Former President Bill Clinton on Thursday said the Bush administration should not take action against Iraq without guidance from chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix and the support of Europe.
"We should let Blix lead us to come together," Clinton said, addressing members of a synagogue. "Everyone knows [Iraqi President] Saddam [Hussein] needs to disarm or get out of town ... [but] he won't do it unless the world is united."
Calling Blix a "tough, honest guy who is trying to find the truth," Clinton said the Bush administration should support the head weapons inspector.
Blix will give a progress report to the U.N. Security Council on Friday.
Clinton said any "pre-emptive strike" against Iraq by the United States should come only with the support of Europe, including NATO members France, Belgium and Germany.

"We should let Blix lead us to come together," Clinton saidIn the US, we elect our leaders, rather than follow those appointed by foreigners to lead us.

Clinton commenting like this is a disgrace. I hope someone burns up the lines telling him to butt out. He should be called on this by the pontificators. It is really a dangerous and reckless thing to do.

Far Far Away, maybe never neverland with Micheal. He might need some company soon.
They'll both be on suicide watch if things get any worse.

Oh yeah, Bubba X42, of course Hans Blix is just the sort of idiot we want telling us what's best for us. Kind of like your bent self.

Bubba wants y'all to submit the supremacy of the UN......just like us!
Sure Iraq will be disarmed.....but wouldn't it be quite a triumph for Kofi and Co. to have it their way?
To: estjohn
There is no depth to which he will not stoop, no sickening hypocrisy he will not utter, in his quest to be UN Secretary General.
Has anyone checked his forehead for a 666?
To: Mo1
Hey! Don't mock Bill. His advise is INVALUABLE because if you do the exact opposite, you'll never be wrong.
To: estjohn
The Man never stops campaigning.....crimoney if he ever had to handle a real situation ( not a pr one) he'd stumble bumble and trip over his own tool!
This quote is amazing...
"Clinton said any "pre-emptive strike" against Iraq by the United States should come only with the support of Europe, including NATO members France, Belgium and Germany
Once again campaigning to rule the world....with no regard for those "who he supposeddly " presided over.....this man is frankly just lower than dirt.
Those who were murdered on 9/11 should haunt his soul forever.....end of my rant.
