New Intelligence Report Reveals Iran's Nuclear Weapons Program Still Active

(Fox News) Benjamin Weinthal - Austria's Directorate of State Security and Intelligence wrote Monday in an intelligence report, "In order to assert and enforce its regional political power ambitions, the Islamic Republic of Iran is striving for comprehensive rearmament with nuclear weapons, to make the regime immune to attack and to expand and consolidate its dominance in the Middle East and beyond. The Iranian nuclear weapons development program is well advanced, and Iran possesses a growing arsenal of ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear warheads over long distances." "Iran has developed sophisticated sanctions-evasion networks....Vienna is home to one of the largest embassies of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Europe, which disguises intelligence officers with diplomatic [cover]. Iranian intelligence services are familiar with developing and implementing circumvention strategies for the procurement of military equipment, proliferation-sensitive technologies, and materials for weapons of mass destruction." David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, said, "The Austrian report in general is similar to German and British assessments.
