Stein i sthe greatest.

Rafsanjani was looking forward to the big day when his side got nukes and settled the Zionist question for ever "since a single atomic bomb has the power to completely destroy Israel, while an Israeli counter-strike can only cause partial damage to the Islamic world."

Somehow I doubt that.
I would bet that Israel has enough enhanced fallout devices (Cobalt bombs) in it's nuclear arsenal to make the entire Islamic World uninhabitable for the next 50,000 years.
If they are going to be exterminated, they will take all their enemies with them.
Wouldn't you?

Thanks, Pokey78, for beating you-know-who to the draw.

As usual, Steyn cuts to the chase and those unlucky enough to be in his sights fall first.

John Loftus on John Batchelor said, when this happened, that Britain was placing listening and other sensing devices in the channel between Iraq and Iran, that that was the real issue here. Anybody else hear anything more?

If this is an open ping list for Mark Steyn, I want on it! The guy's a genius (Steyn, not Blair).

Interesting. That could be why they're downplaying things.

There's something very sexy about this man. Are there other pictures? Sort of an Ann Coulter rule for female freepers?

For all the homers this guy hits, you'd think he might be a Colorado Rocky.


Nope, Steyn's homers are EARNED.
