[Balaajk]

that women was probably a spy.

[kneenobla]

well...at least they dont have homos....lolz!!

[3rdWorldUnite]

ok, so how about the US elections? Are they not staged.

It's easier for me to believe the legitimacy of the Iranian elections than that of American elections.

The only reason people want to believe the election is rigged is because they can't fathom the idea that a hardcore revolutionary like Ahmadinejad can remain president.

Why not question Obama's presidency. At least Ahmadinejad practices what he preaches.

[111256able]

The Internet is every goverment's enemy SO,whats the BIG DEAL????

[111256able]

Why do the westaern media create the feeling of fear about Iran?Well,the weaponary industries must do that because wi th the collapse of soviet Union"theres no nation to be fearful about!!and thats bad for business!!So,a new fear is created now...OoooooIran have nukeOoooIran is DANGEROUS!!!!Buy more weapons!!!middleeast countries....Buy more WEapons world!!!!! yea yea good sales strategy!!!we are all pawns....yea v yea ...we are also.....foooools

[111256able]

Long live Ahmadenajad!!

[headlightdog]

dudes has a cone head

[rswoods7]

Does the zennie reply to comments? Why are you posting these hateful videos against Iran? We have no business in their homeland, and if we don't stay out of it they will come to our homeland and make business here. It won't be pretty. I thought we learned this lesson at 9/11. You must be one of those republicrats that wants to see us barrel through the third world raping their countryside and building McDonald's. The US is too broke for that and most taxpayers are tired of footing the bill

[oik2]

what a steaming pile of horseshit.

[Teresa6840]

Excellent video.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #10: Fraud happened because of the lack of transparency.

TRUTH: Each candidate had their own representatives conducting observations in every polling center.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #9: The ballots were counted by officials favoring Ahmadinejad.

TRUTH: There are over 600,000 people involved in the conduct of the elections. Those who counted the actual ballots were comprised of teachers, professionals and civil servants. Its seemingly impossible for so many people to be involved in a plot. Especially to create an 11 million vote difference between Ahmadinejad and Mousavi.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #8: There was fraud because the ballots were stuffed with Ahmadinejad ballots before polls opened.

TRUTH: The ballot boxes were sealed before the polls opened. Each ballot box had 14 observers sign off and testify that the boxes were empty.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #7: The election was rigged because there was over 100% turnout in some districts

TRUTH: Iranians are not required to register before voting. Iranians are off work on Fridays and they can travel. Voters are able to vote at any location they wish in the entire country. All that is required is a national ID

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #7: The election was rigged because there was over 100% turnout in some districts

TRUTH: Iranians are not required to register before voting. Iranians are off work on Fridays and they can travel. Voters are able to vote

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #6: The election was rigged because the polls showed a deadheat.

TRUTH: Only Mousavi's biased polling surveys showed himself ahead. However the majority of polls done showed Ahmadinejad ahead. Most independent polling showed Ahmadinejad ahead. Even Terror Free Tommorrow's polling showed Ahmadinejad ahead 2 to 1. Why the Western media portrayed a deadheat is suspicious.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #5: The election was rigged because voter turnout was too high.

TRUTH: The voter turnout was 85%. A very impressive statistic for any democratic election. In fact, former CIA agent Bob Baer in Time Magazine said the CIA concluded that the Iranian turnout would be 89%. Ahmadinejad was also projected to have a large win.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #4: There was not enough time to vote

TRUTH: The polling stations were open from 9 a.m. and officially closed at 9 p.m. However in some provinces, the polling stations were open as late as 2 a.m. to accommadate the long lines and late voters.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #3: There were ballot shortages

TRUTH: There were some ballot shortages in some precincts. However, there was over 60 million ballots printed. 2 million extra ballots were printed on election day to alleviate the shortages. There was plenty of ballots in case voters made errors.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #2: The votes were rigged because Mousavi lost in his hometown.

TRUTH: Mousavi is an ethic Azeri. The provinces of East Azerbaijan and West Azerbaijan were split: One went to Mousavi and one went to Ahmadinejad. However, a think tank known as "Terror Free Tommorrow" (results can be found on the internet) found that Azeris favored Ahmadinejad 2 to 1. Western media seems to think Iranians choose their leaders based on "tribe" rather than merit.

[TheLegitHeel]

Iranian election myth #1: The votes were counted too fast.

TRUTH: There were 39.2 million total votes. There were 45,713 ballot boxes. That means there were 860 votes per ballot box. With 1 person counting each ballot box, it would take only 3 hours to complete the count. The ballot itself only asked the voter to choose a Presidential candidate. Therefore, each vote could be counted very quickly.

[mrdabc]

All those statistics that predicted fall of the ruling government in India were trashed by the results recently. Iran is another case.

what happened in iran is that ahmadinejad addressed the larger population (middle & lower income groups) outside the metros who voted for him.

iranians staying outside the country have seized this opportunity thinking they can get rid of islamic government - little they know that mousavi is just about the same as ahmadinejad with politics.

[sooofull]

Ahmadinajad has a big crowd in Iran and the world.

Viva Najad

[Irankhordad1388]

I agree, the Iranian government harsh reaction to people protesting by beating and killing its own citizens shows how true is this election and how islamic is the government.

Thanks to the Internet, everyone now knows what AhmadiNejad and his police do to men and women, old and young - especially in the name of islam in the "Islamic" Republic of Iran!

[rswoods7]

Speak for yourself. What we really need is more leaders like him, especially in America.

[lthom33]

We just got rid of someone like him - not going to happen twice.

[rswoods7]

Bush was nothing like Ahmadinejad. Rigging elections does NOT make you a good leader, it's what you do in between those masquerades of democracy. Ahmadinejad has Iran's best interests in mind. Bush orchestrated two foreign wars that now have us in shambles. Do you want to start another one to screw up Iran? So we can have more 9/11s, more government insolvency, more imperialist folly? Why not just stay out of it when it has nothing to do with us?

[lthom33]

Ahmadinejad was involved with killing innocent people who were peacefully protesting. You're attempting to make him sound human which goes beyond all reasoning. I don't want to go to war with Iran - I agree w/you in the sense that we need to remain out of their business but we also must keep in eye on missiles. We can't allow extremists to have weapons but it's an issue for the world to solve not just us.

[rswoods7]

The only group he'd use those missiles on is Israel, which I have no problem with. The United States gives more foreign aid to Israel than we give to all other nations combined, and need I mention again that we're bankrupt? Not only that, but they control the (federal reserve) printing and issuing of our money and do so on interest , further compounding our financial problems. I hope Putin sells him all the missles he can afford... at a discount...

[lthom33]

Israel has a lot to answer for - they need to get out of Gaza and West Bank. If not we need to cease giving them weapons and aid. We spend billions in Israel so that they can take that money and kill innocent people -I know all about Israel. I don't like missiles in the hands of people like Ahmadinejad - he's a radical who doesn't care about his own people. Any war with Israel will involve us as well.

[jackson32]

A highly reputable polling firm did an independent uncensored nationwide poll 3 weeks before the election which showed that Ahmadinejad had more than twice as much support as Mousavi. Conducted by telephone from a neighboring country, field work was carried out in Farsi by a polling company whose work in the region for ABC News and the BBC has received an Emmy award.

The groups' May 11-20 polling consisted of 1,001 interviews across Iran and had a 3.1 percentage point margin of error.

[Jane1620]

Please get help. You need it. The election was a fraud.

[Agent1W]

Hey...you BUSH-HATERS, you gettin' this?!!! Are you gonna go blame Bush for this now?

Good news is, you have a new leader to blame!

You are aiding and abetting the murder, terrorism and criminality, as you kill over two million Iraqis and helped the Israeli Holocaust on Gaza, and now you are trying to sabotage on the Iranians after all the Failures for sieging them for decades, you are the hate is in all its aspects,in the end you will be "defeated" as it says on your bible

[XxaborataxX]

Fuckin islamic regime !

They are all fuckin arab-gay-pussys!

[ramibar1980]

unfortunately for all of you and for all the Zionists in the world , IRAN will remain strong and will get even stronger

[undergroundresistor]

@ramibar1980:

Which Iran are you talking about? Ayatollah's Iran or the Iranian people's Iran?

[watchoutwhat]

What? Iranian culture? And what can you say about American culture??

DUH

Iranians fighting for freedom on the streets are more admirable than naive, materialistic, mediocre americans who don't even do anything against their corrupt and criminal politicans who even cunningly destroyed thousands of their fellows in the controlled demolition of WTC just for the sake of oil profiteerings for greed.

[fgah]

You are right.

Nowadays,White American has no souls but naive arrogance and ignorant world view; that is why they are not welcome around the globe,in Europe, Asia, India, Africa and even in Canada. They have no concept or interest of democracy and liberty which were defined in detail by the founder of USA. They only interest in Mafia type Capitalism and virtue economy.

[Huddie1739]

You are an idiot. The percentage of White America is smaller and smaller every year. White Americans are a minority in the US. If the US is so stupid and naive and ignorant, its all the other races. White American people are more educated and less violent and impoverished than any other race in the country. White people are awesome!

[fgah]

education has no relevance of tolerance in race and international perception in USA; college education in your country is merely a tool of money making that is why US have ton of Wall Street crooks while in short supply of thinkers.White American still control and occupies the national even though Obama is the Present of Unite Stated. Instead, you are the idiotic instead.

[p3rsiangoddess7]

it kills me to know that the government would put us through such shit!

though i dont live in iran right now i am a proud iranian and i have family there

they should not put up with ahmadinejad for god sake,

can anyone take him seriously?

why would these akhoonds think he beats mousavi>

because mousavi offers more freedom?

if our voices could be heard..

[VidWorldNews]

Arm yourself people,,,,,go Iran

[PostingID]

Yes...there is something unsavory going on with the Iran government and the people protesting sounds like they are filled to the brim with disgust of Ahmadinejad. In fact it appears to be more protesters in the street, than the amount that voted.  It is a revolution...almost unreal just viewing it.

I hope it is not put down and ends like the Tiananmen Square (China) protest.

People worldwide are thoroughly fed up with "despot" governments...my prayers go out to the Iran protesters...

[arya599]

Unfortunately, this will not be a revolution i do not think. Bare in mind that the goverenment has not sent their army to meeet the demonstrators. Iran has one of the most powerful armies in the world. And with such ruthless and dirty people running it (ayatollahs) they will be prepared to kill as many people as they want, and the worst thing is they can probably get away with it.

[Truth666]

Handbook of rigged elections, from Bush 2004 to Ahmadinejad 2009

same as in US 2004 and 2008 (McCain with 5 million mulitplied by 12) or Stalin's 99.8% of the votes.

THEY (or in the computerized version, their software) do not let anyone else count the votes.

Difference to McCain: Ahmadinejad does NOT play the loser role in the illuminati script.

/////// Google ////////

iran-hoax MattMarriott

[jabberwolf]

1- Stalin made sure no one was running against him. there was no fraud there, just a dictator.

2- Even with some fraud, USA, the % is so small, that its negligible. There will always be someone like Acorn trying to justify their hypocrisy and alter results.

3- Ahmadinejad simply did a last minute job, and a very VERY atrociously bad job of trying to commit fraud.

[jamed2catch]

maybe....

[snuckyr]

thank you!!!

great commentary

[mrgerbeck]

Your title is a troll and silly. Look up the word "culture".

[jimisback]

Not the same thing now is it? Look, Iran has had a shitty election. It will be seen. And I think we will bow to him. As well as N. Korea like the UN has. Sad really. I hope I am 100% wrong here.

[jimisback]

America needs to drill again. Again oil is going up. It would have taken ten years to get oil. 2 years ago. That would be 8 years now. But now it is back to 10 again. 2 years from now we would have been half way there. But we won't, it will be 10 years again. And yes OIL prices increase all prices.

[jamed2catch]

true, but US doesn't have enough oil resources to drill. it could only supply the nation for 3-5 months. therefor, US is reserving it for the future. a government like US has thought of what you've thought. There is now way they wouldn't drill if there wasn't a catch.

[jimisback]

There is plenty of oil to bring prices under control. China is going to drill in the Gulf, Cuba off the coast of florida. We don't have to do away with foriegn oil alltogether. Drilling will bring prices down. Just SAYING we will drill will bring down prices.

[jamed2catch]

That's where you are wrong!!! China and Cuba have no hope to support a large group of the world. Russia however will, after North Pole's ice collapses. Long story Short, oil will always stay up because the rate of humans are rising to an even higher rate than pervious years, people on average have 3 cars, and the use of objects which require oil are rising. Your basing your info in today's world, i'm talking about the future.

[jimisback]

So I base it on fact rather than speculation.

[BeastSoulEyes]

We are in deep shit!!!

Smeely deep shit!!

[jimisback]

AL GORE didn't carry his home state.

[Magnified100]

The funniest thing is that Mr. Karoubi only got 0.9% of the votes. LOLLL. THATS IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He was even more popular than ahmadinejad. They tried to humiliate Karoubi because he was very aggressive towards ahmadinejad.

What an armature lie!!!!

[SYDPKdotcom]

Not just harmed. The whole foundation of America's ability to sustain it's foreign debt is that every country and person and company in the world needs to buy $US to buy oil or gas in the world's major energy markets.

[SYDPKdotcom]

That is why countries buy a share of America's debt and let the people of America continue to have some of the cheapest petrol and energy in the world, and the political system based on appealing to people's desire to be decadent and the dominance of the military-industrial-banking-po­litical-complex continues to flourish.

Spread the love...

[jamed2catch]

Iran doesn't use US dollar after Ahmadinejad became president, in order to buy Iranian oil, it must be made through a trade or Euro.

Haven't you wondered why Euro is much more valuable now and that the Canadian dollar is almost the same value as US?

[RajakarNizamiSyedi]

completely agree

this is just a US policy

but it wont work

[SYDPKdotcom]

This is why Iran (in a way) represents the only hope for the world. Only with the collapse of America's Wasteful Empire, the banking system that dominates it, and a balancing of international and local economies can we tackle the world's problems.

The fastest way to achieve this is for the Euro (or something else) to become the new global reserve currency, and for America's foreign debt to really hit the people of America, to WAKE THEM UP to how the world really works, and all the evil they do.

[jamed2catch]

That reporter is said to have copied a high classified document, but since she didn't use it, she was released.

[vaisanava]

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the new George Bush of the Middle East. Its going to be interesting to watch Iran sink deeper into the despotism of .a religious oil monarchy. The world markets are going to see turmoil as the oil jockeys run their horses amuck through consumers of democratic principles. I forsee pain for the Iranian society as religious cronies struggle for political survival. Take it from an American this kind of leadership only leads to fear and hateful diatribe.

[jamed2catch]

maybe....but, why doesn't the world understand, Ahmadinejad or no Ahmadinejad, the supreme leader has final word in Iran. So technically, Iran's been like this since 1981 after the death of Khomeini, so if Iran is advancing, it's cuz of the supreme leader, if it's going down, it's still cuz of supreme leader.

[SYDPKdotcom]

You are in my opinion, wrong. Yes there will be pain for Iran but it will be caused by the people who have the most interest in maintaining the US dollars domination over global energy markets, to sustain the foreign debt for imperial purposes. They are Bush family inclusive. Ahmadinejad might just strengthen the Iranian oil bourse among OPEC enough to topple the American war machine, and prevent millions from suffering and dying.

[venusearenusva]

thx man, im living in tehran and im happy that u show to the world that this election was FAKE.

[limonare]

Thank you for the video.

[mtwib]

A non-free press sets the stage for lots of things, but the same argument can be used for western media which is obligated to shareholders. I mean look at the case of #CNNfail ignoring the breakout story for about two days after the election. I think the point you are making is too broad, you are questioning the entire framework (I think to call it Iranian "culture" is offensive to those Iranians protesting tbh) when the issue at hand is-- evidence that this specific elections was rigged.

[mtwib]

No no no!!!! You are using it as "evidence" that the election was rigged... I am saying the press there has NEVER been free. The status quo there is restriction of press freedoms, specially during any kind of protests. It can't be used as evidence for rigging... But the internet is normally not blocked (although censored) and people are free to send SMS messages, but these were all BLOCKED during the night of the election or were very shoddy-- there was a CHANGE from the status quo. Evidence.

[mtwib]

No A Free Press is good... my point is here, that in Iran, the press has not been free for the past 30 years! There is no historical precedent. You are using it to argue lack of press freedom must indicate rigging in this specific election, when in reality it doesn't. What DOES is the fact that on election night basically every form of communication was cut/slowed down... that indicates that there was a possibly nefarious reason somebody felt that people should not be communicating.

[mtwib]

My comment was eaten, Zennie, there are a few problems with the arguments you make #1 re: media restriction is irrelevant, the media and journalists are very restricted in Iran anyway, your point re:Saberi was not post election and is irrelevant to whether there was any rigging or not. Also it makes sense for this govenrment (given historical precedence) to crack down on journalists in high tension times (again doesn't prove rigging) what DOES indicate fishiness is cutting of SMS and internet.

[l1998]

who gives a fuck man ? lol

[SpearMaster]

You obviously don't understand how important this is.
