#2 Guess he's pissed that he didn't get the Peace Nobel Price and just felt he needed to say something...

#3 "But the world is not any safer. If this was meant to be a signal to terrorists to stop their activities, it has failed miserably

This dude just doesn't get it.

#7 The world is better off without Saddam.

But the world is not any safer.

Those Israelis who endured the routine Palestinian terror attacks that Saddam so lavishly rewarded might disagree rather pointedly with Blix's idiotic statements.

UN officials have an ability to make completely self-contradictory pronouncements that go well beyond mere stupidity or typically ingrained political bias. Once and for all time, the UN's dithering and limp-wristed posturing over Darfur has shown these overpaid and underworked drones for what they truly are. Namely, blood-sucking parasites who shamelessly feast upon abject human misery as they prostitute themselve to terrorist Arab anti-Semitism.

If the UN's entire diplomatic corps were to perish amidst unspeakably agonizing and hideously brutal slow torture, I probably would still find it within myself to applaud with great vigor. Especially so if Kofi Annan headed the queue. These leeches have supped upon human flesh with their grotesque mockery of international peacekeeping. May they one and all rot in firey hell.

#8 Well, considering that Blix hasn't been right about anything for more than 10 years.

What with Iraq's many and sundry varieties of WMDs being dismantled while Hans was busy taking bribes. And shipped to the Bekkaa weeks before Shock & Awe.

I have trouble adding to his credibility streak right now.

Jack.

#9 I always wondered how much Hans Blix was paid since so many others at the U.N. were on Saddam's payroll and demanded Bush not remove Saddam for 'diplomatic' reasons....of course.

#10 Not only didn't he get the Peace Prize, but apparently no Oil for Food bribes either. Irrelevent and poor -- a bad, sad combination!

#11 Thanks, Blixie. My day's not complete without you giving me your opinion on world affairs.
Now get back to bolivian, where you belong.

#13 This from a man whose very name has become synonymous with expressions meaning "To screw up", "To be wrong on every count", "To be hopelessly mistaken". As in, "You really stepped on your Blix."

#14 Naw, we'll all just join Hans and sing... "Kumbayah, my Lord, kumbayah..."

Would Hans Blix even call upon the Lord for anything at all? Is he religious?

#15 But Hans... the Iraq War did put Col. Qaddaffy off his nuclear ambitions. That's not too shabby considering NO ONE KNEW he had them in the first place.

#16 Hans Blix is absolutely right!

The War on Terror has made terrorism worse....

... for the terrorists.
