Obama & McCain Accused of Exaggerating Iran’s Nuclear Program

HeadlineJun 04, 2008

As the McCain-Obama race for the White House begins, both candidates are being accused of exaggerating Iran’s nuclear program. The McClatchy Newspapers reports McCain and Obama have both accused Iran of developing nuclear weapons despite reports from the US intelligence community that Iran halted its nuclear weapons effort in mid-2003. The UN International Atomic Energy Agency, which is investigating Iran’s program, has found no evidence to date of an active Iranian nuclear weapons project.
