O.K.
Now I understand a little more of the machinations behind the statement.
So this is my view of recent events. I just couldn't understand why one department of the U.S. government would contradict the president in relation to Iran's nuclear capacity. I'm sure that any statements of such magnitude couldn't get a release without White House approval.
The violence in Iraq has subsided over the last few months with a reduction in the loss of both military and civilian lives. This could not have been achieved without a cutback by Iran in their supply of weaponry and subversency. Could there have been a behind the doors agreement here? That the U.S. would accept Iran was not producing nuclear material for anything other than peaceful purposes?
Now comes the Cheney statement. Too upbeat to be convincing unless he is aware of future U.S. Iranian plans that the rest of us are not privy to.
