Is Sarkozy smarter than U.S. Intelligence?

To answer the question in the title of this post - YES!

Recently returning from a trip to the United Arab Emrites (UAE) where a deal for civilian nuclear (technology) was signed between the two countries, French President Sarkozy shows he won't be fooled by politically motivated nuclear reports from our intelligence agencies or the dupes from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)....

From Persian Journal --

The French president reiterates his stance on Iran's nuclear activities despite recent reports about the peaceful nature of the program.

"On Iran and its nuclear program, you know the position of France. Nothing which has happened changes my judgment," Nicolas Sarkozy said on Friday.

He was referring to the recent reports by the US intelligence agencies and UN nuclear watchdog both confirming that Tehran's nuclear activities are not aimed at producing nuclear weapons.

With Sarkozy in charge it looks as if the French might slowly being growing a "set."

If he keeps this up - I may have to rethink my position of sending the Statue of Liberty back to them!
