LONDON, July 24 (IranMania) - Hardline Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told arch-foe Israel to "pack up" and move somewhere outside the Middle East, Iran's State News Agency (IRNA) reported.

"I advise them to pack up and move out of the region before being caught in the fire they have started in Lebanon," said Ahmadinejad, who has repeatedly called for the Jewish state to be relocated elsewhere on the planet.

Iran refuses to recognise Israel and opposes any two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Ahmadinejad has in the past called for Israel to be "wiped off the map" or relocated as far away as Alaska, the report said.

1. Is Ahmadinejad on the neo-con payroll?

It seems like he is saying just what *, Rice, Israel, Wolfowitz, Rummy, AIPAC, Fox News,
and so on want him to say.

[Totallybushed]

4. Oh, come on.

i wouldn't put anything past Bush & Co, but I think the guy hates for his own purposes, not theirs.

[Botany]

10. Slap one on.

[xultar]

7. Ding! You are correct!

[WilliamPitt]

8. No, but he is their creation

"Bush said you couldn't negotiate with bad guys. In Iraq, where Saddam turned out to be telling the truth about nuclear weapons and Bush turned out to be lying, diplomacy was forsaken for war. Syria, which gave the US genuine intelligence help after 9/11, was deemed a nation not worth diplomatic engagement. As former National Security Council official Flynt Leverett documented, an overture by the then-moderate Iranian government in 2002 was blown off by the United States."

...and that, plus the invasion of Iraq, gave us this batshit crazy asshole of an Iranian leader.

27. Egg Zac Lee

Just like N. Korea ..... Clinton talked and they didn't make bombs or missiles
bush quit talking and now they have missiles and at least 4 to 5 A bombs.

And now Condi is saying asking for cease fire would be bad ..... these are
full bore idiots and crooks.

[oberliner]

15. wow

AIPAC tells Ahmadinejad what to say?

[SensibleAmerican]

21. Yeah

n/t

[ladjf]

31. I've been thinking about that for weeks. He couldn't be more

perfect for the Neocons plans. But, how int he hell could the Iranian President be on the same side with them? He wouldn't want his country "Lebanonized", i.e. infrastructure destroyed. He couldn't be bribed by the NeoCons. That makes no sense. He could just be crazy. Or, he might have some hard evidence on Bush that he would reveal in the event of an imminent attack. (I doubt that is the case)

2. Fucking asshole. Who is HE to tell anyone else what to do?

6. He's got as much right to say

what he wants as anyone else-the question is whether or not you listen. Come on, it's not near as outrageous as some of the statements issued by "Our Glorious Leader" and his minions.

[Poppyseedman]

16. He wants to entire country of Israel to "pack up" and move

somewhere outside the Middle East, I realize bush and his minions have said some pretty outrageous things, but this idea is pretty far out there.

He may have a right to say whatever he wants, but he also is the President of a country, which reflects on his country stability.

25. 700,000 Palestinians had to pack up and move

when Israel was established, so it's not as crazy as all that.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

32. mmkay

1,000,000 Jews living in Arab countries were kicked out of their homes in Yemen, Iraq, and Morocco, and other Arab countries, had to pack up and move when Israel was established, so it's not as crazy as all that.

[Douglas Carpenter]

33. do you have any sources on that?

I'm not being antagonistic..frankly I would just like to know if there is any solid evidence

[cali]

35. That's a fair question.

It's widely known that Jews were forced to leave Arabic countries after the establishment of Israel, and largely had to leave all property and assets behind. There's massive documentation for this but i simply grabbed the wiki entry.

"The Jewish exodus from Arab lands refers to the 20th century emigration of Jews, primarily of Sephardi and Mizrahi background, from majority Arab lands. Typically, this emigration followed documentable discrimination, harassment, persecution, and financial confiscation on the part of the majority population and/or government agencies."

[dorkulon]

38. So what's your point?

Does that make what I said untrue?

[Redstone]

22. Well, yeah, you're right. He may be a flaming lunatic, but bushyboy and

them are FAR more lunatic, and more flamingly so, than he could ever dream of being.

He, after all, is only a one-dimensional, one-subject flaming lunatic. On the other hand, bushyboy and them are flaming lunatics on a WHOLE RANGE of subjects, both domestic and international.

Aren't they?

Thanks for mentioning that. Seriously.

[Poppyseedman]

13. Don't be so hard on the guy

He's about to bring about the return of the 12th Imam which will lead the world to an era of universal peace.

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

[Redstone]

17. I appreciate that. I do.

[MGD]

3. I'm sure they'll give Ahmedinejihad's advice all due consideration

[SammyBlue]

5. Same shit these idiots have been saying for 35 years. Yawn.

Iran, you have the balls, attack Israel. Please!!!

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

9. Why?

[SammyBlue]

19. sarcasm.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

24. I Know It Was Sarcasm.

But were you saying "Please" so that Iran themselves would be attacked?

[MGD]

11. Ahmedinejihad is a pussy if he doesn't attack Israel.

[Ms. Clio]

23. it's not his decision

the Presidency of Iran is not nearly as powerful as that of the U.S.

[DinahMoeHum]

37. Yep, the mullahs and ayatollahs in Iran are the real authority.

Ahmadinejad is merely their figurehead.

:evilfrown:

[dorktv]

12. Ahmadinejad is like Bush according to what I have read.

And just as prone to stupid statements obviously.

[SammyBlue]

20. If his last statement is any mark of his intellect, I tend to agree. eom

[dorktv]

28. well he is supposedly a "folksy" kind of guy...and Bush is suppose

to be like that too but is not.

[SammyBlue]

29. Notice folksy and dummy have two syllables and both end in "y"

[DELUSIONAL]

14. Some people don't know when to shut up and be quiet little mice

But then this is the guy bushie wanted in office -- bush's disapproval of this guy sure was helpful to his election.

[Poppyseedman]

18. I missed this concept somewhere

bush wanted Ahmadinejad in office or am i misreading what you posted?

I have never heard that before.

[billbuckhead]

26. Osama wanted Bush to win for the exact same reason

From Emmanuel Goldstein to Zarqawi.

[Marie26]

30. He's gloating. nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

34. Ahmadinejad Is A Most Unpleasant Fellow

eom

[JI7]

36. i wish the people of Iran would rise up against these thugs

[Rex]

39. Crazy mofo!

Pack up and go where, in particular? Oh that's right, you don't care. :eyes:
