Iran: We’ve Enriched Uranium. Iran: No We Haven’t.

Yeah, so so this is going on:

Iran’s Interior Ministry denied a report Friday quoting the minister as saying Iran has produced 100 kilograms (220 pounds) of enriched uranium. The ministry said he was misquoted. The semiofficial ISNA news agency reported that the minister, Mostafa Pourmohammadi, also said Iran now has 3,000 hooked-up centrifuges actively enriching uranium. The Interior Ministry later issued a statement denying Pourmohammadi made the comments reported by ISNA. The minister “only spoke about Iran’s nuclear achievements and he did not mention amount of enriched uranium and the number of installed centrifuges,” said the statement, carried on the Web site of the state broadcasting company. “The recently published report is denied.”

Apparently when they said uranium, they meant “puppies”. And when they said “enriched”, they meant “petting”. They’re not nuclear-weapon developing anti-Semitic genocidal lunatics. They’re puppy petters. As opposed to the Palestinians, who kill puppies. Because Sunnis and Shiites are different, you understand?
