BBC Says US Iran report branded dishonest
Edited on Thu Sep-14-06 12:42 PM by winston61
The UN nuclear watchdog has protested to the US government
over a report on Iran's nuclear programme, calling it
"erroneous" and "misleading".

In a leaked letter, the IAEA said a congressional report
contained serious distortions of the agency's own findings on
Iran's nuclear activity.

The IAEA also took "strong exception" to claims made
over the removal of a senior safeguards inspector.

There was no immediate comment from Washington over the
letter.

4. When you listen to the intel experts and not the....
....self pro-claimed political experts they all say that if you are going to develop nuclear weapons technology you don't disguise it or build power plants to hide it. They all (the real experts) seem to agree with eachother on the fact that Iran realizes that it's oil supply is not infinite and never ending so they are trying to preserve those resources for future generations instead of pissing it away.

I suppose the neocon fascists are going to return to their attempts at undermining Dr. El Baradei. All they got for their previous efforts was to see their target win the Nobel Peace Prize.
