AHMADINIJAD - NEBISH, SHMO, OR INTERNATIONAL MEGASHMUCK?

HE LOOKS SO HARMLESS, LIKE A MEXICAN WETBACK LOOKING FOR A JOB AS A DOMESTIC SERVANT. HIS SPEECH IS SO PLAUSIBLE; HE SAYS HIS NATION IRAN DEFIES THE WESTERN WORLD IN DEVELOPING ADVANCED NUCLEAR CAPABILITIES ONLY IN ORDER TO FURTHER SCIENCE AND MEDICINE, THAT THE NUCLEAR NONPROLIFERATION PROBLEM HAS SOURCE IN THOSE NATIONS ALREADY THREATENING THE WORLD WITH NUCLEAR POWER, E.G. THE U.S.A.

(note: The terms "nebish", "shmo", "megashmuck", and "wetback" are made use of here for their colloquial character in context, not as a habit of speech.)

Yet it is precisely his appearance that is so dangerous. "Nebish" and "Shmo" are Yiddish terms for someone who is basically helpless and clueless; and "wetback" is American slang referring to a Mexican illegally in the USA, perhaps having had to swim across a border river to get into the USA. Often the "media is the message", to quote Marshall McLuhan. All of these terms can be used condescendingly and in fact are most often used in this way. Whether or not these terms are used condescendingly the person referred to is often innocent in appearance and inspiring to superiors of help and assistance. It is this innocent plausability that makes Ahmadinijad so dangerous.

Ahmadinijad is in fact an international megashmuck. I have taken the liberty to combine the greek prefix "mega-" with the Yiddish word "shmuck"; the meaning should be immediately clear, that he is not just an ordinary "prick"; he is a "megaprick" of international consequence. To the Third World Nations of the UN he is today's "hero" for standing up to the West. His appearance of capable defiance gives the "have not" nations someone to look up to in their jealousy and hatred of the West. In that context these Third World nations of shmos and nebishes may do great harm to themselves and to the world via their misplaced support of Ahmadinijad in whom they believe they see themselves. The West cannot afford to be swayed by demeanor nor plausibility of Ahmadinijad's message on nuclear proliferation given yesterday at the UN.

Iran is the Shia side of the Muslim coin pretending to be moderate, even as Egypt and Turkey pretend to be moderate on the Sunni side of the Muslim coin. Together they call for Israel to be exposed as a nuclear nation that must give up it's nuclear capabilities in order to assure nuclear non-proliferation in the Middle East. This is as much a cock and bull story as is the resistance to Obama in the USA on the basis of his "socialism" -- not his race. This Blog has yet to see anything to find joy in with respect to Obama and his administration. Yet, the analogy to Israel holds up quite ironically. Israel is the "nigger" in the Middle East. The Muslims, like foxes pretending to be chickens, say, "Come on out and play. We won't hurt you. We are chickens just like you are. You don't need those nukes. You should give them up. Those things are dangerous and you are only chickens. Those things are dangerous in your hands. Better yet, give them to us. There are many more of us than of you. Let us protect you. You can trust us...."

Today is Day 1430 in the captivity of the soul of Gilad Shalit.
