"I don't believe that what I see in Iran today is a current, grave and urgent danger. If a military strike is carried out against Iran at this time ... it would make me unable to continue my work," said the IAEA chief.
ElBaradei, repeatedly stressing that a military strike would be the worst result for the region, added that an attack would give Iran more motivation to obtain nuclear power, Reuters reported.

One more reason to attack—get rid of this muslim.
OK, we have a deal.
Buh-bye.
And that would be bad? How?
My thoughts exactly, an added benefit of such an attack.
Anybody have a problem with that?
Bueller?..........Bueller?.................Bueller?
Fantastic. Two for the price of one.
Precisely. This clown thinks it would be a disincentive. Little does he know he might well have just started a war.
Oh, and take Hans Blix with you when you go! Anyone seen Scott Ritter? “Joe, run down to the Burger King and tell Ritter he’s fired!”
Golly; Dittos to you all.
I see absolutely no downside to this....
In fact, I had a few reservations about doing it before, but this would make them all worthwhile.
He didn’t start a dam thing.
The Hatfield-McCoy stuff between the Arabs and the Israelis has been going on long before he got involved.
It’s getting old, folks. Really old. On both sides.
So now America is gonna get dragged in and be somebodies proxy and bomb Iran? We are talkin WW3 here.
Can the UN human rights committee threaten this too? Please.
If there is a military strike, it will because you've been unable and unwilling to do your work, you moron. You shouldn't be allowed to resign, but be fired. Get the UN OUT of New York.
Nah if Barack Obama ever gets in he won;t have to resign he’ll be given a big pay raise and our weapons will be shipped to Hamas who said they can work with Obama, Hizbullah who said Obama would be good, and Irans’ leader who said he would look forward to an Obama as president as eh can work with him., Aye I bet he can
Yes we have our enemies wanting an Obama win, infact didn’t even Bin ladens sidekick say Obama would be good for America too?
Speals volumes when our enemies all want the same man
I wonder why???????? mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Liberals and dumb arse Obama voters wake up
he was trying to say that the useless POS el Barrier threatening to quit would be the incentive to bomb iran, and we have been in WW3 for years it is our polititians that are afraid to speak the name of the enemy to our world.
I was completely against attacking Iran.... < / s> till now. Sounds like a plan. Let em rip. Wonder if we could strap Mookie Tater to the first bunker buster.
Deal, start packing, pal. A useless collaborator who gives cover to terrorist regimes.
A Hans Blix who prays five times a day.
Who gives a shiite if he resigns?
