...likely to find out that the nuclear facility revealed recently near Qum is under the control of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Long suspected of building its own bomb, the IRGC has a well-funded, experienced, clandestine procurement network capable of buying and operating centrifuges to enrich uranium as well as building triggering devices.

What better triumph for Indians, what better act of empowerment, than to adopt the vocabulary of their oppressors to enhance and enrich their tradition...
