Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei is “very optimistic” that the Zionist Regime will soon experience annihilation.
His guard members gave him their special Nazi salute during his speech in Qom. (ISNA)
Iranian Fars News reported:
Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei stressed that the Zionist regime is moving on a precipice towards demise and it will soon experience annihilation.
“I am very optimistic about the future of Palestine and believe that Israel is moving on the precipice of wane and demise, and God willing its annihilation is for sure,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement Ramadan Abdullah Shallah here in Tehran.
He also called the Zionist regime’s inability to dominate Gaza a miracle, and added, “Despite all its financial and political aids and after laying siege (on Gaza) for more than two years, the Zionist regime could not defeat the resistance of Palestinian people.”
Elsewhere, Ayatollah Khamenei referred to the attempts made by certain Arab governments to help the Zionist regime, and said these attempts are certainly doomed to failure as the Muslim nations always support the Palestinian cause.
Khamenei was optimistic that Israel would be annihilated very soon. (ISNA)

I’m not sure why you people are even concerned. Iran is not a threat – Barack Obama said so.
Don’t you find it amazing that the “Axis Of Evil” – identified long ago by George W. Bush, has turned out to be….Well, the AXIS OF EVIL!
As soon as the American military presence in the Middle East has dwindled to just a token force, Iran and her allies will take action. And that’s scheduled for this coming Summer.
Pleasant thought, isn’t it?

Wow, Rob. I’d not noticed the people below.
I’ve seen hundreds of photos like this, though. This is not new in the umma, the Nazi salute. These even have their hands in fists. I’ve seen more where they are open-handed, like the real deal. In fact this is the first I’ve seen where their hands were in fists. They got the angle right.
You are correct, there are many connections between 1930’s Nazis and Islam. It was Islam which, centuries earlier, came up with the yellow Star-of-David patch with which to mark and segregate the Jews. The Grand Mufti of J’lem, he gave the idea to the Germans.
The Muslims at the time did not hold Jews in high regard – not that they ever did – but, unlike today, they did not regard them as nefarious, hooknosed conspiracists bent on world domination and wealth-hoarding.
That idea THEY got from the Germans, who were at the time creating a population of citizens who were to eradicate millions of Jews, but they just needed to be convinced that the Jews were something which needed extermination.
Yes, the Nazis and Islam shared a lot of ideas, philosophies, and techniques. It’s all the devil’s children, really. You can look at “Pallywood” (Do a google search of “The Mohammed Al-Dura Affair”) and our Hollywood/TV-News industries and see that these two groups also share ideas and techniques and methods, both ways.
Great comment, RDW.
February 8th, 2010 | 9:39 am | #19
Since the Israelis are the target of an Iranian extermination plan, they obviously cannot afford the luxury of a Pollyana, cafe-debate world view like Obama thinks is so modern.
But Israel can go-it-alone if she has to… the IDF probably has the military capacity already to not only bomb Iran, but win the wider Middle East war that is likely to result.
Unlike vs. Hezbollah in 2006, the Israelis would fight this one to win, and win BIG… vs. Iran, Syria, Hezbollah, and the rump Hamas.
Team Obama would be well-advised to keep an eye on the horizon anytime they’re visiting their new pals in Tehran… for a formation of Israeli F-16’s coming-in at Mach 2. The IAF did us all a huge favor in 1983, taking out Saddam’s reactor in the face of world condemnation, and they’ll they’ll take care of business again- Israel is used to such misguided moralizing.
And a humiliating attack upon Tehran’s crown-jewel nuclear program will likely topple this heinous regime… in other words, tiny Israel will be doing the job that our wormy president doesn’t have the courage or moral clarity to do.
And Bibi will kick their a*s so hard they’ll be wearing it for a hat- he lost family in the holocaust, he’s not going to kick back let this go down the wrong way for Israel… NO way

When Israel is attacked she will respond with what LIBTARDS call disproportional force. Pictures of injured and dead MUZZLETTES will be on Katie Couric. Only libtards will feel sorry for what Islamofacism has brought on itself.

It is important to note that you don’t have to use a nuke to fight a foe, you just have to threaten to use a nuke, and if people believe you will, then you are in a position to use only conventional warfare to attack a nation. Countries do not attack the U.S. with nukes, even if they have them, because the U.S. is capable of wiping any country off the map with the number of nukes they have in their arsenal. Plus, there are hundreds of U.S. nukes in Europe, and even Turkey, that can be used to attack Iran or any country deemed a threat to the individual countries.
I wonder what the Palestinians are doing with that $900,000,000 US that Obama has promised them. I’m sure these monies and support from terrorist nations, namely, Iran, Palestinians will be able to arm themselves to launch an attack on the country Israel. It isn’t like the country Israel is going to retaliate with a nuke, they will fight a conventional war as well.

Does it matter to anyone that Khamenei didn’t say Iran was going to destroy Israel, just that Israel was going to be destroyed? Don’t get me wrong — I’m no fan of Khamenei. But I don’t know if this declaration is the threat some folks are making it out to be, and I certainly don’t think it’s proof that Iran is “in bed with the Terrorists,” as Karl Magnus suggests. Is it part of a pattern of irresponsible rhetoric? Yes. Is it a sign that military action against Iran is necessary? I’m not convinced.
I’d hate to see American start a war against a government that’s busy imploding anyway. The people who would suffer the most are the Iranian people who are protesting against the government already.
Does anyone really think military action by Israel wouldn’t end up involving the U.S.? We have troops on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan — Iran’s neighbors. The Iranian government has apparently already been supplying explosives for use against our troops — why wouldn’t they escalate their efforts in the face of an Israeli attack?
Can you imagine what would happen if the U.S. military were drawn into a land war in Iran? The Iranian army is significantly better trained and funded than the Iraqi army was, and I suspect the people of Iran would unite around their government the way they did in 1980 when Saddam attacked. Military solutions always seem neater on paper than they work out to be. Notice that we’re still in Iraq and Afghanistan?
No one on this thread wants to see Israel harmed — least of all me. But the Iranian government doesn’t have a nuclear weapon, isn’t really in a good position to launch a conventional attack against Israel, and appears to be on the brink of collapse itself. The Iranian government’s strategy since 1979 has been to use propaganda and rhetoric to focus people on outside enemies — like the “Great Satan” and Israel. I suspect this is more of the same.

February 8th, 2010 | 11:35 am | #33
It’s most likely that if Israel is attacked (G-d forbid) by nuclear weapons, the American people and most administration officials will support it’s retaliation.
That is no real comfort, however, and I’m embarrassed to type the sentiment out. No one living in Tel Aviv would even say thank you for such a limp gesture of solidarity.
The question is, will we support Israel when she launches a preemptive nuclear attack on Iran? Let us resolve to do so.
May G-d bless, protect and guide Israel, to victory in war, and prosperity in peace.
Best regards, Peter Warner.

Why Haven’t We Seen This? 10/29/05
[We have a strategy drawn up for the destruction of Anglo-Saxon civilization... we must make use of everything we have at hand to strike at this front by means of our suicide operations or by means of our missiles. There are 29 sensitive sites in the U.S. and in the West. We have already spied on these sites and we know how we are going to attack them.
[..]
The Americans are not ready to send a million men (to defeat the Islamic Republic),” Abbasi said. “Even economic sanctions against the Islamic Republic will fail thanks to opposition from the Western public opinion and the refusal of most countries to implement (them). …
But it is not only the US that Abbasi wants to take on and humiliate. He has described Britain as “the mother of all evils”. In his lecture he claimed that the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Israel, and the Gulf states were all “children of the same mother: the British Empire.” As for France and Germany, they are “countries in terminal decline”, according to Abbasi.
“Once we have defeated the Anglo-Saxons the rest will run for cover,” he told his audience.]

I say to the average Iranian who doesn’t wish death to Israel (is that an average Iranian? I don’t really know…I know that they mostly hate their regime, but do they still wish death to the big and little satans?)…okay, I say to those Iranians, whatever percentage of the population you may make up, “What would you have us do if your government nukes a western target?”
BECAUSE
I know that the majority of people on the earth whose opinions are of significant enough weight to influence events believe that we should wait until they DO SO, which is utter neglectful suicidality and apathy on a barely-comprehensible scale, but that’s the way things are. The World Can Wait…for the long and publicly planned atrocity to take place.
So then, after we inevitably allow it to happen, what should we do, Iranian non-Jihadists?
I will bet here and now that the general world consensus will be to talk some more.

Huckabee: Obama should support Israeli strike on Iran. Says president ‘more concerned whether Jewish families build bedrooms on their apartments’
[When asked whether the U.S. should support an Israeli strike
on Iran’s nuclear installations, Huckabee replied, “absolutely.”
[..]
“We’ve got to remember that for Iran, Israel is not the primary target. The United States is. They see [Israel] as certainly an enemy. [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad has made clear that he would like to wipe them off the face of the earth. The real reality is his rhetoric says that the Great Satan is the United States. So he sees Israel as a little devil, but he sees the Unites States as the Great Satan. Anything that is done to Israel is not being targeted solely toward Israel. The ultimate target is the United States.”
[..]
“The president seems to be more concerned about whether or not Jewish families build bedrooms on their apartments then whether Iran is building a nuclear bomb,” said Huckabee.
[..]
“[Talks have been] very ineffective,” he said. “We all hoped these sanctions would work so that military action wouldn’t have to be taken. But I don’t know that the Iranians are taking any comments from
the U.S. to be all that serious.”]

And then we have to talk, and while we’re talking we’ll blame the West, and we’ll blame capitalists, and we’ll blame everyone but the followers of Mohammed doing exactly What Mohammed Would Do… or we’ll go and fight a long and pointless pawn war in the desert or mountains somewhere, letting the leaders of twisted Islam, the catalysts, live in complete peace in their Mosques and our prisons, and our schools, and our media, and our government, spreading their filth.

Oginga Odinga 6/11/65
[Like many other leaders of new African nations, President Jomo Kenyatta has not found it easy to steer a middle course between East and West. His job has not been made easier by the activities of his own Vice President, Oginga Odinga, who admits that "Communism is like food to me" and has been trav eling through the countryside heaping Red-tinged scorn on Kenyatta's ties with the West.
Last week things reached a climax of sorts when Odinga, in his first direct attack on his President, rose at a rally on the shore of Lake Victoria to declare that Kenyatta had fallen under imperialist influence and was all but taking his orders from the U.S. and Britain. It brought an outraged response from Kenyatta's Cabinet ministers, who called the attack "cheap politics" and "calculated to further the cause of Communism." Five party leaders, already angered by Odinga's role in Communist arms imports (TIME, April 23), signed a petition demanding his resignation from the government.]

If SA and Egypt are nations, then so are Indiana and Ohio.
How long will we continue to play pretend with the Ummah, as if all these nations are separate entities? Those national boundary lines were drawn up by the West, and it served their purpose marvelously. Each cell of the Ummah can point to the other cells while all working for the same goal, helping each other, recognizing the Ummah, pretending to recognize the separate “Nations” for the deception, not to mention more seats at the U.N. We should get fifty, but we’re not pretending to be fifty separate nations, becuase, well, we don’t do Taqiyya, being more honest brokers than the Ummah has traditionally been.

How can I eat my words? Iran wishes to and aims to annihilate Israel. This will not change in a couple of months or a couple of decades.
Trust me, in a couple of months or even a year, if somehow Iran manages to resist the urge to use its new nuke technology – which it has been itching to use for quite a few years now, which it has been obviously steadily improving, in honor of which it holds near monthly public parades with missiles plastered with nuke symbols and messages of “Death to Israel” – it won’t be for lack of trying, but for divine patience on the part of either God or of the SANE nations which could prevent it and did.
So, no.

uh-oh, your BDS slip is still showing..
but hey, what do you know about
missions being accomplished??
The USS Abraham Lincoln’s Mission Was Accomplished
[We have difficult work to do in Iraq. We're bringing order to parts of that country that remain dangerous. We're pursuing and finding leaders of the old regime who will be held to account for their crimes. We've begun the search for hidden chemical and biological weapons, and already know of hundreds of sites that will be investigated.
We are helping to rebuild Iraq where the dictator
built palaces for himself instead of hospitals and schools.
And we will stand with the new leaders of Iraq as they
establish a government of, by and for the Iraqi people.
The transition from dictatorship to democracy will take time, but it is worth every effort. Our coalition will stay until our work is done and
then we will leave and we will leave behind a free Iraq.]
the US attained “victory” via their mission to oust the Saddam Regime, which our incredible troops accomplished it in less than 3 weeks, record breaking time..

no, you said you doubt Iran would use nukes..
but i agree, we will not be sending ground troops into Iran.. we will one way or another however, stop Irans nukes from going anywhere.. as the facts stand now, we have much to be thankful to Israel for the bombing of Iraq’s & Syria’s nuclear facilities.. i wish them the same outcome on Irans because Obama is trying for an Iran first strike to bring on the return of the 12th Mahdi/Imam, something i believe he believes he’s more aligned with..

We have had troops in Japan and Germany since 1945 and Korea since the 50’s despite the end of hostilities. It’s called deterrence.

the war is not Obama’s to declare”over”..
as he did not declare the war in the first place..
the ISLAMISTS did.. hello??

Hey Tom, why don’t we let Iran decide when and where to fight their proxy wars? That’s always a great way to approach an adversary. Worked real well for Israel in 2006, didn’t it!
I’m sure a brilliant military mind like yours has read, The Art of War, by Sun Tzu, and know why you let the enemy determine how the engagement begins.

It would seem that tom is today’s Concern Troll of the Day; dedicated to increasing and exacerbating the fears and doubts of any potential “eeyores” out there.
Unfortunately, he’s given away by his BDS demanding that he take a shot (subtle, of course) at GWB – no matter how off-track or false. He just can’t resist the impulse!
The new AA (axlerod Astroturf) Effort seems to have attracted a bit better quality troll – able to hide their purpose behind “concern”. It takes some perception – and a careful reading of their posts – to discern their intent. but they become recognizeable with time.

That’s my point. When you send troops in, it can be hard to get them back out. Not really a controversial point, except on here.

We have had (5) deaths (of heroes) in Iraq this year.
9-11-07 – A US army Black Hawk helicopter crashed in northern Italy, killing five American military personnel and injuring the other six on board, officials said.
2-1-10 – A US army helicopter has crashed near the German city of Darmstadt, killing at least three people, a spokesman for the firefighters said
1-22-10 – Human error is to blame for the crash of a Black Hawk helicopter on a Colorado mountain that killed all four crew members in August, the Army said Friday.
Not to mention the 13 Killed at Fort Hood in Texas.
I could go on and on.
Being in the Military is a dangerous occupation no matter where you are.
I think this disscussion is over.

fact of the matter is Tom..
WE ARE IN A LONG WAR THAT WAS DECLARED
ON US&WEST BY ALLAHU AKBAR ISLAMISTS..
thank goodness our troops are stationed in countries where they are not “getting killed” and peace still more or less reigns, well, for now anyways..
meantime, US troops stationed right here in America are “getting killed”.. yes, we’re being attacked right here in our own back yard, ie: does Fort Hood ring a bell?? dang Tom, can’t imagine what you’ll say when the jihad kicks into full swing here in America.. probably something like “our troops in Europe and East Asia aren’t getting killed.” duh!!

I stand with Israel and the IDF. The threat is real but it is the standard Islamic ideological ploy – threaten, threaten, threaten to force a preemptive attack and then cry foul and cry that Iran is the victim. Nothing new here in the Ayatollah’s methodology. Same method used here in US on smaller levels for now. What is for certain is that Israel cannot wait it out to see who blinks in this “game of chicken”.
Obama will be in Indonesia discovering his roots so he’ll be out of town.
God bless Israel and God bless the IDF. Do what you have to do and ask questions when the dust settles.

Iran’s president orders production of higher-enriched uranium
[TEHRAN -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Sunday ordered the production of higher-enriched uranium -- significantly
beyond the levels of its regular nuclear fuel -- prompting the United
States to renew threats of carefully targeted sanctions.
[..]
The IAEA said in a November report that Iran had not gone beyond its declared maximum enrichment level of 5 percent. Analysts say Iran is not yet able to produce enough uranium enriched at 20 percent to supply the needs of the Tehran reactor, but that it may not be far away, either.
“Iran could have been preparing for a few months to make 20-percent material, in which case they could start the process of producing this material on Tuesday,” said David Albright, a former weapons inspector and president of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington. “Otherwise, on Tuesday they could start preparing to do so. We will have to wait and see what the IAEA says about what it knows and when they knew it.”]
Earth to idiots in charge, they have been & still are in VIOLATION..
this is nothing more than a Overton Window exercise.. iow: pay no attention to the old violations, watch the new violations, if they’re lucky, they can do that until they deliver a mushroom cloud or two, or 29!! gah!!

Will Tehran choose the Tiananmen solution?
[In one of those ironies of which Iranian history is full, on February 11, the anniversary of the Khomeinist seizure of power, Revolution Street will be the dividing line between two forces fighting for the country’s future. Under an informal deal negotiated between the authorities and the opposition, two rival marches will be held to mark the anniversary.
[..]
Suddenly Mr Ahmadinejad and Mr Khamenei appear to have become irrelevant as millions of people in insurrectional mood are pitted against the Islamic Revolutionary Guard, which must decide whether to abandon the regime or drown its opponents in a bloodbath.
[..]
His declaration, broadcast live on state television, seemed to be an abrupt contradiction of what his Foreign Minister was saying. Only hours before Manouchehr Mottaki announced Tehran’s readiness to exchange Iranian low-grade enriched uranium with higher-grade foreign enriched uranium at some unspecified point. The stratagem was devised by Russia and France to provide the US President, Barack Obama, with a fig leaf to cover the failure of his “extended hand” policy towards the Khomeinist despots.
[..]
For years, two clocks have been simultaneously ticking in Iran: one counts the regime’s days, the other marks progress towards a Khomeinist bomb. Thanks to the pro-democracy movement, the first clock may now be running faster.
[..]
The history of Shia-ism is full of schism provoked by political disputes disguised as religious differences. Today Khomeinism faces the risk of becoming yet another isolated fanatical sect such as the Akhbaris, the Heydaris, the Nematis and scores of other long-forgotten factions.
[..]
For the first time in 30 years, a substantial segment of Iranian society, perhaps even a majority, is prepared for a democratic experience. Today the mood in Iran is very much like the one that made possible the Constitutional Revolution of 1906, and the creation of the first democratic parliament in the Muslim world. Rather than chasing the illusion of stopping the nuclear clock in Iran, the outside world should take greater notice of the clock of regime change.]
