Its funny I noticed that most of you guys running your mouth and you are not in Iran but living in peace creating countries.

Why not get your lil' daiper raps on your heads and move out there?I'm sure the space you are occupying in those countries will have better breathing spaces when you leave.

[arbighookasian]

israel or state of shit BAGS it will eventually happen but question is when, just like romans or soviets or natzis all fashist governments come to an end you think not then think twice

[Irishsouthdub]

US Media fabricates media !!

You liar ! I'm joking ! Yep, US Media are the dogs of this world protecting their guardians

[jumpnjza2]

When Ahmadenijad refers to 'the Imam', he was referring to Khomeini. Very old statement, rehashed media brainfart...

"[In Israel] journalists enjoy a freedom not found elsewhere in the region."

- Reporters Without Borders, 2007_

Source: "Israel - Annual Report 2007," Reporters Without Borders Web site

According to 'Reporters Without Borders' Iran continues to be the largest prison for the press in the Middle East, and in the organization's annual estimation on freedom of the press in the world in 2007 Iran ranks as number 166 out of 169 total countries.

funny that you say that, israel banned many journalists from entering during the recent bombings. im sure they didn't want their crimes against humanity publicized. infact many journalist who tried to enter or were broadcasting from the palestinian side ended up "accidently" beaten and hurt... OH YEH hamas walks around with big cameras and mics alll the time...its part of their personal youtube blogs =/. i suggest you educate yourself if you ever want to be part of the solution. which i doubt.

[onebobtwo]

yea. that was fucked up the way they invaded germany back in the day.

i have been brought to tears by what is going on around the world. my name is steven. i'm 21 years old. i registered republican this year to vote for ron paul in the primaries. this is the first time i have registered to vote. regardless of my political views, i'm a sucker for the message of peace. all men being created equal, i think we should try to get along. much love to everyone who reads this.

If one day, the Islamic world is also equipped with weapons like those that Israel possesses now, then the imperialists' strategy will reach a standstill because the use of even one nuclear bomb inside Israel will destroy everything. However, it will only harm the Islamic world. It is not irrational to contemplate such an eventuality.

Turn off your television and stop listening to the mainstream media. Only then can your mind be freed to receive the truth.

[onebobtwo]

What he really said in FARSI is:

'Imam ghoft een rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods bayad az safheh-ye ruzgar mahv shavad'

meaning directly in english

The Imam said this regime occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time

since when did americans care about the truth?

[paigesix10]

that is one of the most ignorant statements i have ever heard. TRUE there is a vast majority of appathy in the usa, but education is the only cure for such an attrocity as the american ignorance. many americans care about the truth, unfortunately the american media does not provide for this growing group of people. thus other countries as well get an even more negative view of the land and its population.

[onebobtwo]

"a vast majority of appathyin the usa" &

"many americans care about the truth".

so that makes me an ignorant father in america & you an insightful mother in the usa. good 4 u.

[paigesix10]

" TRUE there is a vast majority of appathy in the usa, but education is the only cure for such an attrocity as the american ignorance. many americans care about the truth, unfortunately the american media does not provide for this growing group of people"

im glad you see my point. i like how you quoted bits and pieces of my comment, like 60 minutes did for the speach above. 2 thumbs WAY up!

[onebobtwo]

these daze i'm glad if i can see my hand in front of my face. must be all my yrs of misunderstanding.

[paigesix10]

must be sir, must be.

[lavamannnnn]

Why would a country hold its press hostage unless it has something to hide???

According to the Reporters Without Borders Press Freedom Index for 2007, only

three other countries - Eritrea, North Korea and Turkmenistan - have more restrictions on news media freedom than Iran.[75] Its 2007 report on Iran says "Dozens of journalists were arrested in 2006 for criticising the authorities and some were imprisoned in secret in difficult conditions without access to a lawyer." [76]

[onebobtwo]

wow. that is terrible.

makes me feel very grateful

to be living here in the U.S.

makes me wonder what business we had overthrowing the shah of iran

in the first place.

i understand it to have been

about corporate profit

it surely wasn't for the benefit

of the iranian people

[coc0puff]

um.. the shah was placed there by the american government, he was overthrown by his people when they got fed up of him slipping american dollars in his pocket to be good ol' uncle sams puppet. wherever there's corruption be sure america is involved, and not in a good way. iran, iraq, vietnam...

[sanchosteve]

i think we are all on the same page, onebobtwo. i think we all want to talk, and also to listen to what eachother has to say. i wouldn't interpret his response as a direct opposition to your comment. we are all very close to attaining sustainable peace, and the closer we get, the more people are inspired with hope.

[onebobtwo]

good points in what ways do you think

"we are all very close to attaining  sustainable peace"?

[sameeh86]

gr8 vid..bro..keep posting

[redscorpionx1]

And now after the report...the U.S gov is pwned...since it has lost credibility to their previous claims of Iran producing Nuclear Weapons.

I mean f**k off...you bomb places around the world...nuked Japan..and raped half the planet

and bully other nations not to develop Nuclear Energy!

This is paranoia to the extreme.

[mylesmadrid]

anyone have a link to the video ?

[kiingkhan07]

gud one .. mate dahs wat western media iz like

spreads loads of bullshit about islam 2...

[akhabbazian]

impressive

[kschumannjr]

Well put, you have done a great job here. I only hope Israel can put aside their hatred of Arabs and coexist peacefully with their neighbors.

[paigesix10]

that has to go both ways too, i agree with you 100% but the fact of the matter is it takes retaliation on both ends to keep a war going for as long as it has

[lavamannnnn]

Although most agreed that Iraq was years away from being able to build a weapon, the Iranians and the Israelis felt any raid must occur well before nuclear fuel was loaded to prevent contamination.

Iran attacked and damaged the [Iraqi Osiraq nuclear] site on September 30, 1980 with two F-4 Phantoms, shortly after the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War.[6]

So i guess its okay for Irans Airstrikes against Nuke Plant of a country that threatened its existence (Saddam)...

so why cant Israel??

[cyberpass]

wow!

[humanbeforeall0]

Nothing new man , lies lies same as the Iraq lies , then war... well sad ..

Long live Iranians & Iran ("EARUN: Land of Aryans"), the 4000-year-old nation which like a Sun has been shining civilization culture sciences & arts over this planet since the very early dawn of history. The evil forces of oppression & darkness, today headed by the apartheid Zionist regime of ethnic cleansing & its Necon traitor agents hiding in the ranks of U.S. Government, cannot stand the bright light of culture civilization love & compassion emitting from the Iranian Plateau.
