"Nine years ago, U.N. weapons inspectors urgently called on the International Atomic Energy Agency to demolish powerful plastic explosives in a facility that Iraq's interim government said this month was looted due to poor security. The chief American weapons inspector, Charles Duelfer, told The New York Sun yesterday that in 1995, when he was a member of the U.N. inspections team in Iraq, he urged the United Nations' atomic watchdog to remove tons of explosives that have since been declared missing. Mr. Duelfer said he was rebuffed at the time by the Vienna-based agency because its officials were not convinced the presence of the HMX, RDX, and PETN explosives was directly related to Saddam Hussein's programs to amass weapons of mass destruction."
Now, let's take a look at this ElBaradei guy. On his watch, India and Pakistan get to the brink of nuclear detonation. On his watch, Libya gets away with a nuclear weapons program that nobody knows they have. On his watch, the Iranians continue to build a nuclear weapons program and nothing's been done about it, and now, within the past three months, it has been learned that the United States hopes to get rid of Mr. ElBaradei and replace him at the Atomic Energy Agency because they collected intelligence that he was providing advice to Iran on how to avoid sanctions from his organization for its uranium enrichment program, and this is the guy that is largely closely tied to the New York Times story that is obviously a fraudulent story and is misleading and is designed to impact the outcome of an election. Mohammed ElBaradei, I don't think this guy has ever been a real friend of America, but if this is true that he's helping Iran avoid sanctions and avoid discovery of its uranium enrichment program, ladies and gentlemen, this is serious stuff, and this is John Kerry's agency. This is the place John Kerry wants to go, this is the place John Kerry will not criticize, these are the things John Kerry knows he will not criticize. He will not lift a voice or a finger in criticism of the United Nations, but, boy, let the United States come under his glance, and he will criticize and do it happily. He will always rush to blame America first, exonerate his prestigious UN. Newsmax has gone back in time to their archives. Get this. On February 15th, 2003, the New York Times reported on an address to the United Nations Security Council by Mohammed ElBaradei, the UN's chief nuclear watchdog "covered extensively" by the New York Times ElBaradei shared his concern about the removal of high explosives from facilities like Al Qaqaa. He said, "We have also continued to investigate the relocation and consumption of the high explosives HMX," ElBaradei explained a month before the invasion. As I reported earlier, Iraq has declared that 32 tons of the HMX previously under IAEA seals had been transferred for use in the production of industrial explosives, primarily to cement plants as a booster for explosives in quarrying. ElBaradei noted that Saddam's government had even confirmed the movement of the HMX. In quotes picked up by The Times 21 months ago. "The latest slam of the Bush Administration by the combined forces of the United Nations’ International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the New York Times, CBS, and the Kerry campaign, repeats on old pattern. The leading lights of the legacy media have their own agenda, one that considerably overlaps that of the Kerry forces. But the IAEA is not merely driven by animus towards Bush. That United Nations agency also needs to cover up its own ineffectiveness and incompetence by shifting attention and blame to the Bush Administration, while waiting for a more congenial President of the United States to take office, one who won’t be tempted to investigate its numerous inadequacies, nor pursue the investigations of the criminality within its parent. The 'disappearing explosives' incident, in other words, is simply the latest firefight between the US and the IAEA over the UN’s complete and utter failure to enforce the provisions of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) with the nations of the Axis of Evil. This buttresses the story that goes back to 1985 that the IAEA refused to destroy the munitions and bombs in the Al Qaqaa dump. Hans Blix refused to do it on the basis this they weren't part of the WMD program. They were just explosives, it wasn't that big a deal, they had more important things to do. Now these things have gone missing and nobody can tell us, not the New York Times, and not CBS, and not Richard Holbrooke, and not John Kerry, and not John Edwards, and not Joe Lockhart, nobody else in the media can tell us when they went missing. All we know is that the United Nations is corrupt, it is incompetent, it is incapable of enforcing its own resolutions as we know, and they are attempting, working with the New York Times and CBS, to shift blame to the Bush administration. And there's old John Kerry willing to criticize his own country at the snap of a finger to jump in and carry the water for them. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
