I'm sure this will help improve things.

Ahmadinejad, you were right in the cross hairs. Why the command to pull the trigger wasn't given, I'll never know.

When will people stop listening to these Israelis (when we will have a truly free press, perhaps?). By far the most violent group in the region is the Israeli regime (and the American one).

What, may I ask, are you on about? We can see both Ahmadinejad's and the Israeli's points of view in this article.

Remember the Cedar Revolution that the Bush regime promoted in Lebanon? It's gone, girls.

So, the Obama regime 'lost' Lebanon?

Yeah, and you don't see any spin, right? This is a typical biased report from AP.
Anyway, Israel is in no position to criticize others of being violent. It was Israel that wrecked Lebanon and murdered over 1000 civilians a few years ago. It is Israel that continues to violate Lebanese airspace on an almost daily basis.
All Ahmadinejad is saying is that Israeli terror is coming to an end. Bravo!

thetruthhurts
Sure I do. The Israeli politicians, especially one of them, sound like right nuts. However, the presence of what you consider or don't consider spin is completely different from what you seem to be calling for, that is a 'free press'.
And Hezbollah's terror will continue right along. Bravo!

No, it was a house of cards from the beginning, just like Ukraine's Orange Revolution.

Iran has to make their move while the US has an appeasement bunny in the White House.

Iran Uber Alles! History repeats itself.
Doesn't Ahmadinejad realize Israel could turn his entire country into glass in about a half an hour?
In response to thousands of rockets being fire from southern Lebanon by Hezbollah terrorists. Hezbollah is an internationally recognized Islamic terrorist group and a proxy of Iran. If attacked again, hopefully Israel won't be so indecisive as it was against Hezbollah a few years ago.

Not to be insensitive, but uh, in Iran they speak Farsi/Parsi, not German. FYI. And, if you really meant to slide in to German, that would "Über".

Despite what your sources might be saying, that carnage did not start with the Hezbollah rockets. In the eyes of the controlled media and western puppet leaders, Hezbollah is called a terrorist organization. In the eyes of the world, Israel is a terrorist organization.

I'm curious. How exactly does one manage to become chosen to be the representative of the 'eyes of the world'? A friend wants to know.

Not to be uber pedantic or anything but 'Iran' basically means 'Land of the Aryans.'

TimRussert
It's quite funny to see Leftists - 'atheists' in particular - rush to show their unqualified support for a medieval bunch of armed theocrats calling themselves Hezbollah - literally, "the Party of God."

Regardless, he's addressing them in German. They do not speak German.
Yeah, we know we can trace the ethnicity of many tribes/clans in middle Asian countries to ethnicities classified as caucasian, aryan, etc.
Persians, do not speak German. Why one would pretend they did is confounding.
Additionally, as you say yourself, Aryan =/= German (or therefore) speaker of German.
Moderator: Stay on topic please.

Ahmadinejad will go to throw his rock at Israel, Hezbollah will shoot him in the shoulder, blame it on Israel, and then start launching missiles.

thetruthhurts
Wow, you really get around. However, I am not sure talking to people is enough of a qualification to be representative of the 'eyes of the whole world'.
People may see things differently, however that does not mean a lack of sight that one has been hypnotized.
Anyway eyes are open just fine. Thank you.

Like a game of chess.
Achmydinnerjacket does not want Israel to attack his budding nuclear facilities, so, to institute reverse pressure, The Great and Wise Benefactor flies to the Hezbollah border with Israel in order to view the launching point for his new gift, achtung, viz: long-range missiles capable of more accurately hitting Dimona, Israel's nuclear power & weapons centre/center.

See Times of India, 3rd Sept 2010 article where Iran threatens to attack Dimona in retaliation.

Some of the comments hear are also Neanderthal like, trying to make our USA president Obama look bad for what? Not starting an ALL OUT WAR with Iran? When idiots like Bush Sr. and then Bush Jr. got us into this whole bloody mess in Iraq and Afghanistan and now neo con republicans want Obama to go and start a 3rd front? You have to be an idiot to be a republican and a bit of a racist, this Iranian president is ALL TALK NOT ACTION to the USA nor to any other major power, this Ahmadinejad guy is a real threat to all the poor Iranians who have ever dared stand up to his dictatorship, and they, the Iranian dictators, their holy men etc..are just using religion to strong arm the regular Mustafa on the streets of Teheran, but Japan, many EU countries etc..keep on buying CHEAP IRANINA OIL, so we will see these guys in power until their wells run dry or until more countries do something smart, like BRAZIL that have cars that run quite well on SUGAR CANE ALCOHOL!

"Ahmadinejad, welcomed by crowds of cheering Shiites"
What a bunch of dummies.
I'll be impressed when I'minajihad is welcomed by crowds of cheering Shiites in Iraq.

"He has been."
When?

Ahmadinejad visited Iraq and was well received in April 2008. 2010 and it is Lebanon's turn.

thetruthdefinitelyhurts - You're right! Incredible, isn't it!
"U.S and Israeli power will soon be ecliped in the Middle East"
Not in I'minajihad's lifetime.

It's just hard to believe that people like him still actually exist in this day and age. It's like he's playing a part in a movie or something, or living up to some kind of self-parody of neanderthal leaders. It's like he wakes up every day and thinks, "Hmmm...what speech shall I make about Israel and the USA today?" It's like his entire purpose for office is to try to get Israel's attention.
The rest of the Middle East is trying to keep him in check, his own people don't even support his quest for nuclear arms, and the guy can't even keep smooth relations with other neanderthals like Russia. He's like a celebrity leader.....we just keep watching to see the train wreck happen before our eyes. Maybe next he'll get arrested for cocaine possession in Las Vegas?

SuperLib, I agree that it's rather amazing to find out that Ahmadinejad's type still exist, but as long as there are humans there will be meglomaniacs. Said people have a completely distorted world view and an ego sized to match. The whole visit is designed to showcase his point of view. Sort of like when Bush went on that aircraft carrier to say "mission accomplished."
The more trouble Ahmadinejad causes the happier he is.

Ahmadinejad does not sound like a lunatic to Muslims with a knowledge of history, only to narrow minded Westerners. That points to a problem with regard to education, to the media, to religious bias, and to the USA's predilection toward hegemony Netanyahu is trying to get the Palestinians to recognize Israel as a "Jewish state", thereby renouncing the right to return of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to return to the place that their ancestors' have made home for a thousand years.

Maybe. But do you really want to risk this guy, who supports and funds terrorist groups like Hezbollah, having nukes?

Ahmadinejad has one fundamental weakness. The same one that Saddam had.

Yeah, they both had a debt-free monetary system. They can't let them get away with that, can they?

Surely a debt-free monetary system has to be a strength! :D
