Ignorance is not Bliss but a Curse

The editors of the New York Daily News have added their voice to those who decided to perpetuate a big lie and a massive deception with regard to the Iran nuclear deal. They made their point in a piece they wrote under the title: “Aiding and abetting Iran in getting nukes even faster,” published on July 20, 2016 in the Daily News.

The lie is that “the pact [nuclear agreement] came with a hidden side deal.” In fact, this is a false assertion because everything about the agreement was made public prior to signing it. As to the deception that's being perpetuated by the editors and their cohorts, it has to do with the significance they attach to the rate at which Iran will produce nuclear fuel.

Without naming who the Associated Press experts might have been that came up with the presumed assessment, the editors of the Daily News quote the news agency as reporting that instead of the promised 15 years, Iran will be able to “enrich [uranium] at more than twice the rate” it is now doing, and will reach that level after only 11 years ... which is 4 years sooner than expected.

As a result of this discovery by the Associated Press, and the real or fictitious interpretation of what the numbers mean, the editors of the Daily News have allowed themselves to run wild with speculation regarding what the Iranians will do with the shortened time frame. Here is what they say: “Iran is playing a waiting game to nuke Israel and wipe the Jewish state off the map”.

It is obvious that those who believe these words can only be mental cases. That's because the Iranians have been around for thousands of years and have built a magnificent civilization, therefore cannot be so mental as to be this reckless. If they were, most of them would have been gassed and incinerated by now, and the few that survived would have trouble getting along with anyone on the planet. But looking around, we notice that this is a Jewish reality, not an Iranian one. Thus, it can be explained that the attempt to divert attention by the Jewish editors of the Daily News, is but a trick to project onto the Iranians what they see in themselves.

Since we have deduced that the Iranians are normal as normal can be, we must take it that they are not pursuing a nuclear program to build a bomb and use it to destroy Israel. Therefore, we are obliged to conclude that they are pursuing a nuclear program to generate electricity – which is what they say they are doing.

This being the case, we do the math to see how much nuclear fuel the Iranians might need, and compare that with what they plan to produce. In fact, such detailed calculations were done in an article that was published on this website in May of 2014, and can be accessed in the archives at the right side of this page. The article came under the title: “Pompous Impotence of the Obstreperous”.

What I do here is go over the same concepts without doing the math. Think how much fuel goes into the tank of a car. Now imagine the car getting involved in an accident in which the tank catches fire and explodes. Can you visualize how big an explosion that would be? Now think how much fuel oil goes into a house to heat it during the winter months. Can you visualize how big an explosion it would create if that tank exploded?

Well, it takes a lot more fuel than that to run the kitchen appliances, the living room electronics, the light bulbs in every room, and everything else that runs on electricity in a house. And if a fraction of that fuel was detonated in a single explosion, it would destroy not just the house but the entire neighborhood. The point is that in order to service a city with electric power, a nuclear plant will use enough uranium to raze not only the city but the entire country – if that uranium were turned into weapons.

Thus, to argue about how fast Iran will be able to refine how much uranium, and do it at what rate, is to engage in the kind of Jewish haggling that has paralyzed the American congress, has killed the American democracy and has turned the superpower into a loud mouthed exceptional buffoon. Stop this hair splitting and get serious if you want to save America.

Somebody should tell America's Jews they are strangling the goose that has been laying the golden egg for them. If they don't stop, the goose will die and they will die with it. They may think they are the smartest thing in the universe but they are as ignorant as hell. And that's a curse, not bliss.
