History will remember Egyptian President Anwar El Sadat  (25 December 1918 - 6 October 1981) as a man of Peace, a loyal friend to Iran's Shah as well as a staunch foe to Khomeiny's Islamic Fundamentalism. The Man of Peace was Assassinated by Fundamentalists On 6 October 1981.

was a class act no doubt. Good that he is gone and he does not have to witness rise of yet another  islamo facist republic in his home land shortly to come.

God bless Sadat

Death to the Islamic Republic. May Khomeini rot in hell forever. I want to desecrate Khomeini's grave. Remove his worm eaten carcass from his tomb and put it on trial and then set fire to his bones. I want to take his mausoleum destroy it and build a toilet or whore house over it. 

 The same with Khalkali and the other members of the IR who have to be put on trial and executed. They MUST not be buried on Iranian soil.As soon as they are executed their bodies must burn on an open pior and their ashes scattered into Mecca. There must be no sign of their existence every again. 

Please carry out the greatest sacrifice and civil duty and Iranian can make. Please support target assassinations of all Sepah, Basij, Ansare Hezbollah, Revolutionary Guards, ministers, ambassadors and official diplomats of this regime. 

I ask Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Mobarak and President Obama to conduct a vigorous assassination policy of all members of the Islamic Republic both in Iran and beyond.

President Obama MUST arm an Iranian liberation army and I call on the US Congress to release funds to give effect to this plan.  

Death to the Islamic Republic.

Two great peacemakers: Sadat and Pahlavi

by SOS-FREE-IRAN on

Thank you for this good historical account. We need more frequent reminders of the GREAT secular democratic leaders of middle east who brought prosperity, education, and peace for their people and the region. God bless Pahlavi and Sadat. Both men dedicated their lives to freeing their country from hands of British Terrorist Muslims. However, the British outsmarted them both with their mercenaries who spread blood libel.

Why don't we begin to meddle in British affairs? Call for the overthrow of the blood-drenched British Monarchy? A Monarchy built on theft and slaughter of indigenous people all over the world? Why don't we start publishing articles on the vast wealth of British Monarchy? Their $500 billion hidden in their own private banks? Their 2 billion acres of land in New Zealand, Canada, England, America, Africa, etc.  Why don't we denounce the HOuse of Windsor for assassinating Diana and her muslim lover? Why don't we denounce the British Crown for their massacre in India, Bangladesh, Ireland, Iran, Kenya, Tasmania, and North America?

Why don't we expose the British crown for funding death squads in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Iran, Ireland, Africa? For their silence in the genocide that is occurring in Iran for 32 years? Why is the British Crown silent? Is it because the Islamic Republic is their loyal servant? Is it because Islamic Republic is implementing their program to depopulate Iranian plateau so they can extract the oil without all this headache? To use all means to break up Iran?

Lets face it - the biggest terrorist sponsor in this world is the British Government - Monarchy.  Why do you think their social welfare works? because Iran's oil is funding their lavish lifestyles, their social welfare system, their people's education, their BBC, their education, all their public works? While Iranian students - male and female are bottle raped, tortured, murdered, and commit suicide.

Why don't we expose the British for their lies? For feigning to be poor? it is a peculiar British trait to pretend to be poor. Why do they feign to be in a deficit when in actuality their coffers and banks are overflowing with trillions and trillions in savings from Iran's oil? Why doesn't any one put the atrocities of the British crown on mainstream TV for all to see everyday? Why don't we hear it daily in the news? Why aren't world leaders, like Mr. Carter calling for the overthrow of British Monarchy for its human rights violations? Why make an exception for these racist anglosaxons who are sucking the blood out of Iran and Iranians and the world?

Is there a poison pill for these blood sucking vampires? When will national media report their crimes? their genocide? their theft? their accomplices? Sir Ayatollah Khomeini and Sir Ralph St. John (Rafasanjani"? When will news media ignore the nuclear issue and focus on the genocide in Iran? 

When will the smoke screen be cleared so we can see the genocidal activity of the British Crown in Iran and the world?

Thank you for reminding us that the dictators were friends too!

God bless them for bringing so much misery to Iran by making the return of another dictator khomeini possible! You sure have lots of time in your hand.

Is a small gift for such a great person for all his benevolents for the egyptians,israelis and most important opening his arms and house to late shah and his family unconditionally .
Thank you mr.kadivar. Maziar

Never late to learn

by comrade on

I didn't know Sadat had been charged with the so-called collaboration with the Germans in his youth, neither did I know that he started his historical speech at the Knesset by saying: "In the name of Allah"....small, little things but still...

Thanks Dear Kadivar for your timely blog.
