Deja Vu... All Over Again

Interesting things have been developing in that oh so stable Islam(ofacist)ic republic of Iran. Their President, Mahmoud Ahdmadinejad, is just such a wonderfully pleasant little peach. I mean, who wouldn’t love a guy that denies the Holocaust despite mountains of Empirical Evidence? Why could we not adore a man that says that Israel should be wiped off the map? This sounds like a guy that really can be trusted to keep his word to only use the Iranian Nuclear Program for energy and not, say, building radioactive WMDs.

What really strikes me as a tad on the Déjà vu side is the German reaction to Iran continuing its nuclear program, despite the UN moratorium. Not that the UN has been an effective body for decades now, but we have to have the appearance of actually doing something. Hmm, Germany, through their voice in the IAEA has been dragging their feet in terms of taking the Iran situation in front of the UN Security Council. My guess is that we have history repeating itself. I mean, they failed at wiping out the Jews in the 40’s, why not let Iran have a try. Not that I’m really buying the conspiracy, but it makes you wonder.

The past decade or two, we have seen a steep increase in Anti-Semitism and Anti-Zionism in the Liberal and European Community. But why am I repeating myself? Statements like Ahdmadinejad’s, which would have been met with horror and revulsion mere decades ago, are now accepted and just a natural expression of “Islamic” anger over Big Bag Israel occupying “Palestinian” land. Even though a Palestinian is a wholly fictional creation of the Islamic world to play 3-card Monty with public perception, people still feel sorry for these castoffs that the compassionate, religion of peace Arab world can’t give two shits about.. It would seem that Germany is going along with this mad man, trying to make up for its “failure” in the 40’s. They are our ally why again? We helped them rebuild and democratize again only to have them stab us in the back or what reason now?

I fully support Israel’s right to exist. I fully believe these Turks, Egyptians, and various other Arab detritus that call themselves “Palestinians” should shut the hell up and go to their REAL homes. I also think that the UN damned well better do something about Iran, and pretty fucking quickly. And if they don’t, the US or Israel is fully in the right taking the nuclear research sites down. If Ahdmadinejad doesn’t back down, then that loony nut juggler can expect a new Osirak at the very least. Or, if I had it my way, we’d have a beautiful lake of pebbled glass just slightly north and to the East of Iraq.
