Look, I know people have said that Iran's Ima-dinnerjacket has in the past not really meant that he intended to nuke Israel to Mars the moment he got his hands on a bomb.
I realize that many think he just wants peaceful use of atomic energy, even though he has claimed - in public - intent to enrich to 20% U235, a level roughly sufficient for a (fancy) implosion-style nuke, but more importantly, roughly sufficient to build a fast breeder reactor which can produce Pu239 (simple and easily-extracted bomb material, since it can be chemically separated.)
But I have never seen anything quite like this attributed to him - yet.
Ahmadinejad reportedly claims he has documented evidence that the U.S. is blocking the return of Mahdi, the Imam believed by Muslims to be the savior.
"They have devised all these plans to prevent the coming of the Hidden Imam because they know that the Iranian nation is the one that will prepare the grounds for his coming and will be the supporters of his rule," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.
I hope you wake the hell up to what this nutjob is saying.
Radical Muslims believe that the "Return of Mahdi" is the Christian equivalent to the second coming of Christ.
If this is an accurate quote then we must assume that Iran has an intention to remove that which is preventing the attainment of what, for Muslims, is equivalent to the Christian Rapture!
Folks, I am willing to give almost anyone the benefit of the doubt when it comes to international affairs. After all, what we do inside our borders is our business, and we must respect that which we demand of others.
But religious fanatics are not rational. They cannot be reasoned with. Their threats have to be taken at face value - whether you want to or not.
It is my opinion that Imadinnerjacket has just threatened to nuke The United States, and he is clearly acquiring the material necessary to do so.
I pray I'm wrong but I fear I'm not.

When one examines the islamic prophecies regarding the Mahdi he lines up pretty well with the anti-Christ description wise.
A nuke strike on Washington, DC while Obummer, the Congress Critters, and Harry Reid are all in town sounds like a win win to me. How much would we have to pay? Just askin...
Islam is an insane murder cult, from Mad Mo in the bat cave, until today.
If it just took out those scum bags wouldn’t bother me but they will probably be in shelters and innocent soldiers and citizens would be the ones who died.
I read Israel was sending help to one of those countries I can’t remember the article though.
If enough nuclear weapons go off in the area they will have climate warming to worry about.
Oh

If they HAVE devised plans, it doesn't seem like they worked out too well:
"For I will blow them, should the political winds shift in an ugly direction..." /sarc>
Cheers!
Point taken. How about San Fransico and Las Vegas? There is no one innocent there and both Pelosi and Reid would lose the next election.
