Here We Go Again

Is the United Nations still relevant? In principal, I understand what the organization is supposed to accomplish. The problem is they have not accomplished anything worthwhile in recent memory. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog, reported that Iran is not cooperation with nuclear inspections. No big surprise there. The IAEA claims that Iran is holding back information on high explosives testing relating to its nuclear program. There is a lot of military intelligence to suggest that Iran is covertly working on an a nuclear weapon. Again this is no shocker, but what is surprising is that the United Nations is once again dropping the ball with regards to Iran. Am I the only person who sees shades of Saddam Hussein and Iraq. If Iran's words and assurances about their nuclear program were true, they would just let the IAEA do it's job and the issue would be put to rest. As I have said before, a nuclear armed Iran is something the world cannot tolerate.
