    The NIE used to be the gold standard for U.S. intelligence reporting, but with Bush/Cheney it has fallen into susceptibility of politicization and corruption as can be seen here.  The infiltration of the NIE was the major point that allowed Cheney to convince the U.S. and world that Iraq was such a threat.  Hopefully, we will wake up to realize that this is happening again and stop it before it starts.  You can already see the news reports every two or three days molding the minds of the general public that Iran is evil.  The mass media is failing us.

  • UN atomic watchdog chief Mohamed ElBaradei said Sunday he had no evidence that Iran is building nuclear weapons and accused US leaders of adding "fuel to the fire" with recent bellicose rhetoric.
  • "Second, even if Iran were to be working on nuclear weapons ... they are at least (a) few years away from having such weapon," he said, citing Washington's own intelligence assessments.
  • "My fear (is) that if we continue to escalate from both sides that we will end up into a precipice, we will end up into an abyss. The Middle East is in a total mess, to say the least. And we cannot add fuel to the fire."

  • ElBaradei has been vindicated in his pre-war belief that Iraq was not resuming its own nuclear arms program, contrary to claims by Bush and Cheney.
  • "But have we seen Iran having the nuclear material that can readily be used into a weapon? No. Have we seen an active weaponization program? No."
