I can't believe there is even a debate as to whether Iran should be attacked after it's president's remarks over Israel. Anybody with half a mind knows his remarks were just that:remarks. Iran is not going to attack Israel. That would be daft to put it mildly-just as it would be daft for North Korea to attack Japan.
Iraq was attacked 'pre-emptively'.If the same happens to Iran, Bush and co. will just prove themselves to be the crazed fanatics that they are. These people have acted, whereas Ahmadinejad merely uttered words. Words which had they been uttered with regard to any other country than Israel, would hardly had been noticed. After all, the Islamic Republic of Iran has always(as farback as I can remember)called the US 'big Satan', and Europe 'little Satan'. Where's the difference? When are people going to get it in to their heads that Israel does not represent Jews? Israel is a state like any other, albeit a state defined by a religion, similarly to most middle-eastern states.
It was an exceedingly dopey thing for him to say. That kind of mentality reminds me of our dear Tokyo governor Blinky (the dumbfuck). Such remarks play well with the nationalist, right-wing jackasses in one's own country, but cause more problems than the endorphins from beating one's chest are worth.
RépondreSupprimerBut like, you say Jez, if they want to wipe out a nation with 200+ nuclear warheads, chemical and biological weapons, then good luck. Somehing tells me they won't make it.
