Countdown button pushed on Israel's destruction

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad never fails to take opportunities to speak out against Israel. In the latest spew, he gives credit to Lebanon and the Palestinians: "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stated yesterday that Lebanon and Palestine had pressed a "countdown button" to bring about the demise of Israel."

"With God's help, the countdown button for the destruction of the Zionist regime has been pushed by the hands of the children of Lebanon and Palestine," Ahmadinejad said in a speech.

"By God's will, we will witness the destruction of this regime in the near future". No further elaborations were offered by the President.

These remarks reiterate past statements made by Iranian head of state who two years ago triggered outrage in the West by declaring Israel should be "wiped off the map". While Ahmadinejad has often referred to the destruction of the Jewish state he continues to claim Iran does not pose a threat to the nation. (ToTheCenter.com)

Is Ahmadinejad willing to let those associated with the Palestinians bring Israel down and take the credit? We all know that Iran is assisting these groups with money, arms, men, and training. Perhaps he is willing to sit back and let others do his bidding.

Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said yesterday the world would witness the destruction of Israel soon, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported. (NY Daily News)

Ahmadinejad's aspirations are lofty, but in reality he is a short, under-dressed, arrogant little man who has much less power than he would like. He's frustrated. He's like a child that wants another child's toy and can't seem to get his hands on it. He puts grandmothers, women and old men in prison and charges them with crimes of espionage. He's dangerous. If the US is conducting black-ops in Iran, good for us and good for the Iranian people. The sooner Ahmadinejad is gone, the better.

Au contraire, Señor Hamilton. I believe that a nuclear attack against Israel by Iran (or frankly a nuclear attack against anywhere by Iran) will result in a war unlike anything we've ever seen or can imagine. Aside from the fact that Debbie commented that ORNL is a terror target (which it is - but its security is pretty sound and its been improved since the Y12 problems a few years ago), you've got the luxury of living inland...and mostly away from targets (even though there are targets everywhere).

I also believe that if intelligence sources indicate, there will be a pre-emptive strike by Israel...the result will still be a war, and it will still likely be unlike any mass death we've ever known.

I wouldn't worry SW. We have become such wimpy thangs that even a strike against Israel would probably result in only a stern warning from the UN.

Wooooooo! You know how scared tin pot dictators are of those things!

A threat to be effective must be believed.

If Israel believes the threat, then most certainly there will be a pre-emptive strike.

Surely even Ahmadinejad knows that a strike against Israel would likely bring reprisals and possibly then bring on the war that a few of your more prominent readers have called for.

The Middle East turned to glass benefits no one.

Why is the world keep on fighting? They've been all blinded by their powers and pride. They should have settle small things off to avoid making it big. Innocent people are suffering day by day. Afraid of being hit by a bullet from their roofs [ Commercial Roofing | Residential Roofing ]. Their seeking refuge and they wanted this to end. To end without using arms...

Ah......I'm out of the Momo loop!!!!!!!!!

I really have no clue why this guys words don't mean more to more people.

Day in, day out their intent is publicized, but they all just assume it's rhetoric.

Rhetoric is reality in those parts!
