LOOOL SONNED

and if you don't click the link it is about more than their shitty photoshop. Also has funny photo.

Is there anything that can't be improved by photoshopping in a humorous picture of a cat? I think not.

Pizza Hut is like that ultra-hardcore gagging porn -- once in a long while you think you want it but then you remember again how repulsive it is

The Case For Regime Change in Iran
Go Big -- Then Go Home
By Jamie M. Fly and Gary Schmitt
January 17, 2012

smh

can't even bear to read that, or really even talk to anyone who would think that invading iran is a good idea

Schmitt's bio says he works at that right-wing thinktank, the American Enterprise Institute.

Ayatollah Khamenei said that Iran “had its own tools” to respond to such threats and that it would use them “if necessary,” the semiofficial Mehr news agency reported.

“The threat of war would disfavor the United States itself,” he said, adding that war with Iran “would be 10 times worse for the interests of the United States” than it would be for Iran, he said.

“Americans say all options are on the table, even the option of military strike,” he said, according to a Reuters translation of his televised remarks. “Such threats show that they have no sufficient discourse against Iran’s logic and discourse.”

No sufficient discourse against Iran's logic and discourse.

is this a good time for a patriotic, non-islamic iranian-american to apply for a job with the us intelligence community? would that be a power move?

Zoroastrian?

Yeah the "Iran Al-Qaeda Terror Plot" headlines of late have been giving me the queasy feeling of becoming aware that I'm old enough to have heard this one before and yet it will probably work again.

baha'i

i'm going to answer my own q by saying i'm pretty sure getting a job w/ in the intelligence community would require moving to some godawful place (ie outside california) but maybe somebody (tombot?) knows more about this than i do?

How's your Farsi?

Virginia?

farsi is fluent but i am illiterate

I'd rather see better translations in the news media. In the intelligence community your work will likely be ignored if you don't provide the politically approved translation.

oh hell yeah. how are you with battery cables?

battery cables??

ABC News was particularly disgusting yesterday: Martha Raddatz on a warship in the Strait of Hormuz aiming for that warmonger verite.

CNN drumbeat by Pentagon 'reporter' Chris Lawrence:

"Iran already has a missile that could reach the U.S. if it could put it on a ship and move it to within 600 miles of the American coastline."

http://www.salon.com/2012/07/16/cnn_on_the_iran_threat/

and move it to within 600 miles of the American coastline.

Still more afraid of a suitcase bomb than this scenario.

It's amazing how the range of Iran's missiles adjusts according to how badly we want to attack them.

THE MISSILES ARE COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE.

Oh wait I didn't even read that link, shit is pretty lol

i'm in the UK & i have a rock that could burrow a metre deep down into antarctic snow so long as someone rows me to the edge of antarctic water so i can throw it

Anyone know what Bulgaria is? A friend of mine is there and was close to being blown to shreds in a tour bus. Netanyahu blames Iran. Is this serious or just SOP for the area?

Bulgaria is a country in central europe iirc

Yes, yes. It appears to be near Albania, ffs. It sounds so old-timey.

it seems like a pretty random place to stage a terrorist attack, I'm not sure what to make of it. Netty blames Iran for everything fwiw.

This kind of thing is completely unheard of in Bulgaria, as far as i know. The Black Sea resorts are super-popular with Israeli tourists.

suspect sure doesn't look Iranian to me but what do I know

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Monday he was ready to be the first human sent into orbit by Iran's fledgling space program, Iranian media reported.

The launch added to Western concerns about Iran's space program because the same rocket technology could potentially be used to deliver a nuclear warhead on a ballistic missile. "I am ready to be the first human to be sent to space by Iranian scientists," Ahmadinejad said on Monday, on the sidelines of an exhibition of space achievements in Tehran, according to the Mehr news agency. "Sending living things into space is the result of Iranian efforts and the dedication of thousands of Iranian scientists."

I think we should encourage this.
