Sorry for the long layoff. I went on vacation with the family. Took a cruise to St. Thomas, Tortola and Bermuda. Had a great time and lots of debates about politics. One of the big topic on the ship amongst those who cared was Iran and the bullshit they are pulling. He's a quick rant about my thoughts on that Country and their leadership.

Since 1979 Iran has waged a covert war on the United States. From the day they over ran the US Embassy in Iran and took all those American hostages for over 400 days was the day they declared war on us. Since then they’ve had a hand in a number of events that have directly affected America and its allies and interests. Yet nothing ever seems to be done about them. I wonder when they will be held accountable.

Back in the days when Hezbollah attacked those Marines and killed a bunch of them in Lebanon, Iran was directly involved. How is that? Hezbollah IS Iran. But nothing was done.

They have been supplying Hezbollah with all the weapons they have been using on Israel.

They have defied the United Nations Security Councils demands to STOP their Uranium enrichment program. They claim its for peaceful means. Meanwhile their President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has threatened that Israel will be wiped off the face of the earth. He’s also claimed that the Holucost never happened. The man is a sick fuck.

He’s not the guy pulling the strings out there either. Iran is ruled by The Supreme Leader. The Supreme Leader of Iran is responsible for delineation and supervision of "the general policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran". The Supreme Leader is Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces, controls the military intelligence and security operations; and has sole power to declare war. The heads of the judiciary, state radio and television networks, the commanders of the police and military forces and six of the twelve members of the Council of Guardians are appointed by the Supreme Leader. The Assembly of Experts elects and dismisses the Supreme Leader on the basis of qualifications and popular esteem. The Assembly of Experts is responsible for supervising the Supreme Leader in the performance of legal duties. By the definition of monarchy and elective monarchy the Supreme Leader is arguably an elected monarch, similar to the Pope and other such leaders around the world.

The Constitution defines the President as the highest state authority after the Supreme Leader. The President is elected by universal suffrage for a term of four years. Presidential candidates must be approved by the Council of Guardians prior to running. The President is responsible for the implementation of the Constitution and for the exercise of executive powers, except for matters directly related to the Supreme Leader. The President appoints and supervises the Council of Ministers, coordinates government decisions, and selects government policies to be placed before the legislature. Eight Vice-Presidents serve under the President, as well as a cabinet of 21 ministers, who must all be approved by the legislature. Unlike many other states, the executive branch in Iran does not control the armed forces. Although the President appoints the Ministers of Intelligence and Defense, it is customary for the President to obtain explicit approval from the Supreme Leader for these two ministers before presenting them to the legislature for a vote of confidence.

The above was taken from Wikipedia.

That’s just a taste of who is running this country that has nuclear plans and a desire to destroy anyone who is not a radical islamist.

They are obviously dangerous people who pose a serious threat to Israel as well as America and the free world. So why are they getting away with murder? Why is it not clear cut that they need to be dealt with. And I am not talking about sanctions. That’s the biggest joke of all time. Sanctions. You’ve got countries like France and Russia who apply sanctions on countries like Iraq and then go under the table and make deals with them anyway. Sanctions are a joke.

Why is it that Russia does not want to place these all so powerful sanctions on Iran? It is because they are doing business with Iran. They are doing business with a terrorist based country. It’s a disgrace. Vladimir Putin and his government should be ashamed of themselves.

Its too bad that the Bush Doctorine of either you are with us or you are with the terrorists is not being played out. It should not even be a question. If you are a terrorist, harboring terrorists, supporting terrorists or doing business with terrorists you need to feel the might of the American military. It’s the fucking far left liberal scum that cares nothing about our country that places this political correctness on our government which in turn ties our hands in this war on terror. We could deal with Iran with one easy step. Wipe them out. I’m sick and tired of this shit.

I understand that a lot of Iran is younger people. People who love freedom and love the western style of living. Yet they do nothing to overthrow the animals running their country. Its terrible. They are enabling. It’s a shame but its true and if they arent willing to do something about their country then someone else has to. I cant believe we would let our soldiers get picked off like they have been in Iraq again. Iran’s Air Force has to be wiped out immediately and then their nuclear programs have to be bombed immediately. If they choose to attempt to stop it or fight back then their country should be bombed back into the stone age. Enough of this bullshit!

Israel could have eliminated the problem a long time ago but “public world opinion” for some sick reason is not on Israels side. What is happening in Southern Lebanon to help Israel now against Hezbollah? They are sending in “peace keepers” who have FAILED already at stopping Hezbollah. All these people will do is protect Hezbollah from Israel! It’s a disgrace. While Israel wants to live in a free society with security, there will be 15,000 (a majority French who hate the Jews) peace keepers protecting Hezbollah as they rearm themselves for the next wave of attacks.

Did you hear the leader of Hezbollah say that he didn’t think that kipnapping Israeli soldiers and murdering them after crossing international borders would start such a big war. What a fucking idiot. He’s a lucky man that BETTER stay in hiding because the second he comes out from that hole in the wall in Syria or Iran he’s a dead man.

I hate to come off as such a radical war monger but in order to secure peace we need to eliminate the people who do not want peace. If we don’t they WILL bring their destruction on all freedom lovers everywhere.

I look forward to ranting and hearing some feedback - whether it be good or bad.
