Rep. Jane Harman Discusses U.S. National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) (Iran May Have Nuclear Bomb Within 3-5 Years)

At least Rep. Harman didn't say nookular. Click through to the entire article to read about Iran potentially getting a nuclear bomb within 3-5 years. I have not seen the intelligence, but I would bet that Rep. Harman is pounding the war drums like the Bush administration did back in 2002-2003. More war equals more profit for the military industrial complex.

U.S. intelligence agencies believe Iran won't be capable of producing nuclear weapons for at least a year but that it probably would be technically able to do so if it chooses within 3-to-5 years, U.S. officials said on Tuesday.

Jane Harman, chairwoman of the U.S. House of Representatives Homeland Security Subcommittee on Intelligence, told Reuters on Tuesday that a revised U.S. National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) on Iran was "essentially complete" but that it was unclear if any of it would be made public after going to the president.
