Ahmadinejad’s win has lesson for Franken
With the controversial, election-fraud-ridden victory over the weekend of Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who won a second four-year term as president with an alleged 63 percent of the boat, it’s clear that Mr. Ahmadinejad has at least one lesson to share with Minnesota’s Al Franken: if you’re going to steal an election result – go big!
Franken’s ACORN-assisted election result is controversial because the election fraud perpetrated in his name was too modest, giving him a win of only a couple hundred votes. If Franken truly wanted to be Minnesota’s next undisputed U.S. senator, he would have fielded an Ahmadinejad-like win that put to rest all doubts that the fix was in.
Meanwhile, digital camcorders may be recording election fraud in Iran and Minnesota, but guess where the footage has the best chance of getting the camera man killed? Look to the west, young man…
Anti-semitic Carter to speak to Dems
No matter what position Barack Obama takes on Israel, actions speak louder than words and that’s why the party’s plans to have former President and current antisemitic hate-monger Jimmy Carter address the Democratic National Convention next Monday is so disappointing.
WonderfulPessimist.com is in agreement with the Republican Jewish Coalition on calling for the Democratic party to remove Carter from the Denver convention program. Here is part of the RJC press release:
“Jimmy Carter’s long history of anti-Israel bias has rendered him unfit to address the Democratic Convention. It is incumbent upon the Democratic Party leadership and Senator Obama to remove Carter from the program in Denver. The Democratic Party and Senator Obama’s continued embrace of Carter and his anti-Israel bias sends a troubling message to the Jewish community. It stands in stark contrast to the GOP and John McCain’s pro-Israel stance,” said RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks. “Additionally, Senator Obama should reject Carter’s superdelegate vote. The hand that shook Khaled Meshal’s should not be allowed to rise in support of Senator Obama’s candidacy for president.”
We can even suggest some good moving services if Carter has already unpacked at his Denver hotel room. Next thing you know, the MoveOn.com Democratic Party will be inviting Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to give a keynote address and put Obama’s name into nomination. Yeesh.
Iran president promises Israel’s destruction … again.
Today, as I was gathering my clothes, my toiletries and my fishing tackle for a week-long getaway, I browsed through the news and saw this. Within a week or two of Iran enjoying its first official diplomatic contact with the United States since prior to the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979-1980, the leaders of Iran have not softened their terrorist rhetoric, but actually ramped it up.
Just today, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said in a public speech that the countdown to the destruction of Israel has begun. Demonstrating why it’s not possible or wise to “negotiate peace” with a terrorist state, Iranian news agency Mehr quoted Ahmadinejad as saying, “The arrogant superpowers and the Zionist regime invested all their efforts during the 33-day war, but after 60 years, their pride has been trampled and the countdown to the destruction of this regime has been started by Hizbullah fighters.”
Ahmadinejad added, “With the help of all the Lebanese and Palestinian fighters, we will witness the destruction of this regime in the near future… Anyone who works for God and believes in the power of the people will prevail.”
Is that clear enough for you, liberals?
Is Iran crisis all about OPEC?
The British hostages. The tension between the US and Iran. Rumors of missle exchanges. The constant threats to wipe Israel off the map, and the US with her.
We’ve heard it almost endlessly, but no one’s been looking at a startling possibility: Could all of Ahmadinejad’s saber-rattling toward the West be more about OPEC than about Iran’s national sovereignty?
Follow the money. After enjoying hefty price-per-barrel profits last summer, the OPEC nations have been taking a bit of a bath once prices began to fall last fall. In the last month, though, prices have shot back up in the wake of tensions in the Middle East, most of them caused by Iran’s Ahmadinejad.
Money is about power, and it seems to Wonderful Pessimist that the latest saber-rattling is less about real tensions and more about power supply repair; in other words, Iran wants its power back, and rising gas prices accomplish that, so if you can create some tensions about Middle East peace and cause those prices to go back up, you get your power back.
It makes more sense than one might think, once you take a moment to ponder it.
Meet the Hitler of the 21st century: Iran’s Ahmadinejad
As unlikely as it might seem, there’s actually someone who wants to be the Adolph Hitler of the 21st century. Even more strange, there’s already a winner: Iranin president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The truth of that label was made clear by his most recent public statement.
“The Zionists are the true manifestation of Satan,” Ahmadinejad said, speaking to a meeting of Sudanese Islamic scholars in the capital Khartoum. “Many Western governments that claim to be pioneers of democracy and standard bearers of human rights close their eyes over crimes committed by the Zionists and by remaining silent support the Zionists due to their hedonistic and materialistic tendencies.”
Add this in with the fact that he’s been promising that Israel would be destroyed and wiped off the map soon, as well as his Holocaust deniers conference last December, and it doesn’t take a top-notch dual-core processor and loads of computer memory to figure out the obvious: while he may not have death camps set up quite yet, Iranian President Ahmadinejad is the next Adolph Hitler.
What a sad, sad reality. The world has learned nothing from the lessons of World War II, apparently.
