Call off the conspiracy theorists; any attempts by a government to incite a situation that would lead to war with Iran has been thwarted! (For the time being.)
Ahmadinejad played it smart and let the fifteen British sailors go home yesterday, saying:“On the occasion of the birthday of the great prophet, and for the occasion of the passing of Christ, I say the Islamic Republic government and the Iranian people — with all powers and legal right to put the soldiers on trial — forgave those 15. This pardon is a “gift” to the British people.”
He said “passing of Christ”…
So the question becomes… what will pit us in a war with Iran?
As all famous dictators have tended to be… When he pulled this “gift” off, I viewed his actions akin to that of Soviet Russia in the days of the Cold War. The British “get caught”, he takes a brief moment to capitalize on the event with the innocent “oh, we were provoked… we did nothing!” like a cool Russian would… and then kindly “return” the British sailors as if it were a notification that: “We know you were trying something, and we caught you with your pants down… so don’t do it again because we can catch you again… and when that happens, you will be responsible for the repercussions, not us!”
If he keeps up the good work, there’s probably gonna be a movie about him at Hollywood after he dies. “The Last King of Holocaust Denial”, or something.
Who do you think would be the best choice to play the part of Ahmadinejad ?
Sage, you are bright enough to know whackjob is playing a game to see how far he can push the West. He simply was diverting attention from Iran developing nukes, of course for peaceful purposes, never mind the call to annihilate Israel.
have no fear… when iran gets far enough along, Israel will nuke them off the planet regardless of the promises comrade pelosi makes to syrian terrorists…
I’ve wondered why we don’t use Israel more, or if we are and it doesn’t show. It seems to me that we’re stretched thin with Iraq, and we must have a favor or two we can call in from the IDF.
Perhaps use our Egyptian, Kuwaiti, Saudi “allies” to do the job, this would be the best solution. Using Israel would just gain her more hideous pr than she already has.
If they were smart – which they are not – they would get Israel to simply nuke that entire region for whatever bullshit excuse, and then the US would have to stay there indefinitely, with full troop commitment.
Hell, that one act might even be enough to push through the North American Union they’ve been after for so long.
No need for another false flag operation here with all the alert 9/11’ers ready and willing to dissect every inch of such an ‘attack’ immediately – that would truly be dumb.
I think if that’s what they are planning then this media lull we’re in would be appropriate – lots of work overseas I imagine, to set things up.
Israel would have to be sure the wind was blowing away from her to avoid fallout. I doubt if this will occur, too dangerous for the Israelis. However, conventional carpet bombing may be implemented. I mean so many in the Iranian streets chant: "Death to America and Israel, the Great and Little Satans, etc.
LOL, I am sure this will put a burr up more than one poster’s backside.
Many in the Americas are against this. The truck route from Mexico to Canada would be a disaster as they do not have to comply with the many North American regulations.
Sarcasm and conspiracy theories do not become you. Try another color as these are now out of season.
And why should they nuke them off the planet? It is a given that two nuclear powers, even in very unequal terms, will never nuke one another, because they each know that everything will be destroyed and contaminated for quite some time. Just doesn’t happen. In practice, a true mad man never gets into power. Iran as a nuclear power would be a stabilizing factor face to face with Israel.
From what I have heard of him, this Iranian president seems to be playing completely in zionist hands, which sort of makes me wonder if he is not a crypto zionist himself (there is a sizeable Jewish population in Iran). There was a precedent in the region when the crypto zionist Young turcs came to power at the beginning of the last century and later proceeded with the Armenian genocide: http://www.iamthewitness.com/DarylBradfordSmith_Bjerknes_28July2006.html
Hence the second post I made above your first. I know he’s playing a game… a game of political chess. He’s itching to get us to move our Queen into position so he can take it with his Bish-err… I mean Ayatollah!
It is truly amazing sometimes how few Jews are left on the planet in the world population. Their 14-some million to the 1.3 billion (and counting) Muslims on the planet. If we try to squeeze Israel for every penny it’s worth of Zionist propaganda, is it really going to matter?
This is what we are being lead to believe, yet any tenured (and honest) geopolitician will confirm this.
The zionists (kabbalists before the 20th century) have authored genocide after genocide over time, and it looks like they will keep the string going. Who would come after? Russia? America?
Moreover, the region is full of puppet governments and boogeymen.
There is only one country in the region with the (unbridled) capacity to blow its neighbors to smitherines and which has already done so in recent times.
He said “passing of Christ”…
