So, as Bush continues to try and expand his anti-Muslim crusade, the CIA has concluded that Iran is NOT currently developing nukes. From Truthout [1]:
Washington - A classifed draft CIA assessment has found no firm evidence of a secret drive by Iran to develop nuclear weapons, as alleged by the White House, a top US investigative reporter has said.
Seymour Hersh, writing in an article for the November 27 issue of the magazine The New Yorker released in advance, reported on whether the administration of Republican President George W. Bush was more, or less, inclined to attack Iran after Democrats won control of Congress last week...
Cheney said the White House would circumvent any legislative restrictions "and thus stop Congress from getting in its way," he said.
The Democratic victory unleashed a surge of calls for the Bush administration to begin direct talks with Iran.
But the administration's planning of a military option was made "far more complicated" in recent months by a highly classified draft assessment by the Central Intelligence Agency "challenging the White House's assumptions about how close Iran might be to building a nuclear bomb," he wrote.
"The CIA found no conclusive evidence, as yet, of a secret Iranian nuclear-weapons program running paallel to the civilian operations that Iran has declared to the International Atomic Energy Agency," Hersh wrote, adding the CIA had declined to comment on that story.
A current senior intelligence official confirmed the existence of the CIA analysis and said the White House had been hostile to it, he wrote.
Cheney and his aides had discounted the assessment, the official said.
So...our own intelligence network says Iran is not developing nukes. Cheney is ignoring our own intelligence information. Sound familiar? We ignored our own intelligence before 9/11 and look what happened. We ignored our own intelligence before the Iraq invasion and look what happened. Now Cheney is ignoring our own intelligence yet again. Do we want yet ANOTHER foreign policy disaster? Maybe Cheney is going to call in Chalabi again to give us false information that we can base another failed war on.
