IAEA chief blasts U.S. for delay on Syria intelligence
2008-04-26
  • White House claims nuclear reactor in Syria bombed by Israel last year
  • International Atomic Energy Agency's chief says U.S. should have told agency sooner
    Isn't that bass ackwards? ElBaradei is the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency. The U.S. would seem to have a major gripe with them over them purposely not noticing such things.
  • U.S. also says North Korea helped Syria build the covert nuclear reactor
  • Syria's envoy to U.S. denies his country worked with North Korea on nuclear program
    "No, no! Certainly not!"

    #9  So they are mad as us for letting IDF destroy a clandestine reactor before they could verify its existence?

    Does that mean if you declare you have one you can do whatever you want? Or does that mean the the freaking IAFA was asleep at the switch again?

    Freaking amazing. He gets the Iranians thumbing their collective radioactive noses at the world and he is put off because we didn't let him go through another political charade over verification?

    Tell me are the inmates in charge of the asylum again?

    #8  I translate that double-speak as "Shame on you, we wouldn't do anything "So you should have done nothing as well"

    How dare you solve the problem when we wouldn't?
    (It goes on and on, but that's the essence. HOW DARE YOU)

    #7  "The director general views the unilateral use of force by Israel as undermining the due process of verification that is at the heart of the non-proliferation regime."

    It's all about the 'process', donchaknow.

    #6  We don't work for you.

    You declared you don't work for us.

    This is then how it works.

    #5  These clowns are starting to realize that muBarak Hussein is not a shoe in for the next President. Their worst nightmare could be a McCain who pushes a league of democracies to the detriment of UN power. We will hear more squealing from Turtle Bay as this reality sets in. October will be a fun month.

    #4  Not trusting a UN agency run by an Arab---shocking! Don't these feral dhimmis realize that Islam cannot win unless they cooperate fully in their own enslavement?

    #3  IAEA is SHOCKED to discover that it is more useless at anti-proliferation than any single member state, never mind the whole UN.

    #2  Notice ElBaradei 'blasted' the US; not Israel who actually actuated the communications blackout and bombing, why...because he knows Israel doesn't give a s*** about his views, and Mossad has his REAL profile!

    #1  El-Baradei should be on the carpet as to why he wasn't aware. Asshole's on the wrong team. Can him
