Sorry, T, but as per usual, you are on the fictional side of the "facts"...

October 17th: " If Iran had a nuclear weapon, it would be a dangerous threat to world peace. We got a leader in Iran who has announced that he wants to destroy Isreal. So I told people that if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be inter4ested in preventing them from having knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weaspon. And... take the threat of Iran with a nuclear weapon very seriously"... George Bush

Seems to me that I fairly well paraphrased what Bush said...

And keep in mind here, T-Bird, that this statement was also made after Bush had been informed that Iran had curtailed its nuclear program back in 2003...
