-- Mohamed ElBaradei, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), speaking at CNN's "Late Edition"
2007-10-28 "I have not received any information that there is a concrete active nuclear weapons program going on right now.
Even if Iran were to be working on a nuclear weapon ... they are at least a few years from having such a weapon.
At this stage we need to continue to work through creative diplomacy ... as I don't see any other solution than diplomacy and inspections."

2007-09-03 ElBaradei: That's my greatest concern, a horror scenario. I'm not thinking about a nuclear weapon. No terrorist organization has the necessary know-how or potential to acquire these weapons. But a small, so-called dirty bomb containing radioactive material, detonated somewhere in a major city, could cost human lives and set off massive terror with serious economic consequences. Sometimes I think it's a miracle that it hasn't happened yet.
-- Mohamed ElBaradei, United Nations chief weapons inspector, in an interview with Spiegel
2007-06-14 The next few months will be crucial ... Iran is building a capacity, a knowledge" of enrichment that is irreversible, while not providing evidence sought by IAEA "that this is a peaceful program."
