Why do tyrants and dictators like to make ridiculous claims?
Saddam Hussein once claimed that during a fair and free election in Iraq he received
100% of the vote, not a single vote was cast against him. Vladimir Putin once
claimed to have wrestled a bear and later said that while scuba diving he
discovered and ancient shipwreck and recovered priceless artifacts from it. Now
Ahmadinejad says he is ready to be the first Iranian to be sent into space.
Iran’s new space program recently claimed to have
successfully sent a monkey into space and brought it back to earth in good
health. Funny, but when I read that I thought Ahmadinejad had already been in
orbit….
His claim may not be too far off. They might be considering
sending him. His term as President ends in June and he can’t run again. This
would certainly get him out of the way. And besides, think of the money they
could save. He could use the same space suit and capsule the monkey used. They
are about the same size after all…
Live Long and Prosper....
