Opaque Lucidity

Send In The Clown

Let's get something straight: President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran is a leader only in the most liberal sense of the word. The real rulers of Iran are the Ayatollahs who oversee all aspects of government, either directly or through intimidation. Nonetheless, the President is the face of Iran when he travels. And what a face it is.

Ahmatothrowabomb gave a speech at the UN todaymere hours after President Bush did the same thing. Bush talked directly to the people of Iran, telling them that they are a great, proud society deserving of freedom and democracy. To most Americans, this seems like common sense; after all, all human beings should be free and have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But to President Ahmajihadistan, Bush's words must have cut deep.

President Ahmamamalobadingdong went to the UN with the intention of making the US and the UK look bad in the eyes of the world. I'm sure he succeeded in that since the UN is a cesspool of socialists, marxists and ruthless thugs. As always, the opinion of most of the world matters little when their actions show them to by hypocrites and appeasers.

I am worried about what will happen with regard to Iran. My hope is that there will be a peaceful revolution from within, but I know I'm wishing for the near-impossible. I do not believe the US, UK or anyone else wants to invade Iran after the troubles we've had in Iraq; maybe I'm wrong, but it would be a crazy move. To quote President Lincoln, "One war at a time."
