Well, yes, McGrath, because they need him. He serves as the present evil "face" to focus people's attention on, thus the perfect propaganda device to foment fear and promote another potential war.

Look, the nastiest thing Mr Ahmadinejad could possibly do to screw up things totally for the USA would be to immediately resign from office, retire from politics, move to France or Italy, and become the host of a public affairs show on TV that focuses primarily on interviewing stars of sitcoms and showcasing the latest clothing styles. ;-)

That would temporarily completely bugger up the USA propaganda machine. I wish he would do it! LOL! Then they would have to find another evil "face" in Iran to obsess about. And when they found that one, he also could resign, and go and live in a monastery in Thailand. Yeah!

I think that the Third World should employ this approach at once, thus depriving the USA of its primary propaganda technique....focusing on one terrible, evil "bad guy" with swarthy skin, facial hair, and a foreign name...and telling everyone that he is the greatest threat to life and limb since Adolf Hitler. If the official bad guy simply resigns and returns to private life, and is replaced by someone unknown to Americans, then the USA propaganda effort sinks like a punctured balloon.

Are you listening, Mr Ahmadinejad? Do it. Do it now. ;-)
