Iranians Admit Receiving Nuclear Warhead Blueprint from Disgraced Pakistani Expert
(Guardian-UK) Ian Traynor - Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, told diplomats that his inspectors had recently obtained documents from Tehran showing that the Iranians had been given various instructions on processing uranium hexafluoride gas and casting and enriching uranium. These had been obtained via the disgraced Pakistani scientist, Abdul Qadeer Khan. Informed diplomats said the blueprint for casting uranium was required in making the core of a nuclear warhead, although that alone was not enough for the manufacture of a weapon.
