Congratulations, America! You decided to let a man into your country who doesn’t like you at all. In fact, you only let him in to Manhattan to talk to the students of the Columbia University and to the General Assembly at the UN. Although this is Ahmedinejad’s third visit to the U.S. since he has been in office, this time his visa is valid only in Manhattan. He wanted to pay tribute at Ground Zero, but his request to go there was denied.
BUDAPEST - I am sorry to admit it, but Hungarians don’t pay any attention. Hungarians are dumb sometimes, but they’re not numb enough to listen to President Bush’s speeches. I hope my statement is not too offensive to Americans – though even if it is, that doesn’t mean it’s not correct.
How in the name of God (Allah, Buddha, Moses, Jehovah) would I know from here the likelihood of any military action of the U.S. or Israel against any country in the world? The only thing I know is the fact that most powerful leaders of these days think and behave like kindergartners. And kindergartners like to hit their fellow students, especially when they think themselves the stronger ones. Following this logic, the likelihood of an attack on a scale of 1 to 10 is actually an 11—at least.
On the other hand, lame ducks seldom start new wars because doing so would create a dark chapter in the history of their Presidentdom (if that word doesn’t exist in the American language, then keep it). Lame duck presidents usually focus on their legacies, which means to create a nice library that will be visited by people who are losing some of their marbles. Since I fall into that group, I am already planning a trip to the Bush Memorial Library, somewhere in Texas.
For extra points, I think the date of such an attack is June 39 (Miklós Vámos Day of Reading European Fiction). Hmmm?
