Not funny

Presidential candidate Senator John McCain, in response to a question about a survey showing increased U.S. exports to Iran -- mostly of cigarettes -- replied by saying, "Maybe that's a way of killing them." Despite his initial backpedaling by saying "I meant that as a joke," Senator McCain's comment is unacceptable and very troubling for the Iranian-American community. As one of the most well-educated and affluent immigrant populations in the United States, the Iranian-American community is proud of its contributions to American culture. Unfortunately, Senator McCain overlooked this attribute when he made this statement, and NIAC has expressed its concerns through a letter sent to the McCain campaign Wednesday>>>

پیشگویی

دولتهای غرب، از مجاهدین برای از بین بردن جمهوری اسلامی حمایت خواهند کرد. مجاهدین هم که در حرکتهای تروریستی استاد هستند (اتفاقا از نظر قدرتی اگر کسی از پس جمهوری اسلامی بتواند برآید، همین مجاهدین خواهند بود.) پس ایران تبدیل میشود به ناحیه ی جنگی، با تورم بیشتر، تلفات بسیار، وضعیت آشفته ای که مدرسه، مراکز دولتی و... را از حالت عادی خود خارج خواهد کرد. بعد از مدتی که ایران هر قسمتش دست یا مجاهدین یا جمهوری اسلامی خواهد بود، مردم مرتب کنترل خواهند شد، به طوری که (مثل شرایط افغانستان در زمان حمله ی طالبان به حکومت روسیه در افغانستان) حتی ترک کردن خانه به قصد رفتن به خانه ی دو کوچه آن طرفتر کار بسیار شاق، وحشت انگیز و خطرناکی خواهد بود. بعد از سالها جنگ احتمالا مجاهدین (به دلیل حمایت های مالی و داشتن اسلحه های مدرن که توسط غربی ها به آنها داده خواهد شد) پیروز میشوند. مدتی هم اوضاع به هم ریخته می ماند. >>>

Its current pursuit of nuclear power has added a new chapter to its long story of menacing behavior. But while the international community has come to the conclusion that the Islamic Republic must be prevented from attaining a nuclear bomb, it has not resolved on how exactly to achieve this. A variety of strategies abound as to how to deal with the Iranian nuclear threat. Two of these strategies have become more increasingly debated with the passage of time. The first option offers military action against Iran while the second encourages dialogue with the Iranian government. Neither course of action, however, will achieve sustainable results>>>

Going down the tube

Chalmers Johnson writes: “Most Americans do not recognize-or do not want to recognize-that the United States dominates the world through its military power. Due to government secrecy, they are often ignorant of the fact that their government garrisons the globe. They do not realize that a vast network of American military bases on every continent constitutes a new form of empire... Our country deploys well over half a million soldiers, spies, technicians, teachers, … in other nations… . Whole sectors of the American economy have come to rely on the military for sales.” >>>

A millinium has passed
and another and

no Saoshyant has arrived.
Mahdi won’t arrive either.
By the Jewish account Jesus will come to save the Jews
Or
By the Christian account he will come to end the Judaism. >>>
