The Iranian nuclear scientist who claimed to have been abducted by the CIA before departing for his homeland Wednesday was paid more than $5 million by the agency to provide intelligence on Iran's nuclear program, U.S. officials said.

Shahram Amiri is not obligated to return the money but might be unable to access it after breaking off what U.S. officials described as significant cooperation with the CIA and abruptly returning to Iran. Officials said he might have left out of concern that the Tehran government would harm his family.

We have his information, and the Iranians have him."

Amiri arrived in Tehran early Thursday to a hero's welcome, including personal greetings from several senior government officials. His 7-year-old son broke down in tears as Amiri held him for the first time since his mysterious disappearance in Saudi Arabia 14 months ago.

He said CIA agents had tried to pressure him into helping them with their propaganda against his homeland and offered him $50 million to remain in the United States.

Amiri's request this week to be sent home stunned U.S. officials, who said he had been working with the CIA for more than a year.

Another Double-Agent Spy. This guy is a hero in Iran. They're throwing parades for him today. Seriously,can this administration do anything right? Electing inexperienced "Community Organizers" to run our country has consequences. We're seeing them now. Amateur-Hour at the White House for sure. How sad.

The only question now is,how many and what kind of secrets did he steal? This administration really does seem dangerously clueless at this point. People should be very worried about this kind of terrible incompetence. I know i am.
