Ahmadinejad's version of Dream:


I want to rule the world today
America, just go away,
Whenever I try, you punch me in the eye,
so I dream.

When I think of the USA
I want it to go, go away,
O Mahdi come quick before I get sick
from my dream.

O can't you hear me cry,
Atomically I try
to dominate the Middle East
Only trouble Is
Gee Whiz,
The Israelis won't give me no peace


Israel stands in my way,
O Mahdi come quick, let be today,
Up from your well, so I can ring the bell
on my dream.

O can't you hear me cry,
Atomically I try
to dominate the Middle East
Only trouble Is
Gee Whiz,
The Israelis won't give me no peace

I'm with you on that. The UN is just a playground for despots to try to force their twisted views on the rest of the world.

"too bad I missed it - I'm sure they will reshow it"

Speaking of 'reshowing'......has anyone else noticed the sudden onslaught of commercials soliciting funds for Israel? There are several, all depicting Israeli women (assuming mothers/wives), sobbing incessantly while the narrator asks for donations?

They are sponsored by a jewish/christian organization.

Did you ever hear whether or not there was proof that he was one of the hostage holders? It seems to me that if there was proof, we could have arrested him when he went to the UN...like when he deplaned or something. He never should have been allowed on US soil.

This moment of stupidity brought to you by Totalitatians for Cultural Suicide - the Ticks on the Body Politic

Another example of cultural suicide. Talking to people like these is just another way to get killed.

"We got very close to an agreement in the 90's." Yeah, whatever you say, Waxley. Always close, but never happens...and never will. Now shut up!
