The World Shrugs as Iran Builds Its Nuclear Bomb
(Wall Street Journal) Editorial - If Iran goes nuclear within the next year or two, don't blame the inspectors at the International Atomic Energy Agency. The UN team issued yet another damning report on the mullahs, describing a pattern of deception and non-cooperation that all but screams "bomb program." Yet as IAEA member states meet in Vienna, the consuming issue will be whether to "deplore" Iran's deceptions or note them with "serious concern." Privately, the Iranians are pleased as punch that the IAEA will yet again fail to refer them to the UN Security Council for sanction. The "multilateral" diplomatic path is failing. History will not look kindly on the leaders who let Iran get the bomb on their watch.
