Something of a fallacy. You're trying to frame the debate so that if I disagree with your approach, I agree with "Sharia law". Go stand in the corner and think about what you've done! RP would not tolerate such shinannigans! :eek::mad:

He's the new boogeyman that's supposed to keep people living in fear in order to give up their freedom for security. Call him Saddam #2. But what most Americans still don't "get" is Ahmadinejad is a democratically elected President even though he is painted as a religious dictator by the media. Just more hypocrisy while "spreading democracy". The real reason for the disrespect is simply that the Israelis want him gone.

Not really.

The question is why I would disrespect a person that calls for sharia law. This begs the question of what a person has to stand for in order to be disrespected.

I think this is as good a starting place as any.

Hes right when it comes to foreign policy. Although to be fair he does fund anti-Israel groups. Domestically Iran is still controlled by the scumbag mullahs and the Iranian economy still sucks and instead of trying to fix it he is going around the world talking trash and playing into the US media's image of him.

Ahmedinejad is a prime example of a potentially very good person caught in the merciless grasp of religious dogma. Showing support for him, thus, is simply out of the question if we want to get anywhere. It's the common Iranian people (and lesser political entities that want to toss him aside) who we should be reaching out to.

He's not an economist, that's for sure.

But the media is just plain biased. People keep on throwing out the "wipe Israel off the map" statement, when it fact he said the Israeli regime should be erased off the page of time, something the Ayatollah Khomeini said earlier which he was quoting.

Our media is terrible.

BTW, he's still a bad guy, just not as bad as the media makes him out to be.

He's a douchebag...

Then again not as much of a douchebag as the Shah that we installed was.

He wants to sell oil for Euros instead of dollars. Which is the same thing Saddam did wrong. Does no one pay attention around here?

I would say our government and population's mob mentality deserves much more disrespect than Ahmadinejad.

What?! Are you advocating government intervening and fixing
"economic" problems a.la Paulson and The Fed? :confused:

The fact that our dollar stands to suffer from that decision says a lot about the negligence of our empire's financial wing. It's our problem, and should be dealt with as such.

If you want sovereignty, it needs to begin by not leeching off of other parts of the world.
