Iran And Rhetoric

Let us look at a few things. The Iranian Pres was lambasted by the pres of Columbia university. Not a good move, Mahmoud looked, to the rest of the world, as a respectful leader. He took all the shots levelled at him and smiled. He took all the shots that the Bush Boyz levelled at him with a smile. You may think him a dick but the rest of the world saw it as a leader that was respectful and calm and collected. The protests backfired, Mahmoud came out looking good.

That is old news, let us move on. Do you people realize that he has NO real power, the clerics have all the power, he was approved by them but he has NO individual power in the government. He does have a mouth and a big one at that, but he makes NO policy; he just is a face for the crowds. In other words, he is the face that the US will use to portray Iran as an opponent, it is easier than trying to explain the government to the people. Americans are lapping it up!

Onward again. How about them nukes? OK, Iran says they are looking for commercial nuke power, the US says they want weapons. Who is right? Only the Iranians can answer that question. But let us look at other similar situations from the past. India, Pakistan, China, etc and so on........everything you are hearing in the media about the race for weapons has been said before. And about countries that are now our allies. The only thing new in this debate is the fact that the US is occupying Iraq and that is a sticking point.

Use the google button, since few have enough brains to do it any other way and check the nuke weapon thing from the past. You will be surprised!
