Ahmadinejad Issues Orders To Democrats
AFP buries it to the bottom of a story on Iran's latest announcements on their nuclear plans. Those plans are quite chilling enough, mind you. Mad Mahmoud Ahmadinejad informed the world yesterday that they intend to put 60,000 centrifuges into operation. For those who don't quite grasp what that means, it means a weapons program. There is no reason to have that capacity for civilian fuel. But that isn't even the best part of the story. Waaaaaaaay down at the bottom, Ahmadinejad issues explicit instructions for the Democrats who just won the elections:
He also issued a warning to the Democrats, the political rivals of US President George W. Bush who seized control of Congress in elections earlier this month, to force a drastic change in US policy on the Middle East.
"The (current) failure is that of American policy, a policy of aggression, intervention and the utilisation of force. I tell those who recently came to power that if you do the same, the same destiny awaits you."
In a message to Bush and his allies, Ahmadinejad added: "I tell those who are still partially in power to use the time you have left to serve the American people. What are you doing in Afghanistan, Iraq and in the region?
"Renounce this behaviour as otherwise the destiny of all oppressors in the world awaits you too."
All that pre-election rhetoric has a cost. The bill is coming due, folks.

There was a report on the BBC website last night that the UN claims Iran and other countries are violating UN agreements in arming the Islamic Courts in Somalia. Buried in there is a paragraph that mentions that Iran has been talking about trading their support for uranium. A quick web search showed me that uranium is Somalia’s most valuable mineral resource.
Gee, why would Iran need uranium?
