Douchebag of the day

ElBaradei: West may have to accept atomic Iran - says the headline in Ynet.

Nuclear watchdog chief suggests compromise may lie in accepting small-scale enrichment in Iran in exchange for guarantees of no full nuclear fuel production that could enable diversions into bomb-making.

IAEA chief Mohamed ElBaradei will make no recommendations in a broad report on three years of probes in Iran he is to give to board members on February 27, a week before they convene to weigh whether to urge a course of action by the Security Council.

But he has already suggested in diplomatic circles that a compromise may lie in accepting small-scale enrichment in Iran in exchange for guarantees of no full nuclear fuel production that could enable diversions into bomb-making, diplomats say.

How small is "small-scale". 5 kg? 10 kg? 20 kg?

Time to resort to our universal confusion symbol:












Yeah...

Update: it seems that in addition to unmasking of the douchebag, Iran helped the world in discovery of a quisling.

Visiting Norwegian Deputy Foreign Minister for the Middle East and Africa Raymond Johansen said on Monday that his country officially recognizes Iran's legitimate right for peaceful application of nuclear technology.

Is it symbolic that the term quisling was born in Norway or is it symbolic?
