In a declassified National Intelligence Estimate, Iran: Nuclear Intentions and Capabilities, the U.S. intelligence agencies announced last December, \”We judge with high confidence that in fall 2003, Tehran halted its nuclear weapons program.\”

This highly controversial conclusion encouraged the Iranian leadership to dismiss the possibility of an American attack, permitting Tehran to stake out an increasingly bellicose position and rendering further negotiations predictably futile.

Hi Mr. Sea.

You know by now it shouldn\’t shock me as to how heartless people really are.

Last week I came out my door and I saw my neighbor across the street looking at her car; she was saying something to my other neighbor.

Then I saw a cat lying under her car. She said to me, \”someone just threw the cat out of the car in front of your house\”. I thought I misunderstood her. She repeated it again, \”somebody pulled up to your house and opened the car window and threw the cat out the window and took off.\”

I checked the cat out and he was ok, no injuries.

We tried to find the car but we couldn’t. We called the police and the cop who answered the call in my opinion was very rude. Like I was bothering him.

I was told there is a building the City has been using for strays and so I asked the cop if we could take this cat there.

He said there wasn\’t such a place.

I know there is one.

We didn\’t want to take him to the county shelter since the county is not a NO kill shelter. The cop says he wasn’t going to take him so let him go.

Tell me this Mr. Sea, wouldn’t I be breaking the no leash law if I followed his instructions.

Please if anyone knows anything about this cat or the person responsible for this horrific act let me know through The NoteBook.  

Thank You Mr. Sea
