International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed ElBaradei says Iran does not have the nuclear material to develop a nuclear weapon, a statement that undercuts the Bush administration’s claims about Iran’s intent on building one.

In 2007, a U.S. National Intelligence Estimate concluded that Iran is years away from acquiring the technology necessary to produce a nuclear weapon and had jettisoned a nuclear-weapon component of its research. However, President George W. Bush and other administration officials continued to warn about Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons goals.

(The story summary continues below.)

Given the suspicions between Washington and Teheran, Babak Yaktafar, editor-in-chief of Washington Prism, doubts that ElBaradei’s statement will do much to change thinking in the Bush administration.
