i (allegedly) share more than 99.7% of the same dna as the president of iran. not sure what you expect of me or my posts, but if i were to be less general and focus on the less than 0.3% of the dna we do not have in common, then maybe i could offer you less "generalisation". ...
...those on this thread who are pro-Ahmadinejad are obviously in favor of one person ruling over the planet, instead of groups of specialities in their fields coordinating with eachother.

You may or may not have been researching this before my 'ass was born', the point is that's pure speculation because you have no idea how long this 'ass' has been roaming around on this earth.
In any case, ...

I suspect that what you meant was "anyone who likes this Iranian Leader doesn't have a brain."
I was politely saying that you're full of fluff and nonsense.
You went on to prove it with your mathematical reply.
'Nuff said?

But the critical part is what the people tolerate.
“Within this philosophy we can talk of ethical values, human rights and freedom as long as it does not endanger the maximum materialistic interests and it is just used as a political means against others.
Based on this philosophy the worst behaviors against human beings and the most violent dictatorship are permitted and practicing multi standard policies and behaviors is possible whenever it deems necessary. Slavery, world wars the first and the second and other conflicts in the previous century and in the early of the present century have caused by the same philosophy.
It is quite clear that we cannot expect those structures based on the materialistic philosophy to render honest and clear services to the human beings.”
” The first precondition for realization of such philosophy is promotion of cooperation, interaction and collaboration among our governments and by extent all governments who wish to join us in this process. We need to prepare the ground for just participation of all parties in the world management.
It is proposed that given the remarkable intellectual, cultural, scientific economic and political capacities of the member states, a permanent committee comprising representatives of the member states to be assigned to produce the relevant theoretical frameworks for exercising changes and based on these frameworks introduce their strategies in order to be included in the G15 agenda after adoption by the Heads of States.”

Of course Iran treats its people horribly. If you believe the CIA was behind the 79 coup, then you can spread that blame around a little. But the critical part is what the people tolerate. And the people tolerate this. Just the same as us Americans. I do not pity the political situation of any nation. It is merely the sum of its citizens desires.

you assume so much that your post is laughable. im still laughing
Oh my, assumptions? Dear sir, you tell others they have no clue of what's happening because they don't speak Farsi or don't know Iranians, or don't have evidence for their claims. I'll tell you that I am Iranian. I've heard the stories, I've seen the scars. Go ahead, try to tell me I'm wrong. While you're laughing at my 'assumptions' allow me to laugh at your ignorance. Ha-ha.
Wcitizen is pretty much correct in his statements and claims.
The reason I am speaking out like this now is because seemingly some people in the conspiracy circle have come to think that mr. Ahmadinejad is a saint because his typewriting monkeys can scan and copy/paste pieces of text that speak to the people already on the edge with their own government.
If you wanted a proper word for it: Propaganda. And you are eating it up.

bfft - that's exactly what I've been trying to say.
If i didn't care, if i did not effort to like President Ahmadinejad, and understand his point of view, i wouldn't be here discussing it. But, there are certain variables that effect my "opinion maker".
Perhaps my english is not so good as I've been living in England for the last 28 years!
I'll assume that ET is working on a much higher plane than I'm capable of and in future, I won't waste time trying to communicate with 'im.
