TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Sunday inaugurated the country's first domestically built long-range unmanned bomber aircraft, calling it an "ambassador of death" to Iran's enemies.

Speaking to a group of officials, Ahmadinejad said, "The jet, as well as being an ambassador of death for the enemies of humanity, has a main message of peace and friendship."

The ceremony came a day after Iran began to fuel its first nuclear power reactor , with the help of Russia, amid international concerns over the possibility of a military dimension to its nuclear program.

Another thing to thank BO for.

This is “smart power,” unlike the cowboy diplomacy of Bush.

Looks a lot like our 50's - 60's era Snark missile.

Maybe that is what we should call it... the Islamic Snark.

"The jet, as well as being an ambassador of death for the enemies of humanity, has a main message of peace and friendship.

"Gentlemen, there is no fighting in the War Room!"

Yet more glad tidings from the religion of peace and their representative in our White House.

It was nice of Tehran East High to donate the props from their drama department for the backdrop.

What kind of ice cream is potus eating this morning? Any word on the winner of the H.O.R.S.E. game?

What a campy stage display. Looks like something the NK’s would do. Very provocative to debut a new long rang weapon at this time I would say.

Have they finally stamped ‘SUX’ on Zero’s head?

Doing this after fueling the reactor??? They are either totally clueless and think this would “scare us” into not attacking them or they are just begging to be wiped off the map.

"Don't worry. We have weapons of this nature, and it's only fair that others have them as well. But matching us in our weapons, they insure that we think more wisely before employing them unnecessarily. Such drones insure peace between our nations."

Well, as long as it's meant to bring a "peaceful" death it's right in line with what Ahmadinejad has been professing for years.

The article says that it is 4 meters long.

Reminds me of the Stonehenge in Spinal Tap.

"The jet, as well as being an ambassador of death for the enemies of humanity, has a main message of peace and friendship."

Who wrote that doublespeak? Valerie Jarrett?

[P.O.E.]

What's that in the foreground? ?

[Popman]

What a campy stage display

The "Ambassador of Death" looks like a stage prop to me

One has to wonder if a "real one" actually exists

Hey, Iamanutjob how about some real time video of your new toy?

LOL, it was a balsa wood glider!!
