I simply do not understand this seemingly earnest conviction on the part of every tin-pot tyrant drawing breath that the West in general and the U.S. in particular will not fight. Is it some sort of communicable disease?

I do have one suggested improvement over Afghanistan and Iraq - this time we won't need a trial.

"He doesn't believe we would use them. Or that Allah will protect them if we do."

That is his biggest mistake and the last one he will ever make.

They're all big and bad when they're hiding behind a podium and microphone.

I'll bet this diminutive little p*ssy would piss his pants scream like a girl at the first sight of an approaching Tomahawk or F-117A.

6 missiles can virtually wipe them out of existence. That is really hollow isn't it?

Or, things might ripen in a time frame that could provide an excellent opportunity to give this little gem a dandy field check.

Nukes have a bad reputation. I don't know why. They have only been used once in anger in the history of the planet, yet they proved extremely effective, and saved thousands of lives.

Perhaps the world would be a much safer place if people realized that nukes may actually be used in combat.

I wake every morning and turn on the news in hope we've nuked these bozos' little nuke factory.

During the last Gulf War, somebody got rich selling pictures of the Iraqi Information Minister on Cafepress.com. I think I'll fire up Photoshop and get President Almond Jihad's picture ready for a T-shirt early this time...

He thinks it is, because if he had them he'd have used them by now. And he thinks if he gets even 5 crude nukes, everybody will be so scared of him he can keep right on going until eventually the 15 minute doomsday is in his successors' hands, too. Then they will use it. That's the whole dastardly clever plan, such as it is. Its first premise is that any moralistic moron who can annihilate their enemies in 15 minutes but won't, will always cave. They read as weakness any form of self-restraint, because unrestrained and boundless cruelty is the only idea they have of strength.

Keep going, clown, and you'll find out how hollow a deluge of missiles is!

It looks like we'll eventually have to define 'hollow' for him - I'm thinking Iran may become the largest caldera in history with this idiot at the helm.
