The following are excerpts from a speech by Iranian President-Elect Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad, which aired on Iranian Channel 1 on July 25, 2005. ( Transcript )

Ahmadi-Nejad: We want art that is on the offensive. Art on the offensive exalts
and defends the noble principles, and attacks principles that are corrupt,
vulgar, ungodly, and inhuman.
Art reaches perfection when it portrays the
best life and best death. After all, art tells you how to live. That is the
essence of art. Is there art that is more beautiful, more divine, and more
eternal than the art of martyrdom? A nation with martyrdom knows no captivity.
Those who wish to undermine this principle undermine the foundations of our
independence and national security. They undermine the foundation of our
eternity.
The message of the (Islamic) Revolution is global, and is not
restricted to a specific place or time. It is a human message, and it will move
forward.
Have no doubt... Allah willing, Islam will conquer what? It will
conquer all the mountain tops of the world.

And we're suppose to just let him have a nuclear bomb? The same man who the US just concluded was a leader of the movement behind the 1979 hostage crisis at the US embassy in Tehran is preaching the virtues of martyrdom.
This is Radical Islam. This is what we are fighting. This is evil.
