Ahmadinejad Will Speak At Columbia Forum

Submitted by Leila, Sep 24, 2007 12:43

I don't like at all what the president has "supposedly" said. I would never want to wipe any country off the face of the map. I have many close Jewish friends that I cherish and would die if anything ever happened to them. That being said, the president's words have been jumbled by the US media. He said to wipe "extremism" out of the human experience, not to drop a bomb on Israel. This is nothing but propaganda getting American's ready for a war w/Iran. Iran has nothing to do with the killing of US soldiers in Iraq. You can thank your president for that. I have seen Ahmadinejad speak on numerous occasions and he is filled with love for all the world, including the Jewish population. What he opposes is the killing of innocent Palestinians. I think we should all oppose that. Is it not the holocaust (to a lesser extent) but all over again? 60 years of occupation.....learn to live together and stop being monsters. I am so proud of Iranian President Ahmadinejad for being so strong and standing up to all the hypocrisy in the US and Israel. Your bombs will not stop Iran or anyone....they will only create more terrorist. Let's stop ignorance and start to learn the real facts.
