In December of 2007 the Bush Administration recieved a new N.I.E or National Intellgience Estimate. This document stated that Iran had halted it’s nuclear weapons program.

See: December 2007 NIE look under “Key Judgements”

Now word has gotten out in an article in the New Yorker that the Bush Administration is “stepping up” its moves against the country of Iran and it’s current regieme. See The Article.

It seems that the Bush Administration despite having engaged our military forces in two unsuccessful and unproductive operations in two Middle Eastern countries, will not rest until it causes chaos in Iran as well. Doesn’t this disturb anyone else besides me? Our forces are spread very thin, taking military action against Iran would be suicideal at best! We would have the United Nations, NATO and every other civilized nation screaming at us! The NIE said that Iran wouldn’t be able to produce enough Uranium to make a weapon until at least 2010. That leaves plenty of time to explore other options to solve the “problem”.
