No, I'm not joking. It doesn't matter how many times Ahmadinejad is asked if he means something he did not say. If you will read his answers to the interviewers questions, he is actually quite clear in his response. He says nothing about attacking Israel but he does say the…
So when the bloke accuses Ahmadinejad of saying it, I dont think he knows what he is talking about.
He made the speech in October of 2005. You mean to tell me you think he still doesn't know what everyone is talking about, including those in his own country?…
Heh, I guess the Iranians writing these banners didn't understand Farsi correctly either, huh?
Virulent anti-Israel sentiment remains strong in the hard-line circles from which Ahmadinejad emerged to win the presidential election in June. "Israel Should Be Wiped Off the Map" was the slogan draped on a Shahab-3 ballistic missile…

Yes, generally they do actually. I read IRNA quite often and their translations are quite accurate and quite detailed. In addition, could you point me in the direction of a statement by the president…
Very well thought-out posts. I agree with your sentiments. In addition, I think it is high time that parents were expected to take a bigger interest in their children. Japan is becoming a country where children barely know their parents even if they see them every day.
