ElBaradei: Hurry Up and Do Nothing On Iran Nukes

I can't decide what's more disturbing about this cretin Mohamed ElBaradei, his recalcitrant and oblivious stance toward Iran and its nuclear program or his eerie resemblance to the odious Henry Waxman.

Still, while both of these pose nightmarish visions, we can at least do something about Iran's nukes, and waiting around for this clown to do anything is futile.

Force is last resort in Iranian crisis: nuclear chief
VIENNA (AFP) - UN atomic energy chief Mohamed ElBaradei said Monday that force should not be used yet to resolve the Iranian nuclear crisis, dismissing talk of war as "a lot of hype".

"We need always to remember that use of force could only be resorted to when ... every other option has been exhausted. I don't think we are at all there," the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director general told reporters.

"There is a UN charter and there are rules for the international use of force.

"I hope everybody would have gotten the lesson after the Iraq situation when we see a drama unfolding every day," ElBaradei said, adding that hundreds of thousands of "innocent civilians have lost their lives on the suspicion that a country had nuclear weapons."
Nice to see AFP preface that quote with hundreds of thousands without any reference to such a claim.
