absolute nutter

I was doing my daily reading of the news when I came across this item on BBC.com.

Iranian leader denies Holocaust - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has courted further controversy by explicitly calling the Nazi Holocaust of European Jewry a "myth". To read more, click on this entry's title.

What kinda idiot says something like that? Even the Germans have admitted to committing these atrocities and they would be the most likely people to deny it. This is way scary - more scary than the prospects of what Saddam could have done or what that little dude in North Korea is thinking. This is the leader of a country that is in the process of building a nuclear weapon - God/Allah only knows what he plans to do with it.

Certain religious fanatics would love to see the modern world plunged into the Dark Ages once again. A time when technology didn't threatened their seige on power by allowing people to share their ideas. A time when brute force (attained by men through genetic inheritance) ruled the world and people were 'bullied' into doing whatever the strongest wanted. A time when you could stone someone for a different idea than your own. Ahh, the good old days... *note LOUD tone of sarcasm for last statement*

So I think we need to treat our Iranian presidential friend to a little treat - doggie style. Just like you rub a dog's nose in its shit to drive home the point of what not to do, perhaps we need to take our naive friend for a field trip. Let him visit the mass graves and see the bones of the millions of Jews that were massacred in the Holocaust. Let him spend some time in a camp where thousands of people were burned on a daily basis.

Hopefully enough of the Iranian people will take note of just how looney this guy is and get him out of office. While Bush isn't the greatest American leader and has said some pretty stupid things in his presidency, at least he isn't THAT whacked in the head.
