Doubts Raised over U.S. Intelligence on Iran Nuclear Facilities

HeadlineFeb 23, 2007

The developments come amidst new doubts about the Bush administration’s intelligence on Iran’s nuclear activities. Diplomatic sources at the IAEA have told The Guardian newspaper much of U.S. intelligence given to U.N. inspectors has proven incorrect. The dead-end information has included a list of sites U.S. officials alleged as possible areas of illegal nuclear activity. In one case, the CIA claimed to have found plans for a nuclear warhead on a stolen government laptop supplied by an informant. Doubts were immediately raised when all of the data was in English, not Farsi.
