Clinton exchanges threats with Iranian cleric

Iranian cleric responds to Clinton's warning with a warning of his own

Saturday May 3rd, 2008

Responding to Hillary Clinton's warning in which she stated that if she was the President, and if Iran launched a nuclear attack on Israel, she would attack Iran, Tehran responded in kind. Iranian cleric and Assembly of Experts member Ahmed Khatami warned Clinton that Iran would retaliate.

Transcript:

Iran’s response to Senator Clinton’s remarks in which she issued a severe warning to Iran in the event that it attacked Israel came out of Tehran today. Last month the Democratic presidential hopeful said:

SOUNDBITE: Hillary Clinton

1. Another threat from Iran?

Which is it this time...."Israel should be wiped off the face of the Earth" "The infadel America should be wiped off the face of the Earth" "The Satanic Jews started the Holocaust themselves" or "The American Satanic Jews started the Holocaust themselves" Did I leave any out?

5. No yours........the guy is a nutball

Several Dems have said they would hot hesitate to strike Iran if Iran attacked Israel. The fact that Clinton said it is the only reason the nutball responded........read his last statement about "a woman president."

7. After she said she could Obliterate Iran (BTW That means every man woman and Child)

I could care less about his sexist remark.

No they are angry because they feel threatened outside of normal MAD measures. A strike does not mean Obliterate it means militarily retaliate.

I do not like the leader of Iran either but this crap is leading towards a stance of war and if you find that acceptable to aid Clinton then you need help in my view.

And if you suddenly are thinking about moaning about "Oh they are that way because she is a woman" Well the job of the president is to reason with people that do not think like us. So your point is instantly invalid. There is no entitlement.

6. Wonderful.

I see she's well on her way to correcting the past 8 years of horribly embarrassing foreign policy...
