[Vision2020] Target Iran: Scott Ritter's New Book Questions Iran's Nuclear Weapons Program: Re: Iran oil revenue

[Ted Moffett]

All:

Over and over we hear talk that Iran is attempting to acquire nuclear
weapons, yet what is the solid evidence this is true?  Just as with Saddam's
WMDs before the Iraq invasion, there appears to be a slant in much of the
reporting toward assuming Iran is definitely on the path to a nuclear
weapon.

Scott Ritter, former Iraq weapons inspector, who correctly warned the US
that the claims of Saddam having WMD before we invaded were highly doubtful,
is now questioning this assumption that Iran is definitely trying to develop
nuclear weapons.  In an hour and a half discussion, with audience
participation, with Ritter and Seymour Hirsch, that is available as
streaming audio from the New York Sound Posse, you can listen to Ritter
discuss his book "Target Iran."
