NK was a signatory only from 94 to 02 so I’m at a loss as to how the IAEA is culpable here.

Our Point yet again. The world "thinks" the IAEA protects it from NUKE's in bad peoples hands. It can't because of it's diplomatic "roots" at the UN. Not being part of the NPT should be irrelevant to the issue.

Fair enough, the USSR contributed to the situation, but in your own words:

ABB built the reactors. N Korea used money provided by Clinton the great.

Therefore, going back to your earlier statement:

so it is left to the US to fix it

The US should therefore expect share the responsibility to ‘fix it’, no?

Perhaps that was the idea all along.

So basically your point is that because of its diplomatic “roots” the IAEA is worse than nothing. Assuming you’re right then would the solution be a new worldwide organization with military “roots”, or should the US be in charge? Also, what would be the determinant factor as to who the “bad people” are… their religion affiliation maybe?

Here is more proof of why the UN needs to get out of the US. IAEA has screwed up yet again. How did they "miss" this one?

We let go the Pakistani scientist that did so much good work for our enemies and their programs. Why not hold Musharraf and him responsible for their wrongs against us? That is far worse.

A completely agree. Pakistain is not our friend. The radical "mullahs" could overthrow Musharraf at any minute. Kahn was let go and I don't know why either.........

It was a back room deal of sorts. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

If anyone should have been invaded it should've been our great ally Pakistan.

So according to this evidence it could also have come from Pakistan? In others words they don't know? In other words it could have come from a multitude of places.

Great evidence...cough.
