IAEA's Nuclear Nudge: Playing Along with the Empire's War Drums
Here's what they buried in paragraph 15: The International Atomic Energy Agency, despite its veneer of neutrality, is effectively giving its seal of approval to the ongoing US-Israeli belligerence against Iran. When the IAEA chief conveniently states that "conflict alone won't end Iran nuclear questions," he's not deterring war, he's merely suggesting it needs a side of 'diplomatic' pressure, the
