Soooo, is it your position that there should be a religion test of the head of the IAEA that would include only the Jewish or Christian faith?
Or would a Buddhist be OK?
Because as for the Jewish faith, well, why isn`t Israel in the program?
And, if we`re only going to trust the Christians, well, then how can all of the Arabic countries that are jumping on the nuclear power bandwagon have any confidence in their security?
One would think that the outlandish action by ElBaradei in sending the Iran case to the US-controlled UNSC in the first place would provide confidence in his impartiality.
He did, after all, win the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on non-proliferation issues, and his agency is the one the world leaders have created to protect us from the militarization of nuclear technology.
Its the agency, not the religion of its director, that Iran wants in charge.
