Hey, we can just disregard the carrot and move right to the stick if they wish.

Boy, Biden was right with over a month to spare.

Does anyone know if that one person speaks for the entire Iranian parlaiment?

Re: ““The Americans don’t have the stomach for death that we have in Iran,” Larijani boasted. “

He well may be right about that.

The intended victims of their grand plans of extermination might, however, in the interest of self-preservation (Remember that “Never Again!” thing?) give them an abundant bellyfull of their desired “martyrdom”... hopefully before it’s too late to save the World from a nuclear holocaust that will probably spread far beyond the middle East.

Is anyone familiar with the “Sampson Option”?

NO ONE in the Middle East - or the rest of the World for that matter (in their right minds, that is; guess that pretty much excludes radical Islam...) - wants to see that go down!

I don’t know but we are told that there are a lot of really decent people over in Iran, and I believe it.
My sympathy and prayers are with them for what their despotic overlords may well be bringing down upon them in the name of their insane version of “religion”.

I don’t know about this website. “Semi news, semi satire” is kind of a dodge really. Either write good satire, or report the news, but this mix is neither funny nor true. So what’s the point?

"Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy. The world is looking. ... Remember I said it standing here if you don't remember anything else I said. Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.

"I can give you at least four or five scenarios from where it might originate. ... And he's gonna need help. And the kind of help he's gonna need is, he's gonna need you ... to use your influence, your influence within the community, to stand with him. Because it's not gonna be apparent initially, it's not gonna be apparent that we're right. ... Gird your loins. We're gonna win with your help, God willing, we're gonna win, but this is not gonna be an easy ride....

"This guy has it. But he's gonna need your help. Because I promise you, you all are gonna be sitting here a year from now going, 'Oh, my God, why are they there in the polls? Why is the polling so down? Why is this thing so tough?' We're gonna have to make some incredibly tough decisions in the first two years. So I'm asking you now ... be prepared to stick with us. ... There are gonna be a lot of you who want to go, 'Whoa, wait a minute, yo, whoa, whoa, I don't know about that decision.' Because if you think the decision is sound when they're made ... they're not likely to be as popular as they are sound. Because if they're popular, they're probably not sound....

"I probably shouldn't have said all this because it dawned on me that the press is here."

Satire that’s too close to the truth.
