Persian Puffery

Iran has declared that Israel’s days are numbered. At a symposium to discuss how the holocaust is a myth, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has given the following statement: "Thanks to people's wishes and God's will the trend for the existence of the Zionist regime is downwards and this is what God has promised and what all nations want." He also said, "Just as the Soviet Union was wiped out and today does not exist, so will the Zionist regime soon be wiped out." I find it so comforting that an Islamic extremist would feel so empowered to speak on my behalf.

That this conference is being held at all is deeply disturbing. Someone must be seriously delusional or just plain brainwashed to announce that the holocaust never happened. The evidence is overwhelming that the Nazi’s created death camps and herded any that did not meet their standards into them. Unfortunately, the Jews were their primary target. The graves, pictures, records, and eye witness accounts are more than ample to convince even the most jaded eye. But I guess hatred is blind.

His statement concerning the Soviet Union is laughable. It was a hodgepodge of loosely held together states with only a communist dictator to enforce the unity. Without the power to back up the threats, it very quickly came unraveled. Israel has been in existence on and off for several thousand years. They have been conquered and returned. They have been enslaved and returned. The Jewish homeland is there to stay. If the Iranians think that God has forsaken his chosen people, they must not understand what a covenant is. God never said it would be easy but he did promise that his chosen people would have a homeland.

So as the conference on how to wipe out Israel continues in Iran, we can look on with contempt and pity at the ignorance being forced on an entire nation. Fortunately they cannot enforce their wishes. Israel is a miniature superpower in the region. Armed with American technical know how and the guts shown in their previous conflicts, I have no doubt that Iran would be crying uncle in a New York minute. It is nice that Sean Combs gave up his Puff designation as it fits perfectly with its new owner; Puff Mahmoud.
