IAEA: Iran No Nuclear Threat

Contrary to Bush administration scare tactics, a report of the the International Atomic Energy Agency obtained byReuters suggests that Iran is not hell-bent on producing nuclear weapons:

Iran’s uranium enrichment program is operating well below capacity and is far from producing nuclear fuel in significant amounts, according to a confidential U.N. nuclear watchdog report obtained by Reuters.

If there is a confrontation, it will be because our leaders see Iran as an obstacle to US domination of the Middle East, not because Iran poses any kind of even remotely plausible nuclear threat.
