US-slim data on Iran:" The United States has inadequate intelligence on Iran's nuclear arms program, a U.S. commission is preparing to tell President Bush. The report is due to be given to Bush and an unclassified version to Congress March 31, but sources told The New York Times that U.S. intelligence agencies have had little success in the kinds of human spying necessary to understand Iranian decision-making. The nine-member bipartisan presidential panel, led by Laurence Silberman, a retired federal judge, and Charles Robb, a former governor and senator from Virginia, had unrestricted access to the most senior people and the most sensitive documents of the intelligence agencies during the past 14 months. The most recent statement by U.S. agencies about Iran and its weapons was an unclassified report sent to Congress in November by CIA Director Porter Goss, who said Iran continued "to vigorously pursue indigenous programs to produce nuclear, chemical and biological weapons." You know what upsets me about this more then anything is that, we have our people over their. We hear and are told that: American soldiers are safe, and our government is on top of everything to keep them safe, so they say. But then something like this comes out and it's scary, because you know inside of you their is truth in it.
