Remember that song on Sesame Street? One of these things is not like the other? Well, here’s a real-life example of it.
The United Nations nuclear watchdog agency begins its annual meeting Monday, where it looks set to wrestle with how to deal with Iran, North Korea, Syria and Israel.
Iran: Signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Building a nuclear bomb in violation of the NPT. Not letting IAEA inspects see all its nuclear facilities.
North Korea: Signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Built and exploded nuclear bombs in violation of the NPT. Not letting IAEA inspects see its nuclear facilities.
Syria: Signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Built and exploded nuclear bombs in violation of the NPT. Not letting IAEA inspects see its nuclear facilities.
Israel: Not a signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
One of these things is not like the other. Welcome to Israeli Double Standard Time. But not to worry! It only occurs on days that end with a “y”.
