I along with a number of other readers on IC have long believed and accused Fred’s real intention for his two-blog-a-day call for “air tight sanction” as a pretext for a call to destroy Iran either by means of bringing Iranians to their knees or flat out war against Iran. One example of such advocacy could have been seen in his blog on January 1st 2010, maybe as a happy new year wish for Iranian.

“If the answer is anything short of war and to avoid it, regime change, then not only such sanctions would be frivolous, they would be criminal.”
For a sake of objectivity, he was asked on a numerous occasion to clarify his intention and position regarding war with Iran and the call were all gone astray with no answers, beside the usual “anti-Semite, Islamist-Palestinian XYZ” etc. type accusation.
I was once even called a “lair” by him to point out to the above quote yet no response or apology once the quote and link was provided to him, again only name calling.
It appears that he may have finally realized the gaff and since the above quote has been changed to
“So, unless the sane world intent on helping the brave fed up Iranians get rid of their Islamist inquisitors lock, stock and barrel, they might as well forego the sanctions”
So, once again a public challenge to Fred’s credibility, the intention of editing the above quote nearly a year later is a change of heart regarding war with Iran or is it merely

Also, does editing such a pervious statement without any acknowledgment constitute a lie or deception?
