you think all the UN members speak each others languages?
Don't be so naive, and dont' try defending him, he is an idiot.
Just like Bush. They should be married, they can have mutant idiot
children.
I suppose its also a lie your president was caught on videotape
talking to an aide after the speech that he saw and felt a halo
over his head and actually thought the other members were putty
in his hands. Of course thats all faked though, right?
The thing that makes this all sick is both the Muslims and the
right wing Christians believe in a coming apocolype.
That is the ultimate sickness, the fuel that drives all this drivel.

You sound just as irrational and fanatical as he does.

You deny the Iranian president calling the holocaust a myth?
You deny he calls for any country in the world to take the Israelis?
You deny he calls for the destruction of Israel, the US and ALL
zionists, whatever the heck that means.
I think if they called you out, you would be the first one to grab
a rifle.

The problem with Jihadists is that they like to take the fight to western streets and blow up civilians. If they didn't, they wouldn't be jihadists - jihad necessarily involves killing infidels. And when you say that the progressive elements in a country would drive out despots - well, I have to disagree with you. The Saudi royal family is propped ...[text shortened]... hat's an AWFUL lot for one country to concede. What tangible things does Israel get in return?
either if it will support their 'cause'.
Look at the hundreds of muslims that died on the US attack
on 9-11, Just what kind of attack on the US is it they took out
two buildings full of non-americans? A virtual UN there.
What was it, a full 10% of the deaths were muslim.
That shows how devoted they are to their own people.
The rational there is, the dead muslims will be given even MORE
virgins in heaven, so its ok if a few followers of Islam die, BY GOD
We GOT A LOT OF INFIDELS.

It's rather amusing when you call something "ridiculous" and then espouse positions EXACTLY proving my assertions.
The so-called "Road Map to Peace" is a perfect example of the West insisting that a Muslim group - here the Palestinians who are the victims of an illegal Israeli occupation - give in before Israel concedes anything. The Pales ...[text shortened]... to Israel, etc. etc. etc. is a pipe dream. Insisting on that means continued struggle and death.
west bank settlements, something they should never have built in
the first place but now they are gone and Hamas hasn't stopped
the bombing. So Israel DID give up something, admittedly that they
should not have had in the first place but Hamas should reply in kind,
stop bombing for a year anyway, what was it, two weeks before they
started up again? What kind of message do you think that sends to
the Israeli in the street? That Hamas is seeking peace?
When they have vowed to destroy Israel no matter how many
concessions are made?

Originally posted by sonhouseAre you claiming that no one can shake the prejudice of the parents? That really is moronic. I am from South Florida as are my parents and were my grandparents. If you don't know, Florida used to be a part of the South. My grandparents were prejudices, but my parents taught me to never judge a person by their color, but rather by their actions. I have had AfroAmerican friends since kindergarten and have dated black women. So you are saying that in reality, because my grandparents were prejudice, that I am prejudice as well. That is plain stupid! I grew up with black, white, latin and just about every other race out there and have never judged someone based on their color.
its like white guys here in america, as much as
they say they are friends with blacks there is a built in bias they
can't shake because of their parents and THEIR parents, etc.
I don't have a "built in bias". It is simple as that. You are wrong. It seems to me that you have an anti-muslim bias based on your friendship with Israelis. You try to sound intelligent, but it still comes out as Muslim hating.

Doesn't the Palestine authority have an active responsibility of their own to prevent attacks ?
no1: The Palestinian Authority would be under an obligation to make its best efforts to prevent attacks against Israel or any other country from its territory. This is the same obligation that any country has. No country is an insurer; the fact that 15 Saudis attacked the US on 9/11 does not mean that Saudi Arabia is responsible for the attack. The same principle would apply to Palestine.
If such an attack did occur despite reasonable efforts by the state of Palestine, they would be obligated to assist in the apprehension of those who conducted or planned such attacks. This again is an obligation all countries share. Is that clear enough?

Originally posted by sonhouseWrong. Mostly correct, but wrong. Let me correct you. They have AMERICAN Iranian translators. Should I repeat that? AMERICAN Iranian translators. That means that it might change, have you ever thought of that? The President got where he is by cheating, you think that they wouldn't change the wording of what was said a little to put Iran in what looks like a bad spot? Have you really any proof besides the putty people in the government’s hands? Do you REALLY trust the government? Don't think you're some smart guy here, I know all about politics. Don't argue. You know damn well they want a war with Iran. Do you think they will really be honest? Can you read Farsi? I can. I recently did read the speech Ahmadijad made concerning several main issues. I must say, when I read it in American papers I was shocked and mad. I wanted the guy dead. A stupid fool, a stupid, immature fool, I thought. But then, I read his speech. And it wasn't at all what is was reported to be. He didn't say there wasn't a Holocaust: he said that scholars are still not sure, even today, how many Jews died in it. And he said that nobody knows exactly how many Jews died. He didn't say there wasn't a Holocaust. But it was twisted, so very twisted, and since then I see more of where it's coming from. I feel no shame in saying I am much more informed here than you. I know that, in this case, I know what's going on much better than you. Don't contest it. I am Iranian. I am atheist. I am unbiased. I have many Jewish friends, and believe me when I say how many times I apologized to them about what the president said, thinking what American papers said are true. They're not. No1maruder has the grasp much better here. And he is arguing on a stronger basis. I know. I've researched and studied and looked at this all for hours on end. And, I am right. Possibly, maybe probably it is because I am saying this that you do not apologize and keep on attacking me. But be serious with yourself. You know that I am right. Do not argue for the sake of arguing.
er, they have translaters for United Nations speeches or perhaps

and know the bias against blacks is still there though it may be
less now than when I lived there. I lived in Fort Walton Beach
up the panhandle. My last vesitges of bias I think left when I started
studying delta blues, realizing how much genius was floating around
in the black community in the delta region. My guitar teacher,
Mike Steward AKA Backwards Sam Firk, and Tom Hoskins, AKA Fang,
personally rediscovered one of the legendary geniuses on guitar and
brought him back to the east in 1963, that guy was
Mississippi John Hurt, someone I tried to copy about the same time
as Mike and Tom were bringing him back. The incredible guitar
of these guys and others like Blind Reverand Gary Davis, whom
I was lucky enough to be invited to a small party after on of his
performances, I and another folkie, Micheal Cooney, both drove home
about 30 miles in differant directions and came back with tape
recorder in hand and recorded him, Gary was an awesome guitarist.
Anyway I knew my parents had biased me pretty well although I vowed
to myself to shake it, even when I was 10. But it is still there in
the background of most whites, even northern ones. I think that
is something that may go away with time, lots of time.
In my hometown near San Diego, our town is called Escondido,
and it was said if you are black, be out of town by 5 pm.
That was a long time ago, 1960, and I am sure a lot of that blatant
racism is gone now but you didn't have to be a rocket scientist
to see it. And that was in a west coast, supposedly bias free, town.
