a temporary halt to production of nuclear weapons-grade material

I haven't forgotten, even if genius has, that North Korea built its nukes while IAEA was sitting for 10 years watching the place where they weren't building them.

And I haven't forgotten, even if genius has, that neither IAEA nor CIA ever found out about anyone's nukes in time to do anything about them. India? Pakistan? Libya?

And if we do know about them, what? Nothing. We do nothing. Iran is on the way, and all we do is sit around and talk about how its no big deal, if you're a leftist, or darn I wish Israel would hurry and do something about it, if you're a rightist.

ALSO thanks to Clinton appointing Jimmy Carter, and Hans Blix, formerly head of the IAEA - ElBaradei was his sidekick at the time, seem familiar?? - who whined EVEN THEN, LONG BEFORE IRAQ, about not enough info, lack of access and planning 5 year inspection tours.
