I think this is the thread where we discussed this previously. I remember being surprised with the 3 year sentence. Quietly dropping it to 1 year when the world stops paying attention seems to be the best solution for the Iraqi government.

I'm actually supprised they droped it - on balance it might work out quite a good deal for him - I doubt he'll want for job offers and opportunities when he gets out.

Cool. Iran has 7k centrifuges now - 3k more then the last IAEA report said they had. Their heavy water reactor in Arak will be finished sometime in the next 2-4 years. Yay.
