Bush Targets Iran: Warmongering in the Name of the Lord, Phase III
Reed31463
Iran secured the right to develop peaceful nuclear energy when it signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT) in the 1970's and entered into a Safeguards Agreement, which became effective on 15 May 1974. This right was added to the treaty as an incentive to encourage non-nuclear nations into signing, thereby strengthening the treaty.
My question is, Why does everyone who discusses Iran's program only rely on Bush demagoguery about the program or quote Secretary of State Rice's latest rhetoric and bogus claims? The best source of information I have found about Iran's nuclear program, comes from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) personnel who are responsible for program oversight on the ground. The IAEA and the international community have spent the last 32 years dealing with Iran, in order to achieve the level of cooperation we see today.
For the latest information on Iran's program, please see the IAEA's Information Circular dated 3 Feb 2006. I believe that paragraphs 1 thru 11 on pages 4 & 5 of this Information Circular fairly and factually sum up the Iranian nuclear "crisis". There were problems with the program early on (IMHO Iran was testing the IAEA resolve to see what they could get away with), but the economic and political climate have changed and the IAEA is very effective and knowledgeable in ensuring safeguards are in place.
Iran has since given up trying to fool the IAEA and has complied and cooperated fully with the IAEA. Iran is 100% within their right to develop nuclear energy for peaceful means; a right secured by signing the NPT. It took 32 years to get Iran to this level of cooperation and to be fair, since 1974 to date, not one nuclear power plant in Iran has come on line, even for a second. Why? It is because of the effectiveness of the IAEA and the safeguards they have implemented.
Now, 32 years later, it is no surprise that after the IAEA has finally succeeded in generating a satisfactory level of cooperation from Iran, the Bush administration comes along and claims to have better knowledge and intelligence or Iran's intentions and capabilities than the IAEA.
Why are they making this claim? Because they need another war to achieve their PNAC goals, that's why. Well they are not going to get their war. Not this time.
These are the same people who fixed the facts and intelligence around the policy to invade Iraq. These are the same people who where "wrong" about Iraqi WMD's. These are the same people who were "wrong" about the aftermath in Iraq. These are the same people who were "wrong" about the amount of troops needed for the initial invasion mission. These are the same people who were "wrong" about the cost for the war in Iraq. These are the same people who were "wrong" about the levels of preparation for Hurricane Katrina. These are the same people who were "wrong" about the UAE port deal. These are the same people who were involved with Jack Abramoff. These are the same people who lied about unwarranted domestic wiretaps. And these are the same people who lied about the Valerie Plame leak.
Do not trust this administration, they never tell the truth. They are incapable of telling the truth. The American people must demand an end to Bush administration warmongering and demagoguery, and ensure that the IAEA's efforts are not undermined. We must find a way to create peace in the region, not war. War is an obscenity and war is not fair, especially to all the children involved (Caution: Sound begins automatically) .
