I once knew a woman who survived the A-Bomb in Hiroshima.

I may or may not know another future survivor nor survive future A-Bombs myself. The world became a much more dangerous and duplicitous place over this last weekend. m/r

Melanie Phillips: It's 1938 all over again

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | When Hassan Rouhani was elected President of Iran, western leaders declared, in the teeth of stark evidence to the contrary, that this man was a reformer. So they rushed to do a deal with him over Iran's nuclear program, considered by the west to be a threat to the free world.
But Rouhani does not run Iran. The man who actually calls the shots — the only man who matters — is Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. Earlier this week, Khamenei said the Jews of Israel

'cannot be called humans, they are like animals, some of them'

and that Israel was

'the rabid dog of the region'.

What do you do with rabid dogs? That's right: you put them down. That's what Khamanei intends to do to the Jews of Israel. That's why he says Israel is 'doomed to collapse' and why his regime has repeatedly declared it will wipe Israel 'off the page of history'. Dehumanizing the Jews: ring any bells? Know what happened next? But it's not just the Jews who are in Iran's sights. It's the west, upon which it has been waging a self-declared war since the Islamic revolution of 1979.

'Death to America! Death to Israel!' chanted the crowd in response. Yup, that's the agenda. Always has been. And they mean it.
