Palin: Ahmadinejad Wants Nuclear Weapons for a Second Holocaust
Created: September 20th, 2008 | Written By: Kathy


This woman is demented:

Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin warned against Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s pursuit of nuclear weapons for a “second holocaust,” while blaming “Democrat partisans” for forcing rally organizers to withdraw her invitation to speak before an anti-Iran protest in New York next week.

“John McCain and I are committed to drawing attention to the danger posed by Iran’s nuclear program and we will not waver in our commitment,” Palin told a crowd of 9,000 supporters in Blaine, MN. “I will continue to call for sustained action to prevent Iranian President Ahmadinejad from getting these weapons that he wants for a second holocaust.”

Now that’s the way to address the danger of a nuclear-armed Iran: Use the most inflammatory, hostile, confrontational language you can possibly muster to accuse Iran’s president of actively planning a repeat of the worst and most horrifying crime against humanity of the twentieth century — with absolutely no evidence or factual basis for the charge. That is certain to cool things down and make us all much safer.

Can someone put duct tape over this woman’s mouth? Her ill-considered, ahistorical, utterly ignorant public statements are a threat to national security.

1. He can't be planning a second Holocaust when he doesn't believe in the first one

:shrug:

2. The Bush/Cheney Republicans gave Iran a big wet kiss.

Why are we taking crap from "what Bush Doctrine?" Sarah Palin when Bush and Cheney, her fellow Republican idiots, gave Iran the biggest geopolitical gift ever given? Bush/Cheney gave the Iranians Iraq. What was once a powerful, Iran-neutralizing rival has now become a friendly, oil rich neighbor.

Iran should celebrate Bush's birthday as a national holiday. Palin should go back to Alaska and track down some meth labbers and malemute molesters.

3. pandering to the lowest common denominator in Murika while the rest of the world sharpens their

swords.

The GOP has become a clear and present danger to the well being and defense of the United States of America.

PaleoPalin is, at best, a well-spoken, moose-killing, unfit soccer mom who should not even preside on a municipal council.

20. Hi Swamp Rat...

Really happy to see you back, and in fine form. This place was not the same without you.

Three cheers - Swamp Rat is back!!!

6. Secondary source?

Can that be verified by any secondary source? It just strikes me as a little too stupid. Politicians usually try to avoid the word holocaust, unless they really are taking about The Holocaust.

[babylonsister]

7. Yes, she IS that stupid. Google Palin + holocaust, and ABC News has an

article there. I can't provide the link; for some reason, it's hanging my 'puter up.

8. Paranoia

Unbelievable... it is just paranoia. It's the oldest trick in politics. You make people believe that all those nasty foreigners are after you. If you scare people enough, they turn inwards. Hitler did it. Stalin did it. Putin does it today, as well as Ahmadinejad. And Palin...

[babylonsister]

9. Like Bush, they're trying to use the terror card to scare people.

They figure it worked in 2004, it's worth a shot.

[Celebrandil]

13. Unfortunately, it works.

The problem is that Ahmadinejad does the same to boost the support from his own people. So the scare boulder starts rolling.

14. Unfortunately, it works.

The problem is that Ahmadinejad does the same to boost the support from his own people. So the scare boulder starts rolling.

11. She's not a politician, she a Pentecostal beauty queen that views handing it all to BigOil...

just another life affirming choice for the upward mobility of her husband and family. Pat Robertson ran for prez and uses 'Holocaust' all the time as a for instance

10. 2003: Cheney "Iraq=mushroom cloud" ... 2008: Palin "Iran=mushroom cloud". Oy vey. nt

12. He'd be a foolish leader if he didn't want them with Israeli's pointing their way........

[anonymous171]

15. Typical neoconservative bullshit

[WeDidIt]

17. Even if Iran had nukes, Ahmadinejad would not control them

Ahmadinejad doesn't control foreign policy or the military. He controls internal police and domestic beauracracy.

The Ayatollahs control the military and foreign policy, and they are open to discussions.

18. There oughta be a three-day waiting period for running mates. n/t

19. If Cheney and the Neo Cons say Iran has a nuclear weapons program....

...it's a safe bet it only a nuclear energy program.
