Ahmadinejad, that old Holocaust denier, who has threatened to obliterate Israel and likes to call it a "cancerous tumor", tried to show how unruffled he is of the possibility that Israel might try to wipe out his little nuclear program. Both he and the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei have been getting into the act. Khamenei is angry with the US's words about Iran, mainly with Obama's saying that "all options are on the table." Khamenei bluffed with saying that the war will be worse for the USA than Iran.
Now Ahmadinejad is saying that Israel is nothing more than a mosquito. Iran's leaders tell each other these things and then they believe it's true. He says he doesn't need war to get Israel destroyed anyway. He's counting on boycotts to destroy them, which is something the West is doing in moderation to Iran to get them to be open about what they are doing.
Amadinejad, after taking office in 2005, said that with G-d, they shall soon see a world without the USA and Zionism. How nice of him. Only Israel has taken him quite seriously. The USA seems to be quite unruffled by his comments. The only problem is that his comments are followed up by actions that do not look peaceful, like getting to the point of having the capacity to make atomic warfare.
The more nothing is really done by the big powers to prevent a state with a bad resume filled with warlike intentions, the more Israel feels that Iran's intentions could come to fruition. So far there are a lot of meetings throughout the world. That might be enjoyable for those attending, but it gives a lot more time for Iran to finish their deadly project. So far they've met in Istanbul, Turkey which was "constructive and useful." according to Catherine Ashton, chief of EU foreign policy.. Iran will stall with more talks with the USA, Russia, China, Germany, France and Britain, the big P5+1. They get to meet again in Baghdad on May 23rd. Before that meeting, they will hold just "discussions" in Vienna, Austria. They do get around. I suppose they can take all this traveling off of their income taxes as well. They don't seem to be in a hurry and meet the time limit of the "window of opportunity."
Amadinejad refuses to admit there was a Holocaust that slaughtered 6 million Jews and Israel has no intention to allow that to ever happen again. When a country's political dealings consists of outright hatefulness like Ahadinejad has for Israel, you have to beware. The heads of this country are radical fanatics. We know what the world is capable of.doing.

Something I just read that Thomas Erdbrink wrote from Washington Post.
ReplyDeleteAs Iran starts a critical round of talks over its nuclear program, its negotiating team may be less interested in reaching a comprehensive settlement than in buying time and establishing the legitimacy of its enrichment program, Iranian officials and analysts said. Iranians say their carefully crafted policy has helped move the goal posts in their favor by making enrichment a reality that the West has been unable to stop - and may now be willing to accept.
"We have managed to bypass the red lines the West created for us," said Hamidreza Taraghi, an adviser to Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The West had said no to any enrichment, "but here we are, enriching as much as we need for our nuclear energy program," Taraghi said with a smile. (New York Times)
