Former IAEA Chief and current Egyptian Presidential candidate Mohamed ElBaradei has given a high profile interview to Der Spiegel this week. Though the interview largely centers around domestic politics, it also delves into his IAEA experience, particularly with respect to the attempts to broker a deal on Iran.
ElBaradei reported that he was “on the verge of a solution on several occasions” and that politics had always foiled the efforts. In particular he accused US and European officials of withholding important documents.
“They weren’t interested in a compromise with the government in Tehran, but regime change – by any means necessary,” reported ElBaradei. He also noted the difficulty of trying to broker talks under these circumstances.
ElBaradei is releasing his memoirs of his time as IAEA chief in a book to be released next month. It is expected to detail his diplomatic efforts with Iraq (before the 2003 US invasion) as well as Iran and North Korea.
Well,there are important documents held by US and European officials and its not appear in the "free media "of the" free world".These officials want to push their people to die on lies and to kill on lies.These officials are for sure the same who wanted the intervention in Libya to "save "lives".It is so strange and disgusting and the feel that no one makes efforts to stop the insanity.Thanks Mr.El Baradei ,maybe you could add much more.
“They weren’t interested in a compromise with the government in Tehran, but regime change – by any means necessary,”
1- This has been the western democracy – attitude practiced toward nations in Middle East.., from Palestinians overdue troubles with Israel, to Iran and Iraq, Syria and Lebanon and etc.., they never ever been questioning the Saudis or other tyrants regimes in the region and when they have its been a honorable gift for these regimes brutalities toward people. Is a double standard, is a double moral and above all it shows that west never was or is interested in democracy but rather sees its profits first before whatever their understanding of democracy might be.., if such thing exist or is a double language from a fantasy land where the true tyrants are treated as if it was them who own the westerns democracy and therefore they are immune from any attacks or a political statements or criticisms by the west.
2- Not that the Iranian regime is less evil then these imbeciles are.., yet it show how democracy is translated by the west when it calls itself a “civilized” societies and when they call upon their people condemning in forehand people of everywhere saying.., “they are against us because of our way of life“. No Mine Herr and Mine Frue.., there is no animosity toward any nation by any nations accept when you use your militarism regime and you speak a double language then you do create the animosity. The west has done so for a long time, it has become a habitual language of the west.., to the points that even the speakers believe in their lies about democracy.., I just wonder if they ever be able to stop.
The United States has only itself to blame for much of the Middle East Problem starting way back when Eissenhower allowed the CIA to go from an Intelligence gathering operation, to one that was allowed to operate Covert actions. Much of it without OVERSIGHT.
The overthrow of the Elected Government in Iran just because BP a BRITISH company (not even a US company)wanted its Oil leases back after Iran had the Temerity to effectively kick the British out was the Start of Major Problems.
From then on the interference has been huge, much of it to exclude the Chinese and the Russians from gaining oil exports from middle Eastern Countries.
It needs to sow discord to effect regime change, trying to tie them to AlQaeda wont work because they are opposed to Bin Ladins Form of Islam, So it has to be Nuclear weapons threats, regardless that the IAEA continue to give them clean bills of Health even Now.
Any government that doesn't submit to israel is in danger of being removed by the example democracy to the world, the US, and by the only democracy in the Middle East, our beloved israel. Never mind who the people of other countries elected, that's irrelevant. Unless they get the seal of approval from israel, they've got to go.
These are Hillary Clintons word at the a dinner Gala – meeting with foreign ministers of Qatar and Jordan and the secretary-general of the Organization of Islamic Conference.
“Clinton acknowledged that the ''long Arab winter has begun to thaw'' and after many decades, a ''real opportunity for lasting change'' has appeared before the Arab people. It, in turn, raises ''significant questions'' but it is not for the US to provide all the answers. ''In fact, here in Washington we're struggling to thrash out answers to our own difficult political and economic questions,'' she said“.
If there was a question session after the meetings arranged or not I don’t know.., but here are my questions: were there any other Muslims’ then Sunny Muslims invited there.., I am asking this because Hillary Clinton is a democrat and my question is based on the concept of the wording.
2- playing with words is the most easier thing that people in her caliber can do.., so my question is based on this wording ''long Arab winter has begun to thaw'': what is the meaning of this in political terms regarding Israel stealing the Palestinians land, insulting the nation and ignoring the peace process, would possibly be a threat to the Iranians Shiite regimes or Israel, or is this have a simple meaning as.., Ok you paying us for the services provided in Libya.., this is the last thing we are going to do for you.., from here on you are on your own.., but you can deal with Sarkozi or Cameron from now on…?
3- continuing my questions: ''real opportunity for lasting change'' she says: is this includes the terrorist groups as Al Queida and other Sunny Muslims whom are feed by the Saudis and rest of the Kingdome tyrants in the region.., or those whom US and EU have contact with and fighting in Libya.
4- Peace is the essentials in human life, why is it that Hillary Clinton in one hand and EU in the other willing to support bunch of terrorists in Libya and thereby prolonging this war, but not willing to have a talk about peace in Libya, is that the meaning in this protocol when she says: ''real opportunity for lasting change'' . Is that what she means a opportunity for terrorism as well. Is she trying to trap these elements later in time and start bombing them when its 200% proven that they are nothing but terrorists.
The Bush Sr. used the same tactic in Afghanistan, is that the new Obama doctrine dividing people of religious and then killing them later.
5- “Organization of Islamic Conference” .., these three words has a meaning and is about Islam.., why the Shiites Muslims from Bahrain where not invited or if she is a women for peace then why not a Palestinian or a Jewish representative were invited to face the allegations and for Hillary Clinton to find a solution and to begin with stop the Israelis’ stealing the Palestinians lands and houses.., I think she is smart enough and above all she got the state department money and the kingdoms contributions to the Obama reelection to prove that. In another word, democracy has become a tool bought and sold by the Kingdome tyrants family and we the people are been screwed and left with nothing.
Compromise, you say? As long as there is Oil in the Middle east and fascist wahabbies are in power in Arabia, there will not be an end to this hypocrisy. The old colonial rulers with do what ever they can to keep their Toe hold or the Zionist entity there to control the flow of oil.
It is curious that Mr. El Baradei has suddenly decided to come clean about US's refusal to deal with Iran. After all, he did cover up a great deal for the US and got a Nobel Peace prize to show for it.
Some examples include pressure from the IAEA during his directorshp for WHO to withhold permission from Dr. Keith Baverstock on the devastating effects of depleted uranium in Iraq. El Baradei also refused to condemn S. Korea and Egypt's violation of the NPT yet went along with the illegal referral of Iran to the UNSC. So what is Mr. El Baradei up to and who does he want to fool?
Although what he says is very true, I question his motivation. Trust him? Never.
That Nobel Peace prize might serve for toilet paper in an emergency, but it's about worthless other than that. They give those to any warmonger. Didn't the jewish leader get one?
You mean Obama? oops, course, yes, Peres got one too. I wonder if Netanyahu will get one next.
You guys can get one too.., just right a assay about how and what to lie about.., then you pint point the time when you are going to start a war and with whom then the Norwegian or for that matter the Swedish Oil companies (Nobel Peace academy) or those from Sweden or Norway that are involved in BP or other oil companies will decide.., but for sure you will get one just pretend that you are the USA president and disagree with George W. Bush but willing to bail out the Goldman “Sacks” (full of money) or others.., making sure that they are paid by peoples money.., then you need to make sure that you talk a lot about how you are going to cooperate with Republicans to stop the Oil companies profits and now that you are in it you can mimic that you are Martin Luther king showing that you are like him.., and you know the rest.
