The IAEA safeguards system is flawed to the effect that it is discriminatory to nations who have nuclear weapons and then set up this body to prevent others from having it. The idea that weapons of mass destruction are safe in the hands of a few and should not proliferate has been sonsigned to the dustbin with the US and China covertly encouraging Pakistan develop nuclear weapons. This holier than thou attitude is not in keeping with the time, and the IAEA should now move towards total dismantling of nuclear weapons and ensuring nuclear power tecnology is available to all nations under uniform safeguards. The threat of weapons of mass destruction falling into the hands of terrorists of any hue is basically an American creation, since the Taliban is an American invention to fight a surrogate war against the then USSR in Afghanistan, now gone horribly out of control. Let ALL nations decide to disband their nuclear arsenals under international supervision without hiding any of the weapons and develop a safe nuclear tecnology for public use in generating power, and then let everyone decide if the IAEA is biasedor not. In the present set up it is surely practising apartheid in a new form.
