#1 We get all spun up emotional about this type of statement. It's typical propaganda aimed at their people in an attempt to discredit their enemy, us, and increase their own credibility. This is not unlike Japan's history books rewritten showing them as nonagressors and omitting their war crimes of WWII.

#2 ...And don't forget either that one of the things the Nazis did to make the Holocaust more tolerable to their own people was to dehumanize and demonize the Jews.

The Holocaust denying of the last month or so is our final warning. They are getting ready to strike with their own Final Solution, and we are ignoring it.

#3 Well you know what happens when you Ha"Assumed ....you make an ass out of ...well, just yourself. I'm thinking the survivors of the blowback when the clerics actually attack Israel will look back on these stupid statements and say "what were we thinking, letting these fools run the nation into a smoking hole?"

#4 Mike- No argument there. It seems to me they are doing this to prep their people for a war, just like the Nazis did. They are now forming an alliance with Hamas and Hizbullah, building their own coalition. The Iranians are waiting for what they think is the right time to strike. My guess is as soon as we go into retrograde in Iraq. We will be at our most vulnerable state then, just as the Dems want it, sorry couldnât resist the jab at the Dems. I think they will hit both the US troops and Israel. What they are underestimating is our ability to turn the place into a glass plate. If they think we wont do it they are in for a surprise. As a matter of fact I think there would be a line of folks that would love to push that button on Tehran.
