This is going to be a short one boys and girls…
My last semester in college I took a course entitled "American Rhetoric." Long story short, we studied speeches made by orators that were extremely well written in the classical sense and ridiculously outrageous ones in the nut-job sense. While both categories of speech made my professors syllabus, one of the most important lessons I learned from the course and the professor was that eccentricity in oration is a deterrence; it will only cause hysteria among the population and it contributes zero in the way of progression.
Iran's president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke this past week to an assembly at the U.N., and as usual, used his time to make judgment calls on other nations instead of working proactively with other nations to end violence.
