El-Baradei should be fired....

He's quite ok with the destruction of Israel...
The top U.N. nuclear proliferation official refused to take a position on whether Israel should exist as a Jewish state.

In an interview with the Washington Post published Sunday, Mohammed ElBaradei argued for establishing trust between the West and Iran, blaming both sides for inflaming rhetoric.

ElBaradei, who directs the International Atomic Energy Agency, likened a positive outcome to such talks to Japan, a country that runs the full nuclear technology cycle without international opprobrium, "because there is trust that this country is not aiming to develop nuclear weapons." The interviewer challenged him, noting that Japan does not advocate the destruction of another country, as Iran does with Israel.

"There have been a lot of offensive statements, frankly, on the part of Iran, although from what I understand, Iran wants a one-state solution -- not, as reported in the media, that Israel should be wiped off the map," ElBaradei responded.

That, the interviewer noted, would end Israel's status as a Jewish state.

"I'm not taking sides on that," ElBaradei replied.
