What is Ahmadinejad trying to achieve?

[Some Dude]

I really dont get this joker, saying 911 was a big lie?

That the names of the dead have never been released?

During a time when tensions are already running high?

Is this a spin or for real?

"U.S. version of the Sept. 11 attacks "....Is there another version from another country out there? I wasn't aware that this was debatable.

CIA and/or isreal 'mossad' guys did it.... that is very popular theory among muslims. Even if muslims did it, they were somehow 'tricked' into doing it by CIA and Mossad.

Nuts, but that is islam.

This is for internal consumption. You have to create an enemy on the outside to control your population. You have to keep up the rhetoric otherwise the population starts thinking about their internal problems. As the article reported


told Iranian state TV

Not like they are getting balanced news reporting. Their Green movement must really be worrying them.

Bingo!

Old tactic, also worked well for Hitler and many others. Create a common enemy to unite your people against.

The same strategy is used by political parties to rally the voters.

To the detriment of the country.

[woodsman]

If he is so interested in nukes maybe he would like a live fire demonstration.:patriot::patriot::patriot:

To the detriment of the country.

No doubt!

[Some Dude]

Didnt some other feller do something similar over there a few years ago?

I dont think it really worked out for him.

I guess what im saying is, i know what hes trying to achieve on his home front, but didnt he ever think he would have to answer for it, or that the truth wouldnt come out at least in the international community?
Did they elect a freakin goat farmer president?

Saddam?

His mistake was to push too far, and we called his bluff. This guy may not push as far, and he also knows the current commander-in-chief probably won't do anything about it.

That and convincing Bush he had wmd's, really, duh??

This guy is a big fish in a little pond, just because he rules his country with fear doesnt mean someone wont put him in check if he steps out of line to far.

They keep talking nukes, Israel will step in, then its going to be a mess.

He is a big fish in a medium sized pond. They have the largest army in the region save yours and it has been through bloody times defending their country. They would be no pushover. It would take a direct threat to Israel to have them use nukes they 'do not have'. He is much too smart to go that far untill he has some of his own.

He has something over all us. Oil. Notice how we are willing to sanction him but still buy their oil? A lot of the oil from the region passes through a narrow straight that they can shut down. It would make the gas lines of the 70's look mild.

He is smart enough to stir the pot but not have pain rain down on them.

OP: "What is Ahmadinejad trying to achieve?"

Hard to tell. But if he's trying to make me totally nonchalant about his violent passing, he has succeeded.

I wasnt talking about israel using nukes.

[Learn-never-end]

Ahmadinejad, he smoke too much bad stuff. he was told too say whatever the supreme leader told him to say. Iranian people are good people just fanatic leader really sick mind, they are the devil and sick beyond word

[corny]

He is just having a little fun trolling the world.....

As a world leader he can troll the world thru the media instead of having to go on the internet to some forum such as this one.

Probably just for laughs too...... He must be bored..... cause this is actually old news....and the only reason I could see for him putting it out there again is just to get a few jollies off the reaction from the international community.

Hopefully the world wont bite as easily as people in internet forums do.....

If I was the USA I would assasinate his family and then see how he reacts. Maybe even put out an official government press release that his family killed themselves because they hated living with him so bad.

Give him a taste of his own medicine.
