Hardly a Shockeroo--Iran's Mad Mullahs are Runnning Rings Around the UN's Nuclear Watchwimp

This is pathetic:
VIENNA (Reuters) - The United Nations nuclear watchdog is expected to issue a report this week showing little progress is being made in its long-running investigation into suspected atomic bomb research by Iran, diplomats said on Wednesday. 
They said the quarterly International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report on Iran was likely to confirm, as Reuters reported last week, that Tehran failed to meet a late August deadline for answering questions about its atomic activities.
Western officials may see the lack of movement as a setback for broader efforts to end a decade-old dispute over a nuclear program which Iran says is peaceful but which they fear may be aimed at developing a nuclear weapons capability.
They say Iran must address the IAEA's concerns if there is to be any chance of success in parallel diplomatic negotiations with six world powers aimed at curbing the country's nuclear work in exchange for a gradual ending of sanctions on Tehran.
The IAEA is expected to issue its confidential report to member states on Thursday or Friday, ahead of a Sept. 15-19 meeting of the IAEA's 35-nation board of governors.  
There was no comment from the Vienna-based U.N. agency on Wednesday.
Iran has promised to cooperate with the IAEA since Hassan Rouhani, seen as a pragmatist, was elected president in 2013...
Do they really need to conduct more investigations? Given the Grandiose Ayatollah's heated, triumphalist pronouncements on the subject, any UN nuclear watchwimp who thinks Iran is enriching uranium for the sake of topping up the country's energy needs...is probably in line to win the IAEA another Nobel Peace Prize.
