"The report claimed to have information indicating that Tehran mothballed its nuclear weapons program as early as autumn 2003. The paper also said that it was "very unlikely" that Iran would have enough highly enriched uranium -- the primary ingredient in atomic bombs -- by 2009 to produce such a weapon. Rather, the NIE indicated "Iran probably would be technically capable of producing enough (highly enriched uranium) for a weapon sometime during the 2010-2015 timeframe."

Yea, what is the truth, will we know when a Mushroom cloud appears from a missile based in Irans new FRIEND, Valenzuela?? Could it be they are playing the same game as Iraq, and moving things around like a shell & pea game?

I regret to say this, but we are going to have to get used to the idea of a world armed with nukes. There was never a way to put that genie back in the bottle. Just delay the inevitable. We need to find a way to deal with this new world, and stop wasting time bemoaning the facts.
