 The US State Department has said it has no information about the alleged links between Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan and Iran's nuclear programme, but added that Pakistan has done a lot to break the scientist's network.
| "Nope. Nope. It's all rumor and innuendo, see?" |
"I don't have any information to share with you about the connection between AQ Khan and Iran," the State Department deputy spokesman said when asked to confirm a claim by an Iranian opposition group that Dr Khan supplied enriched uranium to Tehran.
| Oh. Wait a minute. It's not that he doesn't have any information, it's that he doesn't have any to share. There's a diffo. |
| Um, as in, "we can say no more"? |
"I would tell you that, obviously, Pakistan has acted, I think, decisively to break up and dismantle the AQ Khan network or working to find out where its tentacles reach; and that, obviously, this AQ Khan network has had connections with other countries and it's certainly a subject of interest, but I don't have anything specific to share with you on it", the spokesman said.
| "We'll let you know if anything gets declassified, but for now we'll continue beating Perv over the head with it behind the scenes. Now go peddle your papers." |
