Ahmadinejad….Libs showing spine…it must have really confused the little dictator.

Ahmadinejad is really going to hate us now. Not only because of all the womens rights and fags, now he things the Libs are going to be tough on him. What next? Poor guy.

The systematic demonization of Iran continues apace. As the hysterical Ahmadinejad haters take to the airwaves and the streets, let’s pause to examine where most of the fear mongering is originating:

The Administration. Their chief aim is to take advantage of Iran as a scapegoat for its failure in Iraq. I’m less convinced that they want to go to war in the short term, but my crystal ball sees a few well-timed air strikes shortly before the first Tuesday in November of next year, depending on the poll and focus group results. Such military action will appear well justified by then, after CIA loyalists and admin cronies have been trotted out Colin Powell-style to “testify” as to the Iran’s nuclear weapons development, and the use of Iranian bombs in Iraq.

Working foot-in-jackboot with the administration are those who view Iran as a threat to Israeli hegemony in the region. These are not only Israelis themselves and their sympathizers abroad, but the American media circus, who dutifully disseminate the brazen myth that Israel is the only true democracy and only country worthy of friendship in all of the middle-east.

I’m afraid that nothing Ahmadinejad does or says, much less the apparent minority of people who see through the charade, is going to stop this Lemming march into a cold and bloody future. Despite the lessons we should have learned from the Iraq war buildup, it remains too hard to change minds, and too easy to lay blame elsewhere.

Even worse, whilst we are all distracted by Sideshow Ahmad – America’s new officially sanctioned bogeyman, Putin is busily turning Russia into the biggest Mafiacracy in history. And Pakistan is just one false move from putting nukes, (and a working delivery system!) into the hands of the Taliban.

A little perspective please.

I think Ahmadinejad is the essence of a deranged evil scumball. But that does not make it OK for Columbia’s President and students to abuse and act like animals when it was Columbia in fact that asked for him to come and speak.

We are Americans. We believe in freedom of speech and justice. We do not believe in acting like uncivilized vermin. Columbia’s president and the pigs in the audience represent the very worst of America and I’m embarrassed by the way we treated Ahmadinejad today.

Has everyone been brainwashed to want to go to war with Iran? The liberals and their neocon allies are manuevering us right into what could easily become the next world war. Wake up people!!! You are being duped.
