman for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), Behrouz Kamalvandi, said that “we are at the stage of installing some equipment and Russian experts will arrive in Iran on Sunday to begin the installation work.”
On the same day AP quoted Russia’s RIA Novosti news agency as saying that the Russians were set to arrive at the Fordow nuclear facility later that week.Tensions over the Iran deal culminated this week when Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that Mossad has gathered intelligence which indicates that Iran is cheating on the deal.Netanyahu delivered a PowerPoint presentation, displaying thousands of original “incriminating” files part of half a ton of material from an archive of “Project Amad,” the name he said was given to “Iran’s comprehensive program to design, test and build nuclear weapons.”
“After signing the nuclear deal in 2015, Iran intensified its efforts to hide its secret files,” he argued.He blasted Iran for denying the existence of its nuclear program to the IAEA and for continuing to expand it after the 2015 JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action), the formal name for the agreement with Iran.
On Thursday, Reuters reported that US President Donald Trump has essentially “all but decided” to pull the US out of the accord, according to three people familiar with the White House’s thinking.
Trump has pilloried the agreement designed to curb Iran’s nuclear program as “insane” and “ridiculous” and called for fresh measures to counter Iran’s ballistic missile program and support for militant groups across the Middle East.If Trump decides to withdraw from the accord, the ‘waivers’ that were implemented to suspend US sanctions on Iran will be reinstated, which in turn could lead to Iran re-establishing its nuclear arms program, or making life difficult for the US through proxies in countries such as Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen.
Iran has said that it will not remain in the nuclear deal with world powers if the United States decides to quit the accord, a senior adviser to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Thursday.
“If the United States withdraws from the nuclear deal, then we will not stay in it any anymore,” foreign policy adviser Ali Akbar Velayati was quoted as saying by the state television website.
European leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, have been pressing Trump to strengthen rather than abandon the three-year-old deal that took more than a decade to reach.Macron, who met Trump in Washington last week to try to convince him to not walk away, admitted Wednesday he still did not know what decision the US leader would take.

It’s only a matter of time before someone bombs someone. I’d suggest we destroy all of Iran’s nuke facilities before they set one off in a major US city…

Nice clear pictures.
So schedule for 2 cruise missiles to go take the next surveillance pictures.
When the democrats/jihad’s whine just admit it was a mistake done by some one new to the job and say sorry bout that.
Problem solved.

As much as Iran is an evil empire, I’m not going to fall for satellite images as a pretext to war ever again

Greetings!
The images, acquired by the satellite surveillance, may be debatable, and better left to the scrutiny of the intelligence “community”, but the proclamation by the Ayatollah, two days after finalizing the “agreement” 7/16/2015 referring to the so-called “deal”, Khamenei said, “Our policies toward the arrogant government of the United States will not be changed at all”, adding, “the Americans say they stopped Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon … They know it’s not true.“ , should be taken as factual evidence of the ineffectiveness of the, Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, and the necessity for reexamination, post haste.

Israel is a small country. One nuke is all it takes. Everybody knows this, except a sodomite Negro.

Iran is NO match for Israel, it could barely fight Iraq during their war in the 80s.
