Ahmadinejad's Deputy: Iran Is A Friend Of The U.S. And Israel
haaretz.com ^ | July 20, 2008

Posted on 07/19/2008 5:36:04 PM PDT by Free ThinkerNY

The deputy to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Saturday that Iran was a friend of Israel, Iranian news agencies reported.

"Iran wants no war with any country, and today Iran is friend of the United States and even Israel.... Our achievements belong to the whole world and should be used for expanding love and peace," said Iranian Vice President Esfandiar Rahim-Mashaei, who is also head of the Cultural Heritage Organization.

The Cultural Heritage Organization news agency quoted him as saying that even during the eight-year war against Iraq, Iran just defended itself against the military invasion by former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

I finished reading The Rise and Fall Of The Third Reich a few months ago. Every time I read of an instance where Imanutjob takes a defiant tone against a country or countries and then softens his stance a short time later reminds me of a similar tactic used by Hitler to keep his enemies off guard. He is trying to repeat history. The question will the west fall for it again?

No wonder these mental cases want our anti-American candidate to be elected. “We are your friends, as long as you do what we want you to do...down on your knees Hussein..”

Yes, Hitler was our friend too.....

Precisely. The attitude of Iran is clear, set in concrete, and opposed to the continued existence of Israel first, and ultimately the United States. On the football field, this is what's called "a head fake."

Iran is a country in total disarray with absolutley no one in control. Like NAZI Germany it consists of many power grabbing factions. However, unlike NAZI Germany their is no single man who can exert decisive power. It would be very easy for Iran to turn into a democracy with it’s current constitution. All they would need to do is ammend it to remove the Mullahs’ veto power. Most of the country is ready to do this. And the Mullahs’ who are very unpopular because of their incompetence and corruption. May just let it happen to literaly save their heads.

Delusion. A few thousand oppressed students are not going to ride in an save dozens of rich nuclear powers. It is absurd and obscene that men are reduced to hoping for it. In reality, Iran runs a vicious secret police that murders with impunity anyone it pleases. The ayatollahs and the president as their front man speak for a committed fanatical paramilitary cadre, that is about as likely to turn over the country to democrats as the Waffen SS.

If we do nothing, Iran will get nukes and it will use them. Everything else is an evasion of our responsibilities.

I see, so when Imanutjob said a few months ago that Israel “must be wiped off the map” and that it will “burn in the fire of the Islamic nation’s fury” he was just being friendly.

As an example, not one of the Code Pink group in the USA would still be alive today for what they do with protected impunity here.

This is probably inaccurate. Amanutjob would probably welcome that bunch and incorporate them into his cabinet.

Muslims were buddies with the NAZIS in WWII and fought in German uniforms against the US and England

They used NAZIS as a template for their politics and dictatorships -
It’s easy to see that Iran is just as nutty as Iraq was under Barack Hussein (whoops!)
