In reaction to this tough scolding Iran said tomorrow, they would bring a note from their mother.The United States called Monday on Iran to end its "horrible rhetoric" after President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's attacks on Israel but said it still wanted talks with Tehran to mend relations."We want to have a direct dialogue with Iran, but Iran needs to do a number of things to get back in the overall good graces of the international community," State Department spokesman Robert Wood told reporters.
"If Iran wants a different relationship with the international community, it has to stop this horrible rhetoric," he said.
Addressing a UN conference against racism, Ahmadinejad, whose nation passed laws forcing jews to stay in during the rain so that posible jewish dirt of some sort could not run off onto muslims, criticized the creation of a "totally racist government in occupied Palestine" in 1948, calling it "the most cruel and racist regime."
Afterward, Achmadinejad displayed how upset he was with american displeasure.

Actually, I am fair game for giving Obama a shot at trying to open talks with the Iranians.
But before we talk, we need to learn more about the Persians beforehand.
Our government remains woefully ignorant of the benefits we can actually gain from just learning more about them.
Well Steve, it's sort of like this... It is a western ARROGANCE to convince oneself that talking (which is a tactic) with racists like this can achieve anything beside convincing those who mean us ill, they have a niche they can bore thru.
It is no accident that Chavez (another dear friend we want to have good relations with) is involved with this and lined up with them. Chavez is this:"Chavez said in a speech that "the descendants of those who killed Christ" and "the descendants of the same ones that kicked Bolivar out of here" had "taken possession of all the wealth in the world."
Would we have an Obama gleefully patting Jan Smuts on the back planning good relations with the purveyors of ACTUAL apartheid?
The Iranians have since 1979 seen every single leader, EVERY ONE threaten the jews with extermination. They don;t want what we want. They UNDERSTAND what it means to acquire nuclear weapons. The only question which matters ..because talk will change nothing, is if Iran is deterable.
Obama is paralleling PRECISELY the actions of the US presidents of the 1920's in their treaty aspirations, and Stanley Baldwin of England in his approach to any european conflict.
So let me put it straight.. talking will not only achieve NOTHING, it will allow SOME of us to convince ourselves that something important is going on while important Iranian goals are achieved, and everyone else understands this. If this goal is achieved the world (our enemies and our friends) will have taken the measure of the ability of the USA under Barack Obama and the democrats to achieve it's goals, and enhance it's security.
Chamberlain landed at Heston Aerodrome on 30 September 1938, and spoke to the crowds there:
"...the settlement of the Czechoslovakian problem, which has now been achieved is, in my view, only the prelude to a larger settlement in which all Europe may find peace. This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is the paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine (waves paper to the crowd - receiving loud cheers and "Hear Hears"). Some of you, perhaps, have already heard what it contains but I would just like to read it to you (proceeds to read the agreement). [...] We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement, as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again."[3]
Later that day he stood outside Number 10 Downing Street and again read from the document and concluded:
"My good friends, this is the second time in our history that there has come back from Germany to Downing Street peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time [emphasis added]. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. And now I recommend you to go home and sleep quietly in your beds."[3]
I figure we have somewhat less than the time they had.
A major regional war in the middle east, EVEN IF, WE, THE USA, HAS ZERO CASUALTIES will change the world profoundly, even if all that changes is PERCEPTION.
Crushing Iran would be a powerful scrotum tightener for Waziristan and Swat, the Taliban, MMA, LeT, and all the sons of bitches with their ginstsu's.
Obama could be FDR, but is determined to make Carter look like Hannibal
