WARNING ON IRAN – AT 8:56 A.M. ET:  One day before Bibi Netanyahu makes his historic and controversial speech to Congress on the dangers of Iran, he was given new, powerful ammunition from the UN nuclear monitor.  From Reuters: 

VIENNA - The head of the United Nations' nuclear watchdog said on Monday Iran had still not handed over key information to his staff, and his body's investigation into Tehran's atomic program could not continue indefinitely.

"Iran has yet to provide explanations that enable the agency to clarify two outstanding practical measures," chief Yukiya Amano told the body's Board of Governors in Vienna, echoing a report seen by Reuters last month.

The two measures relating to alleged explosives tests and other measures that might have been used for bomb research should have been addressed by Iran by last August.

"The Agency is not in a position to provide credible assurance about the absence of undeclared nuclear material and activities in Iran, and therefore to conclude that all nuclear material in Iran is in peaceful activities," Amano said.

The West fears Iran wants to develop an atomic bomb. Tehran says its nuclear program is entirely peaceful.

The Agency remains ready to accelerate the resolution of all outstanding issues, he added, but "this process cannot continue indefinitely."

COMMENT:  And remember that the Iranian missile program continues, with Iran developing a missile with a range of 6,000 miles.  The only reason a nation develops intercontinental ballistic missiles is to deliver nuclear warheads.  Those missiles are useless with conventional explosives.  The Iranian missile program alone is proof that the country's nuclear program is military, not peaceful.
