Israel faces a different world then any of us can even imagine, and I don't blame them for not caving and not relinquishing sovereignity to the fucked up organization that is the UN.

In a part of the world where force and display of power are valued so highly (as well as being a stable, moderate, cooperative democracy in the ME) Israel imo should have the right to retain its regional military superiority as a matter of survival and deterrence.
edit: I see this IAEA visit as a token gesture, more in line with maintaining its own veneer of credibility and consistency more than anything else. If they want to do anything constructive, they'd do well imo to focus more attention on the insane fundamentalist mullahs in Iran who are so desperate to develop their own nuclear arsenal.
