Iran Worried U.S. Might Be Building 8,500th Nuclear Weapon

TEHRAN—Amidst mounting geopolitical tensions, Iranian officials said
Wednesday they were increasingly concerned about the United States of
America's uranium-enrichment program, fearing the Western nation may
soon be capable of producing its 8,500th nuclear weapon. "Our
intelligence estimates indicate that, if it is allowed to progress
with its aggressive nuclear program, the United States may soon
possess its 8,500th atomic weapon capable of reaching Iran," said
Iranian foreign minister Ali Akbar Salehi, adding that Americans have
the fuel, the facilities, and "everything they need" to manufacture
even more weapons-grade fissile material. "Obviously, the prospect of
this happening is very distressing to Iran and all countries like
Iran. After all, the United States is a volatile nation that's proven
it needs little provocation to attack anyone anywhere in the world
whom it perceives to be a threat." Iranian intelligence experts also
warned of the very real, and very frightening, possibility of the U.S.
providing weapons and resources to a rogue third-party state such as
Israel.
