Syria voted co-chairman of the IAEA, Israel's on the agenda
How crazy is this, "Syria voted co-chairman of the IAEA" -- Two weeks after Israel's alleged bombing raid in Syria, which some foreign reports said targeted North Korean nuclear material, the UN's nuclear watchdog elected Syria as deputy chairman of its General Conference on Monday. And "the Israeli nuclear arsenal as an item on the agenda of the conference." (Jerusalem Post via Right Bias)
The agenda for the meeting includes the item "Israeli nuclear capabilities and threat." While Iran will be a focus of the discussions, there is no item on the agenda referring to the Islamic Republic by name.Israel's Foreign Ministry had "no public comment" on Syria's election.
But Gerald Steinberg, chairman of Bar-Ilan University's political science department and an authority on nonproliferation, said the election "reflects the absurdity of the political process inside the IAEA."
Somebody explain to me how this happens? The lunatics are running the asylum.

It so reassuring to see that things are back to "normal."

How does a non nuclear nation get to hold a position of inspection over a nuclear nation? The act of inspection could change the issue of proliferation. Those who should know the least suddenly get the keys to the kingdom. This has got to be some of the best news Syria and Iran could ever dream of.

It is simply more proof that the IAEA is a vile group of bastards. Why you have any Arabs or Muslims running this is beyond me. Western Man need not answer to these savages.
