They are lying just like Saddam was. I can still remember when the US had some credibility. Those sure were the days.

VIENNA, Nov 21 (Reuters) - The United States accused the U.N. nuclear watchdog on Friday of weakening its credibility by not taking a tougher stand against Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Washington says Iran has a secret programme to develop atomic bombs and was enraged when an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report concluded there was "no evidence" of this.

The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations in Vienna said the use of this phrase was "highly unfortunate".

"This misleading phrasing moved both (U.S.) government officials and academic experts across the political spectrum to expressions of disbelief that the institution charged with... scrutinising nuclear proliferation risks was dismissing important facts," Kenneth Brill told the IAEA board.
