Source: Secret document details Iran's nuclear goals

There could now be written proof that Iran is trying to build a nuclear weapon. Experts say a new top secret document talks about a device that has no peaceful use at all.

Is it the smoking gun?

On Tuesday's American Morning, we spoke with former weapons inspector David Albright, and Robin wright, who is testifying before a House subcommittee on national security today.

    I would be very skeptical of this 'smoking gun'.

    It is very likely a total propaganda piece by the American CIA to pressure America into attacking Iran much like false news leaks were used to pressure America into attacking Iraq.

    An Israeli mossad agent produced a documentary which outlined in great detail that the American CIA had approached a Russian Atomic Bomb scientist with a doctored Plutonium Nuclear bomb trigger blueprint and 'requested' that scientist to deliver those blueprints to the Iranian embassy. The Scientist in the documentary immediately noticed the slight bogus modifications the CIA had made to the actual American Plutonium nuclear bomb trigger and pointed them out to the CIA agents.

    The Russian nuclear bomb scientist dropped off those American plutonium nuclear bomb trigger blueprints along with a unauthorized personal letter which stated that if Iran actually wanted to build a working version, to contact him. The Russian scientist then disappeared from his CIA handlers and hasn't been seen since.

    The alleged 'smoking gun' is very likely the same American Plutonium nuclear bomb blueprints which the American CIA directly gave Iran themselves.

    The average American does not need a "smoking gun".
    We need a President to man up and facilitate an Isreali attack on Iran while we take out North Korea with an air and missle attack.
    We already know Iran exports terror and its weapons worldwide. It is the manufacturer of IED's that kill so many of our military's finest.
    I believe we have a president protecting muslims rather than taking care of business. Evidence being the transfer of GITMO detainees to American soil and giving them the same right as US citizens.
    North Korea and Iran will continue to spin stories and gain time to put America on hold until they achieve their goals. Watch out when Iran has nuclear weapons!! The gutless world nations, who refuse to help America in Iraq and Afganistan, and ourselves will all be held hostage. Time is not our friend. Leadership calls for action before its too late.
