Great that you idolize (were you speaking about yourself here, unclear) a man who calls us Great Satan.
If they decide to wipe our allies off the map, send weapons and support into Iraq, intend to use nukes and say so (how else would they wipe Israel off the map?), then sure. Light 'em up.

No one ever said anything about wiping Israel off the map. That was blatant misquote and misinterpretation of what Ahmadinejad said. This has been pointed out and discredited numerous times, yet the American propaganda machine has not let up with perpetuating the lie.
Ahmadinejad knows that if he even looks at Israel the wrong way, that his country will cease to exist.
The drum beats for war with Iran are deafening, but the pounding isn’t as loud as the idiotic cheering section that would love to see it happen. Namely Headhunter and his gang of hypocrites.

I said it many times: I don’t like fundamentalists, be they Muslims or Xenu-ists, politicized or not. I don’t see anything remotely appealing about Ahmadinejad or his ilk, but I don’t think referring to him as Hitler is totally uncalled for. I believe this is some scheme to get the public to tag along when the army bombs Iran, and I refuse to let the Iraq debacle happen all over again.
Wake up! The real world isn’t digital. One can defend a person and still keep healthy skepticism. The “if you’re not with us” line is a total idiocy.

Dr. Amauris Samartino, a Cuban who holds permanent residence status in Bolivia, will be expelled under a 1996 law forbidding immigrants to ‘‘intervene in any form in internal politics or incite by any means the alteration of the social and political order,’’ according to a government statement on Sunday.
Samartino was arrested Saturday in the eastern city of Santa Cruz, a center of anti-Morales opposition, and later transferred to the Bolivian capital of La Paz. He will be flown home to Cuba once his case has been processed, the statement said."[/i]

Lastly, what is everyone’s obsession with Israel?

Dustin,
Would you explain to us exactly what the Iranian president DID mean, in his words?

You could try reading the article I provided. I could also google other articles on his alleged statement and provide them since you’re lazy. Better yet, you could try it yourself.
The direct translation is given in the article. Now, maybe for some people it requires a few moments to think about what he said.
The statement, if you would ever venture outside the MSM, is a (accurate) response to the belligerent behavior of the Israelis who seem to think they can do as please whenever they want.
Unfortunately, the actual statement made is a far cry from what you probably wish he’d said, since you want to drop bombs on people so badly.

In 10 years, if I am wrong about this. I’ll owe you an apology. But right now I can’t see Ahmadinejad as this great man of peace.
If he came up with a grand strategy to end the war in Iraq, or at least stop the violence, or a peaceful solution to the Israeli crisis, or jumped on board with the war against al-qaeda, then maybe I’d believe you. But I have not seen this man do anything peaceful but talk. And most of his rhetoric is antagonistic.

I have read different versions of what he said on the Wiki provided by Lixy and felt it was inconclusive as to what he exactly said. If you believe he did not say it, then there are quotes to back up that belief. If you think he did say it, there are quotes to back that up as well. Lixy sent the link a while ago as proof, and I am still up in the air about it.
Best advise to Ahmadinejad:
Maybe you should have just said nothing.
Question: Do the people in Iran love this guy? I have heard they do not and are waiting for him to get booted out of office.

I wanted YOUR words, Dustin. I wasn’t being lazy. I wanted to hear what YOU thought. Please share with us.
I want to understand why you have the views you do. Too many lib profs?
I know, one day you’re on the football team, cold beer and hot pussy; the next, you’re in a cubicle with some prick standing over you screaming “Get that report done now, Dustin!!”, doing work no one in their right mind would give a shit about.
Now, imagine you are in your Abrahms tank, cruising down the streets of Tehran. You’re crushing Iranian cars under the treads. A truck full of ragheads try to escape in a pickup truck after IEDing your bros. You fuckin’ cap 'em all! Isn’t that better than that fucking cubicle?
Join now, live the life! And you get the pleasure of defending the most noble, most moral country in the history of the world! HOO-YAH!!!

There are numerous reasons why I have the views I do, it’s a little off topic though.
I believe the “ragheads” prefer to be called Persians.
Unfortunately, the little scenario you just outlined will happen early next year, except not in Iran and not in a tank.
Hopefully, I don’t have to cap anyone.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) – Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad invited President Bush to speak at an Iranian university if the American leader ever traveled to the Islamic Republic, state-run television reported Friday.[/i]
