West, Islamic nations split at nuclear meeting

As in the past two years, Islamic IAEA members are expected to put forward a resolution urging all Mideast nations to refrain from testing or developing nuclear arms and urging nuclear weapons states "to refrain from any action" hindering a Mideast nuclear-free zone.

Well, isn't that the stated policy of the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty? What's so controversial about that?? Ohhhh, I see - Israel has nuclear weapons and they won't agree "to refrain from testing or developing nuclear arms...," and the "West" won't pressure them to change their policy. Now, I get it...
