Re: As to Ahmadinejad, he can believe and want whatever he wishes. It makes little difference

I would be inclined to agree with this if he had no nuclear capability, and never professed to want to wipe Israel off of the map. He is the Nikita Khrushchev of our time, hitting his shoe on the pedestal shouting "We will bury you".......the question is will we take him as seriously as we did 40 years ago?

We should......the question is will we?

Define an anomaly?

A small percentage of people, all people, all over the world, are insane, born insane, and will never be sane.

Some women have bad reactions to the hormones of pregnancy and post pregnancy and are temporarily insane.

But the United States nor any of its states sanctions insanity, we try to help insane people, and lock them up if they are dangerous.

So it's extremely disingenuous of you to compare what the Iranian government does to what a crazy woman does.

No, wait. I think you're onto something there.

Yes, now that I think about it, I agree with you. The government of Iran is composed of crazy people who throw babies from windows.
