Kharnival of the Humiliations
Nuclear surprise! Coming to a mullocracy near you. April 9.
“Bouyant Teheran warns of further kidnappings.” Hey, go with what works.
Deafening silence suggests being mean to people isn’t torture after all. Hold on, here’s someone talking about torture! AP on US “torture” of hapless Iranian terrormonger.
Iranian Parliament Speaker: Brit sailor press conference was worthless theater! He’d know.
More backstory, of which there is much in this sordid tale. Taheri on Ahmadinejad’s hostage crisis as a smokescreen for a crackdown on dissidents.
Heads up Blair, Bush, Maliki, whoever was responsible for letting that “diplomat” go … it only encourages them when you do that: Karzai says kidnapping deal “will not be repeated.”
Wrethcard takes a look at how Iran’s other man in Iraq has responded favorably every time the kid gloves come off. So its no surprise he’s calling for more attacks in Iraq now? The boy knows blood when he smells it.
Dean Barnett wants to know when “Let’s Roll” became ”Fighting back was not an option.” Vid Michelle dubs “cringeworthy” here.
It wasn’t so much as seizure of sailors as it was a seizure of headlines, Noonan says. That’ll change when the mad mullahs get their nuke.
Steyn: would have been fun to see what would happen if Iran had seized 15 football yobs instead of 15 swabs. Powerline notes a ‘bit of a comedown from ‘blood, sweat and tears’” as the swabs launch a frontal assault on the checkbook press. Riehl calls in a British bellwether.
Here’s a Benghazi bellwether: Four years ago, Moammar was all about sucking up to us. Now, MEMRI reports, he’s sucking up to Iran. Though when you read this, he’s all over the place. North Africa is Shiite, and Moammar wants a Second Fatimid Empire. Sounds like he wants to run it. CTB sees a(nother) Khaddafy … Gaddafi … whatever … bid for pan-Muslim leadership.
Kamenei says Muslim unity vs west most urgent need. I wonder who’s supposed to head that? I nominate Ghaddafy … Q’adafi … whatever … for supreme Muslim nutjob!
Or Chomsky, always astonishing in defence of terrorism, tyrany. Gateway roundsup leftie mullahmania.
Surrendercrats cede fight on Iran-no-go provision.
Yanks offered to cowboy up, Brits insisted on understatement. Let’s hear it for giving in to terrorists!
Iran actually believed Good Friday attack rumors. Not sure why.
Mullah slams western civilization, praises ancient wisdom of the east, in a suckup to polytheist India, which apparently shares a philosophical underpinning with crazy radical Islamist Iran.
Housecleaning Islamism downunder, cat-meat Mufti feels some heat.
Bloodthirsty Lib celebrates diversity.
Glimmer of light on the left. But you’ll need to push that door open if you want to get through.

Sounds like it’s time to start shooting any Iranians found illegally anywhere inside Iraq. Without warning.

Iran Warns of More Kidnappings
Hey, they’ve gotten everything they wanted and more out of doing it already, why not continue?

It’s deja vu all over again. When, in the last 38 years, has kidnapping not worked for Iran?

Shorter JeffS: “It would be great if America would commit more war crimes.”

“Duh!”

There is a splendid photo of Pelosi, a closeup portrait, with staring eyes and pleased little grin, over at National Review, that is a goldmine for the Republican campaign. Also, it should be blown up into a large placard, and placed alongside Bush when he makes speeches about Iraq.
