Despite the repeated statements made by United States Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta which have clearly indicated that Iran is not developing nuclear weapons and the analysis of the American intelligence community, the heated anti-Iranian rhetoric never seems to let up.
Indeed, it has even been reported by none other than the New York Times that intelligence analysts in America have yet to find any hard evidence indicating that Iran has even decided to construct a nuclear bomb.
American intelligence assessments have continued to be congruent with the 2007 intelligence report
which clearly concluded that Iran had in fact completely abandoned
their nuclear program years before (scroll to the bottom of the article
to read the embedded report).
According to anonymous U.S. officials, this assessment was reinforced by the 2010 National Intelligence Estimate and “it remains the consensus view of America’s 16 intelligence agencies.”
So, how can the governments of the United States and Israel continue
to ignore their own intelligence agencies and nonsensically push forward
with the effort to go to war with Iran?
If nothing else, it has become painfully clear that our so-called
leaders are ignoring any and all contrary evidence which might weaken
their war effort and making the relentless push towards war.
Given that American intelligence agencies like the Central
Intelligence Agency (CIA) have concluded that the Iranian nuclear
weapons program was likely halted all the way back in 2003 and Panetta
himself has debunked the Iranian nuclear myth, it becomes evident that
they have no interest in the truth.
To make matters even worse, it appears that the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), an agency of the United Nations (UN) has
now become little more than a tool of the warmongering factions of
Western governments.
Recently the IAEA claimed that Iran had actually accelerated their
nuclear program, increasing their production of highly enriched uranium
and refused to answer some of the agency’s key questions about their
program.
In their report issued Friday, the director-general of the IAEA,
Yukiya Amano, said that their inspectors continue “to have serious
concerns regarding possible military dimensions to Iran’s nuclear
program,” according to the Los Angeles Times.
Apparently Amano and the IAEA know better than one of the best funded
and arguably the most powerful intelligence community on the planet.
“As Iran is not providing the necessary cooperation … the agency is
unable to provide credible assurance about the absence of undeclared
nuclear material and activities in Iran, and therefore to conclude that
all nuclear material in Iran is in peaceful activities,” Amano stated.
To any thinking person,
this statement should be laughable. That’s like me saying that my
neighbor cannot provide credible assurance about the absence of
undeclared thirty foot tall spiders in his garage, and therefore I cannot conclude that my neighbor is peaceful.
If the IAEA is worried about “undeclared nuclear material and
activities” they should be focusing their efforts solely on Israel, not
Iran.
According to Reuters,
even though the IAEA’s report was far from conclusive and the
preponderance of the American intelligence community has dismissed the
alleged Iranian nuclear weapons program, the latest report from the
nuclear agency “will further inflame Israeli fears the Islamic Republic
is pushing ahead with atomic bomb plans.”
“The report by the International Atomic Energy Agency gives added
proof that Israeli beliefs are true” about Iran’s nuclear program, a
statement from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said, according to AFP.
My favorite part of that statement is the usage of the world
“beliefs,” since that is exactly what it is. It is not based on fact or
logic but instead blind faith and a belief that Iran is this
bloodthirsty, genocidal nation relentlessly seeking nuclear weapons.
Of course, none of that is true but apparently Netanyahu has no interest in the truth, either.
“Iran is pursuing its nuclear program with no end in sight. It is
enriching uranium to 20 percent, totally ignoring demands by the international community,” Netanyahu also said.
Israeli leadership – especially Netanyahu – pointing to the demands of the international community is painfully ironic. Israel regularly rejects the opinion of the international community in their oppression of Palestinians, raids on humanitarian aid flotillas and more.
The White House has also jumped on the report as more fuel for the
anti-Iranian fire. They stated that Iran was in violation of United
Nations Security Council resolutions with their nuclear enrichment
efforts, even though their own intelligence assets have said that there
is no weapons program.
“When combined with its continued stonewalling of international inspectors, Iran’s actions demonstrate why Iran has failed to convince the international community that its nuclear program is peaceful,” Tommy Vietor, the White House National Security Council spokesman said.
The problem here is that Vietor is not speaking for the international community; he is merely speaking for the National Security Council – the same group that makes the call to murder American citizens without charge or trial.
There is no arguing against the reality of the Iranian nuclear program and their efforts to enrich nuclear fuel.
However, the problem arises when one makes the leap of faith required
to come to the conclusion that Iran is developing nuclear weapons or
their program is anything other than peaceful.
Iran is a sovereign nation and as such, the West has absolutely no
right to tell them that they cannot pursue peaceful nuclear technology.
Thanks to the American intelligence community, yet another blow to
the anti-Iranian propaganda has been dealt but obviously the leaders of
the Western world care not about these facts.
Hopefully the real international community can take note of the truth
and ignore the insane delusions of our so-called leaders who are making
the relentless push to bring us to war.
