Prepared Statement by Congressman Jim Saxton Before the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Terrorism and Unconventional Threats: Iran's Nuclear Capabilities

September 29, 2005

Weapon Program: 

  • Nuclear

It is my view that Iran is on the rise. No other country in the region can rival it and Iran’s influence is strong. As the new Iranian President’s speech at the United Nations demonstrated, Iran intends to pursue its nuclear program – whether or not it is sanctioned by the international community – and it is willing to disseminate its nuclear know-how to others as well.
