A quick solution to the Iran issue: Convince the administration and congress that it’s not the Islamic Republic of Iran, it’s the Islamic Republicans of Iran. (as Regan joked) The bombing starts in five minutes.

Pop Quiz: Life Or Death

Synthetic molecules designed by two Hebrew University of Jerusalem researchers have succeeded in reducing and even eliminating the growth of human malignant tissues in mice, while having no toxic effects on normal tissue.

The molecules developed by Dr. Arie Dagan and Prof. Shimon Gatt of the Department of Biochemistry of the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School affected the metabolism of various sphingolipids and consequently those of cancer cells. Sphingolipids are a family of complex lipid molecules that are involved in signaling pathways that mediate cell growth, differentiation and death. (Science Daily)

These are the people Achooonejad in Iran wants to wipe off the face of the Earth.

Iran poll

NewsMax Internet poll involving nearly 60,000 participants:

1) Do you believe U.S. efforts to contain Iran’s nuclear weapons program are working?

  • Working: 7 percent
  • Not Working: 93 percent

2) Should the United States rely solely on the U.N. to stop Iran’s nuclear weapons program?

  • Yes: 11 percent
  • No: 89 percent

3) Do you believe Iran poses a greater threat than Saddam Hussein did before the Iraq War?

  • Yes: 88 percent
  • No: 12 percent

4) Should the U.S. undertake military action against Iran to stop their program?

  • Yes: 77 percent
  • No: 23 percent

5) Who should undertake military action against Iran first?

  • U.S.: 45 percent
  • Israel: 35 percent
  • Neither: 20 percent

Can’t say that I disagree with the results, but I have to wonder if the participants actually understand the ramifications of any possible future actions (or if questions were asked about the consequences.)
