During this morning's press conference, president Bush mentined that he had declaired that he "does not believe that Iran wants to build a nuclear bomb" when he met with Vladimir Putin in Austrailia. Yet when NBC's David Gregory tried to ask Bush about the issue during the conference, specifically a radio broadcast in which Syria proclaimed that Iran was in the process of building a nuclear weapon, the president refused to comment on this. When the issue was brought up again later on in the conference, the president then proclaimed that he did not believe that Iran has the capacity to build a nuclear bomb, although he was well aware that they want to. Now I may be wrong, but the last time the president "did not believe that (a group) had the capacity to do something" and subsequently decided to act only in light of his own beliefs, it resulted in the largest terrorist attack in the history of the United States.
