Analysts said the report might undermine Washington's drive to persuade other world powers to agree further U.N. sanctions against Iran.

Why let facts get in the way of a good war?

Unless Israel attacks, the Iran issue is dead as far as the U.S. is concerned.

Thanks to Bush, Iran is pretty much free to do what they want.
