Jesse Ventura: "I've Had Enough of the Fascist States of America!"

Former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura is so upset by the dismissal of his airport security lawsuit that he threatened Friday to apply for dual citizenship, so that he can spend more time in his beloved Mexico, but don't think he's camping out south of the border forever. He hinted that he might need to run for president, of what he labelled 'the Fascist States of America' in order to fix the problem. Mr. Ventura, also known as a former 'wrestling star', sued the US government in January, alleging that airport scans and pat-downs amounted to unreasonable search and seizure. In other news, Israel's President Shimon Peres warned on Sunday that an attack on Iran is becoming increasingly likely, days before a report by the UN's nuclear watchdog on Iran's nuclear program is due. "The possibility of a military attack against Iran is now closer to being applied than the application of a diplomatic option," Peres told the Israel Hayom daily. "We must stay calm and resist pressure so that we can consider every alternative," he added. "I don't think that any decision has already been made, but there is an impression that Iran is getting close to nuclear weapons." "The intelligence services of the different countries that are keeping an eye on Iran are worried, and putting pressure on their leaders to warn that Iran is ready to obtain nuclear weapons," he said.
