So, they're at it again.
Those crazy Iranians have apparently developed a missle which might be able to reach Israel.
Excerpt from The Times:
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad claimed today that Iran has successfully test fired a new medium-range missile capable of striking as far as Israel or southern Europe.
Benjamin Netayahu, the new Israeli Prime Minister, has said that Iran’s missile technology combined with its nuclear programme pose the greatest threat the Jewish state has faced since its creation in 1948.
Why, oh why, does Iran think it has A) the right; B) the need; and C) the justification to make missle capable of striking Israel?
Oh that's right - because Iran is a MUSLIM COUNTRY and all Muslims really care about is blowing up the Jews, oppressing women and producing oil.
Sorry, that's not quite true of all Muslim countries; I hear that in Saudi Arabaia, women can't do shit (can't even do A shit) without having their father/brother/husband give expressed written consent (nope, implied oral consent doesn't cut it).
And is Pakistan, I don't think women have to cover up. Actually, they don't in Iran either.
But still, Iran wants to destroy Israel for no better reason than: It's Jewish.
Israel didn't steal Iran's girlfriend, Israel didn't nark on Iran when Iran broke Mrs Johnson's windown whilst playing football and Israel didn't offer cut-price nosejobs to the thousand's of big nosed Iranian women, thus depriving Iran's own cut-price plastic surgeons of valuable business.
Nope, it's a simple matter of religions.
Not eating pork/bacon/ham VS not eating pork/bacon/ham.
Celebrating adolescence with a big party VS being married by age 12.
Having an alphabet which looks like the top of a Squiggletop VS having an alphabet which looks like the top of a Squiggletop.
Wandering 40 years through the desert VS still living in the desert.
One God, all powerful and all knowing VS one God, and his sidekick, Muhammed
Wow, the similarities are there, that's for sure.
So why then do we not hear Israel plotting the downfall of the Muslim world?
Sure, Israel is just one country, and Iran might be able to get some help from Syria, Jordan and possibly Lebanon. Even the dirty Ruski's might lend a hand, but that'd probably only be to piss off the Yanks.
But Israel has the trump card: The West.
Yes, the glorious nations of Great Britain, the US, Canada (maybe) and those crazy "we love a good fight, but only if you're not German, and do you remember Napolean who almost conquered Europe?" French.
At the end of the day, if Islam didn't exist, everyone would be a lot happier. The world would be a more peaceful place.
Hey Muslims, just build a bridge and get over it.
God isn't real.
And surely the fact that there are at least 5 major world religions, all with different deity's, proves that no religion (no matter how wrong) has the right to claim their's is the "true faith".
If there was one true God, the whole world would follow it.
Also, why is that Muslims feel the need to kill non-Muslims? Why do Christian's feel the need to protest outside abortion centres?
Why don't we ever hear about crazy Jews doing anything? Because the Jews aren't crazy.
They have their beliefs, but they don't force them onto anyone else.
How many other religions can claim the same?
Only one. The Buddhists.

As the dreaded month of Movember draws ever nearer, it seems as good a time as any to reflect on the current crisis facing the world.
Sure, economies everywhere are crashing. The war in Iraq is still costing millions every day. Liverpool sit atop the English Premier League. All terrible, terrible things indeed.
However, I refer to that "other" important event (and to a lesser extent, a slight less important (but never-the-less topical) event): The US General Election (and also the New Zealand General Election).
That's right: AMERICA DECIDES.
Potentially leaving the fate of the Free World in the hands of some 300 million Yanks, (who have given us such greats as Cheese-Wizz in a Can, World Series of baseball and George W. "Dubya" Bush( and countless illegal Mexican's who managed to cross the border and will probably, somehow, figure out how to vote.
All bets seem to be off, as Paddy Power (Irish bookies, and Max Power's brother) have already paid out on bets for people who picked Barrack Obama would win the Presidency.
NOTE: This has NOT actually happened yet.
So, is the US, and more importantly the world, ready for Obama to lead? Sure, no person with common sense would wnt McCain/Palin in the White House for the next 4 years.
Sarah Palin, despite her "kinda like an older, slightly less attractive Tina Fey" looks and knowledge of automatic weapons, believes dinosaurs only roamed the Earth 4000 years ago! Right around the time the Egyptians were crusing down the Nile in their crocodile mobiles. Is she mad? No, she's a Christian. And looks what the last 8 years of Bible-bashing, gun-crazy, blow-them-all-to-hell politics have done.
F*ck all, thats what.
Sarah Palin's 17 year old daughter Bristol (named after, I dunno, Palin's favourite southwestern UK city?) is knocked up. At 17! By a guy called Levi! Who happily states he is a redneck (not a crime on it's own, but with compelling evidence a crime non-the-less). Apparently they're getting married, which is nice, but considering their age they won't even be able to drink at their wedding. Shame!
I hear people saying "Oh, you can't judge a parent on the mistakes their kids make."
Er, well, yeah you can! I look at a pregnant 17 year old and think "Damn, what a slut! Bet your mum's a skank too! What's her number?"
Can you honestly look at Sarah Palin and think she's done a good job as a mom when her barely legal daughter is ready to pop a sprog??? No, you can't.
And then there's John "old enough to remember when George Washington was knee high to a grasshopper" McCain, from the sandy state of Arizona.
McCain is like 100 or something, and spent most of the Vietnam War in a POW camp, having his ribs broken and eating other inmate's poo.
Now, I feel sorry he had to endure such treatment, which was so bad he can no longer lift his arms above his head.
But is this the kind of man who should be entrusted with the keys to America's 532 nuclear warheads? You know he's still pissed about what Charlie Kong did to him - I bet Vietnam get's a rocket up the arse should he get in. Plus, any President who can't throw a ball properly can't be trusted to run a country properly either.
Now, don't assume that because I dislike McCain & Palin, that I support Obama. Personally, Hillary was my choice and I think she'd have done a good job.
However, Obama is less crazy than the other 2, so he gets my vote. I know it's only a metaphorical vote, but that brings me to my next point; the world as a whole should have some say as to who gets elected. After all, like it or not, we'll be dealing with the decisions made by the new President for the next 4 years.
So, my advice is this: vote Obama, or somehow vote Hillary.
