In any case it’s moot if several guys ID’d him at the scene. Maybe BOTH guys were involved in the embassy action -

… always a terrorist. At least, from the evidence presented by Gateway Pundit (h/t Larwyn), that seems to be the case.

It would appear that one of my favorite little tyrants might have a long history of committing terrorist acts. It’s not defin…

Hmmm… Alexander Jason eh? Maybe it’s Jason Alexander that did the photo comparison, in which case Allah is doing a victory dance on George Costanza’s say so.

Or the lesser known Jason Alexander, Britney’s first husband in that marriage that lasted 55 hours.

Anyway, in memory of Costanza – “Moops!”

Is somebody trying to say, “They all look alike”?

You’re a racist for even jokingly asking that question! Now leave me and my Democrat pals to make blackface photoshops of black Republicans or Democrats who don’t toe the line… or Wolf Blitzer.

I was wondering about that, if it were simply possible that Ahmadinejad just shaves that area but that (if it were him in the other picture) couldn’t during the time period he grew that large beard.

Or, is it obvious if a man shaves that part?

Glad someone agrees and sees what I do… And no it’s not that obvious, if they either shave it closely, or you aren’t looking at them in person or at least an extremely high resolution photograph. Again, I’m in the camp that says this isn’t him, but the soul patch area hair is not even close to a smoking gun in my mind. A more logical case I would say is because the man in the 1979 photo appears to be a lot older than 23.

I’m siding with Allah. They are not one in the same.

Also, I appreciate the comment about shaving around the Soul Patch area hence the reason they don’t match. But, look at that weak-a$$ moustache he has on his upper lip in the young Mahmoud photo. It’s scraggly to say the least. Hence the reason he didn’t shave around his soul patch. He couldn’t grow hair there.

and hair don’t grow on that soul patch area.

…or much of anywhere else with any success. This guy’s been S.O.L. in the beard department for quite some time. He looks today like a chimp who’s been incompletely shaved.

Either that, or it’s Tony Shaloub.

The debate is growing from yesterday over whether the man pictured on the left, a Iranian hostage taker in 1979, is a young Ahmadinejad, pictured right. My take: Definitely not. First of all, I don’t think they look all that……

I think this guy hates Israel and West the same way conservatives hate gays and abortion. They both talk a good game to fire up their base, but deep down they know Israel isn’t going anywhere and neither are gays.

1. Conservatives don’t hate gays. In fact, many conservatives are gay.

2. For those against abortion, the hate there is 100% real and is the motivation behind electing a man who will put construtionists on the Supreme Court instead of activists.

Does he really want to destroy Israel? Maybe, in his dark fantasies, but if you think he doesn’t play politics and choose his statements carefully based on his audience you are pretty naive.

You know, that’s what people said about Hitler too.

the area around the lower lip appears to be significantly less dense than it first appears.

I think I see what you’re saying. With a beard as thick as that one is, it makes sense that the hair could grow over the bald patches making them appear whole.
