Ever hear of "cherry picking"?

"this regime that is occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time."


Oohh this is booga booga, scary stuff...


I've also heard that taken in context, statements like this from Ahmadinejad are usually in response to... prefaced by..." if Israeli zionist regime keeps making these statements that they are going to attack us".... then .... "this regime that is occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time." Although this direct quote isn't the best example as it was a quote from an early time period and meant to be prophetic in nature.

But in other instances... the media will leave off that first part and get creative with the translation..."Wipe"..."Israel(instead of regime)"..."face of the Map"...etc, etc...

So in a sense it's a response to Likudite threats, and then it's basically... "he's such a Madman".............. for responding to another entity directly threatening his and his countrymen's existence?

Only they'll leave that last context out as well.

How dare he, What a loon!

Fact: It is Ahmadinejad not Israel or Bushco that wants to open up a dialog of understanding...and backed it up by putting it in writing and released it to the world.

Fact: It is China who's declared that they are going to take Taiwan,
and if there's any interference, They have 200 long range Nuclear tipped ICBMs targeting major American cities and some medium to minor ones too.

Fact: Israeli scholars have come forth and disclosed that some of their nukes target European cities.

Fact: The world's a dangerous place

Bombing and killing everything somebody else tells you to, is not a wise course of action.
