Note that Dr. Hassan Abbasi is not some nut raving on the streetcorner. He is an Iranian government official. This is now the third country whose demise Iran apparently has on its agenda. And the UN has done less than nothing. 1938 Alert from the TimesOnline, with thanks to JE:
IRAN has formed battalions of suicide bombers to strike at British and American targets if the nation’s nuclear sites are attacked. According to Iranian officials, 40,000 trained suicide bombers are ready for action.The main force, named the Special Unit of Martyr Seekers in the Revolutionary Guards, was first seen last month when members marched in a military parade, dressed in olive-green uniforms with explosive packs around their waists and detonators held high.
Dr Hassan Abbasi, head of the Centre for Doctrinal Strategic Studies in the Revolutionary Guards, said in a speech that 29 western targets had been identified: “We are ready to attack American and British sensitive points if they attack Iran’s nuclear facilities.” He added that some of them were “quite close” to the Iranian border in Iraq.
In a tape recording heard by The Sunday Times, Abbasi warned the would-be martyrs to “pay close attention to wily England” and vowed that “Britain’s demise is on our agenda”.

So are the British authorities immediately refusing entry to Iranians - or muslims in general? Are they rounding up suspicious muslims to be deported? If not, to whom do the next victims to be mass murdered file their lawsuits for gross incompetance and negligence? I propose that if Western Governments refuse to take care to protect their citisens from muslim enemies, the citisens will be forced to take their protection into their own hands.

if Western Governments refuse to take care to protect
well said myiironu, that is why we cannot trust any government to take care of ourselves. it will take an attack by iranian thugs for the governments to protect their citizens. and the US with its constitution of allowing citizen the "right to bare arms" is the most important one to have. being Cdn l have to go through more hoops to own my guns. to arm yourself for your own protection!

I'm a British citizen and will now be vigilant for any persons of middle eastern appearance dressed in a drab olive-green uniform with explosives tied around their waist, shouting allah akbah and sweating profusely. If only I had more to go on.

Ahmadinejad and Co. are the ultimate suicide bombers. If their threats work(they will not)then we shall one day hear threats to launch nuclear tipped ICBMs at Isreal or Europe unless thus-and-such is done according to the commands of the fanatics in Terhan. This monster must be killed in its cradle. The threats heard from Ahmadinejad and Co. are mild compared to what is down the road unless that they taken at their word. This is not street theater. They mean exactly what they say.

Blair & Jack (Chamberlain) Straw are the ultimate suicide bombers.
Still waiting for "5.000 clerics to be deported..."

TONY Blair has told George Bush that Britain cannot offer military support to any strike on Iran, regardless of whether the move wins the backing of the international community, government sources claimed yesterday.
http://news.scotsman.com/international.cfm?id=577092006
Something is very wrong with this picture!
Straw and Blair are obviously scared of something or at least are telegraphing that message to Iran.
This is not looking good.

This makes perfect sense. In all Muslim countries, conspiracy theories abound, for the the habit of skeptical weighing of evidence is discouraged everywhere in Islam. In Iran, it takes the form of viewing not the United States nor Israel -- Great Satan and Little Satan -- as the worst enemies of Iran, but rather Great Britain. It was the Anglo-American Oil Company that helped persuade the Americans to finally come its rescue by organizing the coup against Mossadegh, and even before that, all of Iran's woes were attributed to foreign -- that is, British -- intervention. No amount of appeasement by the terminally confused Jack Straw or the rest of the Foreign Office will ever convince most Iranians otherwise. For many Iranians , the Americans are simply too dumb, and it must, therefore, be the British pulling the strings.
Meanwhile, the Americans must now be wondering: do we keep training that "Iraqi" army, for that training has been mainly of the Shi'a (it it is they who will keep showing up, some of them even perhaps pretendingthat they are Sunnis, so that the American officers will be satisfied that the "Iraqi" army is truly integrated, while all along that training by the Americans will simply help to better prepare the Shi'a in Iraq for the ultimate showdown with the Sunnis) -- in other words, are we for the Shi'a ascendancy (obtained through the ballot, reflecting population figures) or are we now suddenly thinking we should be checking the Shi'a, and protecting, or even promoting, the Sunnis?
Last month the Shi'a, now this month the Sunnis, now next month the Sh'a again -- the whirligig of policy, when those making it overlook the most obvious thing in the world.
And what is that thing? That thing is: Islam is the problem, Islam whether Sunni or Shi'a, whether Arab or Iranian or other. And any conceivable way to permit the natural fissures, sectarian and ethnic, within the camp of Islam, to develop, should be seized upon, gratefully. The failure to see this, the failure to undertstand that the two great beneficiaries of the removal of Saddam Hussein have been Saudi ARabia and Iran, and that the only way to undo their gains is to permit that proxy war between Sunni and Sh'a within Iraq to develop, and to be the cause of men, money, materiel, and attention from both Iran and Saudi Arabia, so that a kind of Iran-Iraq War (which did use up tens of billions of dollars given to Iraq by Saudi Arabia, by Kuwait, by the U.A.E.) is the best way to damage both Iran and Saudi Arabia.
Oh, one more thing. Would it be better to attack Iran's nuclear project while Americans are next door, and while the fondest hope of the Administration is to bring Sunni lion to lie down with Shi'a lamb, or perhaps Shi'a lion to lie down with Sunni lamb (depends on the year, the month, the week, the day), assuming that Iran's nuclear facilities can be bombed and still retain the -- whatever -- of the Shi'a in Iraq, or would it be better while the Shi'a and the Sunnis are at each others throats, no longer being held apart by American soldiers who haven't the faintest why they are being asked to prevent two versions of the Muslim enemy from inflicting damage on one another), to damage from afar, through the telemachy of missiles, Shi'a Iran just as it has made even Sunnis everywhere fearful, so that their pro forma shrill cries against the American attack on Iran will be more muted than it might otherwise have been.

What a cuddley monkey this abbasi is. I just want to put him in my pocket and love him to death, much like John Steinbecks character "Lennie" from the novel "Of mice and men."

Pull out! Cut! Run! Regroup & prepare for the next BIG fight.
Forget the "nation-building social experiment!"
Act like this is a war and actually try to win!
This is NOT 1984! There really is a war -- will we always be "at war" with Eurasia!
And we need to start acting in our own national interests for a change.
We may need to turn the place into a sea of glass if need be

Frank is absolutely spot on calling Ahmadinejad and Abbasi the ultimate suicide bombers.
Ahmadinejad has stated publicly of his desire to become a martyr in helping to establish the Caliphate of the 12th iman.
Russian technicians have been in Iran for years. Also a fact is over 250 nuclear warheads are missing and unaccounted from the old Soviet Union.
Ahmadinejad's revelation about the rapid progress of Iran's nuclear program may be an indication that those missing warheads are nearing modification to fit Iran's existing missles.
Placing these missles on mobile launchers will make them as illusive as the scuds in Iraq.
In light of the above, when Ahmadinejad decides to fulfill his desire for martyrdom,I do not believe anything can stop him from unleashing the greatest nuclear holocaust imaginable.

OK, let me see if I have this right. Iran is and has been denying that they are sponsoring terrorism, furnishing support to the terrorist in Iraq, have no terrorist training camps in their country, etc, etc. Now they confess to have 40,000 trained suicide bombers ready to be unleashed on the US and the Brit's, they also say their nuke development is only for peaceful purpose. By damn if I'm not beginning to think those people just are not very truthful.

Don't forget muslims always lie. muslim math 40,000 = one or two, trained = they read a leaflet on suicide bombs. If they really had them why would they warn us? I don't think they have the other amazing weapons they bragged about either. They are scared and they are bluffing. I never heard the story of missing nukes but worse case it. If true and all 250 go off in a US city, we will still not be totally destroyed as a nation. One boomer sub could wipe out all of the middle east by itself and we will still have enough nukes left to destroy all life on the planet a few times over. Iran can make all the claims they want it would take way more than them to stop us. Ahmadinejad reminds me of a little barking, growling lapdog, just because in it’s heart it thinks it is a Doberman and makes noise, it is still just a little barking, growling lapdog.

This is an appropriate course of action:
Support the Kurds in the north; they are not islamic jihadists & do not wish that Shaira law or islam be the law of the land.
Redeploy US military assests to the Kurdish north in Iraq in case Iran attacks US forces in Iraq.
Train only Iraqis who are not jihadists and will not attack US & coalition forces.
Exploit the rift between the Shia Iraqis who are arab and the Shia Iranians who are not arab.
We have to keep on our toes and adapat to the changing winds.
The Iraqi shite jihadists & sunni jihadists are currently embroiled in a power struggle - let these jihadists kill themselves off.
US forces should go all out on the offensive if and when Iran starts the war.
God Bless America!

As to this article, this is not a shock to anyone here at Jihad watch. When we think of immigration we must be aware of cultural diversity. We are afraid of being called racist. But it is not racist, it is culturist to say no Sunni Muslims may enter Western countries. We have to ask what we gain by having one more muslim in America and what we might lose.
Culturism provides a positive value for us to rally around. It also gives us a way to discuss common sense issues the way other nations (Iran and China for example) do. We must protect our special culture and get away from this universal rights model and fear of being called racists that does it. The word 'culturism' can facilitate such dialogues.
I hope you do not find the following inappropriate.
I have a chance to spread the word about culturism by being on a tv show to talk about my book, Culturism. If you agree with such views please vote for me at www.bookmillionaire.com

I never thought I'd feel as disgusted as I do with the complete inverted logic of the left lately. They are quite despicable. Regarding the use of nukes against Iran, heres a charming little comment from a Kos genius...
What is the justifiable context then?
This is madness that passes for credible debate. The comment should exist apart on its own whether you call it 'cherry picking' or not. There is no context for threatening to nuke another country in preemption. No context that this is a legal negotiating strategy within the NPT treaty we hold over the Iranians heads. It is against the treaty to threaten non-nuclear states with nuclear weapons.
It stands on its own for being 'bat-shit' crazy just like members on the JCS are willing to resign over.
-----------------------------------------
In other words, leave the mullahs alone to continue developing their nukes, because they are non-nuclear now and using nukes to prevent the Iranians from making nukes is just NUTS. Or something.

but I would like to add;
However, considering how easy it is to travel between borders in Europe they are not alone in their incompetence.
I have a horrible suspicion that European government officials care more about how they are percieved by each other than actually care for their own people.
In my view, if politicans really cared and respected their own citizens, as perhaps say friends or parents of a family, they would not make arms deals with dangerous regimes, and thus put the citizens in jeopardy.
It has been my observation that it is always the Goverment politican who says "we will not negotiate with terrosits" and it is always the citizen who ends being killed not the politician.

The labour government has thrown the doors open to everyone as part of their plan to create the Superstate of Europe as proposed by Hitler among others. Since the bombings here we have seen Blair apologising to the muslim community and giving them huge concessions so he does not lose their bloc vote. When the iranian muslims choose to bomb this country they will merely have to say that we are being racist or islamiphobic and they will be welcomed with open arms. Blair must know what the outcome is going to be with this huge influx of muslims intent on colonising th UK. What is most frightening is that he and his government must have decided that there is an "acceptable" amount of innocent deaths in order to retain power in my country.
Blair is happy to see the people killed and maimed as the alternative is that he makes hard decisions and has to whether the flak from the PC squad.

The western democracies' best defense against Islamic states is probably to deploy Electro Magnetic Impulse Weapons over these states' air space. This would NOT result in direct loss of life and WILL render them incapable of assaults against non-Islamic states.
This should already have been done really. Jeopardization of access to petroleum supplies is NO reason for putting this off. Human life is far more important!
