On the 62nd annivesary of the United States using the atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, Swedish diplomat Hans Blix, chairman of the Commission on Weapons of Mass Destruction, told Swedish Radio News he believes there is a continued threat that nuclear weapons might be used.

Blix says the US, along with Britain, China and Russia, are all developing new nuclear weapons.

However Blix also points out that the Unites States is showing a tendency towards diplomatic solutions, citing the American government’s willingness to cooperate more with the United Nations regarding North Korea.

Yes, it is the US and Britain that make the world more dangerous, not Iran and North Korea. What a doofus.

- I once, successfully, ordered my favorite dish without being aided by Hans.

Pure luck?

You tell me.

Pakistan, India, Israel, France, and the largest nuclear power in the world Canada didn’t make his list. This might be the longest-running case of doofusism in recorded history.

Blix is diplomatically schitzophrenic. The only thing that outweighs his fear of nuclear disaster is his fear of doing anything to prevent it and his hatred for the U.S..

Kim: Hans Brix? Oh, no.

Oh, herro,
great to see you again, Hans.

Hans: Mr. II, I was supposed to be allowed
to inspect your palace today, and your guards won’t let me into certain areas.

Kim: Hans, Hans, Hans. We’ve been through this a dozen times. I don’t have any weapons of mass destruction, okay, Hans?

Hans: Then let me look around so I can ease the U.N.’s collective mind.

Kim: Hans, you’re breaking my barrs here. Hans, you’re breaking my barrs.

Hans: I’m sorry, but the U.N. must be
firm with you. Let me see your whole palace or else.

Kim: Or else what?

Hans: Or else we will be very, very angry with you. And we will write you a letter telling you how angry we are.

Kim: Okay, I’ll show you, Hans.
You ready?

Stand a rittle to your reft.

A rittle more.

Good.

There you go, Hans Brix.

How you rike that,
you f-—ing c-—s-——?

Do you have any idea
how f-—ing busy I am, Hans Brix?

Well, f-— you.
You want inspection?

Well, inspect that, you b-—f—ing piece of s-—.
