Hey Ho, Ahmadinejad's Got To Go

Don't take my word for it. Listen to Ahmadinejad. This guy is delusional and a megalomaniac in the vein of Hitler or Stalin.

Commit genocide? No problem.
Mass murder? That's fine by him.
Ethnic Cleansing? The sooner the better.

But if it's Jews who claim that they were exterminated by Hitler, well then that's simply not true according to the Iranian leader. It's all a charade. But that's not the least of our worries about Ahmadinejad and his mullahs.

Ahmadinejad hopes the West keeps talking and stalling for time as his scientists ready a nuclear weapon for use against any of his enemies, including Israel, the US, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, or much of Europe.

Nuclear war during the Cold War was as close as the least stable guy with their finger on the button. Now, we're witnessing what may happen if the least stable guy in the room has their hand on the button with absolutely no limitations on its use. Ahmadinejad is unconstrained by notions that would otherwise cause a political leader to pause and stop to consider the use of the nuclear weapon. During the Cold War, the US and USSR came perilously close to engaging each other in a nuclear confrontation, such as during the Cuban Missile Crisis or during the 1973 Yom Kippur War, but in each instance, the crisis passed as each side realized they were adding to the fires and sought to back away.

Ahmadinejad has no interest in backing away. He wants the confrontation. He wants the violence. And it's for that reason that Ahmadinejad has got to go. And not just Ahmadinejad, but the mad mullahs that make up the totalitarian government that controls Iran's future. They're so convinced that the nucelar bomb will change their fortunes that they've staked pretty much everything on it.

The sad thing is that so far the mullahs have been right. They've bluffed their way into nearly obtaining the bomb without the interference of the IAEA, the EU, the UN, or the US. Despite the fact that US forces are in the region, we're not quite able to deal with the Iranian threat because of the Democratic back-benchers who are politically motivated to undermine the Administration at all costs, despite the threats posed by enemies of the US around the world.

The others aren't able to muster the political will to force Iran to stop, and instead consider one Munich Agreement after another. They'll have peace in their time, until the bomb goes off shattering that illusion.

Others blogging on Ahmadinejad and his insane clown rantings: Flopping Aces, Atlas Shrugs, Discarded Lies, Dissecting leftism, A Knights Blog, In The Bullpen, Media Backspin, Michelle Malkin, Regime Change Iran, and Dr. Sanity. Mudville Gazette notes that the US is not going to rule out a strike against Iran unless Iran conforms to international agreements and norms.

UPDATE:
Thinking Aloud says WTF and thinks that Ahmadinejad may be speaking for himself and not his country, he's well on his way to becoming the next Hitler. Smooth Stone comes up with a snazzy logo proclaiming that Israel is on the map to stay. Scaramouche has some interesting comments, and thinks that Ahmadinejad's out to confront folks. We just don't know the endgame.
Israpundit wants people to speak out against Ahmadinejad's ravings, and notices that Sweeden is about to cut diplomatic ties with Iran. NetWMD.com also wants people to speak out. Shuggy's Blog traces Ahmadinejad's comments back to European anti-Semitism. Also commenting is Sophistpundit.
