Howard says "I told you so"
Iran Lied?? No, They Don't Do That...then points us to "Spook86" for an explanation of why things changed. Short answer: New intel.
Those of you who have been reading me for more than six months remember my posts (very well researched) that indicated Iran would have to have 50,000 P2 centrifuges in order to produce enough enriched uranium for a bomb and that due to the near impossibility for them to get the correct rotors they were actually three years away 2010, and more than likely 2012. Dirty bomb? Possibly. HERE with links. I just think the Arabs are so good at lying that we bought Iran's bs like we bought Saddam's.
...the earlier estimate apparently lacked an important detail--corroboration by human intelligence (HUMINT) sources--insiders who could "fill in the details" on the Iranian effort and its long-range goals. Sad to say, but the new estimate suggests that western intelligence never had a credible source at the highest levels of the Iranian government......until now? Important reading.
