For the record, the long list of nuclear activities Iran kept hidden from the IAEA includes:


1. Clandestine construction of a pilot uranium enrichment facility;
2. Construction of a large-scale enrichment facility;
3. Construction of a facility to convert uranium yellowcake into uranium hexafluoride gas (UF6) - which then can be enriched to create nuclear bombs;
4. Construction of a heavy-water reactor that can be used to produce plutonium for nuclear weapons without having to master the uranium enrichment process;
5. Importation of the design and components for centrifuges used to enrich uranium;
6. Importation of 1.8 tons of uranium yellowcake; experimentation with the separation of plutonium;
7. Experimentation with polonium (a radioactive isotope used to trigger and boost nuclear explosions);
8. Importation of instructions on how to weaponize highly enriched uranium.
