US President George W Bush has said that Iran should reveal the full extent of its nuclear programme, or risk further international isolation.Bush gives the same rhetoric that has characterized his pre N.I.E. statements.
"They can come clean with the international community about the scope of their nuclear activities, and fully accept the longstanding offer to suspend their enrichment programme and come to the table and negotiate.
The reporting on the N.I.E. itself, has been pretty universal and relatively straight froward: NIE Report: Iran Halted Nuclear Weapons Program Years Ago
In a stunning reversal of Bush administration conventional wisdom, a new assessment by U.S. intelligence agencies concludes Iran shelved its nuclear weapons program over four years ago.You can find information from the IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency - right at the UN website: UN News Service
"We judge with high confidence that in fall 2003, Tehran halted its nuclear weapons program," reads a declassified version of the National Intelligence Estimate key findings.
Iran has been very cooperative according to Mohamed El Baradei, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Mr. El Baradei says much of what the Iranians have said about their nuclear program matches IAEA investigations. However, the IAEA chief urged Iran to cooperate further.

That's true. He doesn't have a lot of support outside of the neocons.
He also gets support from the Fox Islamofascist right wing bunch.
I think the positive side of the 'immigration' issue is that a lot of the right wing people are all caught up in that. Not sure if they can handle more than 1 issue at a time.
This is part of the equation. Like a lot of people he scares the crap out of me. Part of me hopes he's spending his time juiced and with a bevy of women pealing grapes for him.
The interview should be another wake up call.
I doubt he's doing a Clinton. He's a Christian don't u know? Anyway, something tells me his thing goes more toward discipline fantasies if you get what I mean?
