Ahmadinejad toasts the Spiegel
First of all - and you ought to say that in germany if you donīt want to land in prison - I was bombarded with holocaust pictures and information in my youth so much that denying it seems impossible and irresponsible - two opposing regimes made use of the killing of jews for their own propagandistic views and it seems both fooling so many people would seem impossible - so with that out of the way I need to say that for my part I draw a clear line between the victims of nazi germany and the current Israeli government - I also draw a clear line between religious jews and political zionists - I also draw a clear line between the political powerelite in Israel and the young generation that is forced to obey orders from their supriors in their two year military enslavement that guys and girls have to get into when they just turn 18.
Now you might ask what this has to do with the interview that Ahmadinejad and the Spiegel did (and you canīt really tell who interviewed who but more on that later). Most see him as the tyrant of the modern age - comparing him to Hitler and such - and if you are exposed to the western translation of his speeches then this is mighty understandable - sadly most of what has been repeated over and over has not been said this clearly and directly as the western media wants people to believe and the interview with the Spiegel is a proof of that. Rather then an unintelligent maniac he answers the questions that he is given thoughtful he has point in half of them and he defuses lots of his earlier misrepresented statement. His ideas do make sense - I just which he would leave the Holocaust out of the game as this just draws the masses against him (and its slippery ground to argue - but read closely he says that if the holocaust happened - and he has not been exposed to the 10 years of school bombardment german kids get about it - then Europe and especially germany should do something to help the current conflict because they are responsible for it) - because his other statements are clear and that he turns around the interview and the highly acclaimed Spiegel needs to back down and defend its own propaganda is very hilarious. Yes Iran is cooperating with the IAEA - they do not seem to have an A-Bomb yet, Israel is not a member of the IAEA but has multiple atomic bombs - submarines from germany that carry those - and atomic power, the US is also not a member of the IAEA and threatening to use A-Bombs on Iran and developing "small" A-Bombs that have only a small area of influence (10 km eradication of everything and a 100km radius fallout) and yes Palistine has a democratic elected government and the west who supported the democracy is now withdrawing support because a party that is not to their liking is in power. And the cause of the highly educated intelligent first world Palestinians is after a 60 year rule of Israel in the region worse then ever - I personally have never understood why they could not rule this tiny small land where you can go by public bus from north to south in 6 hours together - just like there is consense in South Africa between the white and black and they rule succesfully together a country of diverse heritage. But when an Iranian president makes such remarks - especially when he is in the spotlight of American agression he accused of the worst crimes, he is blackmailed and put on mock trial - yet as he states Iran has NEVER attacked a country and probably never will - they are big enough they have enough resources to support their people. To see the propagandistic Spiegel crumble under their own questions that are basically just asked backward is a relieve to see.
I think a lot of european and western politicians could learn one thing from this guy: Say what you think without being afraid what the others would say about you - thats what makes a true politician and thats whats utterly missing from EVERY SINGLE POLITICIAN IN GERMANY EUROPE AND THE US. They are slimeballs going where the wind seems right and where the biggest petro-dollar bill is buried - the truth of their own personal feelings and thinking is forgotten in the glove compartment of their SUVs that drive on Iranian Oil.
