Not Iran's Week

First this, now I'm just getting this:

Iran: Nuclear Detonator Sites Found - Opposition Group
Stratfor Today »-->September 24, 2009
Two Iranian detonator-development sites, instrumental in the production cycle of weaponized plutonium, have been located, Reuters reported Sept. 24, citing the National Council of Resistance of Iran. A command and research center has been located in eastern Tehran; a site in the village of Sanjarian manufactures components for the systems. The council said it gathered the information — which was given to the International Atomic Energy Agency — from dozens of sources; it could not be independently verified.

The regime is weak and if the international community somehow got overwhelming leverage over the mullahs, it could only help the reformists' cause. My bet is that these sites weren't just found, but somebody sympathetic to the reformers decided to talk.
