#3 Well, anything that might threaten M.E. stability is bad. It's the #1 concern of Persian and Arab regimes alike. They call for it, fuss over it, virtually swoon in favor of it. Except for the "legitimate armed struggle" stuff, of course. That's okay. So are missiles that can reach Europe and nuke warheads, though they're not developing any. It's all part of, um, preparing for the day in 2297 when the oil runs low and they'll need nuke-powered electricity and the ability to swat really big flies. In Berlin.

Glad it's all so clear.

#4 Instability also known as history. Those who call for stability are just voicing the fears of the history yet to come, and so they should.

#5 "Iran supports peace" As they used to joke about Hitler: a peace of Czechoslovakia, a peace of Poland, a peace of Russia, a peace of France...

#6 I am so sick of this "legitimate struggle to recover their occupied lands" crap. Syria was an aggressor in a war. Syria lost those lands. Syria lost the war. Case closed. Want to talk about "occupied lands"? Then talk about Syrian troops in Lebanon.

#7 Everything outside of Arabia is occupied lands by Arabs. The invaded and occupied Egypt with its Coptic Christian people, Syria with its Monophysite Christian people, Persia with its Zoroastrian people...

#8 Pledge of support:
"We'll stand over here and cheer from the sidelines while you get your head handed to you."
