Britain's envoy to the United Nations nuclear watchdog contradicted the findings of US intelligence officials who said Iran stopped developing a nuclear weapon in 2003.
Simon Smith, the chief British delegate to the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, was speaking after diplomats were shown documents which, if accurate, would back claims by hawks in the Bush administration that Iran has continued to pursue its nuclear weapons programme.
Teheran has refused to address the weaponisation studies issue, dismissing such allegations as "baseless" and saying the intelligence used to back them up was "fabricated".
I wonder if we'll ever get a straight answer from either side.

Yeah, like I believe Britain anymore than I believe Bush. They are just as greedy for oil as him. No, we will never get an honest answer from them.

I fear a 'straight answer' will come, just not in a diplomatic and peaceful manner. It seems that France and Germany's fears for Iran back in December are probably still in tact...
