Will the International Atomic Energy Agency find the bombed Syrian reactor was not nuclear afterall?
Background: Last week, Washington released intelligence alleging Syria had built a nuclear reactor with North Korean help before an Israeli air strike destroyed the facility on Sept. 6.
The Syrian site Israel bombed in September was not part of a nuclear weapons programme, but was a military facility under construction, President Bashar al-Assad said in remarks published on Sunday.
The International Atomic Energy Agency said yesterday it would investigate US claims that Syria had tried to build a nuclear reactor with North Korean help.

After four days in Syria on his return to Vienna, IAEA deputy director general Olli Heinonen told reporters Wednesday that inspectors were able to take extensive test samples at the site.
However, Heinonen said it was "too early" to draw conclusions about the nature of the site, which Syria says "was an ordinary military building."

Thank you for updating this question with your response.
I have decided to try and find settlement info on some of my suspended questions, as I could use the $H, if the settlement is in my favor.
Even if it is not in my favor, I have nearly 2.5 pages of suspended questions and I would like to clean that up.

The report said that the IAEA inspectors have found eighty uranium particles in the establishment blown down by Israel at a remote desert in eastern Syria. Syria has to give a proper explanation to the source of these substances.
The report also pointed out that "the possibility is very small that these uranium particles have come from Israel's air attack missiles."
A high-ranking official of the United Nations also said on Thursday in Vienna that "it can be sure that the found uranium particles" are not natural substances, but "are made by human hands."
