Hans Blix Sees a Greater Threat from Iran than Iraq of 2003

November 7, 2007 by pulkit

hansblixchairmanunmovic75.jpgMany people are slowly but surely updating their threat perception of Iran and Hans Blix, former chief UN weapons inspector, is among them. He has labelled Iran as a more serious threat than Iraq was in 2003. This might seem to be a bold, lofty statement from the man who inspected the Iraqi weapons facilities and scoured them for chemical or nuclear weapons prior to the invasion of that country (some of you might even accuse him being complicit with the U.S. government). However, he has logical reasons to believe that Iran is a real threat.

He singles out Iran’s belligerent intent to strengthen his case and quickly points out that Iraq, on the other hand, was very submissive before being invaded by the U.S and its allies in 2003.
 

“They have also a large nuclear sector with two nuclear power reactors that are ready to go into operation, research reactors going on, a lot of people and a lot of money.Therefore the suspicions and concerns about Iran and enriched uranium are far more substantial than they were in the case of Iraq.” [source]

    Is it such a surprise that Iran is more of a threat than Iraq was?

    My pet hamster is more of a threat than Iraq was you idiotic baboons.

    Keep proping up anti Islamic dictators such as Olmert, Mubarak, Abdullah and Karimov and there will be serious implications over the next 10 years.

    Well, now, you have unearthed a ulterior, grand plan against Islam. How does Olmert qualify as a ductator - for starters? Anyways its not an argument worth getting into. You are predisposed to believe something.

    I do agree - along with the world - that Iraq was brutal recklessness and a facade. But Iran does pose a substantial threat, which even your highly blessed pet hamster should be able to sight. You do not need to deliberate over the existence of a threat, when the source itself is issuing loud and lucid warnings.

    Tell me what does your lovely, astute and erudite hampster makes of the-wipe-out-of-Israel-comments.

    Please try and reply. You can e-mail me as well. I am not adverse to hearing out your side of story.

    The Guy Behind Ahmadinejad is the serious threat.
