Bushehr Plant shutdown and Nuclear Deadline

The author recognizes the following details that reside outside of the Prophecy against Elam are speculation, but these details are too tempting to resist.

The Iran nuclear deal has a “political agreement” deadline of March 31st while the more complicated technical aspect agreement is June 30th. Is the political nuclear agreement due March 31st directly tied to the recent shutdown of the Bushehr nuclear plant in Iran?

Israel has called the emerging deal as ‘incomprehensibly’ bad.

As Iran hailed “massive progress” toward a deal on its nuclear program, an Israeli official described the terms of the looming agreement as “incomprehensibly” bad and rejected the Obama administration’s contention that it would keep the regime a year away from accumulating enough fissile material for a bomb.

Iran shut down its Bushehr nuclear plant around the beginning of March to refuel the power plant and will take 2 months to complete.

The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) has been quoted by IRNA state news agency as announcing that Bushehr plant will remain shut down for two months.

It added that the annual refueling deadline for the plant falls in June. “However, given that June is a period when electricity consumption reaches its maximum, Bushehr plant needed to be put off the stream sooner to prepare it for the summer consumption peak,” said the AEOI in its statement.

Bushehr plant officially began its operations in September 2011, generating electricity at 40 percent of its capacity. The commercial production of the plant is expected to happen later in 2015.

Iran and Russia signed several deals in late 2014 over the construction of two nuclear reactor units at Bushehr plant.  The deals also envisage the building six more reactors in the project in the future.

Iran says it has shut down its Bushehr nuclear power plant based on a previously arranged schedule.

Refueling spent fuel rods is a delicate and dangerous operation. An accident would be catastrophic . The Bushehr plant is located in the ancient Persian area of Elam and is prone to earthquakes. The plant experienced a 7.7 quake in April of 2013. 

The recent Fukushima disaster was created after a 9.0 earthquake caused a tsunami to hit the facility.  Jeremiah’s prophecy is clear that the disaster will cause a dispersion of people from the area of Elam.

³⁶ And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come. Jeremiah 49:36
