Arab League dismayed by Israeli impugning of efforts of Elbaradei
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Muhammad Elbaradei, saying that the latter had earned the confidence of innumerable officials worldwide.
"I am surprised and disconcerted by the Israeli attack on Dr. Elbaradei and international organizations that seek to enforce the ban on the spread of nuclear weapons," he told a number of reporters here.
He asserted that such nuclear programs, like that of Israel, which are not subject to international monitoring, are a direct cause of instability in many parts of the world.
Moussa underscored the imperative not to have the world tolerate nuclear threats from any quarters, emphasizing that Israel`s position on nuclear matters was not clear, though it smacked of negativity at any rate.
With regard to the Iranian nuclear issue, he counseled patience until Elbaradei submitted his report on the subject to the Security Council shortly. There was no reason, he asserted, for anyone to doubt the veracity or neutrality of the IAEA or its director general.
He boosted the notion that the entire Mideast region would be a lot better off without the existence of any militarily-oriented nuclear programs, including the Israeli nuclear program.
When asked why the Israeli attack on the person of Elbaradei received wide currency in the world, Moussa said he did not think Israel`s attitude toward Elbaradei was championed by too many officials around the world, since most of them realize that the Israeli nuclear program poses as a powder keg in the region.
