Subject: President of Iran
Admiral Kirk    12/8/2005 6:40:14 PM
I am pretty upset that the president of Iran continually is bashing Israel. In recent comments, he has stated that Irsael needs to be wiped of the face of the earth. Again, today, he states Israel needs to be moved to Europe. I fail to understand why the UN has not suspended Iran from the UN. The country has not been referred to the security council. This president also took part in the Iran hostage taking during the Carter administration. I believe Iran needs to be dealt with now. They are developing and possibly have nuclear weapons. I think this should be dealt with diplomatically. (at least first) This situation is unacceptable and out of control. What are your thoughts? Admiral Kirk

And once again the UN along with the EU provide us with nonsense diplomatic pressures against Iran. It is unbelieveable that the president of Iran gets away with this. I beleive in freedom of speech, however, this person should be charged with a crime. He should be tried and thrown in jail.

"Iranian folk music any good??" Yes. About as nice as Persian cuisine but a lot less fattening. And the classical Persian music is positively stunning, provided you're into sophisticated, vastly complex stuff. for a Westerner, it's also much easier to listen to than, say, classical Indian music. Listen here: link I really like this portable piano thing of theirs, the santur. Fortunately, serious Oriental music has become quite popular in Israel lately so that we occasionally get some on the radio late at night, and it's about time too since these musics have always been very much of a Jewish thing as well.

After carefully considering the article, I can only say..... lmao, sounds like yet another Hollywood butcher-job on a Clancy tale. Do not be fooled by all of these people who hint at secret plans, promoting more ace-in-the-hole theories, desperately trying to assure us (those of us who actually possess some real geopolitical intelligence) that the Iranian nuclear problem is well in hand. It most certainly is NOT. The people promoting such theories fall into two categories: 1) Those who represent power structures that will benefit from a nuclear Iran 2) Astute observers who see there is a real problem here but cannot accept the reality of # 1. We have seen this before with North Korea. Even AFTER they got the bomb we were told about Clinton's secret plans to bomb NK. We were assured that Bush would not allow our country to be blackmailed. If you examine the deals the Bush administration would consider ideal, they offer MORE 'rewards' than the Clinton deal even if they do demand more verification. But the here-and-now of Korea isn't the issue. They have the bomb and we have no plan but to buy them off. By the way, if anyone is ever interested, I have the perfect solution to this problem that doesn't require us to attack them. It's too late for that. But Iran is a much more serious case, imo. For one thing, it is much more financially viable than NK, and it is situated in a manner to threaten the entire global economy. Actually, this is what they are using to deter any attack on Iran, the threat to destroy all regional oil infrastructure, scuttle a few large ships in the Strait of Hormuz, all of which will precipitate a global economic meltdown and spark a Middle East War. There are many other aspects of this that I don't have time to discuss now, but if one looks at how Iran is behaving, and how the world is reacting, it becomes clear that Iran is in a strong position and while the US could take down Iran alone or with the aid of other Western Powers, the risks and stakes involved would be much higher than anything the US has dealt with since WWII. Iran has the strategic advantage.

I do not doubnt that Iran has a advantage over the US right now diplomatically. I kind of hate to see this but that is the way it is going. I do believe the president of Iran and the country of Iran should be banned from the UN for a time frame. Perhaps 1-5 years depending on their behaivor. Unfortunately, this will not happen because Russia and China support Iran in major ways-weapon sales. In my opinion, all the aid we give Russia should be cut off immediately. Why do we continue to help another country that supports a country that harbors terrorists. Any thoughts. Lets Roll

Basilisk Station    RE:President of Iran-   12/21/2005 4:19:10 PM
I was listening to NPR today and they had an interesting if perhaps even scarier explanation of why Iran's president has been behaving like he has. Apparently, Evangelical Christians aren't the only ones convinced we're living in "End Times" and that the Messiah (or in this case the Mahdi(?))is going to be showing up Real Soon Now. So it's the Iranian Prez's job to make sure things are ready and suitably "Islamic" for the Mahdi when he shows up.

Iran now has nuclear capable cruise missiles-at least 12. It will only be a matter of time that this country will use them on Israel. Any thoughts on this issue? Should the US step in now or continue to play the wait game? Lets Roll
