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.

What country are you talking about where they believe the Holocaust

is
a myth? That means nothing since the Flat Earth Society is still
around. Big difference, though -- people in the US who believe the
Holocaust is a myth are crackpots who never would get elected to
office. That isn't the case in Iran. As far as the GDP goes, for

that
matter, I'm sure Sri Lanka and Bangladesh rank up there as well.

But
when it comes to money and boots on the ground, the US is always
there. Even for Iran when they go through a disaster.


The percentage of people in this country that do not believe the
Holocaust
happened is about 35%. That means we are talking about 105 million
people.
Iran has a population of 71 million and I wager most of them are not
deniers.


Thailand tsunami - US 15 million dollars in relief money. What was
needed
was 2 billion dollars. Where did it come from? Not the US.


Some sort of proof of these numbers you keep pulling out of your ass

would
be just peachy.


You don't remember the heat that Bush took when he only pledged the 15
million? Were you paying attention? And if you want proof, it's all on
Google. I don't play the cite game. Feel free to post your results.

You don't play the cite game because you are either too lazy to
research or you don't have any "sites to cite." Refusal to back up
your fantasy noted.


I do it if I am asked politely by people who have a genuine interest in the
truth. If I am accused of posting BS before a rude demand for proof, why
should I play into it? The poster has already concluded, with no personal
knowledge, that I made it up. So why should I show a gesture of respect to
somebody who has disrespected me? That is the cite game and it is not a
respectful request for facts, it is a pre-established rejection of the
facts.

Google it. I did. .
