Incoming IAEA chief: No evidence Iran seeking nuclear weapons (Obama flunky to take over)
Haaretz ^ | 7/3/09 | staff

The incoming head of the United Nation's nuclear watchdog said on Friday he did not see any hard evidence that Iran was trying to gain the ability to develop nuclear weapons.

"I don't see any evidence in IAEA official documents about this," Japan's Yukiya Amano told Reuters in his first direct comment on Iran's nuclear program since his election to head the International Atomic Energy Agency, when asked whether he believed Iran was seeking a nuclear weapons capability.

Current IAEA head Mohammed ElBaradei told the BBC last month it was his "gut feeling" that Iran was seeking the ability to produce nuclear arms, if it desired, as an "insurance policy" against perceived threats from neighboring countries or the United States.

No evidence that they’re seeking nuclear weapon? Yeah, I’m sure they’re reprocessing Uranium because they really like the “whirring” sound the centrifuges make.

Can these people be any more stupid?

An interesting side note that was not mentioned in this
article. Last week, Mr. Amano also claimed that the
Easter Bunny would be summering atop Mt Fuji this year.

I wonder if he’ll change his mind when Tel Aviv goes up in a fireball?
Blind, deaf, dumb, stupid and corrupt pandering like this needs to be exposed and recorded, because these people need to be held responsible when the worst happens.

(Adjusting tin-foil hat) Otoh, maybe the media/left/pseudoscience cartel is trying to facilitate a nuclear war so they can use “nuclear winter” as an excuse when global warming fails to materialize.
So what if 50 million people are killed, that will only help another of their cherished goals, zero population growth.

If Amano had been around in 1945:

“I see no evidence the Americans have an atomic bomb. The diaster in Hiroshima was caused by a gas leak. A big one. Yeah, that’s the ticket, a gas leak. And the flash was a secondary in a magnesium flare factory.”

No matter who heads the IAEA, the IAEA is a failure.
There is/was proof before there is/was no proof.
The IAEA flip-flops more than Kerry...
