For power plants, 10% is high. For medical purposes, 20% is enuf. So several highly respected folks in the nuclear bidness assert that refining that high means going for a weapon.

Going for a weapon is one thing. Being about to produce one is quite another. The only thing I can see for certain is that Iran is now more convinced than ever that it needs a nuclear weapon and more determined than ever to get one. And, looking at previous posts upthread, it would seem that the IRGC now has complete control of Iran, which is not going to help matters at all.
