BEIJING, April 24 (UPI) -- North Korea has nuclear weapons and the ability to deliver them, says International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed ElBaradei.
Speaking in Beijing, Elbaradei told reporters, "North Korea has nuclear weapons, which is a matter of fact. I don't like to accept any country as a nuclear weapon state but we have to face reality," The Times of London reported Friday.
ElBaradei said the addition of North Korea as a "fully fledged nuclear power" makes nine countries in the world that have the capability of launching a nuclear missile. They include the United States, Russia, Britain, France, China, India, Pakistan and Israel.
You mean all those strongly worded letters from the UN didn’t stop them? They won’t stop Iran either.
A couple of months at the most.
So what’s the problem?
You are so right ElBaradei is worthless — little twerp should have been fired a long time ago — reminds me of Baghdad Bob for Saddam.
The relevant part is the “I don’t like to accept any country as a nuclear weapon state but we have to face reality” ritual. It usually precedes some kind of geopolitical readjustment.
He’ll never be fired. He was part of the plan for ALL of our enemies to put something inour faces with an annoying, “Neener-neener-neener!!” thinking that they can get us to bow to their will.
Knowing Obama’s mentality so far.....he’s probably already writing our surrender treaties.
Unfortunately, I agree.
Wait a year or two, and he’ll parse words and say he didn’t mean to say this he meant some other nuance. Not that our useless POS will do anything about this threat, so the normally predicted El Baradei statement may not be necessary. And there may be no audience left alive to hear it.
The blood that will be shed is on his hands.
We will know Iran has nukes when we see a mushroom cloud over Tel Aviv
whew! Im glad thats settled. Now,..where’s my stimulus bailout check?
Thank you Clintonistas!
Kim Jong Il is the demented communist dictator of the utterly failed North Korean police state. While building his own nukes he has also been aiding Iran with its nuclear weapons program, which is also nearing fruition.
North Korea will sell ANYTHING to get hard currency. Thus, we can conclude that it is only a matter of time now before oil-wealthy jihadis or their sponsors in the Muslim world will simply buy a nuke or even several from Kim. In short, al Qaeda will very soon have access to a nuclear bomb or, in fact, already does have one.
The West is ultimately and chiefly defended by the USA, but as we know it is now led by a lunatic Marxist who sees his mission as one of apologizing for US actions of the past (that saved the world from the likes of the Soviets and Nazis and al Qaeda), and the surrender of US military/intelligence advantages to a demented view of the world in which homicidal jihadi terrorists are declared “victims” and extended constitutional rights, while returning US military vets are to be investigated as potential terrorists.
In short, the West has never been more vulnerable to nuclear terror than it is right now, today. America, Britain, Europe or Israel—these are the places that al Qaeda would most likely want to smuggle their new device and in which they would like to create maximum carnage and misery. And, as near as I can tell, there is at best a lukewarm effort—if an effort going on at all—to prevent this from happening.
We are staring now into the abyss and we are led by idiots.
elbaradLIE is a totally biased source. I believe NOTHING he says. He will say whatever is anti-US, pro-leftomuzzie.
The United States could have ended North Korea’s nuclear ambitions decisively and at relatively modest cost in the early 1990s. But Clinton was president, and Jimmy Carter was his envoy sent to broker a deal with Kim Il Sung.
And broker a deal he did.
We’re living with the consequences today.
“We are staring now into the abyss and we are led by idiots.”
Yes but you are not alone :)
