3. The President of Iran is saying those things about Israel and the bomb to get President Bush to attack Iran. He (the Iranian president) doesn't care about his life or the lives of Iranians - he cares about the after-life.

It's interesting, the rest of his screed was patently ridiculous, but this echoes something that I've seen in several articles on this very site. Perhaps we should pay attention to this bit of Muslim "word on the street."

Thanks for posting this, btw. Informative though a little scary.

I've been asking "what the hell does this guy want?" Does he want a war? If wanted to develop the bomb and drop it on Israel wouldn't he do it quietly? Does he understand he is leaving us with very few choices and he is not likely to survive any of them?

It is interesting that this provides a possible motive.
