No, it's not the Onion ~ rather, life in the Middle East, particularly in the topmost levels, is based on a misreading of Beavis and Butthead.

These people are emphatically that stupid.

I was in London the day of the failed bus bombings, a couple of weeks after the unfailed ones, a couple of years ago now. I got to see the British media reaction to an attempt to murder rush hour commoners on the streets of London. They had a lead story each hour on what Scotland Yard was doing about the actual case, that took about 90 seconds. The rest of each half hour of news was wall to wall Mullahs lecturing Londoners on how it was all their fault and also how Islam wasn't terrorism.

I swear I am not making this up.

The same trip, I had dinner with a fellow who works in British intelligence and his wife. I told him flat out that Iran was going to get nuclear weapons and the world was going to do nothing and watch. He said that wouldn't happen because it would be bad, that Americans didn't understand these things, that they'd just do some deal and buy it off. His wife was nose in the air superior about the lack of nationalism in Britain, compared to those cowboy Americans. We are talking senior civil servants with intel responsibilities, not reporters. At one point the man described the US negotiating tactic with Iran as "do what I say or the teddy bear gets it". He seemed to think the whole thing was a negotiating ploy aimed at oil concessions on favorable terms.

I swear I am not making that up, either.

They are mindless conceited idiots, to the bottom of their quivering boots.
