Bravo, Prodi! From the AP newswire:
Italian Premier Romano Prodi said Monday that Iran must be prevented from acquiring nuclear weapons and called on Gazas Hamas rulers to release a captured Israeli soldier.
Prodi was on a three-day trip to Israel and the West Bank to discuss ways to promote Mideast peacemaking. At a news conference, he joined Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in speaking of the need to block Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
“We can never accept a country sworn to Israels destruction becoming a nuclear power,” Olmert said.
Bits and pieces from recent events with Iran should go a long way in convincing at least a handful of Americans that Iran’s Islamic thugocracy is asking for a beat-down, but fully expecting not to get one. Now, why is that? Because we historically have given every reason for the Islamists in Iran to believe that they can act with impunity and get away with it. And unfortunately, I’m starting to think they might be right.
Americans held hostage; the same old song and dance. Hey, if it’s worked since ‘79! From the New York Post, Iran’s Soros:
