************************************************** ******** I'm starting to appreciate President Ahmadinejad.
The little guy dresses like a middle-aged swinger trying to pick up young women in bars but he is the elected president of a sovereign nation.
He wants to develop nuclear power for his country and is doing so.
He wants to enrich his own uranium fuel and is doing so, as is his nation's right to as such.
He wants and is developing a space program.
He has seen the benefits and usefulness of drone aircraft and is now developing his own drones.
The fact that he expresses some rather odious views about other nations and races is his business as long as they remain oratory and do not become overt action on his part.
That the outside world may not approve of his criminal justice system doesn't bother him at all. If his citizens are so strongly opposed to it, let the revolution begin! After all, that's how Ahmadinejad's party got into power by replacing the Shah.
And what is he up against? Putin and Russia, who have offered to enrich the fuel for Iran and had their offer declined. You can bet Putin has made it clear to Ahmadinejad what will happen if even a whiff of weapons grade dust, traceable to Iran, ends up in Russia. Other than that, Putin doesn't care. China is a major business partner and won't do anything.
That leaves a small pack of western nations, most of whom have nukes, barking and yipping like the self-neutered dogs they are for "sanctions". The USA even has the complete lack of sense to send a woman (SoS Hillary Clinton) to an Islamic country to dictate terms to it. Really bad move there.
So there you have him, doing things he has the right to do within his country, regardless of who agrees with him and who does not. He is not hiding in a cave. He stands in the light of day telling the world they can just suck 'Ol Buck.
I wonder if his Feb 12th surprise is final proof, open to the world proof, that Obama is not legally qualified to be president of the USA. That would be a treat!
