Birth pangs of an attack?!...
Surely, we're joking. Do we see evidence for the coming of a military attack on the mullahs? First, Enghadinejad (yes, Ahmadinejad) is "invited" to speak at that great caulderon of New York establishment, we're talking about Columbia, of course. Next, there are protests and calls to "uninvite" him. Columbia refuses, and goes on with the show, circa Monday, Sept. 24, 2007. Next up, demonstrations, talk shows, call shows, you name it. "The Evil Has Landed" - with a sub-title -"Hate spewing Iran prez speaks today at Columbia." (New York Daily News), "Go to Hell", "hosting Hitler", "petty and cruel dictator", add your apatite here. All of which may or may not be correct, but they point to the stage being set.
The stage we're talking about is the the preparation of a mass hysteria, numbing of public senses on the society's Achilles Heel- the overwhelming tendency that because the West was late in noticing the Jewish Holocaust, it must act preemptively. Not to mention the warring calls by the "I don't want to be late to the game" Mr. Bernard Kouchner, the French FM. He found the nuclear mullahs to be "unacceptable." (International Herald Tribune, Sept 21, 2007). Lest the reader has forgotten, he is still the co-founder of Medecins Sans Frontieres (www.msf.org). Mr. Robert Gates, the US Secretary of Defense on the day after Admadinejad spoke at the UN, asked the Congress for an additional $43 billion in war funding, saying that "money is necessary to refurbish equipment and consolidate bases in Iraq." (WashingtonPost, Sept 28, 2007). What consolidation you ask, well, the US had been building several new bases near the border crossings with Iran and manning them each. Did we mention the hapless Democratic candidates who are falling over trying to up each other on how best to get rid of a "nuclear Iran"? Iran is not going nuclear, only the mullahs are.
The stage is being set.
Ahmadinejad is a lot of things; he is not a dictator. He does not run the show in Tehran and is only the hardened public face of the Iranian mullahs, much the same way Khatami was the softened public face of the regime some years ago. He is, however, a bon-a-fide mass murderer, and an executioner par excellence. Many Iranians were executed on his order or by his hands.
People of Iran, who want the regime gone, in their hands, are being forgotten.
