South Africa envoy: NIE report contradicts US anti-Iran claims
Islamic Republic News Agency ^ | Vienna, Dec 4, IRNA

Posted on 12/05/2007 10:14:05 AM PST by Perdogg

South African envoy to the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency said on Tuesday that the US National Intelligence Estimates (NIE) new report on Iran is in contradiction with US allegations against Iran.

Abdul Samad Minty added that the context of the new report differs from the claims raised by certain states.

He noted that given the NIE report on Iran's peaceful nuclear program, the situation has been changed, and that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has always underlined there is no diversion in Tehran's peaceful nuclear drive.

This “NIE” report, that’s from the same people reported Hussein (Saddam, not Obama) had nukes?

So if they’re reporting that Iran does NOT have a nuclear weapons program, is it safe to say that they probably DO?

The Iranians must be celebrating their victory over the Great Satan, and how it will probably lead to weakened sanctions. To celebrate, they probably buried a few women up to their necks and stoned them to death.

I don’t know, there still may be plans to do something about Iran. Just a gut feeling.

South Afica had a “secret nuclear weapons program”

They supposedly have stopped trying to produce nukes-

I wonder if they were collaborating with Iran?
