West 'humiliating' Iran, says Hans Blix

Former chief UN weapons inspector Hans Blix said Monday the United States, Europe and the UN Security Council are ''humiliating'' Iran by demanding that it suspend uranium enrichment before any negotiations and then dictating its rewards.

'The first incentive, I think, is to sit down with them in a direct talk rather than saying to them 'you do this, thereafter we will sit down at a table and tell you what you get for it,''' Blix said. ''That's getting away from a humiliating neo-colonial attitude to a more normal (one).''

''People have their own pride whether you like them or don't,'' he told a media briefing ahead of a daylong conference on ''Weapons Threats and International Security'' organized by The Century Foundation, a Washington-based research institute on domestic and international challenge

Sounds like he is still upset about having afternoon teas with Saadam brought to an end.

Blix is a moron.

No mention of how Iran "humiliated" the United States during the 1979 Tehran hostage crisis, continued threats of violence and support for terrorists, meddling in the Iraq war, and general harassment of our ally Israel.

Typical one-sided U.N. loon.

A good hard squeeze of Blix and a not only could a lot of mysteries be solved, but a lot of lives saved as well.

Blix however is in very tight with the anti-american crowd and with the islamic fundamentalists.

And this is bad because?

Thousands of Iranians were gathered in pro Western demonstrations prior to the Iraq war. Then came the crack down.

And he is in denial that he's set to destroy his own liberty.

Not NEARLY enough. They want a non-military option? International humiliation of Iran all because of Ahmadinejad and maybe they'll remove him internally.
