Lucky Hans: When All the Sarin Turned To Laughter

Hans Blix uses the f-word, and it's not "fourteen-forty-one." Team America fans will be amused—or not—to find the formerly controversial weapons inspector goofing on his supermarionated effigy. Thanks to mediageek for the link.

Back when Blix was a radioactive public figure in a figurative though not literal sense (and weren't those the days), I gave the preternaturally calm bureaucrat one and a half cheers.

Bonus discussion of Lance Rentzell's When All the Laughter Died in Sorrow.

No, no, no, Coach, that's outrageous! We are not determined to go to war. Saddam can avoid war any time he wants, just by disarming.
