UN: U.S. Intelligence on Iran "Unreliable"

As they did with Iraq prior to the invasion, the administration is trying to dupe the international community with bogus intelligence:
Although international concern is growing about Iran's nuclear program and its regional ambitions, diplomats here say most U.S. intelligence shared with the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency has proved inaccurate and none has led to significant discoveries inside Iran.

The officials said the CIA and other Western spy services had provided sensitive information to the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency at least since 2002, when Iran's long-secret nuclear program was exposed. But none of the tips about supposed secret weapons sites provided clear evidence that the Islamic Republic was developing illicit weapons.

We will have to wait and see if this neocon White House will get away with it again. And we won't have to wait long.
