#1 Projection at its worst.

Who is the one talking about a 'Final Solution'?

#2 But yet, he denounces the Holocaust. These two thoughts don't compute. Keep speaking, ole Mister A.

He seems to have such a gasp on history, for comparison purposes. Well, there are lots and lots of us, that still remember that day, 241 of our Marines died. And unless you were with a Marine that day, you really can't understand the impact that Marines suffered that day.

There is lots of history of the last 40 years, that I kinda forget, but I vividly remember 444 days you had our folks.

Work stopped in my office, TV's were turned on, watching Reagan sworn in, knowing, we would next see our guys coming home. (They were on, not for the swearing in, but for what was gonna happen next)

And we stayed glued to those TV sets, watching our folks coming home until each of them were on American soil. That memory is in my head.

Later, one of those folks was quoted, upon being asked, would he ever return to Iran, and he answered, "Yes, in a B-52."

You Middle Eastern folks, Mister A with your history comparisons, aren't the only people with long memories. We've got our and we hold them close.

We are light sleepers. Be careful in waking us up. We don't always wake up in a good mood.

#3 I happened to be in the lobby of one of the New York hotels when some of the hostages arrived there after being released. It was one of the most memorable moments of my life. "Rock star" doesn't begin to convey the reception those folks got.

#4 Didn't you say recently that Hitler wasn't such a bad guy?

#5 I lived in the US at the time of the Iran hostage crisis and 'Nuke Teheran' is still my favourite bumper sticker, well after 'Troy, New York; Home of Son of Sam'.

#7 Beautifully said, Sherry. Thank you for that. I just turned on the computer, and this article is my first news of the day. Iran's comeuppance is coming.

#8 He's just trying to sow discord between Bush and Israel.

#9 Bush = Hitler
Israel = Hitler

... they must have one simplistic decoder ring.

#10 Mahmoud dispays a touch of cognitive dissonance. Take some time to work it out. You will feel much better.

I could recommend a great therapist.
