[...] You’ll be surprised to learn this morning that the stooge appointed by the UN to prevent an attack on Iran at all costs has surfaced to say that enrichment work at Natanz is slowing — even while satellite photos show construction work in the area is picking up. What can it all mean? The sudden flurry of digging seen in recent satellite photos of a mountainside in central Iran might have passed for ordinary road tunneling. But the site is the back yard of Iran’s most ambitious and controversial nuclear facility, leading U.S. officials and independent experts to reach another conclusion: It appears to be the start of a major tunnel complex inside the mountain… [...]

Blindness reminiscent of those who delayed our attack on Iraq by over six months (so much for the “rush” to war) and gave Saddam ample time to hide and divert his WMD.

“I have no brief other than to make sure we don’t go into another war or that we go crazy into killing each other. You do not want to give additional argument to new crazies who say ‘let’s go and bomb Iran.’”

I like how we’re the bad guys here. It’s not Hussein, who killed several hundred thousand Iraqis, Arabs and Iranians. It’s not the totalitarian government in Tehran who are hellbent to start another war.

Nope, it’s those crazy folks who believe that Tehran is fighting proxy wars until they get the bomb. Then they’ll nuke Tel Aviv. It’s always the US’s fault. Why do we fund the UN?

but the jury was still out as to whether the country even wanted nuclear weapons.

implying that, somewhere, there are at least six people who are confused on that point?

Oh, and the innocent Iraqi civilians dying? That predated the US entry into that country, bub, and won’t decrease if we leave.

We don’t want to bomb the Knowledge, we want to bomb all the fiddly bits that allow you to use the knowledge to do naughty things.

But he said you could not “bomb knowledge”, and he was scathing towards those who still favoured air strikes after the experience of intervention in Iraq.

If you bomb all the people who have the knowledge, sure you can.

Dr ElBaradei said a nuclear-armed Iran would be terrible but the jury was still out as to whether the country even wanted nuclear weapons.

Waiting for the mushroom cloud to appear ……….

[...] Interesting. Like Allah says, most of us thought the IAEA’s job was to prevent Iran, an Islamic extremist regime, from getting a hold of a nuclear weapon. Apparently, we were wrong. Dr ElBaradei said a nuclear-armed Iran would be terrible but the jury was still out as to whether the country even wanted nuclear weapons. [...]

Exit question one: If the west can’t trust him to tell the truth about Iran’s program, doesn’t that force them to err on the side of caution, assume the worst, and end up making an air attack more likely?

I would hope so.
