WorldNetDaily’s Joseph Farah is giddy with delight over the fact that al-Qaeda is threatening Iran with war if Tehran doesn’t stop supporting the government of Iraq.

Never mind all the contradictions between this and Farah’s pro-Iraq war position–for example, that Iraq and Iran were both sponsors of al-Qaeda or that the war was not going to lead to Iranian dominance of Iraq.

Farah writes:

While al-Qaida and Hezbollah have, in the past, worked out strategic alliances when they have a common enemy like the U.S., nothing could serve Western interests more than an all-out war between Iran and al-Qaida.

All we need to do is step aside and let them kill each other.

What could be easier?

Thus we see that terrorism directed against innocent Iranians (although perhaps there is no such animal in Farah’s world) is perfectly acceptable and even praiseworthy if it “serve[s] Western interests.” Just “step aside and let them kill each other.”

What a nice, loving, Christian attitude Mr. Farah has.
