It would, I believe be more correct to point out that the Muslim states are silent on the matter, since it is a peculiar virulent anti-semitism that motivates their genocidal mania.

Dismay, Kofi, you better take a pill, your response is so ,ummm, eh, urrr, I don't know, .....flacid? Dismay doesn't cut it. You are the head of an organization that supposedly upholds the highest standards of the world and is supposed to be the future headquarters of the world government that so many leftists lust for and the best he can do is dismay? If Iran managed to drive the Jeeeeewwwwssss into the sea would Kofi be distraught? I bet he would even have to take a tums and miss his sushi reservation because he would so upset. Guess what Kofi, meglomaniacs don't care if they cause anyone any sense of dismay. Oh gosh, Kofi is distraught, I guess we won't wipe out the Jews. Yeah, that will cut it. Roger:

I bet he figured a bunch of Arab leaders would endorse his speech. The Arab states were silent on the matter.

The opportunity that Ahmadinejad has given them is one of a political ``I’m not an anti-Semitic’’ inoculation. By ``denouncing in the strongest terms’’ or ``summoning the Iranian ambassador’’ etc these leftists and sorted anti-Israelis can now use their ``disgust’’ over Ahmadinejad’s statements as ``proof’’ that their not anti-Jewish. The true test is action. Will major contracts be cancelled? Will the Iranian opposition be supported?? There is a saying that goes something like this faith that does not act is not sincere. As for Arab governments remaining silent on this matter, of course, they are silent they agree wholeheartedly with Ahmadinejad. No issue unites Arabs from Morocco to Iraq more than the desire for Israel’s destruction. I would wager that in the Arab world you would find more agreement with Ahmadinejad’’s statement in principle than with the statement that tooth decay is bad. Ahmadinejad maybe Persian but he speaks to the Arab heart. Ahmadinejad`s statements have been a blessing in disguise for the world`s, particularly European, leftists.

A "rare rebuke"! I love that. The irony! The dead-pan way it's said! Its ... shall we say? ... incompleteness. It should have been written, "A rare rebuke of a despotic regime -- especially of a Muslim one." Kofi Annan has seldom shied away from rebuking the United States (a in calling the Iraq War "illegal"). A rare rebuke indeed. Kofi Annan est un ver. “A rare rebuke” by Kofi Annan? A “rare rebuke”!

It's saddest to read the waffling of the Russian Foreign Minister in light of the fact that they are the ones helping construct Iran's tools for their own version of the Final Solution.

The United Kingdom, together with France and Germany, has pushed hard for a "diplomatic solution" to the Iranian nuclear crisis, whatever that may mean in dealing with a murderous, racist, theocratic tyranny. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has humiliated the erstwhile great powers of Europe. There was a time when it was very dangerous for Persian potentates to do such a thing. Today, though, a sabre-rattling tin pot fascist can weather the storm of, er, protests in the world's diplomatic salons, because that is the price that he is likely to pay. Blair, alone, has the stones to risk the rage of his own party and threaten the ultimate escalation: "discussions with Washington." One might well ask what Blair would do if there were an anti-war Democrat in the White House. George W. Bush, it seems, has his uses.
