Walking out on Ahmadinejad

Dozens of diplomats walk out on his speech as he accuses Israel as a "racist government"

CNN -- The opening of a United Nations conference in Switzerland on anti-racism was marred by chaotic scenes Monday as protests and a walkout by delegates disrupted a controversial address by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The presence of the Iranian leader at the conference had already prompted Israel to withdraw its ambassador from Switzerland, while several countries including the United States are also boycotting the gathering. Dozens of delegates walked out of the chamber as Ahmadinejad accused Israel and the West of making "an entire nation homeless under the pretext of Jewish suffering ... in order to establish a totally racist government."

So what?

by Souri on

Why you guys are so surprised? I don't understand.

We all know Israel and we all know Ahmadi-nejad and we knew already what would be the outcome of such a conference. Isn't it?

"The conferance's draft declaration endorsed the conclusions of an anti-racism conference in South Africa eight years ago in which Islamic nations pushed through a text equating Zionism with racism " ====> Timesonline

The conference has been boycotted already by Israel and United States and seven other countries whos political views on Zionism are already known 

So what is new for you?

What a bunch of . . .

What a bunch of idiots. WHY news agencies are NOT publishing the whole speech?

Israel is the number one racist country in the world. No one can hide Israeli atrocities by attacking others.

No dear Jahanshah

by masoudA on

the walk-out is not because the fool called Isreal a racist nation - the walk-out was because of the hypocracy of someone like AN who is not even on first base of human rights to address it.

Where is the support from those other Arab governments? Sure, royalty or otherwise, be it the Saudis, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon. But where is it?

Sure, there are people in those countries who sympathize. I'm not talking about the criminal factions that are feeders for Hamas or Hezbollah. And of course I'm not talking about Hamas or Hezbollah themselves, either. Their agenda honestly has nothing to do with support of the Palestinian people. They are all about chaos and anarchy only.

Supposedly this was an "Arab" cause...but where is the Arab support? I'm not saying for even a second that Palestinians are not entitled to their independence, freedom and autonomy. Without a doubt, they are. But no other Arab countries are coming to their aid. Doesn't that strike you as odd? The other Arab countries of course have their issues with Israel, but they're not bothering each other.

As far as Meimoun....his calling anyone a racist is akin to the Grand Wizard of the KKK suing for racial discrimination. This bozo is a failure on every level. As a leader, a politician, an engineer, as an Iranian, and most of all, as a human being.

No one is saying Ahamdinejad is not spot on. But his regime is just as racist and brutal. People are condeming his hypocrisy. People in glass houses don't throw stones.

To all those who forget-I am an Israeli

by Ben of Ashdod (not verified) on

What Israel has done and see it as no big deal, shame on you.
You don't need to agree with Ahmadinejad to disagree with Israel. Shame on all of you.

Those who are against Ahmadinejad are not anti Iran or Islam, and those who are against Israeli racist regime are not anti Jewish.

Shame on you to change the real issue here.
Shame on you for not seeing what is being done to the hopeless women and children.
if you thought Iran is bad (Which you have to concept as what bad is) take a trip to Israel and if you are allowed to take a camera, go to the Palestinian camps. If you don't cry and don't see what's happening then you are not a human.

I am an Iranian Jew. I am proud of my nationality and I don't like Ahmadinejad or the Islamic Republic. I am amazed at those who change the topic from the real issues here. I lived in Israel. DO you have any question or want my background, I will email them to you. But don't sit here and bowlshit about Israel being good, or Iranians should not care about Palestinians. Iranians have every right to think of Palestinians. I have visited them I know. They have nothing to hang on to. We need to increase our support.
I am not a Jew, I am human first. I have so much to say. If you just see the kids in the camp, if you just knew how they live. Their crime? Being a Palestinian. The interesting thing was that most of them treated me with most respect and hospitality, knowing that I was a Jew, the group that had brought such miseries to them. Oh, you would burn if you just lived with them for a few days. Otherwise you are not a human. In this regard, I do understand what Ahmadinejad says, even though he is not the guy who should talk.
The sad thing is that there is nothing anyone can do. The Israeli system and politics towards the Palestinian is setup very strange. Many Israelis have to come to accept that Palestinians deserve what they got!
I will register here and will let everyone know about the true Israel.
Let's see who wants to defend Israel.

Kaveh, Mahmoud is the WRONG person for many reasons but,

by Ostaad on

his calling the Zionists a bunch of racists is spot on. Now can you be kind enough and name those "other Arab countries" who have "ceased" to defend the Palestinians? Are you talking about the people in those countries or a couple of tribal chiefs pretending to be the "royal families"?

by Hajminator on

It's amazing. Yesterday, I was exactly thinking of what you said ... I sometimes wonder if Ahmadinejad isn't a counterintelligence agent for Israel; no one else could inspire such a reaction by merely exaggerating the obvious.

What makes things even more strange is when a guy inside the regime was questioning about the modification of Mahmoud's Jews name in Ahmadinejad, his statement disappeared just by enchantment.

Nobody without a willing of destroying couldn't have done better than what Mahmoud did these 4 past year.

Ahmadinejad's guest of honor

Ahmadinejad's guest of honor was David Duke of the KKK in his 'Holocaust-Denial Conference

This nutjob is a buffoon and only those who are sympathetic with militant Islamic groups would ever entertain this bigotry fest?

What I want to know is, why the hell does nobody else at the same event stand up and launch into a tirade against the savage, brutal, oppressive regime in Iran? Why is it that the MSM does not talk about Evin but they talk about Gitmo? How hard is it to show IRI's hypocrisy when it comes to racism, bigotry, cruelty, stoning, maiming, face and tongue cutting, eye-gouging, raping virgin detainess, Kangroo trials??

What the hell is wrong with the spineless members of the UN that they don't even have the guts to wage a war of words?

Why does anyone give this utter hypocitical moron a platform?

His understanding of history and current affairs is utterly abysmal

No surpirse the West walks out

by theAmerican (not verified) on

The European countries and the Jewish Lobby in America both want to see the Jews in Palestine.

The Europeans want Jews out of Europe, PERMANENTLY and Palestine sounds like a far enough place.

The Zionists and the pro Jewish Lobby want the Jews in occupied Palestine to have a foot hold there and satisfy their master/slave and crazy religious needs.

So, every body expected a walk out by that gang. What's new?

In my opinion both the Isreal gonernment and Ahmadinejad should be eliminated. I have nothing against the Jews or Islam.

History will Judge

by ghalam-doon on

So what was so troubling about what Ahmadinejad said? Did all the people who criticize him and call him names actually listened to what he said? 

Didn't he tell the truth about Israel, its backers and the dominant financial system in the world which can be construed as racist?

What was it that was so offensive?

What was it that caused those nice White gentlemen in nice suits to walkout on him? Is it the way he looks or the fact that he does not suck up to them?

History will judge.

There is no doubt that Israel is an apartheid state. In fact some of the left wing of Israel parliament brought the subject up. The problem is holocaust, will you dare to call the chosen people (even that is racist) a racist nation. After all they have suffered a lot. no matter the Palestinians and genocide.

Davood_Banayan you are not a good lier. You contradicted yourself which no fool will do.

Americans are educated and know that Persian Gulf is Persian Gulf. The UN with its 22 Arab members call the Gulf, with its correct name of Persian Gulf.

Davood_Banayan is a ficitious name to create trouble here. Watch for this person.

Kaveh Nouraee, Ahmadinejad is the Pres. of Iran!!!

by Davood_Banayan on

Americans for a Democratic Republic in Iran.

As an American born USA citizen I believe that Ahmadinejad can say what ever he wants to.  Under the U.S. Constitution, people have freedom of speech and expression.  Iran has never had these freedoms in 3000 years of history.  I saw the movie "300" and "Not without my daughter".  The Pahlavi dynasty a barbaric dictatorship.  President Bush said it best, the Iranians, by a majority elected Ahmadinejad.  As an American, I have no problem with that.  I do have a problem with the fact that The Tomb Islands, Abu Musa and the Arabian Gulf are being hijacked and being held captive by the Iranian governement.  America agrees on this matter with the Arab world the Gulf shall always be the Arabian Gulf.  If you don't like this, Kaveh, go back to where you came from and leave America.

 

Kaveh, see this video and suffer you terrosrist sympathizer:

Good Job President.

by Mike Metoyer (not verified) on

I think some one needed to speak out against the tyrant sate of Israel. President Ahmadinajad did a good job and only the racists walked out, who have been famous for their "divide and rule" strategy. Furthermore those two jokers were french jews who were complete idiots. I loved the speech and all my fellow Persians liked it as well. Again Well Said Ahmadinajad, Palstenians are masacared on daily basis under the support of West by Holocaust's students. Let West take Jewish back home. They brought them to Palestine to get rid of them and to have control on Middle East. Wehenever they come under International pressure for their crimes they cry on Holocoust to act as victims and to hide their dark side. New game is Anti Semetic. Zionists lobby do everything to stop people from coming to the conference!!! And to others who have nothing good to say about IRI, you don't know nothing about Iran, I know Iran has some internal problems but anything Iran has to say to the outside work is totally true and logical.

Hajminator

I'm coming to the conclusion

by Hajminator on

that Fred-like people here, who in one hand suggest Iranians not to vote against this Boozineh-racist and in another begin to present him as the president of Iranians and are out of their hinges when they see the same Boozineh in TV, have a real agenda against the nation of Iran.


If you are against voting, which will undeniably result in the re-election of Antari-nejad, just shut it up when you see him chattering in CNN.


Q

Isn't it interesting how we value "Europeans" over the rest?

by Q on

100-some countries stayed, and some even clapped including South Africa.

According to the BBC, the French diplomat started walking before Ahmadinejad made any statement about Israel.

"""" French Ambassador Jean-Baptiste Mattei said: "As soon as he started to address the question of the Jewish people and Israel, we had no reason to stay in the room," the Associated Press news agency reported. """"

//news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8008572.stm

Translation: You do not have the right to say anything about Israel, nevermind if it's accurate or not. The Euro-Israelis have a right to criticize third world governments left and right, but not the reverse.

However, as much as like to see the Europeans act like the loser cry babies that they are, I have to agree that MA knew this would not be constructive even to his own agenda of exposing Zionist racism. Therefore he was simply grandstanding for his own politics, and that should not the spirit of these meetings.

This incident should be used to vote out MA out of office.
