Rep Markey charges * with breaking IAEA non-proliferation rules
First * wants to sell latest generation F-16's to India and Pakistan, bitter enemies who both have nuclear weapons and have not signed the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, now he wants to exempt India from provisions of the IAEA

Rep. Ed Markey (D-MA7), one of the good guys, has called * on this. The press release is in pdf format, which I cannot convert to text, but provide a few lines. The entire release can be read at http://www.house.gov/markey/Issues/iss_nonpro_pr050718.pdf

Bush breaks IAEA rules, announces new nuke policy with India….what other countries are on the list? Pakistan? North Korea? Iran?

2. "Rules, what rules, we don't need no stinkin' rules!" Kick-Recommend
Well, there you have it. We're breaking them all over the place. We are even handed, though, since we allowed our "great good friend" Packistan to shield that Khan character who admitted to selling nukes on the open market. He belongs in a cell right next to the Rovester.

4. "To adopt that kind of course in the nuclear age would be evidence...
... only of the bankruptcy of our policy--or of a collective death-wish for the world."
