The behavior of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of Iran, has led me to conclude that he is just as dangerous as Adolf Hitler ever was, perhaps more so because he has the capability to produce nuclear weapons in the near future.
His public and private statements that Israel must be "wiped off the map" provide us with as much evidence of his future plans as Hitler's Mein Kampf did. People didn't "connect the dots" back then and the world paid a horrible price.
There is no need to go through that again. They hypothetical "would you go back in time to kill Hitler before he could do any harm?" is before us right now with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The obvious answer to the hypothetical question about Hitler is the same as the very real question about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Yes, he must die before he can bring the world to ruin through a nuclear war.
I am happy to see that there is some agreement on this point:
TEHRAN (
Reuters) - Bombs ripped through a bank and government building in Iran's mainly Arab southern city of Ahvaz on Tuesday, killing four people, police said.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had been due to visit the city on Tuesday, but his office said he had cancelled the trip on Monday night because of sandstorms which would have stopped him doing his hallmark walks through the streets.
However, Lebanon's al-Manar television, run by the pro-Iranian Hizbollah group, said the bombs had been intended to kill Ahmadinejad. Its Tehran correspondent said the president had called off his trip after a security tip-off.
It's only a matter of time. Ahmadinejad's death warrant has been signed.
For those about to object to calls for someone's assassination, what is your answer to the hypothetical question about Hitler? Why should it be any different for Ahmadinejad?
