U.S. Has ‘Eyes’ and ‘Visibility’ Inside Iran Nuclear Program – White House

The White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters today that the U.S. had “eyes” and “visibility” inside Iran’s nuclear program and would know if Tehran had made a “breakout” move toward acquiring a nuclear weapon.

Carney again declined to comment on Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak’s suggestion that President Obama has received a new NIE on Iran’s nuclear program, classifying the threat as “urgent.” But Carney said that the U.S. and Israel were in agreement on the state of Iran’s nuclear program.
