Iran Not Moving on Nuclear Bomb Say US Spies

IRAN has not produced the highly enriched uranium necessary for a nuclear weapon and has not decided to do so, US intelligence officials told Congress.
This assessment contrasts with a stark Israeli warning days earlier that Iran had crossed the "technological threshold" in its pursuit of the bomb.
The Director of National Intelligence, Dennis Blair, said that Iran had not made a decision to pursue the production of weapons-grade uranium and the parallel development of the ability to load it onto a capable ballistic missile.
