Iran closer to nuclear bomb: emigre opposition

(Reuters)

26 October 2007

BRUSSELS - Iran may be closer to developing nuclear weapons than three to eight years believed by the UN nuclear watchdog, the country’s emigre opposition said on Friday.

And changing Iran’s chief nuclear negotiator, Ali Larijani, showed the country no longer needed to play for time in negotiations to push ahead with its nuclear programme, the National Council of Resistance of Iran said.

The group was the first to report in 2002 the existence in Iran of uranium enrichment facility at Natanz and heavy water plant at Arak, facilities the West suspects could be used for the production of the atomic bomb.

Teheran insists its activities are peaceful.

1. Look at former US "employees"...

...such as Osama bin Laden.

There's a very plain & simple reason America is considered by so very many to be the biggest terrorist on the block.

2. IN the real world, assets>enemies, enemies>assets...but if we notice it...

then we are deemed troublesome conspiracy mongers. So be it.

Al Q 1980 > Al Q 2001.
Saddam 1985 >1990 >2003
Noriega
and on and on....

Good find, N.
Keeping an eye on the info sources is what gives one some pretty good predictive abilities.
