Question: does calling someone a Holocaust Denier enough to invoke Godwin's Law?
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is now trying to become the white supremist poster boy. He has called the Holocaust a myth, and wants the Jews sent back where they came from. He's done everything but shave his head and wear Doc Martins.
The fact that he's doing it is not suprising - he is, after all, an embattled leader in a Mulsim theocracy. Threatening Israel and badmouthing the US comes right after praising Allah in the Iranian campaigner's diary. What's unsettling is that he's doing it with American military forces on two of his borders. One would think he isn't too concerned with invasion.
He may be right. This is the final repercussion of the bad intel/lack of planning that has plagued the Iraq War. Iran, and Syria, are not afraid of the United States right now. They see Uncle Sam as a bungler, vulnerable to a few suicide bombers.
So, now what? Do we ignore him, confirm their beliefs, and get ready for a wave of terrorist attacks? Or do we attack, and commit overworked soldiers to another series of battles?
