Iran v. The World


Iran won't budge


Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad blasted out on Wednesday that the United States efforts to calm the Middle East Crisis are futile, and that Israel will collapse in the near future. His main issue is with the Zionist perspective that they are entitled to Israel, when Ahmadinejad believes that the only reason they are in the position they are because of lies, corruption and violence. Nice. I hope no one takes this man seriously. A man who chooses his words wisely, yet does not understand how ridiculously hypocritical he sounds. First off, when it comes to violence, he is among the leaders in the world, when it comes to lies, there aren't many better at it, and when it comes to corruption, well his government is not the most respected and fair in the world. Secondly, who is this man to tell the world that peace will never come, that attempts to solve issues are in vain, and that lives need to be lost in order for a solution to arise. Even countries that typically side with Iran aren't please with the President's crude comments in favor of Israel being "wiped off" the map. It is sad that people like this exist in this world, and even more appalling that such a man could have such a powerful position for such a long time. Oh well, as long as he continues with threats and does not try to be the hero of the mislead Arab people, we should all be fine.
