Here we go again. [sigh]

Will the islamo-fascist crap from the dark side of the ME ever stop ? Or rather: How do we make it stop ?

There used to be great spies in the Cold War. What happened to good old-fashioned spies (possibly with a license to kill) ? :P

I think we better use a good volunteer (a suicide bomber preferably) soon b4 satellites reveal the first Iranian long distance nukes

[joea]

They voted an idiot into office. Feels good to talk about the Middle East for once instead of: US, UK, France, Canada...we have voted idiots in but this.

Seriously...humint has seriously been lacking in the "war on terror".

[Type941]

he starts to remind me of an internet troll, this Abbzjzjzmadjad.

[Oberon]

Did him and MSS go to the same school or something?

[Konovalov]

Perhaps Ahmadinejad and other fellow Holocaust deniers such as Mel Gibson's father should all get together at Iran's nuclear reactor site just when Israel launches an airstrike upon it and kill two birds with one stone.

Can I get some attention in media please?

Perhaps not refering to him as an Islamo-Fascist might be a start. Just because someone uses a religion to justify their acts does not mean they conform to that religion.

I recall Adolf Hiter used christrian rhetoric to justify his actions. But to call him a Christian Fascist would be offensive - right?

This guy in question wants the west to condem him as an Islamic fundermentalist because it allows him to turn around and say "Look its true, they are against you the people and what you believe in." Treat him like any other dictator, contain him within his boarders but do not attack his beliefs. If you don't give him an enemy, then he can not frighten the Iranian people into unifying the people of Iran behind him.

Posting a picture of a Nuclear Bomb with the suggestion thats what we should do to Iran on a public forum on the other hand is not the cleaverest way to achieve this aim.

Oh and whilst i'm here, Iran isn't technically in the Middle East.

How true. And hence Iranians aren't Arabs. They are Asians.

On the contrary. Perhaps it's time everyone called a spade a spade.

[Oberon]

Or just take the spade and whack him over the head with it

[Hitman]

Well at least you must recognize that he is an idiot truly representative of the idiots that elected him The "representative democracy" worked again like a charm :rotfl:

Scroll down here to the subheading "Was There Electoral Fraud?". In fact, read the whole thing.

Why is a partisan article of little rigour or substance which quotes as its only source a President who allegedly claims he goes to war when 'god' tells him to [yes I know its a long sentance]... relevent to this topic.

Infact, wouldn't you be better off not posting an irrelevent article and instead trying to rebutt my last post. What exactly is wrong with what I said? Surely you can answer that?

And thencould you also answer my last question on the Explosions in London thread whilst your at it.

DAB, speaking of partisanship, Bush never said such nonsense. Now why couldn't you tell us that?! :hmm:

And since you accuse the article of partisanship, just how is that so? It must be very easy to reveal the false facts and foundations it is built upon. Go ahead. Tell us.

Infact, wouldn't you be better off not posting an irrelevent article and instead trying to rebutt my last post.

Knowing ones enemy is most relevant.

They don't call it the "Islamic" Republic of Iran for nothing. It's run by some highly religious people and authorities. If you don't recognize them as such, please tell us why?

And thencould you also answer my last question on the Explosions in London thread whilst your at it.

I'll have a look.............................................. ......

OK:

Yeah, but all the other news outlets seem to be selective on what they parrot. Most of the news outlets I've seen haven't bothered to say that.

Even the BBC initially mentioned the concern of a terrorist incident - and they are not basing themselves on the AP disptach.

Who else did you see quoting AP that didn't parrot it and are "selective", as you call them?

Question: Why have most news outlets decided not to empahsise the July 7th bombings and Fox have? Just because one other news outlet has followed Fox's lead (or vice versa - it doesn't change my argument), doesn't mean that its legimitmate speculation.

My initial point was don't blame Fox. Blame AP. I find it humorous that so many people have reflexes of shouting "Fox! Fox!" all the time, when they are often nothing more than a carbon copy of the mass media news services that feed them.

Don't misunderstand me. I am no Fox fan nor am I a fan of AP or most any other news agency today. But there seems to be a special Anti-American pastime in thinking that only the US' Fox can spew such low quality sensationalist news. You'll find the same nonsense spewed just as much by Reuters and AFP, to name a few.

2) So we have reports that Islamic Terrorists are going to attack at Christmas. This would be the same warning as last year...the year before that...the year before that...the year before that...the year before that. And the IRA before that.

My text for that link was the word "Boo". Did it make you jump up to the ceiling in panic for your loved ones? Me neither.

Oh and whilst your there. Perhaps you can explain how this is an Al Quiada attack.

First of all, it's turning out to sound like it was a work accident and not an attack.

Second of all, fact is someone using Al Qaeda's name made the announcement they did 4 days before. Anyone who shares Al Qaeda's beliefs could consider performing such a terrorist act. I do not believe you have to be a card-carrying member.

Oh and then explain why this is an Al Quiada attack and not an omen of the comming of the Son of God - or the second coming of the Christian Son of God. Given there is equal evidence for both theories.

You forgot Budhist monks and Mormon choir boys.

Get real.

In the mean time, I am going to cower in terror at the local Taven and have a couple of drinks - secretly being suspicious of the local ethnic minority groups that I am supposed to be socialing with.

Whatever.
