URANIUM STOCKPILE NOW INADEQUATE TO MAKE BOMB

"... the International Atomic Energy Agency has confirmed that... Iran’s most sensitive nuclear stockpile – uranium refined to a fissile concentration of 20 percent . . . had declined significantly for the first time in four years and was now well below the amount needed for one bomb... Since halting this enrichment under last year’s deal, Iran has diluted some of the material to lower-level uranium and converted some into a less proliferation-sensitive oxide form… Iran lacks the capacity to take the 19.25% enriched uranium up to bomb grade, and there is no evidence that it has solved the many thorny technical problems involved in bomb-making..."

JEWISH HOSPITAL IN TEHRAN

"Dr. Morsadegh, the director of Tehran's only Jewish hospital,… has never thought about leaving the Islamic Republic, for the simple reason that Iran is his home. "I speak English, I pray in Hebrew, but I think in Persian," said Dr. Morsadegh, a surgeon who is also a member of Parliament. "I am Iranian. Iranian-Jewish."… last week the government of President Hassan Rouhani donated $400,000 to the Dr. Sapir Hospital... For more than 50 years it has been a meeting point for Iranian Jews and Muslims and the most prominent Jewish charity in the capital… About 96 percent of patients are Muslim, like most of the hospital's employees… Though the Jewish population of Iran is dwindling — now at about 9,000, according to an official census by the Statistical Center of Iran, though other estimates range to 20,000 — the country has the largest number of Jews in the Middle East after Israel…."
