At Mossad headquarters, Bergman receives the information almost instantaneously. He downloads everything, and has the encryptions deciphered. His eyes go wide as he reads what’s before him. He quickly sends the data on emissions and radiation to the special science group monitoring this project.
Beads of sweat form on his forehead as the reality of what’s going on in Iran, what they have feared all along, sinks in.
By 0730 the following day, Bergman has a report from the science group on the two days of data provided to them by his desert rats. It is not good.
The conversations the team has been able to record are mostly just typical gripe sessions between soldiers stuck in a lousy location. But some of the content suggests that these soldiers are aware of what they’re being exposed to, leading the specialists to believe that the nuclear situation in this location is both highly suspect and critical.
They also believe that the levels of emissions and radioactivity suggest that this facility is not enriching uranium, but rather reprocessing plutonium. This conclusion is every bit as dangerous as if they were enriching uranium. Reprocessed plutonium can also be used in nuclear warheads.
