London - British intelligence services believe that Iran is working towards a nuclear warhead, the Financial Times reported Wednesday - one day ahead of a key meeting in Geneva on Tehran's nuclear ambitions. The Financial Times report said that British spies believe Iran has secretly been designing a nuclear warhead since late 2004 or early 2005," in contrast to US assessments, which say Iran gave up weapons design work in 2003.

US intelligence has said it believes that Iran stopped work on building a nuclear weapon in 2003 and did not resume until two years ago.

As world powers prepare to confront Iran on Thursday on its nuclear ambitions, the Financial Times has learnt that the UK now judges that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, ordered the resumption of the country’s weapons programme four years ago.
Iran is already under pressure after the revelation last week that it has been building an undeclared site to enrich uranium.
The UK’s assessment of Iran’s clandestine weapons programme will now add to concerns over Tehran’s capability, suggesting it could be making faster-than-expected progress on its nuclear project.

Well given the fact that the facility recently discovered in Qom looks like a weapons grade enrichment facility is anyone really surprised?
