The American intelligence reports’ recent assertion that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003 does not change anything about the current situation as long as it does not fundamentally change the minds of American policymakers. Judging from President Bush's dismissive response, this doesn't seem to be the case. The truth is, Americans do not need a pretext to continue their bullying of Iran, which is precisely why Iranians want to and in fact should build nuclear capacity.
The National Intelligence Estimate report is only one interesting development that seemingly reveals cracks on the American front in the bound-to-be-long history of conflict over Iran's right to nuclear armament. I am curious about how such a vague report that doesn't rule out any possibility was co-signed by all American intelligence groups and submitted to the White house in the midst of American efforts to isolate Iran internationally. It is not hard to imagine that once the report was submitted, the White House did not have much choice but to release it given the leak scandals it has faced before. Looking at this from the Middle East perspective, such a break during a time of struggle seems way too un-American. That leads me to think that there is something larger at work here.

Therefore I believe the Iranians should find much wider support from international community to protect themselves from this unending American aggression and the only way to do that is to have a nuclear deterrent. The greatest danger in the Middle East is American meddling. Bush's earlier remarks about assuming the Middle East was a chaotic place before American intervention were a grave distortion of truth. Without America and with its own commodity wealth, the Middle East can still be a prosperous and peaceful region.

More Anti American nonsense from a hyper Turkish nationalist.

OK, who wrote it? It sounds as if it came from the Iranian PR department.
As far as I am concerned, we owe the Islamofascist mullas in Iran big time for 1979, starting with the weasel Imahandjob who I do believe was one of those who took over the Embassy.
This dumb ass who wrote this seems not to realize how life would be for him under an Islamic regime. Here is from his bio: "...Mustafa Domanic is a financial analyst at the London office of a global hedge fund..."
A capitalist. He would be the first idiot to get his head sawed off. Just unbelievable.
No author listed in your header. Who wrote it? Better question, what purpose does the editorial board of the WaPo think this nonsense serves?
“OK, who wrote it? It sounds as if it came from the Iranian PR department.”
My first guess was it’s a leaked DNC internal memo. And, I’m not really kidding, much.
Please add the author’s name which I accidentally omitted. It is Mustafa Domanic. Thanks!
Need one say more?
Just like Europe would be a better place after the Nazis took over. But at least the fascists had the trains running on time thing going for them.
Yeah...the Middle East is one big oasis of love, and the only thing this moron has going for him is that he doesn't have to live in it. This is just pathetic. Let's see...the last time the Islamic world did something positive in ANYTHING, literature, government, innovation...ANYTHING, was long before the fall of the Ottoman Empire. They did back then what the islamofascists want all muslims to do today, which is forsake anything Western. We saw how well that worked for them when they became the "sick man of Europe"...now, we will be lucky if it isn't a mushroom cloud somewhere.
Ahh man, you beat me to the punch.
When I do a search for ‘Mustafa Domanic’ I see a lot of washington post links, and a linkedin link with 1 connection, and his blog, but I don’t find much else that really connects him to a hedge fund. Perhaps someone more diligent can track down his authenticity.
So lets assume that Country A gets nukes and Country USA “forces” them to defend themselves.... I understand better now
At first I though Madeline Half-bright wrote this article.

Why am I not surprised that newsweek and wapo would publish this enemy propaganda?
