Two American official have confirmed that Israeli warplanes bombed a convoy of trucks in Sudan in January that was believed to be carrying arms to be smuggled into Gaza, the New York Times reported Friday.
The two, who are privy to classified intelligence assessments, said that Iran had been involved in the effort to smuggle weapons to Gaza. They also noted that there had been intelligence reports that an operative with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps had gone to Sudan to coordinate the effort.
Israel should ignore Obama and do what it has to do. Unlike Serbia it has Nukes and a good air force, so they don’t have to worry about NATO or the UN.
Israeli President Shimon Peres also delivered a “special message” to Iran on Nowruz, but “was addressed specifically to Iran’s people and not their government, reprising the tone of [former President] Bush.” And Peres explicitly contradicted Obama and called on the Iranian people to overthrow their government:
“[I suggest] you don’t listen to [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad, it is impossible to preserve a whole nation on incitement and hatred, the people will become tired of it. […] I think that the Iranian people will topple these leaders…these leaders who don’t serve the people, in the end the people will realize that.”
I see nothing wrong with what Peres did. Think Progress does right here:
MJ Rosenberg at the Israel Policy Forum writes that Peres’s goal may have been to “intentially undermine” Obama and that the Iranians might not view the conflicting messages as just a coincidence.
Think Progress is bordering on conspiracy theories. Think progress openly supports the Iranian regime. I guess it is Progressive to Stone Women and Hang Gays. The Leftist-Islamic Alliance is all about hatred of the Judeo-Christian/Greco-Roman Civilization. The Left views Iran as an ally. Therefore they will defend them no matter what. They are the true Fascist, Progressives=Fascists!
The Iranians continue to have a hostile attitude towards Obama. He does everything to please them, just shy of giving them control over America. It doesn’t matter they sit back and laugh at his weakness.
TEHRAN, Iran(AP) – Iran played down President Barack Obama’s new video message to the Iranian people on Friday, saying it welcomed the overtures but warned that decades of mistrust can’t easily be erased. Obama released the video to coincide with the major Iranian festival of Nowruz, a 12-day holiday that marks the arrival of spring and the beginning of the new year in Iran. In the video, which has Farsi subtitles, Obama said the U.S. is prepared to end the strained relations if Tehran tones down its combative rhetoric.
Oh well the Community Organizer in Chief just doesn’t get it. The Iranian regime is an enemy. This proves Obama grew up in an isolated bubble. Anyone with common sense knows that you can’t speak to religious nuts.
Although Hassan Rahimpour Azghadi, a member of Iran’s Supreme Council for Cultural Revolution, made these statements months ago, they were finally translated this week by MEMRI. I am sure the international mainstream media would have been all over it, but they were too busy reporting on Obama’s NCAA picks, and Jay Leno appearance.
It seems that despite the West falling all over itself to find new ways to change, and surrender to Islamists, the Islamists are unimpressed with our peace gestures, and our so-called diplomacy.

The Iranian official’s function is to help export the Islamic Revolution and act against Western influence and feminism.
He stated in one speech, “The corrupt Pope went on a tour in order to cover up the homosexuality of his priests. As you know, he made a tour from America to Australia, saying: ‘We are sorry that our priests are pedophiles and homosexuals.’ … He paid three billion dollars in compensation to families whose little children were abused by priests in churches. But nobody sees what the pope himself does in the Vatican. It’s not clear who should apologize for the pope’s deeds.”
In another speech, he took aim at the U.S., stating its values are “sex, violence and melancholy.” We do not want to coexist with America. We want to combat America – not just America, but Zionism, England, and the leaders of global capitalism, who are exploiting the Muslims and the oppressed throughout the world,” said Azghadi.
He also claimed that the U.S. suffered almost no casualties in World War II because it entered in the final stages, although historians estimate the number of American casualties to have been between 300,000-400,000.
“In the many films about World War II, which you must have seen, the main characters are always American or English, and each of these characters kills 2,000 or 3,000 Germans singlehanded,” he declared. “They produce hundreds or thousands of films about operations that never took place, heroic feats they never accomplished, and sacrifices they never made. They are highly skilled in this.”
It is interesting how similar the complaints of Iranian Islamists (who openly state it is their goal to destroy America, and The West), are to the “progressives” within the West. Can we call them unpatriotic yet, or are the Iranian Islamists hyper-patriotic because of this “dissent”? It is all so confusing.

*UPDATE* (11:10 a.m. pst 3/20/09)
It seems that President Obama hasn’t quite gotten the message about Iran. During his message to Iranians world wide in celebration of Nowruz (Iranian New Year) Obama blindly continues his naive policy of hope over wisdom and gushes at the feet of those who chant “Death to America”.
