Seems innocuous, but one wonders why the U.S. rushed an extra aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf region recently. My greatest concern is that, if Russia is planning its attack on America in 2010, they might want to act going into the congressional elections since our political system is distracted during this juncture.

Clinton: Bushehr Plant Not a Problem
Reported: 19:44 PM - Oct/26/10
The United States does not see Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant as a threat, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Tuesday. Responding to a question about Iran's claim that it had begun injecting uranium fuel rods into the core of the nuclear power plant, Clinton told reporters that “our problem is not with their reactor at Bushehr, our problem is with their facilities at places like Natanz and their secret facility at Qom and other places where we believe they are conducting their weapons program.”
According to Iranian reports, the Bushehr plant will begin operating within six months, after all 163 fuel rods have been injected into the plant's core.

Iran Loads Fuel Into Nuclear Reactor

The reactor building at the Bushehr nuclear power plant in southern Iran.
Iranian TV says engineers are starting to insert 163 fuel rods into the country's Bushehr reactor, a step originally set for late August. That was halted after engineers discovered a leak and began repairs. Iran got help from Russia to build the plant; NPR's Michele Kelemen reported in August the US doesn't view Bushehr as a risk:
KELEMEN: State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley took the news calmy, noting that Iran is still facing United Nations sanctions, and the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog will be monitoring the power plant.
Mr. P.J. CROWLEY (Spokesman, State Department): Bushehr is designed to provide electricity to Iran. It is not viewed as a proliferation risk because Russia is providing the needed fuel and taking back the spent nuclear fuel, which is the principal source of potential proliferation.
KELEMEN: Crowley argues that the deal also undercuts Iran's argument that it needs to have its own enrichment capability.
Mr. CROWLEY: This is exactly the kind of model that we and others within the international community have offered to Iran over the years.
