Aside from the hacking and Whodunit, if the distinguished U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) mission is to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons in the world then they are doing a remarkably lousy job when it comes to Israel’s uninspected/unchallenged nuclear stockpile.

boreal: if your reading comprehension were up to par, you would know that Israel, like India and Pakistan (both of which officially admit possession nuclear weapons), is not a signatory to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). Israel has no obligations under the treaty, nor does IAEA have any authority wrt to it in Israel.

By contrast, Iran is a signatory to the NPT (and has not withdrawn its signature like North Korea), but has been found to be non-compliant since 2005.
