U.N.: Iran May Be Hiding Nuke Evidence.

Uh NO SHIT!

VIENNA, Austria — Iran may be withholding information needed to establish whether it tried to make nuclear arms, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Monday in an unusually strongly worded report.

The tone of the language suggesting Tehran continues to stonewall the U.N. nuclear monitor revealed a glimpse of the frustration felt by agency investigators stymied in their attempts to gain full answers to suspicious aspects of Iran’s past nuclear activities.

A senior U.N. official familiar with the investigation into Iran’s nuclear program said none of the dozens of agency reports issued in that context had ever been as plain spoken in calling Tehran to task for not being forthright. He agreed to discuss the report only if granted anonymity because he was not authorized to comment to the media.

Iran has described its cooperation with the agency’s probe as positive, suggesting it was providing information requested by agency officials.

Ali Ashgar Soltanieh, Iran’s chief delegate to the IAEA, said as much again Monday, telling The Associated Press that the report described “the peaceful nature of our nuclear actions.”

“The Americans failed … in shameful attempts” to co-opt the agency into delivering anti-Iranian findings, he said.

I think this is ridiculous, it doesn’t matter what Iran does, the USA’s credibility is shot, so expecting anything from our leaders to derail this action by Iran is a waste of energy.

Luckily when Obama walks into the Whitehouse he will immediately open lines of communication with Iran and everything will be rosy. (/sarcasm)
