TEHRAN: A day after President Barack Obama struck a conciliatory tone toward Iran, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad urged Washington on Wednesday to apologize for its actions toward his country for the past 60 years and said it was unclear whether the new U.S. administration was merely shifting tactics or wanted real change.I'm sorry:
-- that Iran's flag has "ALLAH AKBAR" (God is Great) in white Arabic script repeated 11 times along the bottom edge of the green band and 11 times along the top edge of the red band representative of a rights crushing...Theocracy.
-- that 66 Million people have to live under a government of cretinous, tyranical daftness.
-- that subjects of Iran are stoned, beaten, imprisoned and mistreated just because of their gender, sexual orientation, religion or simple views.
-- that Iranian women are trafficked internally for the purpose of forced prostitution and for forced marriages to settle debts; Iranian children are trafficked internally and Afghan children are trafficked into Iran for the purpose of forced marriages, commercial sexual exploitation, and involuntary servitude as beggars or laborers.
-- that Iran signed onto the Kyoto Protocol nonsense.
-- that Iran remains one of the primary transshipment routes for Southwest Asian heroin to Europe; suffers one of the highest opiate addiction rates in the world, and has an increasing problem with synthetic drugs.
-- that Ahmadinejad (aka: Imanutjob) really thinks that Israel is going to allow a nation of terrorist supporting enablers to possess weapons of mass destruction regardless of the position of the United States.
-- that women in Iran can be beaten to a pulp for showing too much skin.
Ahmadinejad also questioned the United States deployment of forces in many places around the world, apparently demanding that the forces be withdrawn. "Who has asked them to come and interfere in the affairs of nations?" he asked, according to Reuters.Anyone recall that scene from "When Mars Attacks?" Rod Steiger's character (General Decker) is deep in the bunker with the president, and in walks the emmisary of the Martians. He promptly shoots Decker with a ray that shrinks him to the size of an animated peanut. General Decker is jumping up and down screaming the entire time as his voice gets progressively more puny and high pitched. He remained defiant right up until the moment that a shoe tread squished him like a bug.
