Iran nuclear program in shambles?

The Observer tells us that knowledgeable specialists believe Iran's nuclear program is in a state of chaos.

Iran's efforts to produce highly enriched uranium, the material used to make nuclear bombs, are in chaos and the country is still years from mastering the required technology.

Iran's uranium enrichment programme has been plagued by constant technical problems, lack of access to outside technology and knowhow, and a failure to master the complex production-engineering processes involved. The country denies developing weapons, saying its pursuit of uranium enrichment is for energy purposes.

I have no independent evidence, but it seems to me that this is exactly what our own intelligence experts were saying up till a few months ago, when the Bushies decided to launch their propaganda war on Iran.

Frankly, I'm inclined to believe anyone who disagrees with the position our government takes on almost anything. Bush and his buddies have proven time and time again that whenever there is a choice between lying and telling the truth, they will lie.
