What the hell is this?

The Ahmeananutjob fan club?

The guy is a fucking asshole, who stole his "re-election," denies the Holocaust, lies about Israel, lies about the US, and people are talking here about his "great speech" at the UN??!!??

:wtf:

suits you well...you are an embarrassment to DemocraticUnderground.com. The Iranian DICTATOR hangs homosexuals for hellsakes! Do you still support him? PM me!!!

and frankly I don't think you do either. But it's so brazenly obnoxious that instead of PMing you, I think I'll just Ignore you. Or would that be "Ignhor"? :hi:

I am listening to the interpreter and I am hearing pretty batshit insane ramblings.

Walked out. Ahmeananutjob started saying 9-11 was an inside job... "Bush did it to go to war."

Bush used 9-11, he didn't DO 9-11.

Ahmeananutjob deserves a swift kick in the ass out the door. Nothing more.

Seems like any peaceful resolution in diplomacy includes listening to what the other side has to say, regardless of how nonsensical or odious it might be.

knowing full well you can't provide it.

3 steps to a more peaceful world:

1) Listen to what everyone in power has to say.
2) Evaluate rationally and unemotionally
3) Respond likewise (not by storming out of the room, slamming the door, throwing a tantrum, dropping bombs).

Seems so easy.

The simple fact is that world leaders like all humans are basically emotional creatures that sometimes act rationally. They don't always act in good faith. They often act in a way to secure an advantage over the other parties by feigning good faith. One cannot be reasonable with those who are acting out of hostility.

Frankly, your post strikes me as exceedingly naitive. A link to a post that says, "The Iranian government hates us" or the contrary view proves nothing. It is the actions of Iran and the words coming out of their president's mouth that demonstrate at least total contempt for the Western world if not outright hatred.

out of hostility or one not only lowers oneself to their level, but takes a bad situation and escalates it.

You say A's words demonstrate total contempt for the Western world, yet he claims to agree with the American people:

"'The majority of the American people as well as most nations and politicians around the world agree with this view,' Ahmadinejad told the 192-nation assembly, calling on the United Nations to establish 'an independent fact-finding group' to look into the events of September 11."

Whether or not his statement is true, does that imply he has total contempt for the American people, or just the American government? Does it even imply that?

FWIW, one memorable time I was accused of being "exceedingly naive" was in a 2003 streetcorner debate when I doubted the existence of WMDs. So that accusation doesn't have a great track record with me.

no reason to bomb him, just destroy the economy and let the saudi's handle the problem. They owe us one.

BTW, when did the Nazis admit that Marius van der Lubbe was a put up, and they were behind the Reichstag fire?

That's right. They NEVER did.

There are a lot of twoofers around here.

It casts an ugly light on those around here who think in those terms, doesn't it?

I've not seen any.

I asked, I received, I was enlightened... I don't need snarky assed bullshit...

He's a fucking puppet of the Revolutionary Council - the religious bosses run that country, not him.

He's just a distraction.

in the DU 9/11 dungeon will be praising this fanatic to the rafters." It looks like I wasn't far off. Good OP, rec.

He is against peace and probably stole his last election.

Just like our last president.

Time for your next retraction and apology, eh?
