 righthand says: A recent congressional resolution on Iran underscores the War Party's lock on the foreign policy 'debate'. Calling on the UN to bring charges of "genocide" against Iranian is yet another example of political pandering and congressional grandstanding that bears little, if any, relationship to reality. The resolution is motivated by a mistranslation of a speech given by Ahmadinejad, in which he cited the Ayatollah Khomeini and seemed to call for Israel to be "wiped off the map." Yet, as this piece by Jonathan Steele, and this comment by Farsi-speaker and Middle East expert Prof. Juan Cole make very clear, that is not what the Iranian President said, or intended to say. Ahmadinejad didn't say Israel must be "wiped off the map," he said the current regime in Tel A... Apparently only a very small handful of people on the planet think that quote was taken out of context. A Google search turns up about 335,000 hits on the topic and the vast majority over 95% say he meant what he said. Even Aljezeera states the obvious. Just not to you. Oh, and before anyone tries to defend those poorly placed remarks by Irans voicebox, it's far too late. Manouchehr Mottaki, the Foreign Minister tried in vain to do 'damage control' and dispel the poorly uttered words, but the damage is done and the world heard it first.

And Cheney & Co.will not be doing the dying, just making the money, by keeping America afraid, very afraid. Is it a case of the lunatics running the asylum? Cheney had his money in a hedge fund that was setup so if the American dollar was to fall he wouldn't loose his shirt. Many people would say that's smart investing, but I say that considering his seat and what information he is privy to, that would be underhanded. say : secondary agendas to running his (according to him) non-executive office... War is also good for the economy, look back in history. But the fallout is incalculable due to the physiological and physical toll on people. War is hell. It makes and breaks people. See WP Part 3: The Cheney Vice Presidency today and a tiny bit from... 'A Different Understanding With the President' Cheney is not, by nearly every inside account, the shadow president of popular lore.
