Five Reasons To Doubt The Claim Iran Has Shuttered Nuke Program By THOMAS JOSCELYN
The U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), comprising the nation's top 16 intelligence agencies, dropped a bombshell last week. After years of saying they were convinced Iran was pursuing nuclear weapons, America's spooks made an abrupt about-face.
In nine pages of declassified "Key Judgments" from a new National Intelligence Estimate (NIE), the IC now says it has "high confidence" Iran ceased its covert nuclear weapons program in 2003. And they have "moderate confidence" — that is, somewhat less — the mullahs haven't restarted it since.
We should be skeptical of the IC's claims.
