#1 He must hate iranians cuz this is a good way to wind up with a lot of dead ones.

simple sequence:

1. Israel attacked (suitcase bomb, missile or otherwise)
2. regardless of "proof," the assumption will be that iran is behind it
3. massive, disproportionate retaliation

#4 Gee sounds like a rational person to me. I can't think of why Bush doesn't want him to gain access to nukes. Maybe Bush is just a racists? (end sarcasm)

#5 That was the AP headline. This is Reuters:

Iran president: "Zionist regime" a threat

#6 How would the UN/EU pussies like this speech with a few corrections changes?

"TEHRAN, Iran WASHINGTON, D.C. - The president of Iran the United States again lashed out at Israel Iran on Friday and said it was "heading toward annihilation," just days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it successfully enriched uranium for the first time.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Bush called Israel Iran a "permanent threat" to the Middle East that will "soon" be liberated. He also appeared to again question whether the Holocaust really happened.

"Like it or not, the Zionist regime Iran is heading toward annihilation," Ahmadinejad Bush said at the opening of a conference in support of the Palestinians freedom and liberty in the Middle East. "The Zionist regime Iran is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm of Cruise missles and B-52's."

Ahmadinejad provoked a world an outcry from the U.S. and a couple of other decent nations in October when he said Israel should be "wiped off the map." Most, however, grinned from ear to ear and prayed it would be so."


There, how's that? At least it has a ring of truth to it - which is more than the original had.

The LLL and the Dems (but I repeat myself) will say NOTHING about this latest oral diarrhea from Iran. But if Bush had spoken my version, seething would have begun yesterday.

#7 Oh - forgot to mention:

I wish Bush would give that speech.

I've got dibs on the popcorn concession. :-D

#8 Time to stop talking and start bombing

#9 At least we know where he stands. So let's have no whining when the bombs start falling or your head gets blown off.

#10 If I was Israel and the US/West punks out on Iran I think I would just launch a first strike. I would send nearly all my nukes holding enough in reserve to burn every Arab capitol just in case. This would totally annihilated the Iranians weapons economy military hell population while at the same time showing everyone else you are not going out without taking the vast majority of your enemy with ya. And since you just hit the no limits scorched earth level might as well go for gold and have a couple launches fall short just happening to hit the Paleo population centers.

The world hates em anyway so they will still be the wiping post for the UN just short some outside threats that unlike the UN can actually back their rhetoric up.

This is a insane scenario but many would say the same thing about waiting all nice and proper in the corner while the murderer sharpens his knife telling you the whole time how he is going to cut you up first.

#11 So, is ElBaradei still in town? Will these Ahmadinejad quotes make it into his April 28 report to the U.N. Security Council? No, I thought not. The U.N. will condemn the U.S. and Israel when we do the compelling task. And Kerry and Gore and Carter and the Clintons and all the other sorry Neville Chamberlains will paint Bush to be the mad man.

#12 "Its existence has harmed the dignity of Islamic nations."

"It sneaked up behind us and hit us on the head, and then, when we woke up, we were tied over the hood of our car with our pants around our ankles. There was grease and chicken feathers all over our buttocks, and though we tried, we could not break free. Only then we saw Israel, with clown makeup and wearing lederhosen and scuba flippers, and it had broken off our car aerial and was grinning menacingly at us, the Islamic nations. And I can say no more..."

#13 There has got to be something to this. Any game theory strategist's in the house?

Scenario 1
His puppet masters know the Iranian theocracy is doomed and they put this lunatic in power knowing he can mobilize passions against a commom enemy. If we don't attack, their position strengthens. If we do attack, their position strengthens. Either way this lunacy is the only way for the theocrats to keep control.

Scenario 2
He truly is a lunatic with a deathwish believing that glory will come to him and his people if they sacrifice themselves in a glorious fight for Islamic supremacy. Not a good scenario at all - a lunatic with nuclear power that sees more glory in death is the most dangerous lunatic of all.

This is not a good thing.

Our best bet - hard, quick, hard, decisive strike, hard that minimizes collateral damage but is hard enough that the lunatic wing takes a very long nap. Did I mention it needs to be a hard hit?

We're in the midst of watching the rebirth of every lunatic from the 20th century rolled into one coming back to haunt us - and pussies at the UN are fiddling with themselves.

#14 First night of bombing should take out him, his buddies and the mad mullahs with their major personal businesses and assets.

#15 First night of bombing should take out him, his buddies and the mad mullahs with their major personal businesses and assets.

Like we did with Saddam?

Realistically, if the Iranians want to have nut jobs run the country, they will. I don't care if they do. I only care whether they've got nukes. So we bomb and raid and Shermanize to assure that they don't and that they learn there's a penalty. If they make nukes again, we'll stomp them again. That's all that matters, not whether nutjobs run the country.

#16 Their assets especially, NS - they're common knowledge in Iran: factories, MB/BMW dealerships. Make them take an involuntary vow of poverty

#17 This guy sounds as plausible as Baghdad Bob but it is eerily similary to the clownish and outlandish pronouncements Hitler made in the 30s. People laughed then and paid the price later. I think this boy is big trouble and needs to be stomped quick.

#18 My game theory:

Bullet Tooth TonyBush:

Now, dicks have drive and clarity of vision, but they are not clever. They smell pussy and they want a piece of the action. And you thought you smelled some good old pussy, and have brought your two small mincey faggot balls along for a good old time. But you've got your parties mangled up. There's no pussy here, just a dose that'll make you wish you were born a woman. Like a prick, you are having second thoughts. You are shrinking, and your two little balls are shrinking with ya. The fact that you've got "Replica" written down the side of your gun. (withdraws his gun) And the fact that I've got "Desert Eagle point five O" written on the side of mine, should precipitate your balls into shrinking, along with your presence. Now...

Dismantle your nukulur programFuck off.

#19 MadMoud's on-going rants have already over-justified either Irael, the USA, and even the UNO-UNSC taking unilateral or joint mil action against him and the Mullahs. He and the Mullahs are going hell-bent for nukes, and at minima Iran-centric/controlled regional ME empire within our present lifetimes. Every person and Muslim in the ME is s future Iranian citizen or peon in the making. Aymmetric warfare allows a weak society to fight a militarily or technologically superior or dominant society in non-suicidal combat while preserving as much fighting manpower as possible for suture use by said weaker society - this means that, as wid the Russo-Chicom "War/Battle Zone" strategem, POLITICAL-DIPLOMATIC VICTORY is PRIORITIZED OVER MILITARY-ARMED VIOLENCE. BY definiontion this ergo means that MadMoud's, etal. ULTIMATE ACE IN THE DECK are those anti-American Americans already existing or soon to exist within the American NPE-MIC's. WHY WAGE WAR WHEN YOUR ENEMY WILL GIVE YOU WHAT YOU WANT ANYWAYS!?
