I've noticed it time and time again. Muslims seem to say the stupidest things. Hyperbole and lying seem not to be considered lies at all -- maybe just poetic license or something.

They come up with the lamest, weirdest, silliest "Rube Goldberg" type excuses whenever they get their hands caught in the cookie jar, and actually seem to believe them.

This guy is a general -- admittedly a general in charge of a bunch of freaky, fanatic looney-tunes, but still, he must have something resembling intelligence.

Israel has somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 to 400 nukes which can be delivered by ballistic missile, aircraft or submarine launched cruise missile -- Iran, if they have any at all, has less than 10, untested, unreliable, innacurate missiles tipped with unproven warheads.

Rhetoric is all good and well, but this is getting pretty damn silly.

As a society, they accept the sort of unreality that one usually has to got to the super market check out or the DU to find. I know, I lived among them for several years. My father referred to it as "magical reality". It stems from being powerless for a lifetime. Even the ones that you think should know better live in a world governed by laws that they are not allowed to understand because it would force them to confront the fact that they are powerless because they aren't willing to change it. Americans are the modern Djinn.
