Bout time the Iranian people spoke to the idiots in their
government
then.

The problem in Iran isn't so much the government as it is the
clerical
class.

Ahmadenijad has very little power in Iran, but the Ayatollah's
trump
even him.

A while back there was a British journalist who went into Tehran
and
it
was a bit disconcerting to me. It was one of those never think
about
it
issues but it's a modern city.

More to the point, the sentiment among the people is changing. The
Ayatollah's don't hold much power over the youth in the country.
So we
could see change sooner than later.

I guess Lebanon is similar in many ways, most people lead a life not
that
far removed from many in the "Western World" but sadly the
separation of
Church and State does not occur.- Hide quoted text -

So you interpret the "Western World" lifestyle as -- hou? Music?
Hairstyle? It doesn't matter how you wear your hair, what movies you
watch or what kind of music you listen to when it comes to
institutionalized hate.

What else does the US give to the world other than pop culture,
entertainment, hair styles and fast food? What?

So US = Western World? Well, one thing is for certain -- the US
certainly doesn't give the world Jewish hatred. As I recall, whenever
there is a huge catastrophe, the US is usually the first ones in to
offer whatever help the stricken nation will receive. And they poor
money into poor nations asking for nothing in return. The US is one of
the most generous nations on earth and they get very little back in
the form of gratitude. But they still do it anyway. And if the US
stopped doing it, you'd be the first one screaming about it and
defending Jew haters. Yep, sounds sensible to me. Yeah, right.


OK, are you aware of how many people in this country think the Holocaust is
a myth? I'll give you a hint, it is more than the whole population of Iran.

And as for generosity, nope. Looked at as a percentage of per capita
income, or ever GDP, the US is far down the list. Canada, France, GB,
Japan - all higher than the US.
