"Day of Happiness Near"

Those were the words spoken by Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. More specifically, he said, "The day of happiness for the region is near… The world is on the verge of great changes." (Click HERE for the short article)

Why does this frighten me?

We all know this guy is a complete whack-job. But he also happens to be the head of state for one of the most powerful regimes in the region and could be potentially sitting on nukes. What could this "great day" be in his mind? A nuclear armed Iran? He's often spoken wistfully about the destruction of Israel. Does he plan a mass attack there?

I'm afraid that even if this ends up amounting to nothing - someday, something WILL happen. And I have a feeling Iran will be a part of it.
