Comments on: A Misdirected Concern http://bluecrabboulevard.com/2006/11/24/a-misdirected-concern/ Summum nec metuas diem, nec optes - Marcus Valerius Martialis Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:00:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 By: Arlo http://bluecrabboulevard.com/2006/11/24/a-misdirected-concern/comment-page-1/#comment-45563 Arlo Fri, 24 Nov 2006 16:27:51 +0000 http://bluecrabboulevard.com/2006/11/24/a-misdirected-concern/#comment-45563 Iran has never proclaimed an intention of wiping out Israel, i.e., killing the Israelis. The dishonesty of this canard undercuts what those who repeat it have to say about anything. They are liars and they lie because they have contempt for truth and for the rest of us. Ahmadinejad explained it on 60 Minutes and its really nothing new. I saw an Iranian reporter on C-SPAN say that Ahmadinejad was saying what Ayatollah Khomeini had said: Israel is a fabrication and the people of the region should have the right to self determination. With the right to self determination, "Israel" would be "wiped off" the map, the same way that the Montenegrans seceded from Serbia and the nation of Czechoslovakia dissolved, i.e., peacefully through referendums and peaceful negotiation. Here's another story: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/11/21/world/middleeast/21land.html?em&ex=1164344400&en=946a65172ac03fd9&ei=5087%0A Let's not hear any more yapping about how terrible the Kelo "eminent domain" decision was by our politicians if its OK for Israel and Israelis to disregard private property rights entirely.
