NO EVIDENCE THAT IRAN PLANS NUCLEAR WEAPON

Graham Allison writes an op-ed in today's The Washington Post on U.S. policy towards Iran.

Allison seems to forget that every nation signatory to the NPT (Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty) has the right to make use of nuclear power for peaceful purposes.

Allison by innuendo claims Iranians are interested in developing nuclear weapons.

"The brute fact is that Iran has crossed a threshold that is painful to acknowledge but impossible to ignore: It has lost its nuclear virginity."

However, there is absolutely no evidence that Iran is pursuing something it has repeatedly said that it is not doing and does not want to do. Allison's article is one more attempt to scare the American public, demonize Iran and Iranians, and prepare the citizenry into accepting an unjustified and illegal attack upon Tehran.
