he UN nuclear watchdog has unanimously agreed to put the issue of Israel's nuclear capabilities on the agenda of its annual meeting.

After requests by the Non-Aligned Movement and the Arab League, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) agreed to put the issue of Israel's nuclear capabilities on the agenda of the 52nd annual meeting of the UN body.

The move was initially met with protests by the US and Canada but the two countries had to back down from their position after they realized that other member states of the IAEA meeting's presidential board would not support their stance, an informed source told Fars News Agency on Monday.

Israel is believed to possess the only nuclear arsenal of the Middle East but it has so far refused to allow IAEA inspectors to visit its nuclear sites.

USA's power and influence is already waning. That went fast :P


So lets start sanctioning Israel now if they continue to refuse IAEA inspections and refuses to disarm.

Yes we need to kill the only true democracy in the ME.

Well, it's not like the USA hasn't killed democracies before.

Besides, Israel isn't a democracy. It's an Apartheid state with a secret nuclear program who defies and ignores the UN and the IAEA, and who also keeps a whole population under a brutal and illegal occupation, and it bombs it's neighbors, who object to such tactics, on regular basis.

even if all that were true, Israel would still be the most civilized nation in the mideast.

Para, go look up what Democracy means.

Regarding the subject, IAEA has about the same right to inspect Israeli facilities as anyone on this board does.

Exactly. Israel isn't part of the NPT.

I bet they won't demand to investigate Pakistan's military nuke capabilities.

"A gay movie, probably." - Asgard


Into the Wild. A nice little movie about some guy who wanted to abandon the society/civilization and live his life in the wilderness.

He traveled the roads for two years and was dreaming about Alaska.

He finally got to Alaska and lived in the wilderness (in an abandoned bus) for 4 months until he died, 24 y.o.

Based on a true story.

"First off, he spent very little time learning how to actually live in the wild. He arrived at the Stampede Trail without even a map of the area. If he [had] had a good map he could have walked out of his predicament […] Essentially, Chris McCandless committed suicide"

"Because he chose not to buy a map and a compass (items which most people in the same situation would have considered essential) McCandless was completely unaware that a hand-operated tram crossed the impassable river ¼ mile from where he attempted to cross. Had McCandless known this, he could easily have saved his own life.[1] Additionally, there were cabins stocked with emergency supplies within a few miles of the bus, although they had been vandalized and all the supplies were spoiled, possibly by McCandless, as detailed in Lamothe's documentary"

"Nearly five months later, he died of starvation"

I only need to search my pants to find the worlds biggest penis, and the ladies are waiting in line to suck on it.


That said, if I went into the wild I would first make sure to learn how to navigate using a compass and a topographical map. (I learned this in the school (Orienteering) but I've forgotten it now). I would also take a basic-to-advanced survival class. I would buy all necessary equipment, and then start small. Maybe hiking in the woods nearby :P Then after a little bit experience I'd move on to Alaska or more likely, northern Sweden/Norway.
