Seriously?!?

It's not ALL about Obamacare. I mean, you'd have to be crazy to believe that it was. Or a Republican. But then (as Mark Twain once said), I repeat myself...


It isn't all about Obamacare, but Obama needed to do something to relieve criticism of his healthcare policy in the United States and to try to save his presidency, so he made major concessions to Iran in order to obtain a deal.

His withdrawing of support from the Pro-western Shah lead the Iran government falling to the radical Islamist government whos goal is the destruction of Israel. Had Carter been elected to a 2nd term this drama would have played out long ago.

If the best rebuttal you can come up with is to scrape the bottom of the internet meme barrel and try to find something that sticks, you've already lost.

If the United States hadn't supported the deposing of Mossadegh and replaced him with an autocratic ass-kisser the Islamists wouldn't have been the driving force they became thanks to said autocrat.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be a pan-Islamic plot and proof of Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of loners who do not represent their belief system at all.
The probability of one's participation in homosexual acts is directly proportional to one's public disdain and disgust for homosexuals.
If a political figure makes an accusation of wrongdoing without evidence, odds are probable that the accuser or an associate thereof has in fact committed the very same act, possibly to a worse degree.

That's a damn lie. When peace talks fail, military might is the way to go to get your deal across.

Ah, yes... military action. The cost-free way of getting things done!

That doesn't actually contradict the previous post. In fact, remove "That's a damn lie", and the phrase "Peaceful negotiation is always better than military action when possible. When peace talks fail, military might is the way to go to get your deal across." sounds like basic realpolitik.

Nice to see that in America we can see people still stuck in a late 70s-early 80s mindset regarding Iran despite the entire world stage having shifted drastically since that time.

I don't know about you guys, but I think that we may be looking at a civil war in Iran between the extremists and the moderates after Ali Khamenei dies.

Iran didn't give up their right to nuclear power. In fact, the rest of the world recognized their right to enrich uranium.

You keep using that "wipe off the map" quote. I don't recall any Iranian official ever making such a statement. If anything, it's been Israel that's been attacking Iran recently.


This was said by Mahmoud Ahmadinejed At "The World Without Zionism" conference in Tehran. Although he is no longer President, his ideas are in line with those of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.


No it wasn't.
