British spy chiefs have grave doubts that Iran has mothballed its nuclear weapons programme, as a US intelligence report claimed last week, and believe the CIA has been hoodwinked by Teheran.

Iran 'hoodwinked' CIA over nuclear plans Analysts believe that Iranian staff, knowing their phones were tapped, deliberately gave misinformation

The timing of the CIA report has also provoked fury in the British Government, where officials believe it has undermined efforts to impose tough new sanctions on Iran and made an Israeli attack on its nuclear facilities more likely.

There is a large group of men coming on the main road, to bring forth their worldview and bring gifts of thunderous understanding. We should blame all that is good in the world, and feel important and smart, and negotiate immediately.

I have no doubt it was the communist State Department scumbags themselves who tipped off the Iranians that their phones were tapped.

So they can spy for their (Democrat) party and do a little leaking and dirty work for their fellow travelers over at State.

The UK has pushed all along against military action in Iran while also pushing for endless talk. The UK’s ambassador to Iran blames the USA while talking to the mullah’s puppets. Reap what you’ve sewn, UK.

Europeans will panic. They always thought that the US would be more hardline, so they could take the “high road”. Now they are responsible for their own security.

In the 1950’s the CIA/MI6 tunneled under the streets of Berlin to tap the Russians military telephone system. The Russians were tipped off by Kim Philby and rather than pull the tap, they fed them nothing but chickenfeed ( worthless tibbits) and misinformation. One day, when the Russian commander was on leave, the Russians found the tap. Not knowing that the tap had already been discovered, his stand in had it publicly “ripped out”, to the apparent embarassment of the Anglo-Americans.

The CIA is full of PhD's who couldn't get academic jobs. A Ph.D., is really almost a disqualification for useful employment.

I'm sure out State Department helped them...

The British have great doubts?

Hell, why go all the way across the ocean. I got plenty of doubts right here in the States!!

How exactly do you determine in 2007 that in 2003 Iran stopped building nukes but in 2005 you were convinced that they were still actively doing it?

Anybody want to administer the laugh test on this one? Or the smell test? Cuz this one ain’t gonna pass either one.
