“Some of Iran’s Enriched Uranium Survived Attacks, Israeli Official Says,” NYT, 7-10-25.  This is important.  The NYT is willing to publish as fact that some of Iran’s enriched uranium survived the U.S attacks, but with that standard it can’t shy away from the same official reporting (for the first time by the Times) that Iran was racing to build a nuclear bomb.  Here are pertinent parts of the story so you can see for yourself.  (and now let’s see in later reporting if the NYT says that Iran had/has a nuclear weapons program!).

“The senior official also said that Israel had begun moving toward military action against Iran late last year after seeing what the official described as a race to build a bomb as part of a secret Iranian project. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the information. The official said Israeli intelligence picked up the nuclear weapons activity soon after the Israeli Air Force killed Hassan Nasrallah, the longtime leader of Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militia in Lebanon. That observation prompted the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to prepare for an attack with or without U.S. help. … Western intelligence officials confirmed the Israeli assessment, saying that they believed much of the stockpile was buried under rubble in Iran’s nuclear laboratory at Isfahan and potentially other sites. One of the officials concurred that the United States or Israel would know if the Iranians tried to retrieve the enriched uranium. Such a move, the official said, would surely invite a renewed Israeli bombing attack. Israel, the United States and now a growing number of outside experts agree that all of Iran’s working centrifuges at Natanz and Fordo — about 18,000 machines, which spin at supersonic speeds — were damaged or destroyed, probably beyond repair. The question they are now examining is how long it would take the Iranians to rebuild some or all of that capability, especially after the top scientists in their nuclear program were targeted and killed. … On one point — whether Iran moved a large part of its stockpile of 60 percent enriched uranium just before the American strike in the early morning of June 22 in Tehran — the Israeli assessment differs from the conclusion of Rafael Grossi, the secretary general of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Mr. Grossi has said he believes that much of the stockpile that was stored at Isfahan was transferred from the site before Israeli and American weapons struck. The senior Israeli official contends that nothing was moved. The storage site at Isfahan, the official said, was too deep for even the most powerful American weapons to destroy. … But any effort to dig the fuel out from the rubble of Isfahan may be hard to hide from satellite surveillance. The Israeli official said he believed some additional stockpiles are still at Fordo and Natanz, the two major enrichment sites where the fuel is produced. Both were struck by the bunker-busting bombs, and Israel has assessed that recovering those supplies would be too difficult.”

“UK Parliament warns of rising Iranian threat in new intelligence report,” Iran International, 7-10-25.  “The UK Parliament’s Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) released a report on Thursday morning warning that Iran poses one of the gravest state-based threats to British national security, on par with adversaries like Russia and China. The report highlights Tehran’s escalating willingness to carry out assassinations, espionage, and cyber attacks within the United Kingdom, and calls for a fundamental shift in British strategy toward the Islamic Republic. The 260-page report draws on classified intelligence and interviews with senior officials across MI5, MI6, GCHQ, the Cabinet Office, and the Home Office. It paints a detailed picture of Iran’s evolving threat posture, concluding that the Tehran “is a pragmatic actor, often driven more by opportunism than ideology,” and increasingly capable of projecting that pragmatism into hostile activity on British soil. “The Iranian regime’s fundamental objective is to ensure the survival and security of the Islamic Republic,” the ISC said. “It has an acute historic sense of vulnerability. This shapes, directly or indirectly, its actions.” Since January 2022, there have been at least 15 attempts at murder or kidnap against British nationals or UK-based individuals, according to the report. Tehran’s embassy in London issued a statement expressing “its strong protest and categorical rejection of the baseless, politically motivated and hostile claims,” denying any acts of violence, espionage or cyber attacks on UK soil. British intelligence chief Ken McCallum, head of MI5, said last year: “Iranian state actors make extensive use of criminals as proxies—from international drug traffickers to low-level crooks.” These operations, aimed primarily at dissidents and critics of the Islamic Republic, mirror tactics Iran has employed across the globe in continents including Africa, Asia and Europe.”
