Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has reportedly requested that the Iranian state tourism organization come up with methods of opening the country's nuclear sites to foreign tourists in order to prove that the country's nuclear program is peaceful. According to the state news agency, IRNA, possible attractions could include the plants at Isfahan and Natanz, or a reactor being built in Bushehr. Should Ahmadinejad's latest brilliant idea manifest itself, it may soon be possible to live out your dream of being a U.N. atomic watchdog inspector – while on holiday no less!
