Obama does not want to wake up one day and smell a burning Iran

Hopefully Kosher newspaper Haaretz reports that President Obama has told Israeli PM Netanyahu that he would consider a surprise attack by Israel on Iran a really bad belated inauguration gift. And if there is one thing Obama knows, besides knowing everything about everything else, it's about bad gifts.

U.S. President Barack Obama has sent a message to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanding that Israel not surprise the U.S. with an Israeli military operation against Iran. The message was conveyed by a senior American official who met in Israel with Netanyahu, ministers and other senior officials. Earlier, Netanyahu's envoy visited Washington and met with National Security Adviser James Jones and with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and discussed the dialogue Obama has initiated with Tehran.

In fact Obama was so concerned that Israel would sneak up on Iran and waterboard it Dick Cheney style that he couldn't even wait till Monday, the day he is actually scheduled to meet the Israeli Premier.

Thankfully, there is nothing going on this week which might freshen some old wounds.

OH NO! I think I spoke a little too soon.

But I'm sure there is nothing to worry about. After all, the people of the middle east are famous for their restraint, aren't they?

 

 

p.s. Can you twitter from inside a home-made bunker?

UN Anti-Racism conference ruined by Racism

The U.N conference on racism was doomed from the start. Not only were a few countries, including the US, Italy Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Poland and Germany boycotting it, the remaining delegates from the EU and Britain threatened to walk out if the forum was used for hate speech against Israel.

That's exactly what happened.

 

Can someone tell me who in their right mind would invite Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to a racism conference?

Was the UN trying to be ironical?

Sure racism is a serious issue and it warrants discussion, but letting Ahmadinjad loose on the floor is completely the opposite way to go. It's like asking Micheal Jackson to address a Protect-your-child conference or asking Elizabeth Taylor to address a townhall where she answers questions about how to make a marriage last forever or asking Lindsay Lohan to enlist seven steps on how to keep your shit together or getting Paris Hilton to write a whitepapper on the ways to prevent STDs.

This guy denies the holocaust. Something which is historical fact. Just because some people who wrote fake holocaust memoirs which Oprah selected for her book club doesn't change history. This guy held a hold conference in Iran to deny the holocaust. Even Hitler's like "Dude . . . that's a bit too much". He also said that Iran has no homosexuals. Yes, that's because in Iran homosexuality is punishable by a death sentence. In fact, the government of Iran is so scared of "the gay" that they issued a fatwa against Cher.

If Mr Nutjob thinks that he's doing Iran a favour by making it sound like the most racist place in the world (killer slogan to increase tourism, by the way), then I think he celebrated 4/20 a little too hard.

Gaza: It's deja vu all over again

The situation at Gaza has begun to worsen day by day. And since no one wants to give peace a chance, we at Overated Outcast gave various individuals and entities a chance to provide a solution to this huge humanitarian crisis.

The Hillary Clinton Solution: Israel and Palestine become the 51st and 52nd states of the United States of America. Then they award all their delgates to Hillary, who then goes to the supreme court to recall Obama and voila, say halo to Madam President Clinton.

The Sarah Palin solution (in her own words): Oh, gosh darnit you people. Say it isn't so. Now listen here. Y'all stop fighting and accept Jesus Christ as your lord and saviour. And everything will just be a-okay. You betcha!! Doggone it.

The Asif Ali Zardari solution: War? There is no war. It's just that a single poor Israeli solider was caught in the cross fire between two farmers who were cheating on each others goats. Nothing major. It's all good. The Hamas led Palestine government has nothing to do with it. It's just it's militant arm, a totally non-state actor, which is causing all the rukus. No war. Everything is fine. Couldn't be better.

The Nicolas Sarkozy solution: Why don't ze all of you get a haut wife like I did and have sex weed her ze whole day long?

The Satyam solution: Convince the Hamas leaders that due to the wonders of modern techlogy, you have been able to build more land beyond the gaza strip. And that you would hand it over to them for a token sum of $1 billion. Once you have all their money, leave immediately and let the Israelis handle all the questions.

The Afganistan solution: You know what will bring peace to gaza and the rest of the world? Our all new bitchin Nan. It's yummy stuffing consists of half of the choicest goat's balls and half of the head of an infidel. It's full of energy and will help you beat your wife the whole day long. Please note that we do weddings and Burqa parties. Contact your nearest Taliban office.

The Oprah solution: Less killing and more hugging people. And everybody gets their bombshelled house redone by Nate Berkus. And a free copy of the next fraud author we pick for the Oprah book club.

The Deve Gowda solution: Why don't we all retrace our steps back to our beds & hammocks and just take a nap? Anyone? No? Just hear me talk for a few minutes. You'll enter a self induced coma. Trust me.

The Dick Cheney solution: Hey, why are you girls fighting each other? You do know you got no oil, right?

The Guns N Roses solution: Dunno about that right now, but would come up with a solution within the next eighteen years. P.S. Need some cocaine, ASAP.

The Armageddon solution: Do whatever you're doing right now, and when you finally end up killing each other, Iran can use Gaza as a concert venue.
