For the U.S. and world: A plan for Iran

Jay Ambrose has a good point: "Here's what we should do if we want Israel destroyed, if we want to risk another full-blown world war and if we want the United States put in desperate peril: Let's allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons ..."

Amadinejad's delusion of bringing forth the Mohammedan 12th Imam or Mahdi (or whatever they are calling this pseudo-messiah) by unleashing international chaos should get every Western mind out its drunken stupor. Do not make the same mistake that Appeasement minded Chamberlain made concerning Adolf Hitler. Chamberlain thought he had brought "peace in our time" when he handed Czechlosvakia and Austria over to the Jewish hating Nazi. Uncle Adolf went on to try to establish a Western Third Reich with the Arian nation racial superiority as his goal.

Have I ever mentioned that Uncle Adolf is favorite reading among present day Islamofascists? Baathist Syria and former Baathist Iraq are set up on a Nazi system of government, which includes cultifying a central leader. In Iraq that was Hussein, in Syria it is Assad.

Enought ranting from, read Jay Ambrose's article:

For the U.S. and world: A plan for Iran
Tuesday, January 17, 2006
The Washington Examiner

Here's what we should do if we want Israel destroyed, if we want to risk another full-blown world war and if we want the United States put in desperate peril: Let's allow Iran to develop nuclear weapons while Europe does its usual dithering dance around reality, and let's rule out a military strike as absolutely unacceptable.

You would have to be in a coma not to know what Iran is up to. The Western world has bent over backward to offer Iran the means of building nuclear power plants without the simultaneous means of building the ultimate weapon of mass destruction, but, no, Iran wants none of that. It wants nuclear materials on its terms, which is to say, it wants the ability to slaughter millions. And it has the crackpots in power to carry out the mission.

The chief crackpot is the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who might be mistaken for a reincarnated Adolf Hitler, given his anger, his anti-Semitism, his nationalist ambitions and fascistic fanaticism. There was no Holocaust, he says. Israel should be "wiped off the map," he adds. This man and his cohorts mean to do evil.

To its credit, Europe appears to know as much, but to its discredit, it appears to lack the will or the backbone to stand in the way. If occasionally, Europe talks tough and seems to mean what it says, wait a day or two and watch while its tail is once more tucked between its legs. Is Iran displeased with the European stance? "Oh, dear, oh dear," the diplomats in effect say, "we must back up and be civilized, even if civilization is thus endangered."

No one is saying that the United States should start making plans for an invasion. But all responsible nations should rise as one and make it absolutely clear to Iran that it will either abide by the international treaty on nuclear non-proliferation or be cut off from further economic development - no ifs, maybes or buts.

The democratic-minded majority in Iran should be encouraged and supported in a wide variety of ways to overthrow the tyrants who are ruining their lives through an unspeakable theocracy. The United States should let it be known in no uncertain terms that if a terrorist-supporting, anti-U.S. Iran slips these nooses and proceeds with its plans, we will bomb any weapon-making facilities to smithereens. And if we have to, the United States should follow through and not take the coward's way out by figuring that Israel should do this job for us.

Maybe the United States does not have the heart for this. The war in Iraq has been unexpectedly difficult and the critics within and outside the country have been vociferous. Would the world be with us? Much of it would not be. It would be no easy matter to unify our own citizenry around the cause, owing in part to the administration's own clumsiness in explaining itself on virtually any issue. But as Harvard professor Niall Ferguson has written, the cost of acting would be far less than a failure to act.Perhaps you pooh-pooh the cost. The world has done that before, Ferguson notes in comparing the present situation with the hope among many before World War II that the problem of Nazi Germany might just go away if left alone. It did not, of course, and if history is any guide at all, neither will the problem of Iran.
