U.S. intelligence may question whether Iran has an active nuclear weapons program, but Iranian funded terrorist organization Hamas appears to concede the point. In an interview with the BBC, Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal had this to say:

Another key question for Mr Meshaal—does he think Iran should be allowed to have nuclear weapons?

"If Israel possesses nuclear weapons, then every country in the world has the right to possess nuclear weapons," he said.

Perhaps Meshaal (or Tehran) would claim he was only talking as an abstract matter. Again, however, everyone seems to recognize what's going on—except the U.S. intelligence agencies that wrote and approved the NIE report of late last year.
