I just hope the guy finds what he's looking for.

Think he has according to:

The next day, Ahmadinejad and the 140-strong delegation departed from the posh Warwick Hotel in midtown. They split after members of his entourage loaded up shampoo, shoes, soap, vitamins and other items in short supply at home because of the economic sanctions the West has imposed on Iran to curb their nuclear ambitions.

He wanted clean sheets, and a shower.

well this article calls him a dictator when in reality he was voted in democratically, or at least the same way Obama or Bush were voted in

and 2, this article is talking about Ahmedinejad spending a few nights in a posh hotel, like Obama and all he other presidents and kings spend their nights in three star hotels going at $20 a night.

rest of the article is hogwash nonesense, title has nothing to do with the article

oh wait, its the dailymail, the same source that was trying to tell us that the bankers are evil guys and the politicians are the good guys trying to give money back to the public. pfft

So was Saddam,Assad, and Putin people love to go around calling Dictators "democratically elected", but seriously legitimate elections win by narrow margins.

Like Gore vs Bush? imo there are no free/fair elections,it's all put in trust into the very people that openly lie to us..
besides has anyone considered this man was forced to defect? keeping in mind he and his family will be marked for life,and he will spend most of his near future in an empty room,sometimes the grass isn't greener.

Is that so?

Then go tell all those Assad, and Ahmedinjad defenders their leaders were not democratically elected.

Ahmads cameraman said buh bye now I wonder why that is?

Cause Iran is not the lovey dovey country that so many people claim it to be?

Good chance.

Same goes both ways i'm afraid,if a US soldier defected or somebody with sensitive information,he/she would be 'marked' too,there is no doubt in my mind..

You have just now twisted this all the way around.

He wasn't a soldier but a cameramen and implied that his family would be marked because of it.

Of course a soldier would be marked and his family would be scrutinized if the soldier was active in sensitive information etc.

Apples and Oranges

Nice try though

It's not out of the realm of possibility that this guy was forced to defect,and i didn't twist anything around..apples and oranges are still fruit
And i hate to break it to you Neo,the US isn't so lovey-dovey either,i won't compare the two..

Tell me Pax, what country has Iran invaded in the last 200 years?

*que Jeopardy theme song*


What has Israel done? I don't know, 3 false flags against the US; The Lavon Affair, USS liberty and 9/11.

Still killing thousands in Gaza, and now want us to invade a peaceful country. Not only that, Israel is one of the most dangerous places for an Orthodox Jew to live in the Zionist regime called Israel.

I'm starting to get REAL tired of this pro Israel war mongering # on this website. It's as if this site turned into a cnn message board.

Jesus Christ take some shrooms and open your eyes!








Man this rabbi is pretty damn anti-Semitic isn't he?

What is wrong with you people? I'm not going to go as far as shill, but you have to be a complete moron to think that Iran is a war mongering terrorist state. It's the complete opposite.

And yes, Ahmadinejad is a badass and a scholar.

For those of you thinking Ahmaddinejad is not "that bad, actually rather charming", perhaps this article will shed new light.

I believe the situation is more dire than American's realize and certainly worse than our inept media portrays. What could be so horrible to force one to leave their country, home and job. Perhaps the rogue Iranian Pres. Is not as friendly as many of you think!

Just think about this for a moment......

Thanks for your time,
Pax

edit on 10/1/2012 by paxnatus because: (no reason given)

There is no nation, no national leader, as friendly as any of us think.

Any of us.

Any of us.

Even the leaders themselves.

May we have mercy + wisdom on ourselves, including our unfriendly leaders at home and abroad. <3

yet so many people will eat it up..

Anyone could be giving him money and assylum to claim that.....I have heard more substantial evidence to the contrary coming from A'Jahd himself then some unknown cameraman.

Also A'Jahd is a very smart guy.....

Our puppet wolves in sheeps clothing leaders can't articulate their phoniness.....as well as A'Jahd.......which shows me he doesn't provide lip sevice he actually thinks about what he says.

I don't think a villan in history cared enough to bring about such valid points in the name of political expediency

Thats my 2 cents...

Imo Your two cents goes a long way
Smart guy indeed with high expectations,but limited options, he hasn't provided the kind of lip service the west desires,but nor did Saddam..

Here is the latest on Golkanbhan, the camera man seeking asylum in the US.

New York (CNN) - A cameraman who accompanied Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to New York for the U.N. General Assembly has applied for asylum in the United States, and "he's afraid to return to Iran," his attorney said Monday.

New York City-based lawyer Paul O'Dwyer, who said he is working with U.S. authorities on behalf of Hassan Golkanbhan, said his client is afraid of persecution because of his perceived political beliefs.

"He's perceived as not being a supporter, or being an opponent of the Iranian regime," O'Dwyer said. "Somebody who has betrayed the regime and who can no longer be trusted by them."

Now can you blame this man? If anything I applaud his effort. It is no secret what has happened to the Iranian journalists that cross the regime. They are imprisoned or executed.

So now one needs to invade another country to be classified as terrorist threat?
Forget that the leader of a country threatens total annihilation and genocide to its much smaller neighboring country.

Just checking, want to make sure I've got my facts straight and this is not just an opinion. (Sarcasm)
