Addressing a delegation of Italian parliamentarians during their recent visit to Tehran, Majlis speaker Gholam Ali Haddad Adel commented that “the Islamic Revolution is of no threat to other states and their national security.” But now the Speaker has changed his mind and in an interview to an Iranian newspaper he has said that “the countdown to Israel’s destruction has begun.” (No doubt, among those Europeans who support dialogue with Tehran at all costs, this statement will be interpreted as a sign of moderation–after all, if the Speaker said “Israel,” he must recognizes its existence!) Fools will be fools no matter what, and they’ll accept Adel’s first statement at face value. But for those whose mind still functions, the contradiction should be evidence of two things: Iran’s duplicity and the folly of dialogue with bloodthirsty warmongers.
