"If enemies especially Israelis and their supporters in the United States would want to use a language of force, they should rest assured that they will receive a strong blow in the mouth"

More saber rattling from the Islamic Republic. "Iran warns of 'strong blow' if Israel attacks," by Aresu Eqbali for AFP, June 20 (thanks to JCB):

TEHRAN (AFP) - Tehran Friday warned its arch-enemy Israel of a "strong blow" if it takes forceful measures, after the US media reported military exercises by the Jewish state were a possible practice for a strike against Iran.

"If enemies especially Israelis and their supporters in the United States would want to use a language of force, they should rest assured that they will receive a strong blow in the mouth," senior cleric Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami said in his Friday prayers sermon.

Khatami, whose speech was broadcast live on state radio, stressed that the Iranian nation's mentality was "to fight foreigners."

"Given this mentality, if you make a hostile look at the Islamic Iran, you will witness such a united roar by our nation that it will definitely make you regret any vicious move forever," the conservative cleric added....

Khatami, whose speech was broadcast live on state radio, stressed that the Iranian nation's mentality was primitive, backward, savage, barbaric, and murderous.

Hey Ayatollah - you got that right!

"Given this mentality, if you make a hostile look at the Islamic Iran, you will witness such a united roar by our nation that it will definitely make you regret any vicious move forever," senior cleric Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami said in his Friday prayers sermon.

This is having the same effect as an elderly and toothless Shih Tzu attempting to savage me.

It's just sad.

It's just sad.

Not only that, pitiful and pathetic. What a bunch of losers. I would love to laugh right in the face of an Ayatollah!

This is the entirely predictable response of Iran to the earlier report about Israel's preparations for a strike. More important than what they say is now to watch what they do.

Iran likes to go on the offensive with their verbal attacks against Israel, while the Israeli plan their offensive quietly. Can you guess who actually can plan and execute the military job? you have three quesses and the first dont count.

Bring it. A whole bunch of us will be waiting for you. http://freemendo.typepad.com/

I'm shaking. If his English was any good, I'd be really scared.

I guess Iran could respond with another Military Parade.....

I would estimate that any response following our turning his country into a parking lot, that "a strong blow in the mouth", would be an accurate description of any response they might still be capable of mounting.

And what the hell kind of wording for a threat is that? They need to...oh wait...that's right. They don't wanna join this Millennium. They wanna drag us back in time to the good ole days of Mo...

And...when these creeps spout this crap, ya gotta remember...they seek death. It's their goal. Paradise and all that crap. I think that's why they keep asking for it.

Islam is a lie and truth is killing it.

"If enemies especially Israelis and their supporters in the United States would want to use a language of force, they should rest assured that they will receive a strong blow in the mouth," senior cleric Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami said in his Friday prayers sermon."

Of course never mind the continuous fact that Iran's President Amadnutjob threatens to annihilate Israel almost every week since he has taken office.

Israel should do this. They should take out all of Iran's capacity to make nuclear weapons. Plus there are many motivated people in Iran to fight for freedom. Plus the Islamic world needs for this to happen before they do something that the world will not forgive them for. Basically, they need defeat.

More of the same old, same old. "I can threaten you with annihilation, but how DARE you even THINK about defending yourself against me!"

The Muslim double standard, seen also at the UN Human Rights council.

A great many Muslims appear to feel absolutely entitled to verbally and - whenever they can - physically assault any and all kafir, always and everywhere. The verbal threats, insults and slander can be as vile and ugly as the depraved imagination can come up with. The physical assault can be anything from shoving kafir into the gutter, hitting and throwing rocks and dung, up to mass murder of unarmed kafir, shooting children in the back (Beslan), etc.

But let the kafir criticise, however mildly and reasonably, their pure and precious lordly Muslim selves; let the kafir declare that they will respond to Muslim threats or Muslim attack, let the kafir show themselves ready to act in self-defence, and the Muslims will HOWL with outrage. How DARE anyone threaten THEM. How DARE anyone hurt THEM! "You are not allowed to defend yourselves! You must lie down so I may stamp my boot on your face!"

G K Chesterton defined barbarism, real savagery, in these terms: 'the barbarian is someone who laughs when he hurts you, but howls when you hurt him'.

The Islamosphere appears to be chock full of ignorant, contemptible, supremacist barbarians, who will cheerfully and without the smallest twinge of conscience inflict mind-bending horrors of cruelty and death upon helpless unarmed non-Muslims whom they get into their clutches; yet who will scream with outrage if anyone criticises them for it, or, even worse! tries to stop them or punish them.

Sooner or later, the civilised non-Muslim world will have to kick their backsides for them, good and hard.

it seems that mud-lims(muslims) have a bad habit of opening mouth befor engaging brain the mullahs and president of iran are prime examples ,frankly i hope iran does try a attack like pearl harbor it just might wake people up

Khatami, whose speech was broadcast live on state radio, stressed that the Iranian nation's mentality was "to fight foreigners."

So why don't Iranians just STAY HOME!!!!!!
We couldn't care less what you do in Iran. Just leave the rest of us alone. Live in your own little hell hole! It's yours. Look for your missing imam.

Leave Iraq! Leave Europe!

And for God's sake, LEAVE AMERICA!

And to the young ones who look longingly at America: don't tell Americans your troubles. If you won't do something about your mullahs then JUST STAY HOME!

(sorry for the caps, I'm shouting at Iranians!)

My election year platform: transfer the entire UN establishment to TEHRAN! As president, I would not worry about addressing the UN in October because the US would be out of that sorry organization. We would reclaim whole swaths of Manhattan for the benefit of Americans. That eyesore of a tower will be leveled - the right way.

"First I'm gonna huff! Then, I'm gonna puff! Then, I'm gonna bloooooooow your house down!"


Bullshirt!

Guess they haven't got all the attention they need this week, lol. "blow to the face" yah!

The drivel that comes out of these people is unbelievable, I mean, do the regular IRanian people actually put credence into this BS?

I'm betting on Israel to give them a "body blow"
and hopefully SOON.

Oh, no! Not another "Mother of All Battles" scenario!

What you said CUBED to the THIRD POWER

I'd like everyone to read 'Their Just Human' (Het zijn net mensen) By J. Luyendijk. He states that what western Journalist publish in the Middle- East, is not correct.
What you see on television, read in newspapers, etc. Is not the full story, the background stories are never told. As in the Iraq war, Media in western world, pretty much only showed the US soldiers, their wins and THEIR story. If people would watch Al Jazeera, for example, a totally different story is shown.
Example: in the US and Europe, people saw US soldiers tearing down a statue of Saddam Hussein, while all Iraqi people where partying around the statue. People who watch Al Jazeera, Saw US soldiers tear down the statue of Saddam and -filmed from some distance- saw a small group of Iraqi people party, but most of them where just watching with a sad face. The US soldiers quickly remove a US flag, thrown over the fallen statue, after the pictures are made. Moreover, Most stone throwing and US flag burning happens when media arrives. Before that, the people are just waiting, after the shots, there just going to their wife and kids and have a nice meal.

Lots of people who are shown on western television, talking about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, Where chosen by Israeli government, Almost all press is going to a Israeli hotel, given Israeli homemade "ready to print" information about what happened. There is NO journalism that's true about the Middle-East. Stories either miss important information, or are told from a perspective that definitely is going to score points. Ratings are all that counts. So I'm not saying you should not believe BBC,CNN,New York times, Fox news, etc. But that you should look critically to media, knowing that their are more perspectives, that their is important background information not told and you are shown, what US government wants you to see, not what really happens.

That sounds like a dare, to me. Does it sound like a dare to you? Should we take 'em up on it?

If we have another 9/11 in the west we should just bomb Mecca out of existence.

I know this sounds harsh but it would fall within the rules of Islamic Jihad and so would be justified by their own rules.

I am just a Shiite from Teheran,
Kill me infidels and pray five times a day,
Beat my wife to make her see the way,
Now don't go sayin' Muslims is ornery,
Love me or I'll punch you in the mouth.

We like to hang 'em at the courthouse,
Stone adulterers just fer fun.
And fer a bad cartoon we'll shoot a gun.
Don't go sayin' nasty things 'bout Muslims.
Love me or I'll punch you in the mouth.

I am just a Shiite from Teheran,
We don't like no Zion or Crusades.
Fer suicide bombers we do like parades.
Now don't dare think Islam ain't peaceful.
Love me or I'll punch you in the mouth.

Now we're makin' lots o' nukes in Teheran,
And we don't have to even think twice,
'Cause Bush has got him Condoleeza Rice.
Now don't go 'cusin Muslims of bein' Nazis,
Love me or I'll punch you in the mouth!

Mithras:

Like the Mohammed al-Dura lie, for instance? Charles Enderlin and France2 ran with a story fed them by a Palestinian stringer; Enderlin swore the Israelis shot at Mohammed and his father for upwards of 20 minutes. Yet no bullet holes, no blood. Enderlin also swore he had shots of the boy's "death agony" but was too reticent to publish them. When the dust of the libel suit and subsequent appeal finally settled, and the raw footage was analyzed, there were no death photos; there WERE multiple shots of people staging "victim" shots: pretending to be battle casualties, then the "victims" got up and walked away.

You're absolutely right that what we "see" is not necessarily the truth. ESPECIALLY when the journalists don't take their own photos, and when they depend on partisan stringers for interpretation and analysis.

If people would watch Al Jazeera, for example, a totally different story is shown. Posted by Mithras

You're not kidding, and most of it is pure fiction! Isn't it amazing what propagandists can do with photos, film clips, and double speak?!

As for the U.S. government's role in the American news media, if you watch and read the news in the U.S., you should be well aware that they have never done the Bush administration any favors. Everything they say and print is biased AGAINST the current administration, including the deliberate release of sensitive national security intelligence data, for which the guilty parties should have been prosecuted for treason. If there are ten encouraging, optimistic, flattering stories and one incriminating or negative story, you can bet they will capitalize on the latter and ignore the former. The American news media have gone to unprecedented lengths to report only the negative aspects of the Iraq war and have largely ignored Afghanistan for the last two years.

So you're right about the biased media but you're very wrong if you believe Americans have been fed pro-Bush propaganda about Iraq and Afghanistan. I remember seeing a live broadcast of one of Saddam's statues being torn apart at the beginning of the Iraq debacle and it was not American soldiers tearing it down, it was Iraqis! If the scene was doctored in any way, it must have been staged by the most talented Hollywood stunt men, special effects artists, and cameramen, with Steven Speilberg directing. And that's not likely since Speilberg is a typical Hollywood left-wing, anti-war pacifist.

@Mithras

So do you think your POV is more correct than the other. Because if you do you are a fool for thinking that.

I have witnessed local TV news coverage were I was also at the location of the filming. Believe me the news crew got it wrong. And this was about a small event that almost no one cared about.

I have done some reading and studying like most who regularly post and we are not as naive as you concerning how the MSM reports on events related to the war. Notice I used the word war. And as you know war is deceit, so I don't believe half of what is told by the news (both sides) and question the other half.

You and your comment fall in one of two areas, one you are naive and thing that Al Jazeera has a legitimate point of view. Or, two you are a Muslim practicing taqiyya. Which one is it?

If we have another 9/11 in the west we should just bomb Mecca out of existence.

I know this sounds harsh but it would fall within the rules of Islamic Jihad and so would be justified by their own rules.

Absolutely correct. In fact there is no other way. And it is Destined .Let them fool around meanwhile. It is but natural.

Al Jazeera? For a different point of view?

Yeah. For sure.

Just like I would go to a KKK source for a different aspect of things racial... or see what the criminals have to say about the cops.

Mithras...he must be used to dealin' with amateurs.

What actually scares me, is how much liberals and guys like this sound the same.

Islam is a lie and truth is killing it.

"Khatami, whose speech was broadcast live on state radio, stressed that the Iranian nation's mentality was "to fight foreigners.""


Xenophobe.

Not harsh at all. It should be our national policy: Mecca's (and Medina's) Assured Destruction. The people might vacate the area but the Grand Mosque can't pack up and move. It will be reduced to dust.

The Saudis can be practical when they want to be. They currently derive a not insignificant sum from pilgrims making the hajj. A lot of businesses in SA will suffer the fate of the WTC. How many Muslims will make the hajj to view a hole in the ground? How many Muslims will pray five times a day toward sand?

I think Shorty may be talking about activating Hizbollah sleeper cells. Could cause chaos in western nations. Or it may work the same way it did after 9-11. Several incidents in malls or what have you. A few "hate crimes" by Americans against muslims in response and then more big bombs in Sand Land. Kind of dashed UBL's hopes but he doing okay with the economy.

There was an extended report on cable CNN about this today (Saturday). The general tone was of disapproval, that the Israelis were beginning to act aggressively again, with absolutely no provocation. To make their point about continued Israeli aggression short references were given to the 1967 war, Israel's strike into Iraq in 1981 and into Syria last year. Not mentioned were the reasons for these strikes (In 1967 Israel simply beat Egypt, which was preparing to attack, to the punch. In 1981 they destroyed Iraq's nuclear weapons development facilities at Osirik, and last year they destroyed the nuclear weapons facility that was being built by Syria with the assistance of North Korea). In the CNN report muchwas made of the fact that neither Israel nor the U.S. has made any public comment about these exercises, and no mention was made about Greek participation in the exercise.

All the stock footage that was shown of the Israeli Air Force was of F-16s carrying large bombs that had been retrofitted with the GPS guidance packages.

Suprisingly, they also included a recent clip of BO where he castigated the Iranian president for continually threatening Israel, and said that in light of these threats Israel has every right to do whatever it needs to do to defend itself. There was no comment from McCain.
