Iranian president lauds suicide bombers as invincible
ynet news ^ | April 1 2007 | Dudi Cohen

Posted on 04/01/2007 2:00:58 AM PDT by jmc1969

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad praised his country's ability to recruit "hundreds of suicide bombers a day," saying "suicide is an invincible weapon."

Ahmadinejad made the comments during a visit to a site south Iran used to prepare suicide bombers during the Iraq-Iran war, Iranian state television reported.

He praised Hizbullah fighters for their suicidal spirit during last summer's confrontation with Israel.

"Suicide bombers in this land showed us the way, and they enlighten our future," he said.

The Iranian president said the will to commit suicide was "one of the best ways of life."

Don't dismiss him. He's correct in a strictly military strategy assessment of the current war. We can have the largest arsenal on Earth and it provides no defense against a suicide bomber. Our only military option is to round up everyone who is affiliated in some way with the movement - that is to say, any Moslem anywhere - and kill them... which is antogonistic to our current values, although given extreme circumstances, we could do it in the same way that we carpet bombed Germany and Japan. It's a nightmare that reminds me of the "one-third" of the Earth's people killed in the Revelation. Kill or be killed. And if we allow ourselves to be killed, humanity sinks into another dark age.

That's one hell of a way to start your Sunday morning.

This may have been encouragement to his evil weaponry in Iraq.

It'll be interesting to see if the NYT deigns to mention his explicit promotion of suicide bombers. There's an obvious application to Israel, not to mention the whole world.

"Germany did not fall because of us being nice, we had to bomb it to dust, break the will to be a combative entity."

I'm afraid you are correct. Bush tried to fight a "nice" war in Iraq, and there is no such thing as a nice war. The maddening thing is, world opinion is against us despite the fact that our rules of engagement have been so tame. Meanwhile, the insurgents violate every canon of warfare with impunity, on a dialy basis - targeting civilians, setting consecutively timed bombs to kill rescue workers responding to an initial attack, wearing false uniforms, wearing no uniforms, hiding weapons in civilian areas, masquerading as medical personnel - and the world yawns. The insurgents can act with impunity as far as world opinion is concerned, can do anything at all without suffering the slightest condemnation.
