Hans Blix: Citáty anglicky

“It's true the Iraqis misbehaved and had no credibility but that doesn't necessarily mean that they were in the wrong.”

The Guardian, "One last warning from the man who made an enemy of Bush", June 11, 2003 http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,974970,00.html

“It was to do with information management. The intention was to dramatise it.”

BBC TV's Breakfast With Frost, February 8, 2004

“But in the Middle Ages people were convinced there were witches. They looked for them and they certainly found them.”

BBC News, "Blix criticises UK's Iraq dossier", September 18, 2003 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/3118462.stm
referring to the British and American governments' insistence that there are WMD in Iraq after Blix had already concluded and reported there was nothing to be found

“I found it peculiar that those who wanted to take military action could — with 100 per cent certainty — know that the weapons existed and turn out to have zero knowledge of where they were.”

from an unnamed Swedish radio program, quoted in Mirror.co.uk, "Blix Blasts 'Illegal' US War on Iraq", August 7, 2003 http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/allnews/content_objectid=13263825_method=full_siteid=50143_headline=-BLIX-BLASTS--ILLEGAL--US-WAR-ON-IRAQ-name_page.html

“He's as reliable as a Volvo.”

Colin Powell [citation needed]

“I have my detractors in Washington. There are bastards who spread things around, of course, who planted nasty things in the media.”

The Guardian, "Blix: I was smeared by the Pentagon" June 11, 2003 http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,974998,00.html

“There was a very consistent creation of a virtual reality, and eventually it collided with our old-fashioned, ordinary reality.”

On the U.S. attitude regarding alleged Iraqi weapons of mass destruction as a justification for U.S. military action, as quoted widely in the media including the Boston Globe article "Newsview: U.S. reports no weapons in Iraq", September 18, 2004 http://www.boston.com/news/world/middleeast/articles/2004/09/18/us_leaks_report_of_no_weapons_in_iraq?mode=PF
