    This was picked up by CSMonitor — one of the better papers:

    Report: Sanctions may be speeding Iran’s nuclear advancement

    “Interviews with Iranian officials and others reveal that tough sanctions are hurting Iran’s economy – but may also be encouraging defiance by a regime more worried about any appearance of capitulation.”
