Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, being the ever-faithful and ardent supporter of the Religion of Peace, will dutifully offer his guests to accept Islam's Three Choices: convert, submit or die.

He will be so polite an circumspect with his invitation at first that his guests may not even realize that when they are handed Korans as gifts, by their very act of accepting them in that setting means they have indicated they accept the religion it describes.

But as the relationship continues, in time the polite invitation will turn into a very violent demand, like the one that was extended Daniel Pearl.

To engage Islamists in any way is only to invite them to die trying to convert you.

This is the same bunch of quacks that stood by for many decades while the international Communists disposed of humanity by the tens of millions.

Never a word. Not a finger lifted to save a soul.

They are damned.
