#2 Point 1: He urged Muslim states to "isolate" the United States and Britain, accusing them of supporting Israel's military offensive and saying they should be expelled from the U.N. Security Council.:

I agree:
1) We should isolate ourselves from Muslim states too, just to be sure we're doing it properly
2) We should leave the UNSC, in fact we should leave the UN
3) The UN should pack its bags and set sail for a country more in line with its moral compass - say Zimbobwe.

and

Point 2: replace 'Israel' with 'Iranian Leadership' in this headline and really end this 'crisis'

#4 Right. Like the jew's would'nt become terrorist like the muslim's if this happened.
Besides, if they ever succeed in this, the rest of the countries of the Caliphite are next.
20 years from now, he might say " just wipe France off the earth, and it will solve the problem".

#5 "Although the main solution is for the elimination of the Zionist regime, at this stage an immediate cease-fire must be implemented," he said.

Your boys getting their asses kicked again? Too bad those damn Zionists just won't roll over and die like you want them to, huh, you malignant little dwarf.

#6 Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Thursday the solution to the Middle East crisis is to destroy Israel...

Then step up to the plate, you P***Y. Send trroops. Send warplanes. Lead the charge like Saladin. It's really easy to hide behind rhetoric, proxies, women and children like most Lions of Islam^TM.

"Although the main solution is for the elimination of the Zionist regime, at this stage an immediate cease-fire must be implemented," he said.

Let me translate yourfarsi: We are getting the living s*** out of us again by Israel. Please stop kicking the living s*** out us before all of the 100s of millions of dollars Iran we have invested in our proxy Hezbollah is totally wasted.

#7 "Although the main solution is for the elimination of the Zionist regime, at this stage an immediate cease-fire must be implemented," he said."
If there ever was a reason for no-ceasefire, this statement gives it to us. the fact that he used the word "must" is interesting.

#8 Deep breathing anymouse, deeeeep breathing mate.

Ahmadinejad is definitely going to be a lot warmer by the end of the year. Firstly (and briefly) here on earth, and then a lot hotter and for a loooong time somewhere else...

#12 He urged Muslim states to "isolate" the United States and Britain

Listen carefully to the master. The only way that Ahmadinejad and the mullahs can possibly keep hold on the reins of power is to impose the worst sort of isolation upon their own people.

The United States and Britain are far to integrated into the world's economy for some p!ssant he||hole like Iran to enforce a global embargo upon them (we won't even mention military might). To give you some perspective regarding this, consider that, barring petroleum exports, America imports twice as much dollar value in manufactured goods from HONG KONG as it does from the entire Arab Middle East.

It is this entire lack of modernization that continues to keep the Islamic countries locked into a stone age milieu. Guess who is responsible for it? Islamic leaders. You all know the reason why. It is far easier to control a technologically illiterate population.

We need to build super-cheap satellite wireless notepad computers and air-drop them into Iran to begin a relentless campaign of enlightenment with respect to the abuses of their current regime. This is the only alternative to simply decapping the Iranian leadership structure.

Whichever route we choose, it must be selected soon. A nuclear armed Iran would represent the most significant strategic blunder of this new century. Iran's fomenting of the Israeli regional conflict is all the evidence needed of its intentions once they gain the stage as a nuclear power.

#13 Dropping toilet paper before super-cheap satellite wireless notepad computers might be a prior step Zenster.

#14 Actually, I was more in favor of just offing their leadership, WU7693.

#15 Many of the problems in the mideast would go away if this path were followed Zenster. Should have done something when our people were held hostage by the mad mullahs back in 1979.

#17 Whaling Unomoger7693 - only drop toliet paper with the Koran printed on it. Why? It gives them an interesting moral choice.
