Here’s the Wabbit
I want to be fair to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, especially now that he’s all peacelovedove, and everyone’s getting nervous about the prospect of blowing his Israel-off-the-map-wiping, Holocaust-denying, terrorism-financing, chaos-spreading, U.S. soldier-murdering ass up.
He probably doesn’t know the serial numbers of the .50 caliber Steyr-Mannlicher sniper rifles that somehow found their way from Iran to Iraq, where one of them killed an American 45 days after they were shipped from Austria.
He probably doesn’t know the serial numbers of the mortar rounds that were displayed in Baghdad the other day, and is probably not conversant in the details of how a sophisticated armor-piercing “explosively-formed projectile” works, and I’m sure he has no idea exactly how those ended up in Iraq. By which route, who handled them, that kind of thing.
A’jad’s blissful ignorance does not particularly bother me. His sudden professed interest in negotiations, lawful processes and international courts is entertaining, as are many of this murderous buffoon’s outlandish pronouncements. If and when the United States begins firing cruise missiles at Iran’s WMD sites, I highly doubt President Bush will know their serial numbers or exactly which ship fired which missile. When Apache attack helicopters, F-16s and American and Iraqi boots on the ground finally shut down the Iran-Iraq border, I highly doubt our president will know the serial numbers of the Hellfires and the 25mm Bushmasters and the M-4s, or the precise routes by which they arrived their, or the names of those pulling the triggers. But the source of those Tomahawks, Hellfires, HEAT rounds and .556 rounds will be apparent. I hope one of them has Ahmadinejad’s name on it. I doubt that will happen, but that would be very entertaining. More laughs than an Ahmadinejad interview.
Here are some people who are going to need a big Bugs Bunny-style “Here’s the Wabbit” sign point at A’jad before they’ll be ready to pull any triggers.
Powerline with a Pillar of Unwisdom.
Captain’s Quarters: Iranian smoking guns found … literally.
Blue Crab wnats to know who’s side the Austrians are on, anyway.
Judith Klinghoffer sees this EU document as the beginning of a Euro shrug on Iran. But I take heart from the Financial Times’ conclusion:
The downbeat conclusions of the “reflection paper” – seen by the Financial Times – are certain to be seized on by advocates of military action, who fear that Iran will be able to produce enough fissile material for a bomb over the next two to three years.
Works for me.

Hm. North Korea wanting to make a deal. Iran suddenly wanting to talk. They must think Bush is more serious about war than they originally believed.

A’jad had said before that Bush is an American fluke (not the fish) and that all they have to do is wait him out. I sincerely hope that Bush does something before he leaves, because going by what we’ve seen from Dems and Reps alike, A’Jad’s thinking is correct, and all he has to do if wait out the Bush administration.
Some obnoxious poll I read this morning said that only 22% of the American people think that Iran is a threat.

Ignoring what you do not want to hear
Huffington Post asks, who will stop an attack on Iran…. I ask them: Why do you not ask, who will stop Iran from providing weapons that are KILLING OUR SOLDIERS??????
