MICHELE BACHMANN: “We have an IAEA report that just recently came out that said literally Iran is within just months of being able to obtain that (a nuclear) weapon.”

RON PAUL: “There is no U.N. report that said that. It’s totally wrong, what you just said.”

Bachmann: “It’s the IAEA report.”

THE FACTS: As Paul said, the report of the International Atomic Energy Agency does not state that Iran is within months of having nuclear arms. The U.N. agency report does suggest that Iran conducted secret experiments whose sole purpose is the development of nuclear weapons but did not put a time frame on when Iran might succeed in building a bomb, and it made no final conclusion on Tehran’s intent.

Bachmann also erred by arguing that Iran has “stated they will use it (a nuclear weapon) against the United States.”

Iran vehemently rejects that it is developing a nuclear bomb, let alone that it plans to drop one on the U.S.
