CarolC,

Let us suppose you are correct:

"
- Since the fall of apartheid, South Africa has disclosed most of the information on its nuclear weapons program, and according to the subsequent International Atomic Energy Agency report, South Africa could not have constructed such a device until November 1979, two months after the incident.

- The IAEA reported that all South African nuclear devices had been accounted for when it monitored South Africa's abandonment of it's nuclear programme."



This is proof that the IAEA is wrong in regards to that test- So how can we trust that they are wrong OR right in regards to Iran having fissionable material? Your arguement rests upon the assumption that the IAEA cannot be depended upon for accurate information.
