re: #59 Gus
Ahmadinejad and the Ayatollah have made their intentions clear. They want to develop a nuclear weapon. We frequently hear from leadership of Iran on official channels, the occasional cabinet member threatening the destruction of Israel.
We should take their word it.
We probably shouldn’t have helped overthrow the Iranian government in 1953.
Perhaps, but that still only goes so far. Pres. Ahmadinejad and Grand Ayatollah Khameni are the ones to blame for the current crisis, not Kermit Roosevelt Jr.
