Breaking News: Iran

I suppose it would be too much to ask to have these people leave the rest of the world alone. When people behave badly, their behavior is easily avoided. When entire nations behave badly, especially regarding nuclear capability, then it may be time to break out the spears and rocks because we sure as hell are headed for another Dark Age if the nuclear genie gets out of the bottle into the wrong hands ... and I can’t think of any hands that are more wrong than the Mad Mullahs in Iran .... I don’t suppose I need to tell you all to stock up on ammo and survival gear, do I?

TEHRAN, Iran (AP)—Iran has successfully enriched uranium for the first time, a landmark in its quest to develop nuclear fuel, hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday. He insisted, however, that his country does not aim to develop nuclear weapons.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
