EHRAN - President Mahmud Ahmadinejad has advised U.S. officials to avoid making more mistakes in the Middle East which tarnish the image of Americans.
The bullying and hegemonic powers are seeking to prevent the establishment of peace based on justice and spirituality, Ahmadinejad told the members of a religious delegation from the United States at a meeting here on Sunday.
Today, we need to struggle for the realization of justice, but only pious and self-disciplined people can walk on this path, he added. The multi-denominational Christian delegation came to Iran to meet religious and political figures and the Iranian people in order to build bridges of peace and security between Iran and the U.S.
The delegation was led by the Mennonites and Quakers but included members of many Christian denominations of the United States.
Ahmadinejad called all divine religions, especially Islam, religions of peace, friendship, and brotherhood.
The prophets of God struggled and endured hardships to establish theism, justice, and peace. Today we should also continue on their path and make efforts to promote peace and compassion, the president added.
As Jesus Christ (PBUH) never abandoned his mission despite incredible hardships, his followers should not remain mum over the massacre and displacement of millions of innocent people by selfish and hegemonic powers, he stated. He went on to say that the Iranian nation bears no animosity toward the American people, adding, We believe that all people should be respected and that they can make efforts to promote world peace and justice based on their affinities and respect for human dignity.
After the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran gave U.S. officials the chance to make up for their mistakes in regard to the Iranian nation, but they continued their mistakes by hatching various plots against Iran, assassinating political figures, supporting Saddam Hussein, and imposing sanctions, he said.
He warned U.S. officials to avoid making more mistakes in the Middle East because they are tarnishing the image of the American people in the region, especially through the Iraq issue.
Thanks, Mahmud. I'm sure American foreign policy will be dictated by your thoughtful musings.
"which tarnish the image of"
Just a guess here but most of them would leave there in a second to live here due to the hell hole he and his government created.
Exactly whose image is tarnished.
He is learning from the democrat's to accuse everyone else of what they are doing.
Straight from the DNC for his talking points.
"He warned U.S. officials to avoid making more mistakes in the Middle East because they are tarnishing the image of the American people in the region, especially through the Iraq issue."
I agree. Bomb Irans nuclear capabilitys NOW. Don't wait until the UN says it is ok. As for Iraq, put a bullet in Mookie's head NOW.
Since Mookie is reportedly in Iran, hiding from the "surge", we could score a TwoFer!
Thanks Akmed-a-nut-job, next time we need more BS, we'll unscrew your head, and dip it out with a honeypot.
May Satan have fun with your soul.
hegemonic powers
Islamic dreams of world domination aren't hegemonic??
Could have fooled me!
Hey, good advice, there, bud...
Actually, he is correct! We waited too long to take care of Hitler. We must not make that mistake with AckMudIamOnAJihad.
I think we should give Tehran a demonstration of how terrifying terrorism can be. We should go to the heart of the matter and systematically assassinate every single fellow cult member in a position of power that Ahmadinutjob has.
Drop a 55 gallon drum full of plastique down the well where the 12th Imam is supposed to do his whack-a-mole routine.
We have snipers of amazing ability, with kill books the size of a phone directory. They could be ventilating turbans at a frightening rate.
Morality police, Revolutionary Guards, missile and nuclear scientists, Mullahs and Imams should be cacking up hairballs right, left and sideways.
IEDs could start killing their military personnel, and surprisingly, using Iranian IED parts.
Somewhere I read that before the Gulf War I ground invasion began, there were between 20,000 and 30,000 special operations forces already in Iraq. Imagine how much havoc such concentrated wickedness could perform in Iran?
Indeed, we ought not repeat our mistake. We should have blown Saddam and his cabinet to hell and stayed out of the way of the murderous sectarian slaughter to follow. So, with Iran we ought to bomb the hell out of the Amafooluhjihad parliament while he is addressing them, take out all the Ayatollah wannabes and let nature take its course in Iran. And we ought not delay to seek vote after useless vote at the UN, 'jus git er dun'.
Mistakes like not reducing a country to steaming rubble before going boots-on-the-ground.
