to what extend we should enrich the uranium in order to get nuclear weapons?
462674
Typically uranium enrichment for weapons grade U235 is about 80-90%.

hooraah!! Send in the nukes!

THE U.S. has more nukes than we know what to do with.  Any idiotic country that would openly attack us  deserves to die in a nuculear holacost for their stupidity.

Read up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enriched_uranium\n\nEven a 20% enriched uranium is sufficient to create a bomb.  That would be well within the capability of a nominal Iranian process.

with EMBARGO act :Stop our Export-Import relations to america...Build Nuclear and War technology Instalation for be ready if American want attack us cause it...use and love ours product and we have to be a courager for say to them : GO TO HELL with Your AID ...!!

Good job buddy, now the goverment knows you are looking for AK57s.. why dont you ask: how to build a nuclear weapon? next time.. haha

Why should we attack them, except in retaliation?\n\nAnd if we retaliate, especially to a nuke, we should have a bunch of boomers (nuke subs) off their coast and let fly. Turn it into a smoking radioactive hole.\n\nThat should settle the problem, no?\n\nBecause I'm tired of seeing American blood and money freeing ingrates the world over.

they could lend them some WMD... that'll make it a little more interesting

Good idea, nuke them before they nuke us

Nuclear Engineering is by far the way to go.  The demand for nuclear energy is projected to greatly increase in the next ten years.  With countries such as China planning to invest over $50 billion over this same time period the U.S. will have no choice but to begin to follow this trend.  Companies like Westinghouse are designing the next generation power plants and already have a new design passed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.  Our dependence on fossil fuel is too great and nuclear power is the next huge industry.

Enriched uranium is uranium whose uranium-235 content has been increased through the process of isotope separation. Natural uranium consists mostly of the 238U isotope, with about 0.72 % by weight as 235U, the only isotope existing in nature in any appreciable amount that is fissionable by thermal neutrons.\n\nEnriched uranium is a critical component for both civil nuclear power generation and military nuclear weapons. The International Atomic Energy Agency attempts to monitor and control enriched uranium supplies and processes in its efforts to ensure nuclear power generation safety and curb nuclear weapons proliferation.\n\nDuring the Manhattan Project enriched uranium was given the codename oralloy, a shortened version of Oak Ridge alloy, after the plant where the uranium was enriched. The term oralloy is still occasionally used to refer to enriched uranium.\n\nThe 238U remaining after enrichment is known as depleted uranium (DU), and is considerably less radioactive than even natural uranium, though still extremely dense. It is useful for armor, armor penetrating weapons and other material density applications.

If the question is about rights then yes... whether not the world will let them is a different story.\n\nIran has every right to enrich uranium for 'energy' purposes because it is a member of the NPT (Nuclear non-proliferation Treaty) and in compliance with the IAEA standards. These guarantee this right as long Iran stays within certain guidelines.\n\nIronically, Bush told India, who has refused to sign the NPT, they could enrich uranium. This creates a very complicated dilemma.\n\nAdditionally, if you examine Iran's history, Iran has no history of aggression but rather of defense. Iran has also held to all regulations of the NPT to include full access to all uranium enrichment sites to all U.N. inspectors.\n\nThere is no evidence to support restricting Iran's right to enrich uranium in order to obtain nuclear energy. Also, keep in mind, Israel has nuclear weapons.\n\nNow with all that said, how do I feel about it? I am not comfortable with Iran having any nuclear capability whatsoever. That is why I fully support Russia's offer to Iran to let them use their nuclear enrichment sites in reaching the targeted material for nuclear power.\n\nThis way, Iran gets nuclear energy but does not have the capability of enriching uranium.\n\nWhy am I uncomfortable with Iran having this capability? It is not because I feel they are a threat. And it is not that I believe Iran would secretly develop nuclear weapons. It is my fear that Iran is too closely related to organizations that want to do us and Israel harm and I am afraid this technology might fall in the wrong hands.

I THINK THAT YOUR COUNTRY'S DIRECTION IN THE NUCLEAR AGE IS DEPENDANT ON HOW THE PROGRAM IS BASED AND IMPLIMENTED. HOW IT CAN BE GUIDED AND MONITORED FOR SAFETY VIOLATION'S AND UPGRADES. I DO NOT WANT FOR YOUR COUNTRY TO GET UPSET AT CURRENT EVENT'S AND STRIKE ONE OF IT'S ENEMY'S WITH A NUCLEAR WEAPON JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE CAPABILITY.

No. We should allow a hostile country to develop any weapon they want, so they can attack us later on. Then we can sit back and bitch and moan about how Bush screwed it up. We should wait for the inneffectual UN to pass 20+ resolutions over the next 10-20 years. Then once they have the bomb and have attacked us we can be blamed for it, and rebuild their country better than it was before. All while they burn our flag and chant, "Death to America."

I admire your cander for asking such a question, you must be a glutton for punishment!!!! To achieve what you are purposing you would first have to deport all citizens who are from the middle east from the countries who are going to strike. Then after all this upheaval you would need to organise a massive multinational nuclear strike. This is a massive up taking and quite frankly there are far,far too many innocent non terrorists who will be annihilated! Stupid proposal!!!!!

We all know that if they have the nuclear tech the bomb will be used to destroy many people....if they are really concerned  about energy (especially electrical) solar energy will be great for that part of the world...I am sure the U.S.A will help in this project.

I think a country floating on oil does not need to spend millions on nuclear power.\n\nI think the last countries that need to enrich uranium are countries with suicide bombers.\n\nI think things are getting out of control, seriously.
