Now he's seeking a new job, president of Egypt, and he's singing a new tune:
Former IAEA Chief Mohamed ElBaradei, who is considering contending in Egypt's presidential elections next year, expressed his support for the "Palestinian resistance" while slamming Israel. In a report published Tuesday, the experienced diplomat said that Palestinian violence was the only path open to the Palestinian people, because "the Israeli occupation only understands the language of violence."Nice.
Update: Elder of Ziyon followed the sources of this story and thinks it's not true. Some Palestinian source simply invented it, out of thin air.

This may explain his curious inability to understand Iran's nuclear program, of course.
You mean, "intellectuals"...
In any case, this exemplifies the best way to know a person's true collors: when he's drunk or when running for political office (or both).
You have to hate the Jews and make yourself known as an enemy of Israel to get ahead in Egyptian politics. Its safe to say El Baradei won't be elected President of Egypt any time soon.
