Hmmm, now I'm confused.

In October 2002, a National Intelligence Estimate report stated that "Iraq has continued its weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs in defiance of UN resolutions and restrictions. Baghdad has chemical and biological weapons as well as missiles with ranges in excess of UN restrictions; if left unchecked, it probably will have a nuclear weapon during this decade."

So then, are we to trust the conclusions stated in this new report on Iran from this same government body?

And, if they were wrong about Iraq in 2002, then why couldn't they also be wrong about Iran in 2007?
