The RW said they were lying, putting America in danger, etc. but now the great and wonderful IAEA says Iran is getting nukes and they are so right and Obama is putting the country in danger, etc., ad nauseum.

Gee, I don't get it! :sarcasm:

1. Because now the U.S. has its own pet inspector in charge.
Got rid of those pesky IAEA folks who thought they were supposed to actually investigate what was happening. Now everyone is on the same page. ;-)

2. That charge doesnt hold water. The entire organization hasnt changed.
The rest of the inspectors would complain if the head was making charges that were not true.

The REAL reason is, the IAEA was right in 2002-2003, they are right now, and unfortunately, both times their reports were politicized by those who didn't like them.
