You Cannot Make Chicken Salad from Chicken Shit

{UPDATE: Since publishing this blog, we have found a Cox and Forkum cartoon which is not only relevant but which captures the Iran-nuke versus the West stupidity completely.}



Our policy makers and "leaders" are setting us up for the biggest blow we have ever known, and the biggest ever in the history of Planet Earth. Paralysis from Republican moral uncertainty and Democrat perfidy keeps the US from acting in its rational self-interest and crushing Iran under its heel before it can pester the world any longer. Behind the rhetoric and the posturing are people too timid to stand up any longer to existential threats to the USA, and people who are so anti-American by intent or default that they will not stand up to existential threats to the USA.

Only in government and academia do people really believe that, to borrow an expression, you can make chicken salad out of chicken shit. As a result of their looking like fools and cowards, we endure blustering verbal garbage such as this:

WorldNetDaily: Ayatollah warns U.S. needs punch in mouth, Sunday, May 1, 2005


The spiritual leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is warning the U.S. to stay out of his country's business – and, in particular, its nuclear program, which is set to resume this week. Speaking on a tour of southeast Iran, Khamenei called the U.S. "arrogant," "rude" and said the country "deserved a punch in the mouth."

Khamenei said it was not up to the U.S. to decide which countries needed nuclear technology.

It needs to be said, without oily inferences and "nuances."

The Iranians have caused untold misery to the civilized world since 1979 and have plans to make it radioactive as soon as they can. They are run by Islam, and they, like Islam, are totally evil. The Iranian theocrats deserve to be annihilated and for Iran to be turned over to the freedom-seeking Iranians after their "holy butts" have been vaporized.

No discussion is necessary. JUST DO IT! ought to be stenciled onto every bomb, explosive, and bullet as well as every warship and every military aircraft. Then, we ought to go and do what needs to be done, without any further delay.

We must put Iran out of our misery. We must do it mercilessly. We must target all of the "holy" areas and absolutely all of the "holy" people from the air and ground. We must target everything that makes life for them possible and from which they can take any hope of survival: utilities, water, food, oil, ports, etc. We must bring them to their knees, destroying their will to fight, ever again. If it takes nukes, we must use them and use them liberally. We must do it right: Fast and total warfare until they either surrender in toto or cease to exist. It really doesn't matter which. Those caught should be shot on sight. We need spend no more men and materiel collecting, holding, and processing these kinds of prisoners.

We must put Islamia and Islam out of our misery. If the rest of the world wants to do the turkey trot with them, let them. An obliterating blow against Iran and Islam would put us in the proper position of being paid attention to when we speak. We could then tell Saudi Arabia to get off the dime regarding its terror-sponsoring activities. We would need only whisper what we would be prepared to do to them as well. And, if they insisted on being typically Islamically intransigent, we could provide a persuading demonstation. There is no doubt that with the right message, Saudi Arabia would get off the dime. The rest of Islamia would not fail to get the message either. Who cares if they "like" us? I would much prefer they fear us too much to mess with us. Afterall, being liked by them is not anything to brag about.

Islam drives Iran, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Pakistan, and various and sundry other cloacas. They are not rational, and they must be treated like the unruly beasts that they are. Yes, all of the ideological changes are very necessary, but they can come only when our survival and well-being are no longer threatened by Islam and its bestial adherents.

Is this what we are doing? Yes, yes, I recognize that this is a "rhetorical question." Here is what we are really doing--looking, sounding, and acting like chickenshits:

Washington agreed to support the EU effort but signaled that Iran, which Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice last month labeled an "outpost of tyranny," should quickly accept it or face harsh Security Council sanctions.

Iran has and will continue to act like a chronically unruly child disrespecting a parent who threatens punishment constantly and does nothing unless it is something ineffective. The UN cannot even pay its parking tickets or find its behind with both hands. There is much cowardly wringing of hands, a la Jimmy Carter:

There is increasing concern within the administration and Congress over Iran's missile program, which has been determined by a commission of U.S. scientists to pose a serious threat to U.S. security.

What is the payoff for all of this for US? What will we have to endure in America because of our "leaders" and "policy makers"? It ain't hard to figure out. This is what the chickenshittery will get us, and it will get us:

A report first published in Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin, a weekly, online, premium, intelligence newsletter affiliated with WND, revealed last week that Iran has been seriously considering an unconventional pre-emptive nuclear strike against the U.S.

An Iranian military journal publicly floated the idea of launching an electromagnetic pulse attack as the key to defeating the U.S.

Congress was warned of Iran's plans last month by Peter Pry, a senior staffer with the Commission to Assess the Threat to the United States from Electromagnetic Pulse Attack in a hearing of Sen. John Kyl's subcommittee on terrorism, technology and homeland security.

In an article titled, "Electronics to Determine Fate of Future Wars," the journal explains how an EMP attack on America's electronic infrastructure, caused by the detonation of a nuclear weapon high above the U.S., would bring the country to its knees.

"Once you confuse the enemy communication network you can also disrupt the work of the enemy command- and decision-making center," the article states. "Even worse today when you disable a country's military high command through disruption of communications, you will, in effect, disrupt all the affairs of that country. If the world's industrial countries fail to devise effective ways to defend themselves against dangerous electronic assaults then they will disintegrate within a few years. American soldiers would not be able to find food to eat nor would they be able to fire a single shot."

WND reported the Iranian threat last Monday, explaining Tehran is not only covertly developing nuclear weapons, it is already testing ballistic missiles specifically designed to destroy America's technical infrastructure.

What we have is the need to clean out our stables at home while cleaning theirs out in Iran and Saudi Arabia, for starters. Our survival and well-being depend on it. We can count on Islamic Iran carrying out nuclear attacks on us fully 100.00% unless we prevent it and do so definitively.
