Bonzo Goes To Britain

Our sincere friendly Islamic jihadists from the country formerly known as Persia, (Iran for those who are geographically challenged) have once again delved into the tried and true practice of hostage taking. 15 British military personnel have been taken captive by the Iranian Navy in Iraqi territory. The Iranian stance is that they were in their countries territory but since their maps are all dated prior to the late Shah of Iran’s departure, it is no wonder they don’t know where they are. Someone get these folks a membership to AAA or show them how to find Mapquest on the internet. Oh, yea, they would have to have the internet.

I believe that Americans had a similar issue during the administration of President Jimmy Carter. Yes, the gentleman peanut farmer from Georgia was blindsided by the return of the Ayatollah Komeni and the formation of his fundamentalist Islamic theocracy. It did not involve raising taxes to cover the double digit stagflation rate so Carter was not thinking about foreign policy. Once the Ayatollah was firmly entrenched, he grew a pair and attacked the US Embassy, taking hostages and basically dictating to the US how to conduct foreign policy. Yea, like that’s gonna happen. Of course, Carter did what every peace loving roll over and take it liberal does; nothing. There were intense negotiations followed by saber rattling from Iran. This was followed by intense negotiations and American flag burning in Iran. Then we had another round of intense negotiations followed by more burning and rattling. All the time, America looked like a bumbling idiot who cannot manage their affairs. Well, at that time we were. That changed when someone who understands how to stand up to a bully took office.

When Ronald Reagan was elected President, the picture changed. He was a man of action who understood that you cannot negotiate with the dog to convince the fleas to leave. The dog puts on the show of scratching and shaking which does nothing to solve the problem. You have to take some action to assist the dog in getting rid of the pests. Nothing short of eradication of the fleas will stop the dog from scratching. This is where the flea analogy breaks down because they live up to their place in nature and once through the flea dip, they die. The Iranian government does not grasp how to accomplish their goals. They have run out of fabrications about their peaceful intentions and once again resorted to abducting other nation’s citizens in an attempt to get their way. Holding their breath just didn’t work. It’s too late to ask Uncle Ronny for his assistance. Maybe someone in Britain will step up to the plate and help the terrorist government of Persia to become more like a flea.
