Liberals call him a moderate but his views align with extremists of the [[Muslim Brotherhood]]. While Director General for the [[U.N.]], El-Baradei led an effort to document [[Iran]]'s nuclear program. He would confirm the Iranian regime was not making nuclear weapons but would publicize that he was disappointed in them not following U.N. rules. [[U.S.]] intelligence believe he was duped by Iran and helped undermine Iran sanctions. Notably, he opposed the [[Iraqi]] war. During Egypt's uprising in 2011, he called the credibility of America lacking under [[Barack Hussein Obama]].
