Saddamizing Ahmadinejad  | | Ben Heine/ MWC NEWS |
According to WASHINGTON (AP) - “Congress signaled its disapproval of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad with a vote Tuesday to tighten sanctions against his government and a call to designate his army a terrorist group. It reflected lawmakers' long-standing nervousness about Tehran's intentions…toward Israel—a sentiment fueled by the pro-Israeli lobby whose influence reaches across party lines in Congress.”
Well I guess to paraphrase the immortal Walt Kelley, We have met the enemy and he is our Congress! Sometimes I think the Congress is so programmed by the Israel lobby (AIPAC) that they possess less judgment and moral compass-ing than one of Pavlov’s dogs. All someone has to do is ring the bell (or in this case, blow the ram’s horn) and our august body, to a man and woman, begins to salivate and bark like the junk-yard sons (and daughters) of bitches they are. So far, on this latest issue, they are behaving pretty much according to type. Now the Iranian army is a terrorist group. Great! What does that make our army - Children of the Sons of Peace and Light? I guess that will allow them to be denied the rights and privileges guaranteed under Geneva as legitimate soldiers when the big push comes to shove. Right? Smart move George. I suppose all this is based upon the supposedly infallible testimony by our government concerning the Iranian involvement in the Iraqi conflict. Any other corroborating sources for this story seem ready to vanish like the man O.J. said killed Ron and Nicole. Where is Judith Miller when we so badly need her? Somehow I have strong reasons not to believe anything the Bushies and the Pentagon have to say on the matter - even if the story may seem like a slam dunk. Why doesn’t someone ask the impertinent question as to where the majority of the foreign suicide bombers come from? Oops, I forgot. The Saudis are our friends. I cannot believe the demonizing of Ahmadinejad during his visit to NYC. George said that only in Amerika can an evil one like Ahmadinejad be allowed to speak - allowed, that is, after being properly excoriated in a terrible 60 Minutes interview with that whore Scott Pelley, subjected to rude, ignorant introductory remarks by the president of Columbia University and punished by the Congress. Our government, our press and our educational institutions have missed an unparalleled opportunity to possibly lay the groundwork for serious negotiations with Iran. Whatever you may think of Ahmadinejad, insulting the man, fronting a host of lies about his country and generally letting him know that we, as a nation, stand behind our illustrious leader in his commitment to “never negotiate with evil” - is guaranteed to make negotiations impossible - just the way Bush wants them to be. Like the man or not, painting him into such a corner bodes badly for peace and makes us look like a nation of brutes to the rest of the world. Is a nuclear holocaust then to be the only acceptable option left to the Amerikan people? I guess so. This whole circus surrounding the treatment of the president of Iran seems so predictable, manipulated and contrived it makes me sick! Bob
