U.N. nuke czar to U.S.: Disarm ElBaradei says Washington has double standard on arms policy

The head of the United Nations' nuclear-watchdog agency is calling on the U.S. to set an example to the rest of the world by cutting its arsenal of nukes, suggesting Washington is employing a double standard by demanding other nations be prevented from possessing atomic weapons.

Mohamed ElBaradei, who heads the International Atomic Energy Agency, also told Germany's Stern weekly today President George W. Bush is unjustified in pushing a space-based missile-defense plan, Reuters reported.

"The U.S. government demands that other nations not possess nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, it is arming itself," ElBaradei said, according to the report. Addressing the missile-defense technology, he said: "Then a small number of privileged countries will be under a nuclear protective shield, with the rest of the world outside."

ElBaradei told the German magazine the world is at a "turning point" regarding nukes.

"In truth there are no good or bad nuclear weapons. If we do not stop applying double standards we will end up with more nuclear weapons," Reuters reports him as saying.

The global bureaucrat, who has overseen inspections of nuclear sites in Iraq, North Korea and Iran, said the world's five original nuclear powers – The U.S., Russia, Britain, France and China – should send a clear message to the rest of the world by disarming themselves.

The report states under the terms of the 1968 nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the global pact aimed at stopping the spread of atomic weapons, the five original nuclear powers were permitted to keep their nuclear arsenals but agreed to negotiate terms for full global disarmament in good faith.

Here's a flash for you UN airheads - we are the good guys who want to live in peace, and you and your commie/facist regimes that you adore are the bad guys who want to kill us. Now, pound sand.

Link didn't work.

Nice to know the UN is working with our enemies to disable us before the next big attack.

Tell me again, why haven't we exterminated them?

[RWR8189]

US to UN Nuke Czar: E.S.A.D.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Sure.
Just give us the coordinates of your home city....

[nuffsenuff]

This al-Baradei guy should be investigated.

He's always making excuses for the bad guys... Iraq... Iran...

And now this?

Something's not right.

[winner3000]

Funny thing is that he's not lifted a finger to disarm North Korea. El Baradei being in such a sensitive position at the UN is as outrageous as Syria and Libya having anything to do with UN Human Rights commissions.

[never4get]

Why oh why do we invest hundreds of millions of dollars in the UN. OMG, how stupid is this person?????

[Orangedog]

And just how many of these U.N. member nations would soon be ruled by the Chinese if we all dismantled our nukes?

[NRA2BFree]

E.S.A.D.

lol Exactly what I was thinking! :)

[DiamondDon1]

U.S. to U.N. "Sure come on in and get them, but don't forget to bring your military."

DD

P.S. To Loser Czar: Remember the French don't count as military...

[tractorman]

Pound sand is right!

I wish the UN would go the way of the League of Nations.
We should just quit and kick them out of New York.

[ChemistCat]

hahah! Yeah. "What weapons of mass destruction?"
