The State Of Israel According To Iran
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran
I am more than a little concerned about this pre-planned walkout in response to President Ahmadinejad’s speech at the United Nations anti-racism conference. I am no friend of his xenophobic, oppressive government and there is no doubt that his speech was inflammatory but there was a deal of truth in it too. This walkout was not in the spirit of “We will offer the hand of friendship if you will unclench your fist”.
There is no doubt that Israel is a racist government and a repressive and cruel one. These are matters of fact which were dramatically proved in the recent invasion of Gaza and which continue every day.
The boycott of this conference by many western countries and this petulant display by the British and the French do nothing to advance the cause against racism.
Anne Frank – The BBC Gets It Wrong Again
Isn’t it inappropriate, insensitive and downright crass of the BBC to be broadcasting ” The Diary Of Anne Frank” at a time when Palestinian children are being murdered by the Israelis?
Israel is behaving as a Nazi power. Gaza is the equivalent of the Warsaw Ghetto. For pity’s sake, 10 paramedics have been killed since the brutal, inhuman land invasion.
In other respects the BBC is so oversensitive as to be absurd. When John Sergeant resigned from “Strictly Come Dancing” it immediately offered refunds to anyone who had voted for him yet now, while women and children are massacred in Gaza by the evil Israelis, it wants us to watch this?
