Iran’s Nuclear Enrichment

Austin Tang — Mon, 23 Jun 2025 17:57:40 +0000

By Gordon Edwards, Ph.D., President, Canadian Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility; Board of Directors, Project Save the World

There is a lot of confusion about uranium enrichment in Iran.

In natural uranium, only 7 atoms out of 1000 are chain-reacting uranium-235. The other 993 atoms are, for the most part, uranium-238 atoms – not a chain-reacting material.

Uranium enrichment refers to any technology that increases the percentage of the chain-reacting U-235 beyond the 0.7% level (i.e. natural uranium). But there is a good deal of misinformation and/or misunderstanding about enriched uranium in the media recently.

Nuclear Explosions

It is often reported that 90% uranium enrichment is “needed” to have a nuclear weapon. This is not true. The Hiroshima bombs had only 80% enrichment. Iran has a good deal of 60% enriched uranium, and you can make a bomb from 60% enriched uranium — it would be bulkier than a bomb with 90% enrichment and therefore harder to deliver, but not so very much harder.

Also, the mechanism needed for making a uranium bomb is very much easier than what is needed for a plutonium bomb. It can be done with a lot less effort and taking very little time. It’s called a “gun-type” atomic bomb rather than an “implosion-type” atomic bomb.

Gordon Edwards

The gun-type bomb just fires one chunk of uranium into another chunk (the target) so that the two chunks add up to more than a “critical mass”. It is so simple it cannot possibly fail – as a result they never had to test this type of bomb before using it. They dropped it on the city of Hiroshima with no testing. There is a need for a precision timed “neutron source” but that is very old technology that has been well known for ages.

The implosion-type bomb is much more sophisticated, requiring a perfectly spherical

PROTECTING THE NATION & INFRASTRUCTURE IN CYBERSPACE LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE U.S. ARMY CYBER COMMAND

Austin Tang — Thu, 07 Oct 2021 19:41:25 +0000

Listen to “PROTECTING THE NATION & INFRASTRUCTURE IN CYBERSPACE LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ROLE OF THE U.S. ARMY CYBER COMMAND” on Spreaker.

The battles of the future will be fought in cyberspace, one of the most critical and ever-evolving areas of our nation’s defense, with threats facing the country at any hour from around the world. A single breach can quickly impact our daily lives.
Soldiers from the U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) serve at the forefront of this 24/7 operation against cyber threats, defending Army networks, securing Army weapons platforms, protecting critical infrastructure, and obstructing adversaries to protect the nation.
Established in October of 2010, ARCYBER organizes, trains, educates, mans, equips, funds, administers, deploys, and sustains Army cyber forces to conduct cyberspace operations. Just like traditional combat, military operations in cyberspace require intelligence, planning, and the leadership of dedicated people.
ARCYBER is made up of elite warriors – approximately 6,500 Soldiers and 10,000 civilian employees and contract personnel – who provide full-spectrum cyber capabilities in cyber operations and cyber and electronic warfare:
• Cyber Operations Officers are responsible for integrated and synchronized defensive and offensive cyberspace operations by targeting hostile enemy activities and capabilities.
• Cyber Operations Specialists defend the Army’s crucial and complex weapons systems, which include satellites, navigation, and aviation systems against both foreign and domestic cyber threats.
• Cyber and Electronic Warfare Officers conduct and coordinate electronic attacks, facilitate electronic protection, and provide electronic warfare support.
• Cyber and Electronic Warfare Specialists plan and execute electronic warfare operations, using electromagnetic and directed energy to defeat the enemy’s electronic systems.
On Tuesday, October 5th, join Chief Officer Mark Lopez to learn more about the cyber force in the U.S. Army’s operations. He will also explain how the Army is one of the few places where talented technical experts can put their skills to the test against global adversaries, going toe-to-toe daily with malicious hackers.

That Nagasaki Be the Last Use of a Nuclear Weapon

Austin Tang — Sun, 01 Nov 2020 18:45:49 +0000

That nuclear weapons never be used again, Oh God, bless and guide us.

To eliminate these devices, the apex of creative evil, and all devices of massive indiscriminate death, please guide us

Each of us came into this world responding to our mother’s love

Each came seeking family and love

Each of us became identified with nation, race, gender, religion, and forgot we are one human family and every person is as precious as we are

But still in the stillness in our hearts remains a light of the soul, seeking, resonating and longing for that love that brought us here into this world

That love awakens and informs our universal humanity and awakens hearts without borders

Intelligence has given us insights into the wondrous secrets of matter, energy, space and time

Fear, ignorance, arrogance, pride, hatred and differences have led us to use these insights to create devices of incomprehensible power to inflict indescribable horrific

suffering

Please, Dear Lord of All, Creator of every life, every heartbeat, every moment, every leaf, blade of grass, every one of us, and universes and galaxies beyond counting,

Glorious Source of Love and Life, forgive us for forgetting You and Your blessings

Friend within all friendship, Love within all loves, Life within all lives, witness of all and everything, bless us with the wisdom that comes from compassion such that we will skillfully eliminate these devices of death and use the gift of intelligence to serve to heal, sustain, harmonize, understand, and glorify You, our humanity, and honor Your creation

To end the suffering of poverty, to protect nature, to love one another, remove the ignorance from our hearts

Grant us hearts of gratitude, courage, and love such that we will not falter in bringing peace, justice, beauty, and unity to Your human family

Help us eliminate these devices of death and the motives from which we create them

Please guide us in beautiful ways of peace such that we can be witnesses of Your Goodness

Guide us with compassion, kindness and love that we might become fully human.

All praises are Yours.

Amen.

Jonathan Granoff, President Global Security Institute and Ambassador for Peace, Security and Nuclear Disarmament of the Parliament of the World’s Religions and Representative to the UN of the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates
