UN LEADS WORLD TOWARDS NUCLEAR WAR
2006-11-02
Mohamed ElBaradei, director-general of the U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency, makes it very plain why the U.N. has become the Trojan horse of nuclear proliferation. In an interview with Newsweek magazine on Oct. 20, Mr. ElBaradei laid bare his plan -- guaranteed to lead the international community into nuclear war.

His overall outlook toward nuclear proliferation, he explained, has two prongs. No. 1, the problem with Iran and North Korea is "not really leader-specific. It is country-specific: a country feeling insecure. And if it sees that the people in the major leagues are relying on nuclear weapons, it will at the very least be tempted to do the same."

It is interesting to speculate how Iranians and North Koreans have managed to communicate to Mr. ElBaradei that they really want to use their precious resources on acquiring nuclear weapons, given "criminal justice" systems that include torture, amputation and stoning. Of course, Mr. ElBaradei brings to bear two personal perspectives on the subject of "country feelings." He hails from the Arab world, the least democratically inclined neighborhood on earth, and has a long professional career in the U.N., where one state-one vote masquerades for "international democracy" regardless of the Castros, Hu Jintaos or Mugabes casting the ballots.

#1  So what would Mr. ElBaradei propose as a way of extinguishing this heartfelt longing for weapons of mass destruction beating in the hearts of the Iranian and North Korean peoples? In his words: "the Korean situation, the Iran situation -- these problems hinge, in my view, on the parties sitting together." No sanctions of any kind for this master of international double-talk. The solution is not to isolate the leadership that terrorizes the population, but to sit down, talk and further empower their prison wardens.

ElBaradei left out the part about the four star catering and the limousines and the international travel junkets. Other than that it's a perfectly good plan of talking to death the enemies of freedom

Part two of the plan championed by Mr. ElBaradei -- the recipient of one of the most ignominious Nobel "Peace" Prizes of all time -- is to promote moral relativism. Says Mr. ElBaradei: "The second myth is that nuclear weapons are OK in the hands of 'the good guys' and not OK in the hands of 'the bad guys' ... We need to have a system that is not based on subjective considerations." Such a statement coming from the head of the organization intended to prevent nuclear war should send a chill down the spine of peace-loving people everywhere. The obscenity that there is no good and evil, or that such ideas are merely subjective, is the ultimate rallying cry for those who hate democracy and everything America stands for. It is also the antithesis of the IAEA mandate, which by Mr. ElBaradei's own admission is "an organization that is asked to sit and judge member states."

Moral relativism must eventually be identified as the intellectually bankrupt concept that it is. A host of vile and outright dangerous situations persist due to its application. Female genital mutilation, nuclear proliferation, theocracy, child labor and child sexual abuse all prevail as these dilettantes dither over philosophical hairsplitting and moral minutae.

If Iran ever goes nuclear, ElBaradei should be brought up on criminal charges. This man is the enemy of all free nations.
