#3 What, of any substance, can be said in the face of such stupidity except: Why is he still breathing?

#4 I realize the odds are probably far below Zero, but wouldn't it be nice if the UN was the intended target?

By the same token NY is surely safe, the UN would go apeshit.

#5 "What we do not know is if the US continues to develop capacity and there is no disbarment then the atmosphere may change,"

I'm no Albert freakin' Einstein, but it seems that we still retain the capacity to do damage to Iran many, many times over without having to add capacity. Nice try at turning the tables, though.

During his interview, Blix also believed that it was "not very wise" of both the U.S. and Britain not to rule out military adventurism against Iran.

Removing the double negative (classic disinformation technique), it's then wise of us and Britain to rule out military adventurism (wtf ?) against Iran?

Blixie, ol' boy - how many diplomatic efforts have ever succeeded without a credible threat of the use of force (diplomacy by other means)? One example will suffice.

CA's right - Blixie wants us to bend over.

#7 Is ol' Hans suggesting that we show submissive behavior to the alpha dog Iran?

If so then he should just fuck off and die. They are a speck of fly shit compared to the US and EU together. They don't warrant an equal share in world politics, they don't have the population, economy, hell, they don't even have a bomb yet. It hasn't exactly put ol Kimmie over the top has it?
So screw Iran, our way or the highway, because we say so, that's why.

#11 And I think we should forcefully state that we will not abide a bunch of religous maniacs with demonstrated proclivities of slaughtering the infidel neighbors posessing nuclear weapons.

So look at it this way: you can get reasonable, or you can get dead.

#13 Yes, Blixie usually rears his irrelevant head about every two months.
Back in the hole Blixie...

#14 He keeps mentioning "whipping" because he's into S&M. Look it up!

Now if Condi put on a vinyl cat suit and whipped him within a centimeter of his life he would sing our praises.

One sick little twerp!

#15 "There has been too much whipping or threats of whipping all the times"

The mullah (@ss) whipping hasn't even started. Iran must be taken down.

#16 It's been simply ages since poor Mr. Blix was active in the inspecting game. He is no longer qualified to have an opinion. (Not that he actually ever was, since he never really inspected properly, but that's a subject we no longer need worry about, thank goodness!)
