Iran thumbs its nose at the USA and the world

The abomination in Iran that goes by the name Ahmadinejad, has nominated a terrorist to the post of Defense Minister. I think USA will live to regret their decision that they did not show even a shred of moral support to the uprising which was bound to fail without the blessing of the USA. What a waste of young lives and what a waste of the golden opportunity that was given to the world to bring about a change in Iran, any change would have been better than the death squads raping and killing the detainees in prison. History will note, and the words will not be kind, when the tale of the failed uprising is told it will show how the world ignored an oppressed people who were thirsty for freedom but their cries fell on deaf ears.

Incredibly, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran has nominated a suspected international terrorist to become the country's next defense minister. As a gesture of sheer contempt for what the world thinks of Iran and its government, this is hard to beat. Ahmad Vahidi is wanted by Interpol in connection with a deadly 1994 attack on a Jewish community center in Argentina that killed 85 people and left 151 wounded. He is also a former commander of the Quds Force, the external operations branch of the Revolutionary Guards, and a suspect in the 1996 attack on the U.S. Air Force barracks in Saudi Arabia. Yet this is the man Mr. Ahmadinejad would place in a key government position -- in charge of Iran's armed forces. The nomination is an affront to every nation that believes in justice and the rule of law. Obviously, Mr. Ahmadinejad does not share those values, and neither do any members of the Iranian Parliament who would vote to confirm the nomination.
