Adolph Hitler's Lesson -- What Are We Waiting for with Iran?

Note to correspondents in response to questions about remarks by the Vice-President of Iran

New York, 27 June 2012
In response to questions about remarks by the Vice-President of Iran, the Spokesperson has the following to say:
"The Secretary-General has on many occasions called on Iranian officials to refrain from these kinds of anti-Semitic statements. He does so again in response to these latest reported comments. He believes it is the responsibility of leaders to promote harmony and understanding and he deeply regrets expressions of hatred and religious intolerance."

What did the Vice President of Iran say to a UN Forum on the illegal drug trade?  http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/27/world/middleeast/irans-vice-president-rahimi-makes-anti-semitic-speech.html?_r=2&ref=world
" Iran’s vice president delivered a baldly anti-Semitic speech on Tuesday at an international antidrug conference here, saying that the Talmud, a central text of Judaism, was responsible for the spread of illegal drugs around the world"

"Mr. Rahimi, second in line to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said the Talmud teaches to “destroy everyone who opposes the Jews.”
"The “Zionists” are in firm control of the illegal drug trade, Mr. Rahimi said, asking foreign dignitaries to research his claims."
" A European diplomat said afterward: “This was definitely one of the worst speeches I have heard in my life. My gut reaction was: why are we supporting any cooperation with these people?”"

Indeed, WHY?????

Is Obama any more than Neville Chamberlain on the eve of Munich? If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a duck. Take the Iranians at their word, as we should have taken Hitler at his, and stop trying to explain their logic, as we did for Hitler. They have called for the destruction of Israel, are bent on worldwide Shiite revolution (by their own words)  and control of the Middle East, and by virtually every independent account, are very far along on developing a nuclear weapons capability. What are we waiting for?
