Mossad, CIA, ‘Agree Iran Has No Active Nuclear Weapons Program’

By JOSEPH FITSANAKIS,

Quoting American intelligence sources, The New York Times reports that intelligence agencies from the United States and Israel agree that Iran suspended its nuclear weapons program years ago, and that Tehran is not currently attempting to revive it. 

As intelNews has been reporting consistently since 2009, the overwhelming consensus in the US intelligence community is that the Iranian regime suspended all efforts to build a nuclear bomb in 2003. 

Furthermore, the US intelligence community maintains that the decision to turn Iran into a nuclear power has yet to be conclusively taken in Tehran. 

This was first outlined in the 2007 US National Intelligence Estimate (NIE), an annual report cooperatively authored by the heads of all US intelligence agencies. 

This consensus appears even wider after Sunday’s New York Times report, which maintains that, the Mossad, is in broad agreement with the premise of the 2007 NIE. 

The Times cites an anonymous “former senior American intelligence official”, who says that, the “Mossad does not disagree with the US on the [Iranian] weapons program”, and that “there is not a lot of dispute between the US and Israeli intelligence communities on the facts”.
