Iran is not conducting this research in the open. This is a closed society and an issue of the utmost secrecy -- one likely to be buried in deep and remote bunkers.
OTOH, we knew where Saddam's WMD were and they didn't even exist, so I could be wrong.
*except for maybe Iran's, but they probably aren't talking to us.

I agree with this 100%. There is no way we should even expect our intelligence services to know where they are. They would have to be telepathic and omnicient to have this type of information.
