#1 Mullahspeak, Clintonspeak, and Leftspeak for "I DEMAND THE USA ATTACK AND INVADE ME - VOTE FOR HILLARY AND SOCIALISM = CAPITALISM"!?

#2 Ah yes, here it is... page 598 of the paperback version of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich:

For two whole days I sat with my Government and waited to see whether it was convenient for the Polish Goverment to send a plenipotentiary or not... But I am wrongly judged if my love of peace and my patience are mistaken for weakness or even cowardice... I can no longer find any willingness on the part of the Polish Government to conduct serious negotiations with us... I have therefore resolved to speak to Poland with the same language that Poland for months past has used towards us...

They say Mein Kampf is widely read in Dar al Islam.

#3 Wanna pull out of the NPT, Iran? No sweatskis, go ahead. Simplifies negotiations, even with the EUniks. Everyone with a brain knows where you stand, even the EUniks. And how they deal with you and you linkage with other countries to OIIIIIILLLL will let us know how they stand with you AND with us.

#4 Pose by Ali Larijani usually proceeded by a doctor saying, "turn your head to the side and cough." Or, "how's it hangin?"

Moreover, Iran quit NPT about the tine they started secret nuke programs (circa 1980s)

#5 I hope we've got Tehran, Qom, Bushehr, Tabriz, Khorramshahr and any nuke sites we or the Israelis know of already pre-targeted with MIRVed nukes. We're eventually going to need them and it will probably be sooner rather than later. I suspect that it will only take one Axis of Evil country being burned down to nuclear bedrock for the rest of the world to learn that threatening Israel or America with nukes isn't such a good idea. My vote is for Iran, but NKor is awfully tempting as well.

#6 Keep dreaming mac, its a sweet dream for sure, but a dream none the less.
I've long been convinced that the resolve required to do such a thing just doesn't exist in this country. We'll need to lose a city to an Iranian nuke first before it does and then there will still be the lunatic left and MSM there to undermine any defense efforts. Get used to a nuclear armed Iran.

#7 We'll need to lose a city to an Iranian nuke first before it does

That won't be enough.

By reacting so slowly and timidly to the anthrax attacks, we've announced to the world that our deterrence threats are empty. We no longer have the guts to defend ourselves, and the world knows it.

#8 We don't want the path to become more difficult either, but if you keep talking about disrupting the
world oil market we may just set your ass on fire.
These sandy assholes need a major attitude adjustment, we have let them talk shit for about 3 years now and I think it is high time to put a stop to it. They are the new bully on the block, problem is they don't have the ass to back it up, so the puff up and play tough. When, I say when are we going to show some balls and make a move that scares the shit out of them and makes them straighten up?

#9 Funny you should use mein kampf. I thought about the chamberlain/hitler negotiations when I saw the NKOR thing yesterday. About how Hitler would make a concession, then a demand (sudetenland came to mind)
Interesting negotiating tactic. We are gonna let the NKOR's starve a while so they can think about it.
Iran should quit the NPT. The Afgans want us out anyway, so we need something for idle hands to do...

#10 Iran threatens to quit NPT

Seems to me there's no difference whether they're in or out. A treaty means nothing to them where their nuclear aims are concerned.
