Spencer: Have You Been Ahmadinejadized?

In the featured article at FrontPage this morning I discuss the Thug-In-Chief's recent letter to the American people (news links in the original):

“I have travelled to all the continents except for one,” Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said recently, “and I know what is going on out there. Everybody is eager to hear the Iranian people’s message. The world is rapidly becoming Ahmadinejadised.”

And he’s right: Ahmadinejadization is spreading. Its symptoms are clear from his Friday letter to the American people. Addressed to “Noble Americans,” in the letter Ahmadinejad calls on America to withdraw from Iraq, end support for Israel, and convert to Islam. If we do those three things, peace will ensue: we’ll be…Ahmadinejadized.

“Now that Iraq has a Constitution and an independent Assembly and Government,” he says, “would it not be more beneficial to bring the US officers and soldiers home, and to spend the astronomical US military expenditures in Iraq for the welfare and prosperity of the American people?” (When Tokyo Rose said things like that, at least she played some catchy pop tunes). Ahmadinejad, of course, has a deep concern for the welfare of the American people, as demonstrated by his earlier statement: “I say accomplishment of a world without America and Israel is both possible and feasible.” At the UN in September, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez echoed these words, saying: “The United States empire is on its way down and it will be finished in the near future, inshallah.” Chavez, you see, has been Ahmadinejadized.

“Persistent aggressions by the Zionists,” Ahmadinejad asserts, “are making life more and more difficult for the rightful owners of the land of Palestine…. What has blind support for the Zionists by the US administration brought for the American people? It is regrettable that for the US administration, the interests of these occupiers supersedes the interests of the American people and of the other nations of the world.” This manifestation of Ahmadinejadization is spreading even more rapidly than the first one. On November 17 the United Nations General Assembly voted 156-7 to call upon Israel to end its defensive actions in the Gaza Strip, while making no mention of the terror attacks Palestinian jihad groups have launched from Gaza since the September 2005 Israeli withdrawal from the Strip was supposed to usher in an era of peace. The UN, too, has been Ahmadinejadized.

The UN, of course, was the site of the most celebrated instance of Ahmadinejadization: when he addressed the General Assembly in September 2005, he said later that “one of our group told me that…he saw a green light come from around me, and I was placed inside this aura. I felt it myself. I felt that the atmosphere suddenly changed, and for those 27 or 28 minutes, all the leaders of the world did not blink. When I say they didn’t move an eyelid, I’m not exaggerating. They were looking as if a hand was holding them there, and had just opened their eyes – Alhamdulillah [thanks be to Allah]!” The leaders of the world were Ahmadinejadized.

And now the intrepid Iranian President wants the entire United States to experience the glories of Ahmadinejadization. “It is possible to govern based on an approach that is distinctly different from one of coercion, force and injustice. It is possible to sincerely serve and promote common human values, and honesty and compassion. It is possible to provide welfare and prosperity without tension, threats, imposition or war. It is possible to lead the world towards the aspired perfection by adhering to unity, monotheism, morality and spirituality and drawing upon the teachings of the Divine Prophets. Then, the American people, who are God-fearing and followers of Divine religions, will overcome every difficulty….We should all heed the Divine Word of the Holy Qur’an: ‘But those who repent, have faith and do good may receive Salvation. Your Lord, alone, creates and chooses as He will, and others have no part in His choice; Glorified is God and Exalted above any partners they ascribe to Him’ (28:67-68).”

That he chose a verse that rules out “partners” of Allah indicates that he intended a swipe at Christianity, as in the Islamic view Christians have associated “partners” with Allah by regarding Jesus as divine. Thus Ahmadinejad is calling upon Americans, and the world, to forsake Christianity for Islam. If we heeded this call, of course, we would be Ahmadinejadized.

He has skillfully couched his call in the language of freedom from “coercion, force and injustice,” and the promotion of “common human values, and honesty and compassion.” But no one should be fooled: behind his carefully chosen words is a reality, thinly disguised, of aspirations to genocide, along with the institutionalized subjugation of women and religious minorities, and the extinguishing of the freedoms of speech and conscience.

Those things are what the President of Iran wants for us most of all. They are the quintessence of Ahmadinejadization.

I'd rather be "Pattonized"-identify the enemy, formulate a sensible plan, then utterly smash that enemy.
Never mind worrying about collateral damage or public relations-just destroying the enemy's ability to resist and making sure that ability isn't quickly rebuilt anytime soon.

When will A-Nut move from saying he chats with the Mahdi to actually claiming to BE the Mahdi? His delusions are getting to be more and more ridiculous. By now he'd be in a rubber room if he were in the West.

I would love to be Ahmadinejadized, except I don't have the means to lobotomize 99% of my brain, I am not willing to turn my heart over to Satan, and I cannot figure out how to fill the contents of my being with the intestinal waste material of a bull...

In his letter the Psychotic-In-Iran calls upon Bush and America to convert to his belief-system. Rejecting or ignoring the invitation gives the-Psychotic-In-Iran the right to kill the president and other American Unbelievers who he sarcastically refers to as "Nobel Americans". I'm sure the Psychotic-In-Iran's irony and humor is well received by many belief-system adherents.

The American people and the president do not see this sneering threat by the Psychotic-In-Iran because of the current Western Supremacist dogma of multiculturalism that has been peddled for years by Armstrong-Esposito types. (Saudi Arabia must be inferior under such a dogma.)Such lobotomizers of critical thinking refuse to let us examine the supremacist beliefs of Islam and really learn something about Islam (especially in Saudi Arabia) by addressing obvious facts and critically thinking about the supremacist dogmas of Islam.

We learn nothing about Islam (or our own culture) by this lobotomized "mosaic" view, this stealth-supremacist multicultural dogma that sees looking at all facts, critical thinking re unpleasant facts, and judgements as bigotry. This thinking destroys the desire to know what is good and bad by telling us that there is no good and bad.

If education is not about knowing what is good and bad (based on reason)then what is it about? Multiculturalism and Islamic jihad are equally dangerous supremacist beliefs that cripple the free and open exchange of ideas and opinions and the free mind. Both are footbinding for the mind that blind us to the truth-facts, which are not relative.

For these multiculturalism-dogma "reasons" the president and the American people did not see that the president's life and the lives of all "Nobel Americans" has been threatened by the Psychotic-In-Iran. All cultures have supremacist assumptions and some of them are bad. Multiculturalism-dogma is very bad for critical thinking. (If we really understood the supremacist nature of Islam and Sharia law we probably would not be in Iraq now.)

Someone needs to do a parody of the old Jacko energizer commercial but obviously with a dhimmi-Jacko saying "Ahmedinedajize me! Oy!" at the end.

Uh, did all noble Americans get a copy of that letter?

Just curious. I'm still waiting for mine.

Posted by: americaningermany at December 4, 2006 10:14 AM

Obviously, you are not noble. That,and the fact that you are not living in "the Amerike".
But I wouldn't worry-I suspect most of us aren't noble enough to get a copy either. I shall find a way to get a good night's sleep nonetheless.

Posted by: ISLAMSFORLOSERS [TypeKey Profile Page] at December 4, 2006 10:23 AM

Noble Americans,

What has blind support for the Zionists by the US administration brought for the American people? It is regrettable that for the US administration, the interests of these occupiers supersedes the interests of the American people and of the other nations of the world.

What have the Zionists done for the American people that the US administration considers itself obliged to blindly support these infamous aggressors? Is it not because they have imposed themselves on a substantial portion of the banking, financial, cultural and media sectors?

Well ?

With pathological and irrational anti-Americanism more rampant (I prefer "rampanter", but I hesitate) around the globe than ever, Ahmadinejadization is not that far-fetched.

Posted by: remote_control [TypeKey Profile Page] at December 4, 2006 12:03 PM

Waiting for duh Mahdi...and waiting and waiting. Soon Beasty Boy Dinnerjacket will announce himself Mahdi or appoint someone. The groundwork for Mahdi to attack the west, US especially ,has already been layed. Thats what the invitations for Bush, and now the 'noble' Americans, is all about, convert or die. A 'noble' American is one who is already a muslim, or one willing to convert. The rest are expendable kufars, apes and pigs, and other people Allah hates...

So saith Mr. Imanatteringnutjob:

“It is possible to govern based on an approach that is distinctly different from one of coercion, force and injustice."

Yeah, it's possible, but not, of course, in Iran -- which manages to make the Peoples Republics of China and Korea look like oases of tolerance.

I guess all those public executions of apostates, political opponents, alleged homosexuals and adulterers, etc., etc. are just opportunities for the mandatory attendees to bond and get to know one another.

Please, somebody, give this thug a trip to paradise. Soon.

Nancy Pelosi is Ahmadinejadized.

Posted by: EliasAlucard [TypeKey Profile Page] at December 4, 2006 2:07 PM

This Ahmadinejad is simply a precusor to the Mahdi, like what du_swami said. No, I don't think he is the Al-Mahdi (Antichrist, First Beast of Revelations 13) -- he is simply a prototype. Notice how he beguiles people with nice sounding words, words of peace. The Bible says, the Antichrists will "by peace destroy many". Notice how he attracts certain kind of people, the Latin Americans, the South Americans, the Africans? As the stage is set for America's influence to wane, no even for people to hate America, the world is being prepared to love the Antichrist. Expect that when the real one comes, it will be even harder to see through the thick taqiyya.

@sleepycat

Tell you what...

Let's make a deal..

You muslims hand over Mecca

and the Jews will trade you Jerusalem

or

Do the MUSLIMS HAVE TO HAVE EVERYTHING? Is 56 Muslim countries not enough. Have the Muslims not crapped up enough of the world's surface?

(I already know the answer: Everything (the world) belongs to the Muslims.

Right, sleepycat?

But you know...just because Mohammad (in his wet dream) rode his ass to Jerusalem so it could crap over the Jews' holy places, piss and mark the Muslim spot, I still don't get why the Jews should hand over Eretz Yisrael.

The Jews have made the desert bloom.

But the grass never grows where the Moslem goes!

Message to H.E. Dr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
From the American People

Given the technical difficulty of convening a meeting of our entire population of three hundred million, and the fact that your letter was addressed to “Noble Americans,” among which I count myself, I trust that you will forgive my presumptuousness in providing a unilateral response to your recent communiqué. In truth, even were it feasible to convene a meeting of our entire population to formulate a unified response to your missive, such a response would be impossible due to the blessed diversity of opinion which we, as truly free citizens, embrace. Please rest assured, however, that there are many millions of Americans who share my views and would gladly affix their signatures to this letter were they given the opportunity.

You profess to share our commitment to freedom, human dignity and integrity, our devotion to the cause of freedom, justice and equity for all human beings. You would have us believe that your course is noble, your goals humane, your mission one of pristine glory for all of mankind. Sir, we know the truth.

Our Constitution grants us true freedom, freedom unequalled on this planet. We are free to speak our minds, publicly and without fear of retribution. We are free to worship as we please, or to refrain from worshipping at all. We have the right to select those who will represent us in our government, to criticize them when we feel it is warranted and to replace them if we feel they have failed. We are tolerant of diversity not because our government mandates our tolerance, but because we understand that diversity makes us stronger. We are fiercely independent and often obnoxiously proud of our freedoms. We can be very arrogant, but it is an arrogance born of the knowledge that we have found a superior way of life, and it is that very way of life that we would gladly export to the rest of the world.

These freedoms did not come without a cost, nor have they remained without our constant vigilance and strength. No other nation is as polarizing as ours; none attracts as much interest, both from those who love us and those who hate us.

We do not seek to annex land from other nations, or to appropriate their goods. We seek only fair, peaceful and mutually beneficial interactions with our global neighbors. We detest tyranny and injustice in any form, and are willing to die to prevent it, wherever it exists.

You speak of our Administration’s “lies” and “deception.” Our Administration does not have the luxury of being able to lie to us – as free citizens, we have access to information from myriad sources to allow us to discover the truth.

You speak of our soldiers wondering why they were sent to Iraq, and their families being discontent with their absence. Our soldiers know precisely why they are in Iraq, because they volunteered to go there; they are in Iraq to liberate millions of people who had, for far too long, lived under the despotism of Saddam Hussein. Their families pray for their safety, and wish that their sons and daughters, husbands and wives were home with them, but the vast majority of those family members would take up arms in an instant and serve alongside their loved ones to defend our way of life.

You criticize our handling of prisoners captured in this fight for freedom. I submit that our handling of prisoners is much more humane and just than the handling we receive from the enemy, and, indeed, even more benevolent than your nation’s treatment of your own citizens, should they show any sign of dissent. Those prisoners were actively pursuing the death of Americans, on or off the battlefield, and are not worthy of kindness or consideration, but it is given anyway.

Your lack of understanding of Americans has led you to believe that the very vocal dissent of our politicians and pundits is a sign of weakness. You interpret our disagreements as signs of division in the ranks. Our dissent is merely a part of our process. As Hugo Chavez learned when he spoke so boldly at the United Nations, it is acceptable for us to express discontent with our President, but not for outsiders to do so. Given a choice between an American President who makes us angry and an Iranian President who would have us submit, we will choose our own every time, and die to defend him, if necessary.

You point out that hundreds of thousands of Iranians live amongst us in friendship and peace – does it not seem strange to you that so many of your compatriots would rather live here, amongst infidels, than in their homeland? Does it not occur to you that these Iranian-Americans are accepted as equals, with all the same opportunities as any other American citizen? How many Americans have chosen to leave their homeland to embrace your “God-fearing, truth loving and justice seeking” way of life?

You attempt to solicit our pity and compassion for the plight of the Palestinians, those poor, oppressed victims of the evil Zionists. We do feel compassion for them, and wish that their situation could be different. But we understand where the responsibility lies for their dilemma. Israel has tried to leave them in peace, but they refuse to accept the offer. I am not here to debate the irrefutable facts of the Holocaust or the reasons behind the establishment of the Israeli state – rather to move forward given the realities of the world as it exists today. Israel exists, and, as long as these United States stand, it will continue to be a free and sovereign nation. The Israeli people, like the American people, want only to live in freedom and peace. They do not seek to infringe on their neighbors or to impose their will on anyone. If the Palestinians would invest the vast amounts of energy and ingenuity they expend trying to kill Jews into building a nation, they could have a prosperous and flourishing country. Their situation is the direct result of the choices they make, and their situation will improve when their choices become self-serving instead of combative and destructive.

So it goes with the rest of the Middle East. We liberated the Iraqis from their horrible dictator. Certainly we made some mistakes along the way. Our primary and most grievous mistake was our assumption that people instinctively embrace freedom. People who have never experienced freedom have no incentive to embrace it. People who have been told how to behave and how to believe every day of their lives, and their parents’ lives, have no concept of free choice. People who have never experienced the joy of succeeding on their own merits, of seeing their dreams come to fruition, have no measure of true happiness. We did not take decisive control of the newly liberated country, and we left the door open a crack for opportunists such as yourself. This was our error, and this is what we now must correct.

I said before that our government does not have the luxury of being able to lie to us. That applies even more wholly to you. You do not practice what you preach, sir. We know the horrors your people have to live with. We know about your torture policies. We know how completely you must suppress your people to prevent uprisings which will overthrow your government. We know about the unemployment, the drug use and the prostitution that is rampant in your society. We know that you routinely execute homosexuals simply because they are homosexual. We know that you spend hundreds of millions of dollars supporting Hizb’Allah, Hamas and the Mahdi Army in Iraq. We know that millions of your citizens wait, and watch, and pray to the God of their understanding to rescue them from the atrocities that their leaders impose upon them. We know that anyone who dares to suggest that there is a better way of life than that which they have is imprisoned, abused or killed. We see through the fantasy that you are trying to present to the world, and we do not accept it.

You have offered us the opportunity to repent. We offer the same to you. We believe, with every fiber of our beings, that ours is a superior system. We believe this not because of material things, though our freedoms have enabled us to amass many. We believe this because we have lived it, for generations, and know the elation of freedom. We know that our country is not just our own – it is the pinnacle to which millions of people around the world aspire. We built a Nation from nothing but heart, and we will defend it until our last breath.

Know, Mr. Ahmadinejad, that we will never submit. We may be slow to anger, but our wrath is fierce and terrible once it is aroused. We do not seek confrontation, but we will not run from it. This land is not about money, or buildings, or weapons, or power. This land is about People, without whom it would be only a collection of rock and brick and steel. It is Americans that make us great, whatever their heritage and beliefs. If you can understand that, you will have mastered the greatest gift of all.

A Noble American
