It's a safe bet that Obama wasn't behind this. If he were, the bomb would have talked and talked and talked first, then shook a lot before making a pooping sound instead of an explosion of any kind.
Next time perhaps whomever tried this stunt will purchase their explosives from somewhere besides Discount Explosives Are US" To bad the CIA didn't have a team in the area. From the looks of the photo it would have been a perfect opportunity for a sniper. With the apparent chaos and crowds a good sniper from a half mile away or so could have taken this A-hole out and got away unnoticed.
It looks like all his people wear the same light gray jackets and try to look as much like him as possible. People around Saddam did the same thing. Must be a middle east kind of thing.
I thought Ahmadenijad blamed the attack on "stupid Zionists". So which is it? Get your story straight before you start commenting to the press. That's simple How-to-be-a-President 101, dude.
I'd like to point out the immense amount of smoke.... how many firecrackers have you seen smoke like that? I mean, other than the firecracker called DYNAMITE.
Ernie----- Too bad there wasn't some "weapons of mass destruction" in his car then maybe the CIA would found their mark. If you can dodge a shoe you can dodge a bomb.
Too bad that he will haul in a number of innocent people who "in his paranoia" had something to do with this and they will be executed with a trial, him being the judge. The numbers could range from 30 to 30,000. It will be in the "best interest of the country."
I'm sorry this attempt didn't work.
The average Iranian is a very nice person (from what little I know).
This was a "close" one for the beast (Ahdinemajad) who leads Iran.
Next time, he may not be this lucky. Hopefully the person who set off the bomb didn't die. If they caught him or catch up with this person, dead is the word.
If he Ahdinemajad was killed, there is always someone worse to take their position. It is the Ayatollah who appoints (fraud free elections) the next "Monster".
It's a safe bet that Obama wasn't behind this. If he were, the bomb would have talked and talked and talked first, then shook a lot before making a pooping sound instead of an explosion of any kind.
It's also a safe bet that if would have done it it would have detonated in your hands, because of all of your chronic whining.
Since the Ayatollah has all the power then I say he's gotta go too...With him and Ahmanutjob gone Iran might actually have a chance at joining the modern world....
Since these nut jobs in Tehran want a nuke so bad, let's deliver one of ours. We need to test the ICBM's any way. This will (1)reduce our nuclear armament like obama wants, (2)solve the little iranian dictator problem, (3) dissuade the world's other two-bit dictators from acting stupid.(4) Restore America to dominance as a superpower to not be trifled with.
But state media said only a firecracker had been set off by an young man excited to see the president and a police chief called news of an attack a "big lie" spread by foreign media.
Then, the young man was carted off to Evin Prison for "interrogation", lashing, and eventual stoning.
Did you see the huge amount of smoke let off by the "firecracker". Puts an M80 to shame!! Where can we get those? Oh yeah, it's called an IED.
Wolfchadd: Off topic as this is about Ahmedan@!$%#, but as long as you brought it up, I much prefer "NO" to what has transpired in Washington over the past 1 1/2 years. Would you like us all to be "yes" men? Not going to happen.
Now that man has a big bullseye on hi chest alot of the world don't like him the liberials and conservitves in his own country don't like him and if I remember correctly right after he got elected even the main religous person there ( not even going to try and spell that name) took awhile to give him the nod. Mabee he will get hint and step down.
Too bad the smirking little basta*d didn't at least catch a some shrapnel, but it's good he got a taste of the terror he so willingly exports around the world.
Boogyman?? Are you implying that you support this whackjob along with jihadists?? I certainly hope not. This man is more than a menace. He has the makings for another Hitler...minus the oratory skills.
For something that was supposedly a firecracker, there sure seems to be a lot of panic shown in the photos. The sooner that regime is taken out, the better off the world will be. This is a PERFECT example of how political assassination can be a public service.
people of Iran will do what they have to do with or without help of the west .the west does not help them,the east takeing everything away from them.if you do not help Iranian to change this system than this system will come to you.look at around your self,in your city.
Not sure I understand what you are saying. Who's taking things away from Iran? What things are being taken away? What help do they want or need? Just asking so I can learn about it.
Tony- I am not sure if your is a statementis of Iranian self reliance- if it is great.Your last line-look around yourself is kind of odd- is it intended to be a threat?
Maybe it was the US, it wouldn't be unprecedented. The US is engaged in covert operations in Iran right now. Iran has been plagued with terrorist attacks in the past couple of years. President Obama condemns these attacks, most recently the suicide bombing of a mosque, calling them "outrageous terrorist attacks." However, according to renowned investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, Obama was likely among the many Democrats who signed off on Bush's Presidential Findings which authorized funding for the escalation of clandestine activities in Iran. Bush's Findings, approved by a Democratic congress, put money and supplies in the hands of Jundollah, the terrorist group linked to Al-Queda that carries attacks on civilians in Iran.
The US has been down this road before. We have funded known Sunni terrorist organizations (the opposition) as a means to reach short term political goals before. In the 1980's the U.S. engaged in clandestine operations that provided money and arms to the Mujahideen in Afghanistan in order to oust the Soviet backed regime there. It worked so well, after their victory in Afghanistan the Mujahideen morphed into Al-Qaeda and committed the largest terror attack in American history on 911. We are already doing it again in Iran.
If Ahmadinejad were to blame the US for an assassination attempt, it would not be so far off base.
US has covert operations in Iran? Really? You know this because? Or, are you just speculating? As far as an assassination attempt by the US, when/if the US decides to go that way to deal with Ahmadinejad, he will most certainly die.
I provided a link to the article I got my information from, it is from the new yorker but other news sources have run stories on it in the past as well. Take the time to read them, US funding for sects of Al-Qaeda operating against Iran is pretty clearly documented.
He said the "Stupid Zionists" tried to assassinate him. I don't know how to tell this bull horn for the religious clerics of that country this, but if the Mu-sad wanted to assassinate shorty pants, he would already be pushing up sand. They know he just a mouthpiece. He's not important enough for anyone but his own countrymen to kill.
If Israel had done it he would be nothing but a smoking hole in the ground right now. Too Bad. I hope the guys that did it have better luck next time (or take some lessons from the Mossad). Of course, having him roasted over a slow fire has its merits too. I personally don't think that there is anything wrong with he and the ruling clerics that a couple of hundred megatons wouldn't fix.
Mac and Chris, Thanks for the typical bullying, pompous, war mongering post from those who are so proud of the Israeli forces who assassinate aid workers, slaughter women and children in Palestine and hide behind their chemical, biological and nuclear weapons paid for by Uncle Sucker. Why don't you post the date that the American taxpayers can expect to stop providing free health care, housing, defense and subsidized fuel, food and utilities to the Israeli welfare State???
Sources: CRS Report RL33222: U.S. Foreign Aid to Israel, updated Jan. 2, 2008, plus the FY ’08 omnibus appropriations bill, H.R. 2764.
This estimate of total U.S. direct aid to Israel updates the estimate given in the July 2006 issue of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs. It is an estimate because arriving at an exact figure is not possible, since parts of U.S. aid to Israel are a) buried in the budgets of various U.S. agencies, mostly that of the Defense Department (DOD), or b) in a form not easily quantifiable, such as the early disbursement of aid, giving Israel a direct benefit in interest income and the U.S. Treasury a corresponding loss. Given these caveats, our current estimate of cumulative total direct aid to Israel is $113.8554 billion.
It must be emphasized that this analysis is a conservative, defensible accounting of U.S. direct aid to Israel, NOT of Israel’s cost to the U.S. or the American taxpayer, nor of the benefits to Israel of U.S. aid. The distinction is important, because the indirect or consequential costs suffered by the U.S. as a result of its blind support for Israel exceed by many times the substantial amount of direct aid to Israel. (See, for example, the late Thomas R. Stauffer’s article in the June 2003 Washington Report, “The Costs to American Taxpayers of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: $3 Trillion.”)
MarineVet, some people believe having allies in the middle east (Israel) is a good idea. Slaughter woman and childeren in Palestine? Really? How about all the Israelis killed by bombers in buses, and other atroscities by Palestinian radicals? Interesting you left that out of your commnet. Try to be more balanced in your comments.
Oh, and as far as the 'supposed' aid workers, they were invited by both Egypt and Israel to dock and unload their aid, and it would have been delivered to those that needed it. But they declined the invitation, which led to the boarding of the ship. You have a bad habit of leaving out crucial facts in your comments.
The planes flying into the World Trade Center had nothing to do with Israel. Do some research before you post comments. Start by going back to when bin Laden was fighting against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. Then check out when he started al qaeda, and his offer to fight against Iraq when they invaded Kuwait.
There is a very interesting article that you can read about concerning an American relief worker that was murdered when an Israeli bulldozer crushed a house that she was inside of. The Israelis knew full well who she was, and the fact that she was inside at the time. Are you going to support that too?
The Palestinians have been murdering Americans since they bombed TWA Flight 841 in 1974, killing all 88 souls on board!! That was the third incident of Palestinian terrorists targeting U.S. airlines in 5 years, including the attempted destruction of TWA Flight 841 in 1969 and the Dawson's Field incident in 1970 which resulted in the destruction and loss of 4 aircraft, including one of the very first 747's. Go ahead and bring up the 1967 USS Liberty incident again, but at least that was partially the fault of whatever dip$h*t Commander put an unarmed vessel in a war zone!!!
Sorry but I not only don't have a problem when some Hamas or Hezbollah $h*tbag is sent to hunt virgins, but I'll dance a jig when Ahmajimmyjhad gets planted. One last thing,other the FACT that Ahmanutjob supports Palestinian TERROR groups Hezbollah (an Iranian proxy) and Hamas, what does an assassination attempt which was almost certainly carried out by Muslims have to do with Israel ??
You're confused Marine Vet. The flight you're referring to is Pan Am flight 103, a 747 blown up in 1988.
Well, I do not know about all this other stuff, but what do you say we go bomb some brown people. The ISLAMIC JIHADISTS bomb far more "brown people" than we do!! 2/3 of the civilian casualties in Afghanistan and Iraq have been from ISLAMIST actions. We try to avoid killing civilians, the JIHADISTS do it by design!!
Thanks for the equally pompous and sanctimonious response including your half truths and blatant omissions. Palestinians have been murdering innocent people since 1951 when the Arab League declared that Israel "did not have a right to exist" and they, as a unified group would do everything possible to distroy the nation of Israel. Maybe you forgot that (or intentionally left it out)?
Maybe you forgot (or aren't old enough to remember) about the 1972 Murder by your beloved Palestinian terrorist of the Olympic Athletes. What about the Maalot Massacre in 1974 or the airline hijackings through out the 70's? How about the Achille Lauro in 1985 when an old man in a wheelchair was shot and thrown over the side? I guess you're saying that the PFLP, PELPGC, and Black September are just all Peaches and Cream; is that the case??
Maybe you forgot about the Marine Barracks in Beirut in 1983; I didn't!I lost Brother Marines in that one. I PERSONALLY KNEW some of those Marines killed by those Miserable Little Bastards that you defend. No need to look close for the tear for the Palestinian terrorist here, you won't find one. I tooserved in the Marine Corps (3rd Marines in Vietnam); this is the first time I've ever heard a Marine defend and sympathizes with anyone that did something like this to Brother Marines. maybe the Corps has changed since I got out ... Pitty!
When 9/11 occurred, a Dallas TV Station caught Palestinians in Dallas dancing and celebrating the fall of the WTC. NBC News also had pictures of people in the camps in Palestine celebrating the 9/11 Terrorist attacks. I knew people that died in the 9/11 attacks too. Tell me why I should feel anything but contempt for the SOB's! I'm Listening!
If the Palestinians will put down their weapons, quit lobbing rockets into Israel and stop their terrorist attacks, maybe I'd feel a little sorry for them. But they don't seem to want to do that. If they continue their exportation of terror to the world because "they Can", I will fell no sympathy for them at all.
Should one of terrorist that you seem to support were to decide to become a "Not so Smart Bomb" here in the US, My feelings will get decidedly less sympathetic toward them. Should they go "really over the edge" and use something Nuclear (dirty Bomb or something larger from Iran), my approach will then take on the philosophy of Arnaul Amalric toward the Cathars in 1209.
Well, it's too bad his own people want him dead ,most likely because he was educated in the United States. And is more like the greedy westener business people here ,who treat people like slaves. I think most poor and middle class people are tired of being slave to the rich.
I say,go for it, kill the rich scum, That treat the people of this world like their less than human.
Patrick, the Iranian regime is hardly a champion of the poor. It oppresses rich and poor alike. How can you feel any sympathy for an authoritarian reactionary? Is his hatred of the U.S. enough to make him your friend?
Every Iranian who protested the 2009 elections he stole, any Sunni Muslim extremist. any Israeli extremist, and very likely a few other assorted nuts I haven't thought of yet!!
Could'nt happen to a better dirtbag dictator... oh wait Kim Jong Il of NK... at least that old bastard knows enough not to go out in public. Other posters are right, if it had been Mossad he'd be dead. Iran needs some new patriots to fix the damage done to their country since 1979.
So they are saying it wasn't a grenade, it was a single firecracker someone in the crowd threw to celebrate the President??? It he going to have a new suit of invisible cloths tailored just for him next. I knew denial flowed through Egypt, but apparently, there's a branch in Iran, too.
Somebody needs to wack ol' Uwantaknobbyjob... or at least get him out of the way... It'll happen sooner or later. I don't think "Average Joe" over there is going to buy into the fanatical, fundamentalist BS forever. An upheaval of mammoth proportions is coming to Iran I think.
Many of the ayatollahs behind the scenes - the ones who actually run the country of which Ahmadinejad is the figurehead leader - are a good deal more radical than he is. If he is ever removed, violently or otherwise, it will be by them.
F*ck him, and every other hatemongering a**hole in that part of the world (Jew or Muslim). It's the "smelly crotch of the planet" where the bottomless pit from the Book of Revelation clearly resides.
damm!
Were there any Mossad assassins, with Australian passports, paid for by the U.S. taxpayers, in that crowd??????
Of Course they will deny this happened ---but all I have to say is this----SOMEONE really SCREWED UP---they MISSED!!!
NOW a Barrett at a mile away ---would be a different story---wonder If I could ----naw Israel has some GOOD shooters to!!
If someone killed him, he woud only be replaced by another puppet for radical Islam.
It's a safe bet that Obama wasn't behind this. If he were, the bomb would have talked and talked and talked first, then shook a lot before making a pooping sound instead of an explosion of any kind.
Next time perhaps whomever tried this stunt will purchase their explosives from somewhere besides Discount Explosives Are US" To bad the CIA didn't have a team in the area. From the looks of the photo it would have been a perfect opportunity for a sniper. With the apparent chaos and crowds a good sniper from a half mile away or so could have taken this A-hole out and got away unnoticed.

Two videos of idiots blowing up something that would make the amount of smoke in that picture.
Nope.
If they were Mossad they wouldn't have missed!
Hopefully they will use the Zionists next time-- and get the job done right-- the Iranian people would be grateful!
Ernie----- Too bad there wasn't some "weapons of mass destruction" in his car then maybe the CIA would found their mark. If you can dodge a shoe you can dodge a bomb.
Too bad that he will haul in a number of innocent people who "in his paranoia" had something to do with this and they will be executed with a trial, him being the judge. The numbers could range from 30 to 30,000. It will be in the "best interest of the country."
I'm sorry this attempt didn't work.

It's also a safe bet that if would have done it it would have detonated in your hands, because of all of your chronic whining.

Practice makes perfect. Firecrackers? lol. That's one way to wipe the arrogant smirk off his ugly face. Better luck next time, guys!
Ernie: Your first two sentences were classic. Sorry, Joe Veteran.
Damn it I was hoping he got snuffed out 8( Ohh well we can only hope for a miracle.
Sorry we missed you, Ahmaladingdong. We'll be seeing you again real soon!!!
Since these nut jobs in Tehran want a nuke so bad, let's deliver one of ours. We need to test the ICBM's any way. This will (1)reduce our nuclear armament like obama wants, (2)solve the little iranian dictator problem, (3) dissuade the world's other two-bit dictators from acting stupid.(4) Restore America to dominance as a superpower to not be trifled with.
But state media said only a firecracker had been set off by an young man excited to see the president and a police chief called news of an attack a "big lie" spread by foreign media.
Then, the young man was carted off to Evin Prison for "interrogation", lashing, and eventual stoning.
Did you see the huge amount of smoke let off by the "firecracker". Puts an M80 to shame!! Where can we get those? Oh yeah, it's called an IED.
Hey Ernie, where's bin Laden? Bush didn't talk much . . .he didn't do a thing. Just like the GOP in Congress.
My opinion.....................it was staged by him otherwise more damage would have been done.
If Mossad had been involved he would be dead or at least seriously injured.
So true. How bout some solutions Ernie instead of the constant BS. All i hear from you group are complaints and NO!

Too bad the smirking little basta*d didn't at least catch a some shrapnel, but it's good he got a taste of the terror he so willingly exports around the world.
He's no boogeyman. He's a menace to civilization. If it was an assassination attempt, I hope they keep trying.
They only have to get it right once!
Bummer, I am hoping this was their dress rehersal.
Yup-- and that would include the Iranians as well-- also the fact that the plot failed is sad for them!
Boogyman?? Are you implying that you support this whackjob along with jihadists?? I certainly hope not. This man is more than a menace. He has the makings for another Hitler...minus the oratory skills.

That was a Libyan, Fred. The follow up has been all over the news, for the past two weeks, because BP was involved in the Libyans release from prison.
Just another ignorant rant from a Zionist pimp who wants to screw the Arabs and the American taxpayer for all the loot he can carry.
Well, I do not know about all this other stuff, but what do you say we go bomb some brown people?

Maybe you forgot (or aren't old enough to remember) about the 1972 Murder by your beloved Palestinian terrorist of the Olympic Athletes. What about the Maalot Massacre in 1974 or the airline hijackings through out the 70's? How about the Achille Lauro in 1985 when an old man in a wheelchair was shot and thrown over the side? I guess you're saying that the PFLP, PELPGC, and Black September are just all Peaches and Cream; is that the case??
Maybe you forgot about the Marine Barracks in Beirut in 1983; I didn't!I lost Brother Marines in that one. I PERSONALLY KNEW some of those Marines killed by those Miserable Little Bastards that you defend. No need to look close for the tear for the Palestinian terrorist here, you won't find one. I tooserved in the Marine Corps (3rd Marines in Vietnam); this is the first time I've ever heard a Marine defend and sympathizes with anyone that did something like this to Brother Marines. maybe the Corps has changed since I got out ... Pitty!
When 9/11 occurred, a Dallas TV Station caught Palestinians in Dallas dancing and celebrating the fall of the WTC. NBC News also had pictures of people in the camps in Palestine celebrating the 9/11 Terrorist attacks. I knew people that died in the 9/11 attacks too. Tell me why I should feel anything but contempt for the SOB's! I'm Listening!
If the Palestinians will put down their weapons, quit lobbing rockets into Israel and stop their terrorist attacks, maybe I'd feel a little sorry for them. But they don't seem to want to do that. If they continue their exportation of terror to the world because "they Can", I will fell no sympathy for them at all.
Should one of terrorist that you seem to support were to decide to become a "Not so Smart Bomb" here in the US, My feelings will get decidedly less sympathetic toward them. Should they go "really over the edge" and use something Nuclear (dirty Bomb or something larger from Iran), my approach will then take on the philosophy of Arnaul Amalric toward the Cathars in 1209.

Well, it's too bad his own people want him dead ,most likely because he was educated in the United States. And is more like the greedy westener business people here ,who treat people like slaves. I think most poor and middle class people are tired of being slave to the rich.
I say,go for it, kill the rich scum, That treat the people of this world like their less than human.
Patrick, the Iranian regime is hardly a champion of the poor. It oppresses rich and poor alike. How can you feel any sympathy for an authoritarian reactionary? Is his hatred of the U.S. enough to make him your friend?
Patrick your a moron, clear for everyone to see. By the way, its 'Westerner' not 'westener'.
Maybe if they could get more for their oil they could afford to hire a few body doubles. There's a job they would be lining up to get!!
Doesn't pay much but the retirement plan is great. Too bad you will never get to take advantage of it.
Mahmoud? Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?? Is that you posting here??
By the way DL328785, it's you're not your and it's not its.
Nope it wasn't us or he'd be gone!
Lots of smoke?
awwwwww
He said it was a firecracker....who would want to kill him?
Every Iranian who protested the 2009 elections he stole, any Sunni Muslim extremist. any Israeli extremist, and very likely a few other assorted nuts I haven't thought of yet!!
Fred....hello....it was a joke!
Just stating the obvious.
Could'nt happen to a better dirtbag dictator... oh wait Kim Jong Il of NK... at least that old bastard knows enough not to go out in public. Other posters are right, if it had been Mossad he'd be dead. Iran needs some new patriots to fix the damage done to their country since 1979.
Maybe Kim Jong was trying to get his attention?
No,
He's an ally.
If it was an attack too bad it failed.
he will say the us and isreal did it nows are chance to kick his butt back to the stone age
Citing a source within the president's office, the broadcaster said "no such attack took place."
Such a pity. A lost opportunity to send him to Allah.
So they are saying it wasn't a grenade, it was a single firecracker someone in the crowd threw to celebrate the President??? It he going to have a new suit of invisible cloths tailored just for him next. I knew denial flowed through Egypt, but apparently, there's a branch in Iran, too.
Somebody needs to wack ol' Uwantaknobbyjob... or at least get him out of the way... It'll happen sooner or later. I don't think "Average Joe" over there is going to buy into the fanatical, fundamentalist BS forever. An upheaval of mammoth proportions is coming to Iran I think.
Many of the ayatollahs behind the scenes - the ones who actually run the country of which Ahmadinejad is the figurehead leader - are a good deal more radical than he is. If he is ever removed, violently or otherwise, it will be by them.
That would be such a shame if the little terrorist sympathizer were to get taken out by an act of terrorism. Poetic justice
I hope no one was seriously hurt.
Shucky darn, they missed! Well, maybe next time!
F*ck him, and every other hatemongering a**hole in that part of the world (Jew or Muslim). It's the "smelly crotch of the planet" where the bottomless pit from the Book of Revelation clearly resides.
#1-gimme a break, cuz I'm workin' way too hard
#2-gimme a drink, cuz I need one
#3-WELL SAID!
Probably just a test.
A firecracker? Maybe some mullah's brain nearby blew up!
