So the conservative media called him a whackjob. I am impressed.
Can I have something beyond that, please?


A point I am continuously trying to make is: No you can't!
The Liberal media will not report information detrimental to their political allies. You will only get criticism from the opposite political parties media sources.

The problem with this solution is that the people that dont mind themselves getting blown up for Allah, also dont mind if ALL of them get blown up for Allah.
So nope, not working.
Those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it.
I do study the history. I did talk to people that lived through it first hand, on both sides.
But, I do not necessarily share your understanding of history.
There is a big difference. I dont want to discuss this anymore than this. It leads to nowhere.

I was LOOKING for an opening for this story.


Ahmadinejad Reportedly Claims U.S. is Blocking Return of Mankind's Savior

“We have documented proof that they believe that a descendant of the prophet of Islam will raise in these parts and he will dry the roots of all injustice in the world,” Ahmadinejad said during a speech on Monday, according to Al Arabiya. "They have devised all these plans to prevent the coming of the Hidden Imam because they know that the Iranian nation is the one that will prepare the grounds for his coming and will be the supporters of his rule," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying.

Religious fanatics don't mind being Nuked, as long as they can Nuke first. For those of you who do not know what he's talking about, he's talking about the Muslim version of the Apocalypse. You know, Ragnarok!

The only people crazier than the Religious fanatics are the people who think you can trust them with Nukes.

Funny thing is, from what I understand his parents were jews.
Kinda strange that a man like this came out of it.
It also makes claims of him being an antisemite absurd, however (he would have to hate himself, kinda weird).
I would say he is probably best described as an antizionist. He is defending the palestinians rather frequently in his speeches. As most people know palestinians like jews are also semites.

In any case, he is a pretty crazy dude. Probably among the most dangerous men in the world right now.

His mother is a Seyyede, a direct bloodline descendant of Muhammad.

So, no.

Diogenes do you have much first hand experience with middle easterners, arabs or persians, or maghrebans?

I saw that story. I also saw a followup story by a more knowledgeable scholar that blew it out of the water.

I have some, which is to say not a lot, but probably more than average. I've met and spoken with people from all over the world. You meet all sorts of people when you live next to a large military base.

I guess the MI6 thought it was plausible:

But then of course, something like this cant possibly be true, alright.
I have to admit though that some of this article is bullshit.
Moslems do get circumcised just like jews do (at least many of them do).

OMG! You read WND ? I know plenty of conservatives that consider it to be the "National Enquirer" of conservative web sites. I will grant you that like the National Enquirer, WND can sometimes find some interesting scoops, but also like the National Enquirer, they carry stories that are just too ridiculous to be credible. Entertaining ? Yes. Credible ? Not so much. Okay, maybe sometimes.

Actually I read this elsewhere. I could not produce the original source, so I quickly did a Google search and this came up.
I even mentioned myself that the article was pretty badly recherched. This newspaper was not the only one though.
It does not really matter anyway. The guys is an ass one way or the other ;)

It was claimed here: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad revealed to have Jewish past

and refuted here: Ahmadinejad has no Jewish roots.
