It is interesting to see what different results reporters end up with, starting from a different perspective.
The lady here of course, is dear Zelda Herzl who in her zenith, like lady luck, received a gift from the thief who had no right to be the giver in the first place. And that, her father, the mean Theodor, who punted the foul idea that a God in whom he had less than little faith, on the contrary, whom he denied the very existence of, had promised the land be given the lady by the thief who had stolen it. No wonder then, he had no friend who scholarly at that time in 1917 would stand with him, the podium to uphold by scriptures leaned against it so as to support thereupon the speaker, Theo our dear father of Zelda. Now the harlot protests much. "I knowest enough" sayeth she, "and want not more to hurt my delicate frame, with cold hard memory". Of course, she knows a lot, and we forget less than she.
Such argument, made by pimp intellectual de Columbia Universal Scientiae, of late. So eloquently unconvincing an argument to those who had ears to hear, if any there had been there, by Earl of Bollocks Bollinger in his treatise de character suicide. "'is the most researched thing in all history" or something of this kind, now how my weak and ghastly severed mind serveth me feebly, most inaccurately, I'd ask of my readers that ye do me the kindness of granting me pardon. And for his conclusion then, "no more needs to be said nor observed by any other". Again, most inaccurately volleyed he, yet caught i the gist of yon pale line of reason, most tangengial findeth the one who seeks to wander in a forest or maze on sunny afternoon, with parasol to as succour from unkindly sunlight [mp3]. Is it Denmark this time of year, for hear I the geese. Is it so, pray tell me. It reeks foul. Perchance the inhabitors of more eastern regions that seek out the foul this mid-autumn festival to annoint their tables, and make sacrifices to the elders, ancestors? Nay, surely, it be Denmark's fate as well? Nay, ye are the learned ones. The relative of the Hun hath a tradition to impart to all humanity. One of subtle depth, and refin'ed tact. When employee is about to be dismissed, at dinner table, in audience of the entire workforce, he is presented a foul, whose head faceth the benefactor (not so much the benefactor as the foul, for he is most least held so by the employer). In fact, he that receives the foul, glaring squint at him, is the one who next receives the chop, most ungraciously not from the chef, but from the host of such a banquet. It stares at him, his own pageant, such as Bollinger did prepare, and laughs him all the way out of town. Does what the dear Zelda received, this equate: intellecual wanton revelry? For her earlier setting up of the, cause, the terror and the solution most bizarre, the billions in profits that came in coffers galore, and the blood in coffers most macabre. Cry foul! Foul! Yes, foul for sure, we all are in the know. You cry foul and so did we.

Ahmadinejad Interview on CBS - 60 minutes (location: Tehran Sept 2007)
Perhaps a translation error? I really don't know. According to one report, the CIA found in November 2006, that there was in fact NO EVIDENCE Iran is developing nuclear weapons. [read French Agency report].
In fact NONE of these statements circulated by the Associated Press Agency are true:
(1) The president of Iran says the holocaust is a myth, (2) Israel should be destroyed, and his country (3) [Iran] should be allowed to build nuclear weapons.
1) President Ahmadenijad was speaking for an examination of the real facts behind the holocaust, and begging the hypothetical i.e. he said "if the holocaust happened in Europe, why should Palestinians have to pay the price for crimes that took place in Europe". If that is saying that the holocaust is a myth, then Europe must be a mythical place. Quite simply, he never questioned whether it happened, only the real circumstances around it and what followed the holocaust i.e. the occupation of Palestine.
2) The call is for the regime in Jerusalem to be removed from the page of history i.e. to see this call in it's context is to understand that it means to expose Israel's crimes and to replace it with a democratic and representative regime that abides by international laws. Iranians call for death to the evil that drives the barbaric regime of Israel. It is the same as saying, "death to terrorism" or calling for a "war on terrorism". Hence, Iran's president wishes to lay a wreath at the WTC ground zero site. Allowing him to do this will go a long way to show the world a true face of Islamic leaders. Unfortunately, he will not be allowed to do this.
3) As to nuclear weapons: Iran is OPPOSED TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS. It is a co-signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (where the U.S.A. has not significantly reduced it's arsenal having declared itself a nuclear nation, and Israel openly expands hers while refusing to sign the NPT). Iran is suspected by the same people who suspected Saddam of not having destroyed the WMD they sold to him previously. These suspicions have to be seen in light of the fact that Iran has the right to develop nuclear power capabilities according to these treaties.
It isn't surprising that efforts on the part of Iran have been met with narrow minded responses by US government officials.
On the positive side, the United Nations has received a gift from Iran (hand-woven carpet) with appreciation.
I am sure that many people haven't had the opportunity to see these videos, so I am posting them here for you. The most important one I will post separately as the President has been misquoted so many times about that.
The first is the press conference at the UN last year. The entire video is available at the UN Video archive. In Iranian manner, similar to African culture, it takes some time for the speaker to get to the main points. We tend to set the mood first, so viewers are advised to watch the entire clip to understand his intentions.
This next video is part 1 of 4 parts. Those who have little time can scan the shortened speech I have typed out below.
Text extract of speech
It
is evident that the behaviors of some powers constitutes the greatest
challenge before the security council, the entire organization, and its
affiliated agencies. The present structure and working methods of the
security council, which are legacies of the second world war, are not
responsive to the expectations of the current generation and the
contemporary needs of humanity. Today, it is undeniable that the
security council, most critically and urgently, needs legitimacy, and
effectiveness. It must be acknowledged that as long as the council is
unable to act on behalf of the entire international community, in a
transparent, just and democratic manner, it will neither be legitimate,
nor effective. Furthermore, the direct relation between the abuse of
veto, and the erosion of the legitimacy and effectiveness of the
council, has now been clearly and undeniably established.
We
cannot and should not expect the eradication or even containment of
injustice, imposition, and oppression without reforming the structure
and working methods of the council. Is it appropriate to expect this
generation to submit to the decisions and arrangements established over
half a century ago? Doesn't this generation or future generations have
the right to decide themselves about the world in which they want to
live?
Justice and democracy dictate that the role of the General
Assembly, as the highest organ of the United Nations, must be
respected. The General Assembly can then, through appropriate
mechanisms, take on the task of reforming the organization, and
particularly rescue the security council from it's current state. In
the interim, the Non-aligned Movement, the Organization of the Islamic
Conference, and the African Continent, should each have a
representative, as a permanent member of the security council, with
veto powers. The resulting balance will hopefully prevent further
trampling of the rights of nations.
It is essential that spirituality and ethics find their rightful place in international relations. Without ethics and spirituality contained in the light of the teachings of the divine prophets, justice, freedom and human rights cannot be guaranteed. Resolution of contemporary human crises lies in observing ethics and spirituality and the governance of righteous people of high competence and piety. Should respect for the rights of human beings become the predominant objective, then injustice, ill-temperament, aggression and war will fade away. Human beings are all God's creatures, and are all endowed with dignity and respect. No one has superiority over others. No individual or states can arrogate for themselves special privileges. Nor can they disregard the rights of others, and through influence and pressure, position themselves as "the international community".
All nations and states are entitled to peace, progress and security. We are all members of the international community and we are all entitled to insist on the creation of a climate of compassion, love and justice.
Peoples, driven by their divine nature, intrinsically seek good, virtue, perfection and beauty. Relying on our people's, we can take giant steps towards reform, and pave the road for human perfection. Whether we like it or not, justice, peace and virtue will sooner or later prevail in the world, with the will of the almighty God. It is imperative and also desirable, that we too should lead to the promotion of justice and virtue. The almighty and merciful God, who is the creator of the universe, is also it's Lord and Ruler. Justice is His command. He commands His creatures to support one another in good, virtue, and piety; and not in decadence and corruption. He commands His creatures to enjoin one another to righteousness and virtue; and not to sin and transgression.
All divine prophets, from the prophet Adam (peace be upon him) to the prophet Moses, to the prophet Jesus Christ, to the prophet Mohammed, have all called humanity to monotheism, justice, brotherhood, love and compassion. Is it not possible to build a better world based on monotheism, justice, love and respect for the rights of human beings; and thereby transform animosities into friendship? I emphatically declare that today's world, more than ever before, longs for just and righteous people with love for all humanity; and above all, longs for the perfect, righteous human being, and the real saviour who has been promised to all peoples and who will establish justice, peace and brotherhood on the planet.
President Ahmadinejad has been asked by the Columbia State University to address an audience there. The president of the senate of the university is quoted by the Associated Press (Sept 23rd):
President Lee Bollinger has resisted calls to cancel the event, but promised to introduce the talk himself with a series of tough questions on topics including Ahmadinejad's views on the Holocaust, his call for the destruction of the state of Israel and his government's alleged support of terrorism.
The university "is committed to confronting ideas — to understand the world as it is and as it might be," Bollinger said in a statement, emphasizing the invitation implied no endorsement of Ahmadinejad's opinions.
I am sure you hope along with me, for an uninterrupted listening to this person's response to such interesting questions. I have little doubt that the media in the most undemocratic nations will misquote him so many times that his real words will end up being unheard anyway. One of Hitler's side kicks is famous for saying that if a lie is repeated often enough it will become the truth. It's sickening when psychopaths are so correct in their observations that I have to agree. I am sure I will one day be quoted as in agreement with the Nazzis. Anyone who believes I am a nazzi will also say I am an anti-semite. To be frank, those who know, know. And those who don't, don't.
To some of those who have had lies drummed ad nauseum into their unconscious, the crowds listening to Ahmadinejad in this video appear as though they were engaged in "mass hysteria" as a result of years of indoctrination. Yet the same viewer may miss the fact that the participants in the talk show above, have no idea about Iran. it seems as though American viewers are extremely unaware of most things if such shows continue to be aired. I am certain that talk shows in Iran are of a higher standard (just my opinion).
As you view these videos, consider that it is in fact YOU who have been indoctrinated into thinking that Iranians have no minds, no free will. It is YOU who consider that God created women to be paraded naked in public, without modesty. It is YOU who have been duped into thinking that women who choose to live according to how they see God's will (with modesty), are oppressed. No! Women who don't realise they are being used by the media as sex objects, are the ones oppressed. I came across warning on a site on vox, against people posting images of the female body and it got me thinking: people dress in very revealing ways, and when pictures are taken of them, they feel exposed. How strange that they do not feel exposed just walking out into the street dressed in clothing that reveals their most private parts, yet they feel exposed when a photo is taken. How strange that they feel their privacy is breached when they themselves walked out in the public view dressed as they did. I object to pictures being taken also. I also would defend any woman dressing in any way she chooses. But isn't it wonderful that God in His wisdom, has guided us correctly in the way we SHOULD dress. If someone is in error, let him find his own way. There is no compulsion to accept my God. But if there are enough of us who wish to guide our young people correctly by being good examples, if our culture is advanced and civilised, then having such laws as Iran does, is a choice we make as a society.
