Excerpt: 'The Middle East Should Become a WMD-Free Zone'

Hans Blix was in charge of looking for weapons of
mass destruction in Iraq prior to the invasion.
SPIEGEL ONLINE spoke to him about Iran's nuclear
program, America's conclusion that Tehran may not
be pursuing the bomb, and a WMD-free Middle East.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: It seems rather ironic that US intelligence
agencies were the ones to determine that Tehran abandoned
its nuclear weapons program in 2003. Is the US now, since
the blunders leading up to the Iraq war, taking a closer look
before accusing countries of possessing weapons of mass destruction?

Blix: Yes, there is a new sense of caution. But the initiative comes from US
intelligence agencies, not the administration. They were heavily criticized after
the Iraq war, and this time they don't want to offer up the wrong reasons for taking action.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: An Iranian opposition group known as the
National Council of Resistance claims that Iran has resumed
its military program. How seriously should this be taken?

Blix: It was undoubtedly resistance groups in Iran that exposed the nuclear
program in Natanz to the world for the first time. But claims by highly
committed political opposition groups must always be approached with great caution.
