Beware, the silken words of madmen

Recently the people of the United States recieved a letter from Dr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of the Islamic Republic of Iran. I urge any who have not read this document, to do so at once. www.uncommonthought.com is one of a few places where it can be found, read and printed.
As an American, a Christian, and a basically educated man, I am both afraid and concerned over the content of President Ahmadinejads` message. I am struck by the sophisticated presentation of his ideas, and the reasonableness of the mans suggestions, the smooth sincerity of his every word. My fear is not so much of him, but of the weak minded and dissolusioned men and women in our own nation that so easily fall prey to anything well packaged, pleasing to the eye, and tickelish to the ear.
Dr. Ahmadinejad speaks often of `God`. Even more of Divinity and spirituality, on the surface he seems a godly man. The cadance and soothing tone belie a terrifying truth. The god of this man is not the God of the Bible, but a god of prophets that command beliefe in him or death. Deny what you will, this is a basic tenant of the Muslim faith.
Iran is a theocratic dictatorship, ruled by fear and oppression like any other country where beliefs are told you. Free speech and practice of worship is not an option there, and if you refuse to adhere arrest, imprisonment and death are surely your lot. But, none of this is in the well crafted letter, as truth would spoil the illusion of its` intent. Though one point is completely evident , the thinly veiled hatred of the Jewish people cannot be contained. Nor will it be entirely lost on even the slightly gullible readers, as it makes them squirm just a little uncomfortably in their comfortable chairs.
This subtle servent of ill will would have us believe we share a common intrest in peace, as he appeals to the mothers and families of our servicemen and women in Iraq to call their children home. While with the other hand he doles out vast amounts of weapons and wealth to insurgents to kill and mutilate those same children in the streets of Bagdad.
Skillfully we are demonized to the world for the wrongful imprisonment and degrading of jihadists in the course of defence of our nations` security, yet those who are ultimately behind the kidnapping of journalists, aid workers, and engineers and their recorded and televised torture and beheadings are never mentioned. With a mouth open on both sides the Iranian president condemns terrorism on the right, while supporting Sryia on the left.
Gently he concerns himself with our accounts in Iraq, lightly salting the wound he hopes so soon to fully infect. President Ahmadinejad wrings blood caked hands in anticipation of our militarys` departure, eger to aquire the resorces of oil and bodies to fund and fuel a coming war he will wage first against the Jew, then the western world. This war is not an idle threat, it was his word.
Imperialism, fascism, and communism have all bred their cataclysms, some violent and genocidal, others cold and suffocating. Yet they will have been as a cloud passing before the sun when compared to the coming atrocities that loom large before the world today, if we continue to stumble forward with our eyes closed and our ears open to the silken words of madmen.
