When / Where ?. I was attempting to point out that the quote you made is not actually true. Nothing more - to be honest. Where / When have they said this. I'd be interested to read about that.
if the iranians were so against america and its allies why do they sell their oil to them? no one forces the americans to buy oil from the axis of evil or for that matter from people like chavez, if you don't like these people don't buy their oil (i suppose you can invade their country and take it though) if iranian religious conviction was so strong wouldn't they have stopped all oil exports to countries in cahoots with america as well? if america was so against iran why didn't they have a problem shipping weapons to them ( care of oliver north? ) its obvious that any war against iran will be one based on monetary expediency rather than religious observances. you'll find that when it comes down to it both sides don't give a fuck about jehova or allah they just want the money.
..................................................................................................... Iran must sell oil, the proceeds of sales go to buy internal support for the regime, to pay the cronies and buy off the opposition. Religous convictions take a back seat to self preservation. We cannot boycott Iranian Oil. If we refuse to buy it, and instead buy all of our oil from say Venezuela, then those customers who previously bought from Venezula and now find that thier monthly allotments now being sold to The US will then buy oil on the open market. Iran now having spare inventory will then find that same customer. We don't need any war with Iran. The Iranian People are our friends. They are not fooled by the mullahhs and revolutionary guards. They have the same aspirations as us. time remains on our side.
The American media has been ignoring statements that Iran and their allies have been making against the west. Perhaps they don't want to alarm the public. Yet, in the Yaakov Lappin YNet News they have reported that Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadiejad said Israel and the United States will soon be destroyed. An excerpt: "Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad... assured that the United States and the Zionist regime of Israel will soon come to the end of their lives, "the Iranian president was quoted as saying. He made these statements at the World without Zionism conference. He then stated again that it is possible for us to witness a world without America, and Zionism. The president of Iran stated that Zionist regime demise is imminent. This was also reported in Iran's official FARS news agency also reported the comments. Iran and their allies donot have an army that could destroy America or Israel. Yet, their work on Nuclear energy could radically change the playing field. And this is why Iran cannot be allow to have Nukes. Iran and their allies are not looking to develop nuclear energy for peace, far from it. And if you listen to what they are saying, they are telling you how they plan to destroy America and Israel.
heres a sickingly vile piece of footage i came across whilst searching for something else on the net. heres all the fun you can have in iraq www.chris-floyd.com/fallujah/contract/
You can't watch much news. http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=World+without+Zionism+conference+wiped+off+the+map&meta= This is the same statements i was drawing your attention to earlier. It was and is huge news in America and all over the world. I don't believe you have not read or seen it on the TV. I agree. That is the $64,000 question are they or are they not. I'm glad in a way i asked you for some more information. It is just a shame it is nothing that i have not heard before.
I guess my only question would be, how many times would you have to hear a man tell you he wants to murder you, and while he is telling you this, he is loading his gun? There are no easy answers here. I believe before Bush leaves office we might see an American military strike against Iran, which might slow down their Nuke program, yet, it will not stop them from getting the bomb.
Well i would have to actually hear him say these things and not the freakish nature of our press - making him say something he may not be saying. I do not think a military strike will occur. Certainly not because of this issue. If it does occur it imho will not resemble the kind of biblical references you infer.
The thing is, he isn't explicitly calling for the destruction of America or Israel. But he's obviously playing word games. Sure, he can say the "zionist regime" doesn't mean the country, but Iranian government officials avoid saying the word "Israel" since that is seen an acknowledging the existance of the country and somehow legtitimising it. But America isn'ta regime, its a country. How can we see a world without America? And isn't he giving one speech for internal consumption and one for international media? Everybody does that, if they think nobody is listening. The point is, for Israel, if a country denies your right to exist, denies the holocaust, threatens to wipe you off the map (regime or not), sponsors terrorism against you, and attempts to build a nuclear bomb, should you really give them the benefit of the doubt?
So you said you would actually have to hear the president of Iran say these things. So are you telling me you want the President of Iran to go over to your house personally and tell you this? Because I have to tell you, everyone else is aware of his statements. The U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan has expressed "dismay" over the Iranian president's comments urging the destruction of Israel. The European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso said thursday he condemned the Iranian statement "absolutely." Foreign ministries in Berlin, Madrid and Rome also made their opposition to Ahmadinejad's remarks. Spain summoned the Irainan ambassador in Madrid to protest the comments made by Irans president. Italy said the remarks confirmed concerns over Tehran's nuclear program. Iran will not invade Israel today or tomorrow, yet the day is coming when this will occure. And it will not be Iran alone. When the Islamics finally get tired of killing themselves, they will turn their hate against Israel. I believe this will happen 20 years or so down the road. This event I believe will take place around God's third day.
maybe you could help gods plan and help israel and get yourself over to iraq to drive a truck or something, i've heard they need drivers.
Maybe you could blow up a vegetable market in Baghdad, I hear that's what people who really care about Iraq's future are doing.
well perhaps if you feel so strongly about it why don't you join up and help these people. no i didn't think so which is the whole point of this thread, to expose the wide gulf between political ideology and someones true beliefs. ie not prepared to join up
If it was the general consensus among the troops that everyone who supports the war has to join up, I'd join up. If you think so, I don't give a shit.
Cross my heart and hope to die - i attempted to email him the other day. It would not work for me. If i did get in touch and he said point blank what is being infered and spoke with the biblical reverance you do - then i'd believe it - yes.
why wait for the approval of anyone if you don't give a shit? you need to think why you aren't doing it.... george bush is waging war on the middle east whilst millions of tonnes of imports pour into america destroying its society and ability to produce anything other than weapons and silicon chip. instead of using its brains and weaning itself off the addiction of oil and finding some other energy source, america has embarked on some orgy of violence to get what it needs in the same manner as your garden variety junkie holding up a variety store. whilst the climate is going to crap the "leaders" of america send their young men into battle in the name of something that no one can define. is this why people who profess the righteous of the war won't go? is it because instinctively they know it is a lie, let someone else die for it but not me? the time is now to ask the hard questions
It's a giant crime family that has taken over america--much more powerful than any mafia or russian mob.They have the power from the cop in the street to the fuckin' H-bomb.They don't care about anything or anybody.It's about the MONEY.The same old faces come and go and come back again.Either in the govt or as lobbyists.Capitalism gone mad.A disease when practised like it is at the top levels.-----You got oil?We're gonna' get it,fucker-got bananas?We'll take 'em.Tungston?--we need it.Just a tragic mistake that some--well--a lot of you --uh--got killed.Morals are not the question here--God is with US and the sooner you-all learn it,the better off we'll all be.And don't forget that shit or we MAY HAVE TO REMIND YOU!
