: "Mohamed M. ElBaradei, the director-general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said he was taken aback during a recent trip to Libya by the scale and complexity of the illicit trafficking through which it obtained material and blueprints for nuclear weapons designs.
'All of that was obtained abroad,' he said in an interview during the World Economic Forum meeting here. 'All of what we saw was a result of the Wal-Mart of private-sector proliferation.'
'When you see things being designed in one country, manufactured in two or three others, shipped to a fourth, redirected to a fifth, that means there's lots of offices all over the world,' Dr. ElBaradei said. 'The sophistication of the process, frankly, has surpassed my expectations.'"
