Iranians aren't Arabs Yes I know. What's the point ? The point is that Arabs have been putting out "death to Israel" propaganda for 50+ years, and we know how effective that's been. Iran is a completely different culture, with a completely different history. Their rhetoric is not the same as the Arab rhetoric we're accustomed to.

Mr. Bush is on a mission from God also..

Perhaps you're more in tune with news from the U.S. As such, maybe I'm missing something -- I don't understand your point here. I haven't heard GWB say that Islam should be wiped from the face of the earth. I have read that the President of Iran has said that Israel should be wiped from the face of the earth.

IMHO, GWB is trying to be President of the United States, and is trying, in his own inept way, to keep the U.S. safe. The U.S. hasn't nuked anyone outside of a state of war, as surely as they may have been tempted. They had a nuclear monolopoly for a while, and didn't use it, against a power, the USSR, that was sworn for their downfall.

I'm clearly missing your point when you allude to a religious motivation from the U.S. administration. The U.S. has said that they don't plan to nuke Iran. Iran has said they'll do whatever they can to destroy Israel. And Iran is building nukes. So remind me how GWB is the evil here?
