I don't know if I'd call Blix dangerous but I would say that Ignorance is Blix.

Thanks for your comment. I like your pun, but I think it is worse than that - it is not ignorance.

Hans Blix considers himself a good man, better than most, and therefore he thinks he has the right to lie or obfuscate to avoid what he sees as the ultimate evil: war! That he may be wrong, and that leaving Saddam Hussein in place with his WMD would cause much, much more harm in the long run (or not so long run) does not enter his mind. (...and that is stupidity coupled with hubris.)

The news in The Times about the Iraqi drone that Blix hid in his report is typical of his MO.

(Of course there is a certain amount of self-interest as well... )
