Last week, the Associated Press reported that The International Atomic Energy Agency’s chief inspector compared his agency’s recent efforts to monitor Iran’s nuclear program to flying through dense clouds.
The AP noted that since February, the IAEA “has been unable to access surveillance footage of Iranian nuclear sites” and that “physical inspections of Iran’s nuclear facilities have also been problematic.”
The inspection challenges are especially troubling given they are occurring at the same time Iran has been accelerating its nuclear enrichment capabilities.
Just this August, the IAEA reported that Iran added a second centrifuge now enriching up to 60% purity. Weapons-grade is around 90%.
Friend of Israel...Iran remains Israel and America’s greatest long-term threat in the Middle East. In addition to the growing dangers from Iran’s nuclear efforts:
The regime continues to call for Israel’s destruction.
They continue to conduct ballistic missile tests.
They continue to fund and arm terrorist proxies throughout the Middle East.
America needs a comprehensive policy—closely coordinated with our regional allies—to permanently prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and address the regime's ballistic missile program, terrorism and regional aggression.
