Iran does not build Weapon of Mass Destruction it buys them.
The 118-count indictment charges the Chinese businessman, Li Fang Wei, a Limmt executive, and the company with conspiring to conceal its transactions and with entering false information on bank transactions that went through Manhattan. The Manhattan district attorney, Robert M. Morgenthau, announced the indictment at a news conference Tuesday.

“What we’re trying to do and what we are doing is to make every effort to prosecute the company, which is perhaps the largest supplier of weapons of mass destruction to the Iranian government,”
…
In one instance, in February 2007, a Limmt subsidiary billed a Defense Industries shell company 89,000 euros, or about $115,700 (dollars in 2007), for 200 graphite cylinders, Mr. Morgenthau said. And in another case, Mr. Morgenthau said, in June 2008, Limmt used the letterhead of a front company to send a Defense Industries subsidiary an invoice for 1.4 million euros, or about $1.8 million, for 24,500 kilograms of high-strength maraging steel rods.
Okay – one can get killed when a high strength maraging steel crowbar comes down on ones head and maybe even with graphite electrodes used in metal furnaces. But how those would constitute weapons of mass destruction is beyond me.
