Oh Happy Day!

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's star continues to shine. Could he be more triumphant? Hard to say, everything just seems to be going his way. From one wonderful accomplishment to another, Iran's nuclear agenda just keeps getting bigger and better, and what's more, Allah has willed it so. We have it on the highest authority. And the country's enemies had better watch out. Iran is sick and tired of taking it on the chin, accused by the West of harbouring ambitions that the West simply will not allow it.

The Islamic Republic of Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei has spoken his mind, and we should all listen up. This man of God whom Allah has authorized to ensure that his great republic achieve nuclear sufficiency, and even go beyond that simple necessity toward a greater one of nuclear weaponization knows whereof he speaks when he asserts that the United States is guilty of promoting terrorism. Just think: the world has always thought otherwise. But the simple fact is, the United States is terror incarnate.

That open hand of friendship that America's new president is proffering doesn't fool anyone. That public split with Israel over Iran's threats to annihilate the Jewish state is a ploy that is so inept only a fool would believe it. So there's Iran's response to Barack Obama's secretive plans with Israel to launch a perfectly unprovoked attack on the Islamic Republic. Don't even think of trying it; we can do you one better. Remember: Jews abhore death, Iranians embrace it; it's the calling card of Islamist jihadists.

The thing of it is, the need to destroy Jews and the Jewish state is so paramount, so vicariously entrenched in the psyche of the ayatollahs and the ahmadinejads of the country that a few hundred thousand, or let's be more practical, a few million incinerated Iranians here and there represent a tolerable sacrifice in the achievement of the greater goal of triumphalist Islam. Anyway, what's the big deal, the Hidden Imam is soon to reveal himself and it will all be moot.

A Pentagon spokesman, all puffed up with his own importance claimed "Iran is at a bit of a crossroads. They have a choice to make. They can either continue on this path of continued destabilization of the region or they can decide that they want to pursue relationships with countries in the region and the United States that are more normalized." Is this man sleep-walking into the future? Guess which they'll choose. Is Allah Muslim?

But of course President Barack Obama's offer of friendship is thought of as irresistible. Who would not warmly grasp an outstretched hand of friendship, choose diplomacy over warfare? To do otherwise is to deny the rationality of human capabilities. Is fundamentalism rational? Is there a modicum of naivette here rather surprising in a cosmopolitan academic of Mr. Obama's stature? That he feels goodwill extended is goodwill accepted?

Mr. Obama has asked Iran to "unclench its fist".

President Ahmadinejad's response is how're we doing, chum?
