“The establishment of the Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world,” the President told a conference in Tehran entitled ‘the world without Zionism.”

If Ahmadinejad wants to destroy Palestine, now is called Israel, why a conference on “Zionism” and not on “Israel.” Beside Iran never voted for division of Palestine and has always said, before and after the revolution, one country for all. Iran like billions of people all over the world is against Zionism and has no problems with the Jews. In fact Zionism is the one which intends to wipe the Jews off the map through its racist ideology combine with act of terrorism to maintain a partied system which has already become illegitimate. Facts on the ground show very clearly who has wiped whom off the map. It is the time to stop repeating lies and deception to cover your crimes against humanity.

TEHRAN — Dozens of students opposed to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s human rights record confronted the leader and his supporters today at the country’s most prestigious university.

The students, defying a broad government crackdown on DISSENT, accused Ahmadinejad of corruption and discrimination and chanted “death to the dictator.”

Ahmadinejad, reviled in the West for denying the Holocaust and calling for the destruction of Israel, cuts a divisive figure at home. His government has tolerated little DISSENT, arresting students, purging free-thinking professors and cracking down on young men and women wearing Western-style clothing.

You deny what Ahmadinejad actually stated, relying on a literal, but not an accurate, translation. deadbeat:

First, from Iran’s state-owned Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting – available still online:

Tehran, Oct 26 – Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Wednesday called for Israel to be ‘wiped off the map’.” Moreover, according to that official website: “‘As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map,’ said Ahmadinejad, referring to the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Imam Khomeini.

Here is the URL: http://www.iribnews.ir/Full_en.asp?news_id=200247

Second, from President Ahmadinejad’s own official website:

Speaking at a conference dubbed “World without Zionism’ here Wednesday which was attended by thousands of students, he said any country which acknowledges the Zionist regime will actually be acknowledging the surrender and defeat of the Islamic world. He further expressed his firm belief that the new wave of confrontations generated in Palestine and the growing turmoil in the Islamic world would in no time wipe Israel away.

Presumably, the President of Iran would correct the error if it really were an error. He does not and will note because it, not the literal translation, is the correct translation. And, it is exactly what he meant. Otherwise, he would not stand at rallies where his government hands out signs that say “Death to Israel.”

Dear Jaime (Hymie) and others:
Please read the article CAREFULLY – like the fourth paragraph- which says :
Last month, a man broke into OPEN safety deposit boxes in an ABM Amro bank in Antwerp’s diamond district and stole 120,000 karats of diamonds. The suspect had been a regular customer at the bank for the past year, and provided the name of an Argentinian. Authorities believe that the suspect was using a false identity since it was discovered that a passport in the same name was stolen in Israel several years ago.

How does one BREAK INTO OPEN SAFETY DEPOSIT BOXES!!!
Which OTHER communnity actually has this leeway?!?!?

Puh-lease Jaime – quit the internet – and join the REAL world – getting a job might help too.

“…you people need to pass the collection plate and spend less time on the internet….”

Wait, let me guess…some of your best friends are Jewish?

The Demographics of NYC was well known – especially after the ‘Hymie town’ quote by Rev. Jesse Jackson. I am pretty sure a lot of people – even ones that post here FOR Ahmadiejad – do not necessarly want to become the ‘best of friends’ per se with Iran. However, I am pretty sure – that a LOT of Americans are tired of subsidizing Israel with OUR tax dollars.
I mean – hey you guys control most of the finances of the world – so why don’t you guys STOP sucking away American tax payers money. Seriousy- and I do mean seriously. http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/2007/07/kiryas-joel-hou.html

Let not forget CRAZY EDDIE amongst a host of other criminals such as Jack Grubman and Abby Cohen as well as dozens of others of the SAME ilk.

The botton line in my view is – people would be a lot less angry and sympathetic to Israel – if half the criminals from the Jewish community didn’t just ‘happen’ to have dual citizenship in Israel, and most importantly if Israel would stop acting like a welfare mom with 60 kids both in and out of the US. I mean you people need to pass the collection plate and spend less time on the internet. Have some pride and stop asking for handouts from so many governments and actually support ISRAEL with YOUR own money..

I would also like to point out Eric’s curious use of “disgusting claims”. Would not “claims” have sufficed?

And Jaime,

How many times do you have to be told that gloating about Zionist influence doesn’t help your cause and makes the points that are leveled against you every time you do it?

Oh please you guys are so relentless. This misquote has been repudiated for fallacy that it is for one and the fact that Palestine has been “wiped off the map” means nothing to you. Iran is NO threat to Israel but Israel is a major threat to all the nations in the Middle East because of its racist ideology of expansion, domination and hegemony. Look at what they did to Lebanon last year and Lebanon was not only recovering from years of war but also become a major tourist destination rivaling that of Israel as well as becoming a destination for other trade and economic activity.

Power in the U.S. is held by a minority of people and Jews are not the only demographic group supportive of Zionism. Clearly Hillary Clinton is not Jewish. However Zionism does attract those racist element that were never addressed by the Civil Rights movement and has only thrived and flourished.

Thanks for the totally irrelevant demographic breakdown of Jews in NYC. It’s not numbers that make NYC a bastion of Zionism. It’s the disproportionate power of the numbers that do support Zionism.

That same was also true of white racism in the south. Nice try but all it does is expose your own racist beliefs.

Islam’s jihad is a struggle against idolatry, sexual deviations, plunder, repression, and cruelty. The war waged by [non-Muslim] conquerors, however, aims at promoting lust and animal pleasures. They care not if whole countries are wiped out and many families left homeless. But those who study jihad will understand why Islam wants to conquer the whole world. All the countries conquered by Islam or to be conquered in the future will be marked for everlasting salvation. For they shall live under [God’s law]

Evidently, the Iranians are not sending valentines to the Israelis but, instead, are arousing hatred and calls for death. Not very nice stuff.

As for the kindness of the Iranian revolutionaries, here is some of what According to the late Ayatollah Khomeini:

Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini

And:

Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war. Those [who say this] are witless. Islam says: Kill all the unbelievers just as they would kill you all! Does that mean that Muslim should sit back until they are devoured by [the unbelievers]? Islam says: Kill the [the non-Muslims], put them to the sword and scatter [their armies]. Does this mean sitting back until [non-Muslims] overcome us? Islam says: Kill in the service of Allah those who may want to kill you! Does this mean that we should surrender [to the enemy]? Islam says: Whatever good there is exists thanks to the sword and in the shadow of the sword! People cannot be made obedient except with the sword! The sword is the key to paradise, which can be opened only for holy warriors!

And:

There are hundreds of other [Koranic] psalms and hadiths [sayings of the prophet] urging Muslims to value war and to fight. Does all that mean that Islam is a religion that prevents men from waging war? I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.

And:

Islam makes it incumbent on all adult males, provided they are not disabled and incapacitated, to prepare themselves for the conquest of [other] countries so that the writ of Islam is obeyed in every country in the world…

Source: “Islam Is Not a Religion of Pacifists,” by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (1942).

Nice guys, unless, of course, you are not on their side.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_New_York_City#Jewish

The New York metropolitan area is home to the largest Jewish population in the world outside Israel. New York’s Jewish population in 2001 was approximately 1.97 million, 1.4 million more than in Jerusalem but 600,000 less than in Gush Dan, Israel’s largest metropolitan area; however, Tel Aviv proper (non-metro/within municipal limits) has smaller population than the Jewish population of New York City proper, making New York the largest Jewish community in the world.[[52] In 2002, an estimated 972,000 Ashkenazic Jews lived in New York City and constituted about 12% of the city’s population. New York City is also home to the worldwide headquarters of the Hasidic Chabad-Lubavitch group and the Bobover and Satmar branches of Hasidism.

The Jewish presence in New York City dates to the 1600s when a Jewish community relocated from Recife seeking freedom of worship. Major immigration of Jews to New York started in the 1880s, with the increase of antisemitism in Central and Eastern Europe. The number of Jews in New York City soared throughout the beginning of the 20th century and reached a peak of 2 million in the 1950s, when Jews constituted one-quarter of the city’s population. New York City’s Jewish population then began to decline because of low fertility rates and migration to suburbs and other states, particularly California and Florida. A new wave of Jewish immigrants from the former Soviet Union began arriving in the 1980s and 1990s. Many have settled in south Brooklyn and in parts of the Bronx; specifically middle-class neighborhoods, such as Riverdale.

The first Jewish immigrants settled mainly in the tenement houses of the Lower East Side. Today New York City’s Jewish population is dispersed among all the boroughs; Brooklyn’s Jewish population in 2003 was estimated 456,000, and Manhattan’s at 243,000.

While 3 quarters of New York Jews are not religious, the Orthodox community is rapidly growing, while the numbers of Conservative and Reform Jews are declining.

Like the Irish, the Jewish community has played an important role in New York City’s politics; Jewish voters traditionally vote in large numbers and have often supported politically liberal ideas.

However a similar stance is needed against Zionism especially in the “north” in places like New York.

Having once lived in NYC especially during the Koch years, Zionism help to usher in a visceral reaction against people of color (blacks and brown as well as Arabs and muslim). Black leader who tried to bring this to light were branded as “anti-semetic” or as “black racist”. Thus Zionist will use all available means to smear challengers. It is a very ugly practice and jamie’s posts are a continuation of the same tactics.

Zionism is the racism of the 21st century in the United States and must be confronted. Wouldn’t it be ironic if a group of organizers from the “south” travel by bus to New York City on a campaign to end Zionism.

Unfortunately Zionism has sprouted roots among southern evangelicals who needed a new group to overtly hate after overtly preaching against black people became unpopular.

Because of her history of racism, Zionism has found a home in the United States.
