Report Claims Iran Has Data To Build a Nuclear Bomb
reporter writes "According to a startling report just covered by the New York Times, 'senior staff members of the United Nations nuclear agency have concluded in a confidential analysis that Iran has acquired sufficient information to be able to design and produce a workable atom bomb.' In 2007, American intelligence erroneously concluded that Tehran in 2003 stopped further research into designing a nuclear bomb. This conclusion was contradicted by German, French, and Israeli intelligence. Recently, London also concluded that the American assessment is incorrect. So, here we are. The Iranians have the knowledge to build a nuclear bomb and have been working relentlessly to perfect its design. Tehran is apparently able to create the components (e.g. enriched uranium) that can be assembled into such a weapon. Meanwhile, Jerusalem is communicating with the Kremlin about a list of Russian scientists it believes are assisting Iran's efforts to develop the bomb."
"Ones with secular governments that keep religion out of government policy and decisions. "
Oh well. That means Israel is one of the 'bad guys'.
That's irrelevant and illogical. The reason they don't start wars is because they don't have the ability to win them. Instead, they support terrorism.
Neither one of them would front he kind of lies made by either the NYT or the POTUS.

This is careful language couched in diplomatic terms, that translates into a denunciation of "Bullshit!"
Obama at G20? He completely warped the facts and shadow-boxed an agenda. The anti nuke talk has no concrete actions behind it, and is intended only to portray the nuclear states as "anti-nuclear" so they can maintain their monopoly under the appearance of moral high-ground, as they plan destruction for Iran.

There's no logic in this... only antisemitism. Some people have no logic when it comes to hatred.
Israel and Iran are not even close to the same thing. One is a country with a form of democrac, voting, women's rights, and many different peoples and religions. The other is a hardcore extremist Islamic state where they have openly promised to wipe us off the map (in Arabic of course), and they are controlled by a lunatic dictator who believes a world war will usher in the messiah.
It never ceases to amaze me the number of racist people who defy logic. I'm, actually, one that thinks the Israeli government sucks and is controlled by a bunch off asshats but you don't see me comparing Israel to Iran. That's ridiculous and you have some serious bias there.
According to a startling report just issued by the "New York Times", "senior staff members of the United Nations nuclear agency have concluded in a confidential analysis that Iran has acquired 'sufficient information to be able to design and produce a workable' atom bomb." In 2007, American intelligence erroneously concluded that Tehran in 2003 stopped further research into designing [a] nuclear bomb. This [American] conclusion was contradicted by Germany, French, and Israeli intelligence. Recently, London has concluded that the American assessment is incorrect.
So, here we are. The Iranians have the knowledge to build a nuclear bomb and have been working relentlessly to perfect its design. Tehran is now creating the parts (e. g., enriched unranium) that can be assembled into such a weapon.
Meanwhile, Jerusalem is justifiably on the verge of ordering its military to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities. Will Paris offer military support to the Israelis? A bombing mission against Iran is a difficult military operation and needs the assistance of the French superpower."
Iran does not deny the holocaust took place. That's just pure propaganda bullshit. That idiot Ahmadinejad denied it took place. I'm sure there are some others who agree with him, but there are plenty who accept the holocaust took place.
Actually the whole term "holocaust denial" is quite aptly described as "pure propaganda bullshit", since the definition of a "holocaust denier" is someone who does not accept, on faith alone, a claim about something from recent history. The vast majority of "holocaust deniers" would be better described as "sceptics of dodgy history". Typically it is a requirement for those making claims to back them up. Instead of enguaging in ad hominem attacks when anyone asks them for the most basic of evidence.
