I’m reminded of an old cartoon by the late Bill Mauldin. It showed a group of Russian Students storming the US Embassy in Moscow, back during the Cold War. In the lower, right corner, one of them is pausing to light a cigarette, and a burly policeman is tapping him on the shoulder,
England, Britain, U.K., well so what. The Supreme Leader here obviously is being accurately depicted, so what? Like Koch and Norquist aren’t affiliated with TEA? La Pierre didn’t have anything to do with the Clinton era flap due to legislation to control weapons, nor did he have a hand in all the protests when Obama was elected and everyone had a hard time finding bullets or guns to buy all of a sudden?
Gee, all the anti-union stuff in the U.S. has nothing to do with folks like AEI, Norquist, or Wall Street puppeteers. The obvious is obvious in protests and outrage around the world, well sometimes not quite so, like WMDs.
Oh boy, I’m with Howgozit. :-| I’ll be consistent; it’s not an English embassy, nor the embassy of the U.K.,it’s the British embassy.@Eryx. Correct, the Scots & Welsh do not have embassies in Iran, and nor do the English.
Gray: I for one have repeatedly pointed out that even "W"s slips of the lip, or tongue, were sometimes funny, but not serious errors. It was the things he did in “signing statements”, regulations, and in bombing the WRONG COUNTRIES who never attacked us, as nations, that were terrible offenses against the Constitution, and well, humanity at large. Now that Perry has taken away his record of “most executions Governor”, he’s lost another claim to fame. That isn’t anything to do with his “slips of the tongue”…
A child never punished for bad behavior becomes a bully, criminal, or worse, like Norquist, or ANY nation where the people let the “children” determine policy based on their childish greed and demand for self-gratification.
“About sixty-one percent of the contents of the Koran are found to speak ill of the unbelievers or call for their violent conquest; at best only 2.6 percent of the verses of the Koran are noted to show goodwill toward humanity. About seventy-five percent of Muhammad’s biography (Sira) consists of jihad waged on unbelievers.” The above Research was done by Dr. Moorthy Muthuswamy, physicist and author of “Defeating Political Islam,” a book designed in order to help America, the leading nation of “civilization,” comprehensively neutralize the radical Islamic threat. Examples of Muhammad’s teachings as quoted from the Quran:Slay those [Jews, Christians] wherever you find them. Drive them out of the places from which they drove you. Idolatry is worse than carnage. Quran 2:190-2:191, "The Cow”Believers, take neither the Jews nor the Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship shall become one of their numbers. God does not guide the wrong-doers. Quran 5:51, "The Table” Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you. Deal firmly with them. Know that God is with the righteous. Quran 9:123, “Repentance,” When you meet the unbelievers in the battlefield strike off their heads and, when you have laid them low, bind your captives firmly. Quran 47:4, “Muhammad,” “But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practice regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.” Qur’an 9:5 Therefore there can be but three types of Muslim’s: (1) Those who are heretics to their religion because they sincerely, but wrongly, believe that Mohamed taught and wanted peace and harmony with non-Muslims. (2) Those that deceive in hopes of garnering the good will of non-Muslims so that they might garner time, intelligence and the means to destroy us from both the inside and the outside. (3) And those who are honest like the Supreme Leader, al-Qaida, the Taliban, and the mujahedeen, all of whom make no apologies for their goal of destroying Western Civilization and its people’s beliefs.
As Neville Chamberlain and the world learned appeasement does not work, except in the short term, with any autocratic group or organization be they a government or a religious mythology. They will persist in their ways until they have either brought Western Civilization down or are themsevlves made impotent.

Yeah, it’s a good thing nobody ever criticized Bush’s slips of the tongue…

trout comparing Norquist to terroristic Iranian leaders.
I’ve said from day 1 that trout hates America, and he proves it more and more every day…

Those who believe the only way to “heaven” is through Jesus, and everyone else burns in Hell, are SO much more “advanced”.

^^Myth IS the mother and father of most bigotry, and xenophobia, thus “war”.

Clever…not only it is staged propaganda, the Iranians did it for us to be afraid of their youth and stop supporting the opposition….
