The New York Times …
U. S. Says Iran Ended Atomic Arms Work
Fox News…
Hadley: U.S. Policy Toward Iran Nuclear Weapons Must Continue
To arbitrate between the two “titans” check out the PDF from the actual intelligence published by Fox.

1. Barry Dauphin:Iran stopped development in 2003. Did something important happen in 2003? I don’t know, it’s on the tip of my tongue… Gosh, what was that? Oh, I’m sure someone will remember.
Dec 3, 2007 - 6:15 pm 2. photoncourier.blogspot.com:So, when does something become a “nuclear weapons program?” Evidently, installing thousands of centrifuges to process nuclear fuel doesn’t count. So when *does* the effort become a weapons program? When the fuel is ready? When it is shaped into proper form for a bomb? When it is installed in the casing? When conventional explosives for the triggering are added? When the fuse is finally bolted into the assembly?

From the article:
“…officials suggested it [the war with Iraq] was part of an “atmosphere” that also included at that time the “implosion” of the A.Q. Khan network; the decision by Libya to abandon its weapons of mass destruction programs and cooperate with American authorities probing its origins; and the threat of U.N. sanctions.”

After Iran nukes Tel Aviv and the NYT’s Steven Erlanger explains how it was Israel’s fault because they wouldn’t negotiate with Hamas.

Don’t readers deserve complete transparency?

The same way we found out Pakistan and N Korea had the bomb – when the bombs made a sound and the earth shook.
Details, details, details.
