Blown away...
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad questioned the official version of the Sept. 11 attacks and defended the right to cast doubt on the Holocaust in a tense appearance Monday at Columbia University, whose president accused the hard-line leader of behaving like "a petty and cruel dictator."

The United States earlier today detonated a 10-kiloton nuclear device over the South African capital, Cape Town. Although initial reports indicate the twin towers of the old Athlone Power Station withstood the blast, South African emergency response crews say the Cape Flats has been "obliterated".
Responding to the unwarranted attack, U.S. president George W. Bush confirmed the detonation, saying it "...speaks volumes about really the greatness of America."
Asked whether the loss of several hundred thouand lives justified America's continuing arbitrary tests of its 'really the greatness', Mr. Bush responded, "I guess it’s OK with me."
...by astonishingly uneducated Americans
South African President Thabo Mbeki, roused from his bed at The Presidency in Tshwane, expressed dismay at the loss of Cape Town. Describing Bush as a "...petty and cruel dictator", Mbeki challenged his slaughter of millions worldwide and queried his willingness to allow others' their views.
"Frankly, in all candor, I doubt Bush has the intellectual courage to answer these questions," he added.
Turning to the Cape Town Holocaust, Mbeki described his American counterpart as "...quite simply ridiculous" and accused him of being "...either brazenly provocative or astonishingly uneducated."
Reporters chuckled knowingly at the president's last remark.
"Iran's actions threaten the security of nations everywhere."

"Umm... but that wasn't Tehran, Mr. President. It was Cape Town."
"That's OK with me."
"Yes, Sir."
Given the hysterical, propaganda-driven public response to Ahmadinejad's visit — nine times out of ten he'd pass unnoticed through New York, is it any wonder America's media, business, and political leaders treat 'their people' with such derisive and dismissive contempt? Continuing saturation media coverage of the most distasteful type convinces the world USians are capable only of making absolute asses of themselves.
