Ahmadinejad to tour Latin America. When he gets here, arrest him.

Do you need me to spell out the reasons why? How many American's died trying to rescue the Iranian held hostages? Sounds like at least a manslaughter charge. I know it is much more fun spending $400 billion to remove a dictator like Saddam, but maybe if we had a wise master in the White House, one with some stones, he would snatch this little creep and do something real smart for a change. It would be a lesson to our new crop of Fidel wunnabees. I have to take a pill for my BDS.

Iran's Ahmadinejad to tour Latin America

Jan 10 3:42 AM US/Eastern Breitbart

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is to kick off a four-day tour Saturday to Ecuador, Nicaragua and Venezuela, whose leaders share his defiance towards the United States, media said.
"Ahmadinejad will start his visit with a trip to Venezuela to hold official talks with his counterpart President Hugo Chavez," the Kayhan newspaper quoted a presidential statement as saying.

The Iranian president has maintained a close relationship with his fiery Venezuelan counterpart, who has given his unequivocal support to Iran's nuclear programme and its hostility towards the United States.

Ahmadinejad visited Venezuela last September while Chavez has made numerous trips to the Islamic republic.

After his one day visit to Caracas, Ahmadinejad is scheduled to head to Managua to hold talks with the Nicaraguan president elect and former US foe Daniel Ortega.

According to the report, the Iranian president will on Monday take part in the swearing-in ceremony of the Ecuador's new president Rafael Correa, who won his country's presidential election last November.

Correa has vowed to seek stronger ties with Venezuela, oppose a free-trade deal with the United States, and not renew the lease for a US military air base on Ecuador's Pacific Coast.

Ahmadinejad will also hold meetings with other South American presidents including Bolivia's Evo Morales, before wrapping up his tour on Tuesday, the report added.

  1. If we cannot look after our own interests in Latin America, please spare me the bullshit about what we should do in Iran. This is a blessing from somewhere, a gift for the plucking.

  2. Bagging Ineedanewjob would do about as much good as the Iranian mullah's capturing Tony Snow, and for the same reason. You're watching the red cape and not paying attention to the steel in the matador's other hand.

  4. Hi 2164th. (I think what I want to do is just comment without trying to maintain a blog.) Anyway, some countries have presidents who jack their jaws but have no real power. Iran and Israel are two examples, and the loony left would even say that about our country. In the case of Israel, it is the prime minister who holds all the cards. In Iran it's the Ayatollahs. And President Ineedanewjob gave a speech at the UN, if he's such a hot potato how come we didn't bag him at that time when he was on our soil, why wait until he comes to another country in the same hemisphere?

  8. Today our Historic president will make a Historic speech in which he will announce the Historic surge of troops which History tells us was part and parcel of every pre-purple-thumbed election clampdown in the last three years.

  11. Well Bush has ignored his generals, his father, The Baker commission, and it seems that at least a dozen Republicans are ready to bail. There is not one responsible military person that has come forward and said the military is in better shape today than it was six years ago.

    Does he know something many of us have missed or is he incapable of admitting a mistake?

  12. The future at this moment is in the hands of Tehran and An Najaf. This is the point at which the degree of control the Iranians have over the Iraqi Shiite leadership will become clear. The Iranians are worried with the trends that have emerged over the past month. Their best lever is in Iraq. The Iraqi Shia are in danger of being trapped between Washington and Tehran. Therefore there are two questions: First, will the Iranians become more aggressive, abandoning their traditional caution? Second, can they get the Iraqi Shiite leaders to play their game, or will the old rift between Qom and An Najaf (the Iranian and Iraqi Shiite holy cities) emerge once again as the Shia scramble to get back into the American game.

  13. Meanwhile on the Peninsula....
    US sends stealth fighter planes to South Korea

    The United States is deploying a squadron of F-117As to South Korea, a US military spokesman said on Wednesday, amid speculation that North Korea may be ready to test a second nuclear device.

    The US is sending 15 to 20 of its Nighthawks to South Korea, as part of a "routine deployment," he said.

    The US has sent the radar-evading fighters regularly to South Korea for stays of a few months over the past few years. North Korea has criticised previous deployments as preparations for invasion and nuclear war.

  14. bobalharb,

    "I look forward to pursuing a progressive agenda in the committee, including the restoration of American citizen's civil liberties that have come under increasing attack over the past six years," said Ellison, the first Muslim member of Congress.

    Ellison said this week he'd like to see a ban on racial profiling, an issue that could come up in the Judiciary Committee.

    I was not aware that Islam is a race.

  15. bobalharb said, "Pelosi put that muslim on the Judiciary Committee. Great, just great, a man whose religion seeks to overthrow the constitution, and put the women back in their place."

    Wow, bobalharb, my own religion says the same thing:

    1 Timothy 2:[12] But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

  16. Bobalharb, I was trying to say that religions don't oppress people, people oppress people in the name of religion. The gentleman from Minnesota is just as American as the people we evacuated from Bainbridge Island and sent to internment camps during the Big One. Don't buy into this neo-50's Enemy Within hysteria.

  24. re: enemy within

    I'll be curious to learn the number of American and British passports found with dead jihadis in Somalia. Sad to say some American and British fighters have been captured. What do we do? What do we do?

    less opportunistic said, "And yet you think we torture innocent jihadist captives."

    Maybe they're innocent, and maybe they're not. Maybe they're jihadist, and maybe not. But it should give anyone pause to consider that we used to be the Country That Does Not Torture People.

    We used to be a country that publicly decried torture. We still do.

  26. One substantive point, two-thirds of the "new" Iraqi troops in Baghdad will be Kurdish Pesh Merga and their objective is to destroy the Shiite militias. The Pesh Merga are a well armed and trained fighting force?

    From the House Armed Services Committee; NEW WAY FORWARD FOR VICTORY IN IRAQ:
    ...Deploy 3 additional Iraqi brigades (2 Kurdish brigades, 1 Shi’a brigade) to Baghdad, bringing the total number of Iraqi battalions in Baghdad from approximately 33 to approximately 42. One brigade will be in place by February 1, 2007, and the 2 additional brigades will be deployed by February 15, 2007.

    From Yahoo News; Iraq PM tells Shiite militias to give up:
    Iraq's prime minister has told Shiite militiamen to surrender their arms or face an all-out assault by U.S.-backed Iraqi forces, senior Iraqi officials said Wednesday, as President Bush said he will commit an additional 21,500 American combat troops to the war.

    An Iraqi general, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to disclose details of the plan, said a mainly Kurdish force would be sent into the Sadr City slum in northeast Baghdad, which serves as headquarters of the Mahdi Army.

    The general said Kurds, who are Sunni but not Arab, were being used against the Shiite militia because soldiers from other Iraqi units were likely to refuse to fight fellow Shiites.
