Title: Think Iran can't get any weirder?
Post by: fightingquaker13 on May 09, 2011, 03:30:51 AM

Ah, Iran. Thank God they're there or Florida would be the weirdest place on the planet. It seems Ahmadinejad and Khameni are on the outs. The president is trying to push the clerics on the Guardian Council back. The clerics have struck back. How? By accusing the President's supporters of "witchcraft, sorcery and summoning djiins" of course. Seems logical to me. I just hope we get a show trial where we see Ahmadinejad put on a giant scale to see if he's heavier than a duck. This followed by a good old fashioned burning at the stake. Do these people really expect the world to trust them with nuclear weapons? ::)

FQ, If you lived in the 11th century, which these clerics do, at least in their thinking, how would you describe Nukes ?
Works of Satan ?   Flaming demons from Hell ?
Fear not, S. Fl and Ca are still the weirdest places on the planet.   ;D

Those djinn/genies were always causing problems for Major Tony Nelson in I Believe in Jeanie.

In a move that will distress all our Jeanie fans (and I am one, too) I'd like to subtly push this thread back to its original topic--Weirdness in Iran.

Just read a headline from The Telegraph, a UK newspaper:  Mahmoud Ahmadinejad 'under a spell', Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says

As one delves further into the story, the revered Aytollah hedges his bet by stating he is only 90% sure.

And these camel porkers may soon have nuclear weapons.   Sheesh...
