Let me see if I understand things correctly. Nuclear probes were supposed to be conducted to determine if the Iranian government was developing fuel and triggers for nuclear weapons at their nuclear energy/technology facilities. The International Atomic Energy Agency has responsibility for overseeing the conduct of these probes. The IAEA allows the Iranian government to conduct the probes and submit the reports of findings in these probes. I am not making these statements up out of thin air, read this article.
For my two cents how can you call these probes unbiased, fair, respectable? In no other case of investigation has the investigated party ever been allowed to be responsible for conducting the investigation. What a joke IAEA, what a joke international community. If the question of nuclear proliferation is important, then own up to the responsibility and to holding the Iranian government accountable. Accountability mean having outside oversight to ensure that the actor keeps the standards to which the actor has agreed. If the Iranians agree to the standard of non-proliferation then they must allow the outside accountability or they have not truly agreed to be held accountable for upholding the standard.
