Iran’s leader challenges Europe to take back Jews in Israel

Is anyone a little concerned about Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad? Some of the things he says combined with his nuclear program in my opinion is definate reason for concern. However, I don’t think those in the USA are paying a lot of attention. Europe sure seems attentive, though.

Ahmadinejad provoked an international outcries last year when he said Israel should be “wiped out” and that the Nazi Holocaust against Jews in World War II was a “myth.”

With some of the provactive things he says, one only wonders what’s next. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, said this recently, “Well he is certainly an unusual one for president. And yes, I think he’s dangerous. It’s dangerous because these are thoughts and words that have consequences.”

With Iran now moving its money out of Europe in a precautionary move, one thinks these “consequences’” might not be too far away.

Just as the price of gas stabalizes here in the U.S., I’ve got to wonder for how long with this new set of issues in yet another Middle East with Oil Country.
