Iran Shows Off Mass Graves Prepared For "Aggressors"

A video being hosted by Iranian FarsNews Agency (google translated here) shows mass graves that have been dug in the province of Khuzestan (located closest to Iraq and Kuwait) that are destined for Iranian "aggressors." It appears Iran is actively preparing, at least in the form of TV propaganda, for what at least from its own perspective, is response to an invasion. If any of our readers have a better proficiency with Farsi, we would be curious to understand what the Imam says in the beginning of the video, although based on the context we have a vague idea.

That's nice, but I think most people's definition of Hell is that of a place subterranean, with people being tortured for their various sins and where "global warming" is a fact (basically Dante's Inferno). And don't forget the pointy-tailed devil prancing about! (not so Dante's Inferno-ish)

But I'm not sure why I'm even bothering to answer you, since I don't believe in any of that claptrap and you quoting biblical verses at me is just a complete waste of breath.

That's how democracy works; that's why democracy is a tragic farce, and one of the worst forms of government man has ever conceived.

It is disturbing and disgusting to hear some here claim some special concern for American treasure and blood because it may be used in defense of Israel. -- francismarion

Non-impressive, ineffectual, and inelegant.  As a matter of fact, it is self-serving.  It is just me, me, me—which marks you not as an Israel-firster Baptist but as a Zionist Jew.

And speaking of America’s commitment to its allies, I’ve always been somewhat surprised that its ally Israel was not included in the war to kill a million Iraqis for the sake of Israel with Iraqi oil pipelines to be directed into Israel; of the 49 countries in the “Coalition of the Willing” for the cause, Israel was not included in the willing to die:

Countries which have sent "advisors,” provide technical expertise, but are not listed in the "Coalition of the Willing" | SourceWatch

·         Israel – Israel has provided technical support (advisors), interrogators, and weapon systems. However, strenuous efforts are made to deny its participation. NB: The main beneficiary of the US-Iraq war is not sending any troops to Iraq; currently "our aircraft carrier in the Middle East" (as president Johnson referred to Israel) just provides the cheerleading.

The fat white finger does wag...eh. Tell that to the millions that have died, just so corpricrats can extract others wealth.

Just stumbled across this... seems kinda relevant:

Turning and turning in the widening gyre

The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: somewhere in sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man,
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indignant desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?

The Second Coming - Yeats.

Grass
 
PILE the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo.     
Shovel them under and let me work—     
            I am the grass; I cover all.     
 
And pile them high at Gettysburg     
And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun.
Shovel them under and let me work.     
Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:     
            What place is this?     
            Where are we now?     
 
            I am the grass.
            Let me work.

Um, okay. How about US retaliates with a video showing all their FEMA camps. Oh, wait, those are for different purposes.

The bottom line is that this is just one chapter in the sad tale of our demise. I would say that if I were to go out and ask a simple set of say 100 questions to people on deficit levels, where the money goes, have you ever written your Congressman, what are 10 smart things government ought to do, how much overall debt we are in the red on, how many zeros make up a trillion, what do think the chances of getting your SS check when you are 75 are or even who your reps are in Washington, whatthe data would be disgusting. Just flip through the channels - the idiocy is stunning. I am heading out, buying the farm, gold coins and guns. There is enough evidence above clearly indicating that my years of paying taxes are being pissed on. Religion ? Who gives a fuck about it - it has always been about control and wars. Let them destruct each other including the freak so called Christians and... well get it out of their system for good. Fuck em. Palin is coming, giving a big boost to the demise, so I figure we have very little time...
