National Intelligent Estimate authored by relics of the past.                    12-10-07
    By Mike Moseley

    Friday’s Rassmussen poll suggests that the recent NIE is not believed to be creditable.  The latest Rasmussen national telephone survey found that 66% disagree and say Iran has not stopped its nuclear weapons program.  Just 18% of those surveyed believe the NIE has any credibility whatsoever.  All of the world knows that Iran is in pursuit of nuclear weapons and has been for some time.   
 
    According to the Wall Street Journal, have "reputations as hyper-partisan anti-Bush officials".    They are Tom Fingar, formerly of the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research; Vann Van Diepen, the National Intelligence Officer for WMD; and Kenneth Brill, the former U.S. Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). 

    The New York Sun describes Tom Fingar  as a State Department employee who was an expert on China and Germany. Mr Fingar’s bio shows no experience in the middle east or its  geopolitics.

    The New York Sun describes Vann Van Diepen, one of the estimates main authors, as having spent the last five years trying to get America to accept Iran's right to enrich uranium. Mr. Van Diepen no doubt reckons that in helping push the estimate through the system, he has succeeded in influencing the policy debate in Washington. The bureaucrats may even think they are stopping another war.  Van Diepen’s bio shows no experience in Iranian geopolitics.

    The Wall Street Journal writes:   
    Kenneth Brill served as the US Ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (the IAEA). This is an agency that has served to enable Iranian's quest for nuclear weapons. The head of the IAEA, Mohammed ElBaradei, has even been called a friend by the Iranian regime. As he should be, for he has been an enabler of its nuclear weapons program and has stiff-armed European Union diplomats who have worked to restrain Iran. John Bolton recalls in his recent memoir that then-Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage "described Brill's efforts in Vienna, or lack thereof, as 'bull -- .'" Mr. Brill was "retired" from the State Department by Colin Powell before being rehired, over considerable internal and public protest, as head of the National Counter-Proliferation Center by then-National Intelligence Director John Negroponte.

     Jon Ward of the Washington Times reports:
    Several current and former high-level government officials familiar with the authors of the National Intelligence Estimate on Iran described the report as a politically motivated document written by anti-Bush former State Department officials, who opposed sanctioning foreign governments and businesses.
    The authors' aim is to undercut the White House effort to increase pressure for sanctions on Iran and to argue that Iran dropped its nuclear-weapons program in 2003 because of diplomatic efforts in which the authors had participated, the officials said.

"One has to look at the agendas of the primary movers of this report, to judge how much it can really be banked on," said David Wurmser, a former Middle East adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney, who has worked with the report authors.

    These three former State dept officials are relics from history past.  The past was a time when America negotiated with and supported the enemies of America. These men are relics of President Carter and  President Clinton. As President Carter supported radical Islam and  Clinton supported the communist Chinese military and the North Korean dictator it is these three men that are following the leads of their Presidents.  History reliving itself when Carter depots the Shah of Iran, unleashing radical Islam into the Iranian state and the entire world.    When American hostages were taken, Carter was at the mercy of the people that he unleashed. During his time in office, America both domestically and international, was brought to her knees. The world lost a very moderate and stable Islamic nation. This decision unleashed radical Islam as it stands today.

     Fingar, Van Diepen, and Brill are also the standard from the Clinton’s years in office.  It was the Clinton Administration that was the benchmark  for corruption in government.  The Clinton’s will be remembered for Monica Lewinsky , travelgate, whitewater, IRS gate, FBI files and countless others scandals. The most important scandal  Chinagate. Charlie Trie, Johnny Chung and John Wuang were just a few of the money men between China and Clinton and the DNC. According to the New York Times, Clinton’s administration removed $2 billion in trade with China from the eyes of the National Security Agency. Among the results: 77 supercomputers that were capable of 13 billion calculations per second were received by the communist military state. These computers are capable of scrambling and unscrambling secret data and more importantly design of nuclear weapons. President Clinton signed national security waivers allowing four U.S. commercial satellites to be launched in China, despite evidence that China was exporting nuclear and missile technology to Pakistan and Iran. President Bill Clinton personally approved the transfer to China of advanced space technology that can be used for nuclear combat. In 1996, Clinton approved the export of radiation hardened chip sets to China that are considered critical for atomic warfare and are required by advanced nuclear tipped missiles. This technology has gone from China to North Korea to Pakistan to Iran. President Bill Clinton has literally armed the enemies of America for generations to come.
 
    It is this leftist ideology that brings the United States to today’s most dangerous world.   Reading information  to come to a conclusion and having a political point of view and forming information to fit it is a very dangerous thing. When analytical judgement is used as a cover to produce anti-American policy their can be no winner.  When you consider that the entire state of Israel, Europe, and  America are the targets for a radical nuclear regime you have to conclude that America’s recent NIE report is nothing more than history reliving itself in the form of the “Carter-Clinton derangement syndrome”.  The authors are using the same leftist ideology as presidents Carter and Clinton when they  released radical Islam and armed China, Pakistan, Iran, Syria and North Korea.  All of America should be thankful that not of one these fools will be president.  It is intriguing to watch the allies of the Democratic Party come to life as enemies of America and the world.  It is the Left that has set the stage for a generation of war.
