CIA analysis finds no Iranian nuclear weapons drive
Sat Nov 18, 11:18 PM ET

WASHINGTON (AFP) - A classifed draft CIA assessment has found no firm evidence of a secret drive by Iran to develop nuclear weapons, as alleged by the White House, a top US investigative reporter has said.
but Mad Dog Cheney wants to attack anyway:
Quote:
A current senior intelligence official confirmed the existence of the CIA analysis and said the White House had been hostile to it, he wrote.

Cheney and his aides had discounted the assessment, the official said.

"They're not looking for a smoking gun," the official was quoted as saying, referring to specific intelligence about Iranian nuclear planning.

"They're looking for the degree of comfort level they think they need to accomplish the mission."
hopefully, Cheney & Co.will be a lot less comfortable come January - they truly need to be on a short leash.
