Agency: Iran may be withholding nuclear info
VIENNA, Austria - Iran may be withholding information needed to establish whether it tried to make nuclear arms, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Monday in an unusually strongly worded report.

2. Watch Bush-Cheney take this report and build it up all summer long into the "smoking gun."
Then we're sure as hell gonna get our war on.

3. They named NO names who in the IAEA created the 'agency' report
Edited on Mon May-26-08 07:24 PM by angstlessk
and I found this passage interesting The findings were part of a restricted agency report forwarded to the U.N. Security Council and to the 35 board members of the International Atomic Energy Agency that was obtained by The Associated Press.

Then I found this related story that DOES NAME NAMES and implies the US is not an honest broker regarding the aformentioned report: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24272032/

6. The question is - is Iran TRYING to make nuclear arms?
They MAY have in the past - but the latest intelligence from the latest NIE is that they STOPPED pursuing weapons in 2003.

7. Bush is selling uranium/bomb making material to the Saudis...
and no one is talking about it. !!!!!!!!

The Bush administration has announced plans to sell Saudi Arabia around $120 million in ...
Bush Promises to Give Enriched Uranium to Saudi Arabia ...

In a statement, the White House said the deal "will pave the way for Saudi Arabia’s access to safe, reliable fuel sources for energy reactors and demonstrate Saudi leadership as a positive non-proliferation model for the region.” But questions are being raised about the agreement at a time when the Bush administration continues to threaten military action over Iran’s nuclear program.
