Joe Cirincione Vice-Chair of the Center for International Policy Board of Directors, was just on MSNBC and stated that the withdrawal of the NPT would be something Iran would do if they intend to move forward with developing a nuclear bomb. His advice for the United States government: "Find an off-ramp, quickly".
The IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi told the U.N. Security Counsel over the weekend, "it looks like Iran has, in fact, moved some of their highly rich uranium gas out of the facilities they were in. The satellite imagery showed rows and rows of trucks moving into some of these facilities before the airstrikes, apparently moving some of this gas. Nobody knows where it is.
According to Joe Cirincione, "That gas could be fed into centrifuges at other sites, perhaps unknown sites, and within five days, they could convert that material into one bomb, and within two weeks they might be able to build ten bombs. They may have already done it. Iran might have constructed the one weapon that they know could stop the U.S. and Israel from attacking it again."
