Russia and Iran threatens...

I told you Russia is not our friend...

President Vladimir Putin sent a chilling message to world leaders on the eve of the Group of Eight summit with a threat to aim Russian nuclear missiles at European cities for the first time since the Cold War.

At Wednesday's meeting in Germany, the Russian leader said U.S. plans to erect a missile-defense shield in Eastern Europe had left him with no choice but to retaliate. No choice? It is a defensive system so this tells me Russia still has plans to bring back the USSR.

And the reason we are putting the defensive missile system in Europe has opened his mouth again...

In a defiant speech yesterday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said: "Even if all the world powers are slitting their own throats, the Iranian people are invincible and will remain invincible.
"Iran is not trying to make aggression against other countries. It only wants that its right be accepted and will not accept the injustice of the great powers," he said.[snip]

Iran's hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Sunday said the world would witness the destruction of Israel soon, the official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.

Ahmadinejad said last summer's war between Israel and Hezbollah showed for the first time that the "hegemony of the occupier regime [Israel] had collapsed, and the Lebanese nation pushed the button to begin counting the days until the destruction of the Zionist regime," IRNA quoted him as saying.

"God willing, in the near future we will witness the destruction of the corrupt occupier regime," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying during a speech to foreign guests who attended ceremonies marking the 18th anniversary of the death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who is known as the father of Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.

We certainly live in interesting times...
