Iran says it's out of Israel's reach

ranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Friday that Israel could not harm Iran, even as it expanded its offensive into Lebanon to target the Iranian-backed Hizbullah, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

"Despite the barbaric and criminal nature of the occupiers of Jerusalem, the regime and its Western supporters do not even have the power to give Iran a nasty look," the agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying in Osku, in northwestern Iran.

His declaration came just hours after he warned Israel against extending its Lebanon assault into neighboring Syria, saying such a move would be seen as an attack against the whole Islamic world. Ahmadinejad made those comments in a telephone conversation with Syrian President Bashar Assad, to assure him of his support, IRNA reported.

Syria and Shi'ite Muslim Iran are allies, and together are the top backers of the Shi'ite Hizbullah guerrilla group in Lebanon.

Israel has intensified its attacks on Lebanon, striking bridges, airports and the main highway leading to Syria to put pressure on the government and force Hizbullah to free the two Israeli soldiers it kidnapped in a cross-border attack on Wednesday.

How far out of reach do they possibly think they could be considering Israel destroyed one of their nuclear reactors years ago?

This whacked-out Iranian sounds just like Saddam did, just before he was bombed into a spider hole.

This is the kind of statements that esccalate when a nutbag realizes he can say and do anything and everyone will quake in their boots in fear of actually DOING anything about it.

I see this as a "nana nana boo boo, you can't get meeee".

Could someone please ring up the Israeli navy to give Tehran a nasty look? Perhaps seven of them? In a nice cluster?

A shadow forms beneath the surface of the sea, a missle emerges from the water, and the shadow sinks and disappears. How close ya want it to be?

He's completely insane.

This quote is proof positive that Iran's "Intelligence" Service doesn't know it a$$ from a hole in the ground.

I wonder if we actually had to take a flyby over to Iran's nuke sites if the "bubbling masses" we have heard about for twenty years would actually rise up against the Mullahs?
