Assaulting the Spire

Looks like the DNI is distancing himself from his own organizations assessment of the Iranian nuclear program.

Turns out that the piece that we all heard about in the news was not speaking about the entire program initiative that the Mainstream media had wanted you to think. They were only speaking about the construction of nuclear warheads….which is just a single step in the process of making the weapons.

Here, just read this:

Mr. McConnell was referring to the specific Iranian program to design potential nuclear warheads, which the December estimate said had halted in 2003. But in his opening testimony, Mr. McConnell noted that two other components of the nuclear program were moving ahead — the enrichment of uranium, which he said was the most difficult part of making a bomb, and the development of long-range missiles capable of hitting North Africa and Europe.

Ya’ don’t say?! Have anything else to add Mr. McConnell?

Yesterday, Mr. McConnell struck a different tone. “Declared uranium enrichment efforts, which will enable the production of fissile material, continue. This is the most difficult challenge in nuclear production. Iran’s efforts to perfect ballistic missiles that can reach North Africa and Europe also continue.”

He went on, “We remain concerned about Iran’s intentions and assess with moderate-to-high confidence that Tehran at a minimum is keeping open the option to develop nuclear weapons.

Wow, how did the Mainstream not pick up on this little nugget? You think the Today show or MSNBC or CNN will send this news on down the pipeline? AND tarnish their good name?

Never.

Guess the MSM hit pieces will continue to roll on down the line while the truth stays out here in obscurity in the blogosphere.
