For many years I have wondered why international aid agencies are not working with the poor and destitute in the USA and having international disasyer relief fund raising appeals by organizations such as the red cross. I have wondered why international Christian organizations are not riding around the USA on bicycles like mormons do everywhere else, but to preach peace, human rights, and alternatives to corrupted governments that sacreligously use prayer before voting on illegal wars to steal resources from other countries.

@@NugicusStreetPhotography Well in that region of the world Israel should not be looked at as a religious group for sympathy. Israel was the aggressor in taking part of Palestine to create its own state. Israel was like the old colonial imperialist European powers. Israel had the power and went in Palestine and took it. That's what the Iranian president is saying. But the state of Israel concept was a response to what happened to jews in Germany( Holocaust) and many years of Jews being discriminated against in Europe. But the state of Israel is the aggressor in this situation in Palestine. One should not lump all Jews across the world for what the State of Israel has done to the Palestinian people. But Jews did need to protect themselves.

[@NugicusStreetPhotography]

@@phillyguy2157 Everything you've just said is factually. Let's ignore the fact that there has never been an independant sole Arab nation called Palestine before and it was the Arab leaders who attacked Jews first in the beginning of the Aran Israeli war in 1948. Israel isnothing like the colonialist Imperial powers of Europe. For instance Jews immigrated to the Levant to escape oppression and many were refugees. The did not go there to exploit or conquor the natives for the purpose of acquire raw materials because they believed they were racial superior.

[@phillyguy2157]

@@NugicusStreetPhotography The European imperialist take land because land is the basis of independence!! That's what the State of Israel did! Just like in the USA whites took land without respect to native American people wether they directly occupied it or not. The state of Israel's leaders were seen as foriengers coming into Palestine in numbers settling in. That land belonged to them. But you see it differently because you have favor to the state of Israel and think like an imperialist. This has nothing to do with white supremacists like in Germany and the Nazis. This has nothing to do with resources of the land . It's the land itself that was taken by foriengers ( state of Israel) that the Palestinian people resist against. The State of Israel saw that the Palestinian people could not defend their land so those Jewish leaders had no respect for them.

As a native farsi speaker, I should say that the translator does not translate everything that the President is saying. He just ignores some important parts of his speech which cause misunderstanding.

[@carlo_cali]

Really ? I never even thought about that possibility, but I believe there is a narrative the U.S. would want. I never saw this interview until now an surprisingly it appears quite a bit of Americans liked his answers. I saw the interview with Ayatollah Khomeini and it was not like this. They had to submit their questions before hand and some were said to be unacceptable. They even said if there were any crazy or silly questions that the translator would not even translate them. Here it's clear that Ahmadinejad is very clever and a controlled man. The reporter tried to get a rise out of him, but he couldn't.

[@boxingmbrothers3201]

The interpreter did a good job by conveying the meaning and manner. doing simultaneous interpretation is way harder than what you think as a native farsi speaker. The fact that he was dancing around the question can not be a good excuse to blame the interpreter.

[@harrydavey9884]

I have nothing against Islam specifically, but this is completely false and ironically he is lying. Taqiyya allows for lying in Islam, especially to non-muslims. If they believe that the sin of the lie is justifiable, as it is for the benefit of Islam, then they may lie however they like. Taqiyya essentially enables lying to any non-Muslim at any time. Muhammad lied to the Meccans, he signed a 10 year peace treaty, then broke the treaty and murdered the other party only 2 years later. So... The prophet of your religion has lied MANY MANY times. Please explain how Muslims may not tell lies.

At 11:56, Scott Pelley was rightly called out on what he was doing with the interview. You see, this was during the Bush era & this's a 60 Minutes interview with Iran's then president, it tells the gist of what one needs to know about the main stream outlets & their covert links to the intelligence agencies & the military industrial complex. The US is the invading party here, & Pelley's acting as if we are the ones being invaded (Iraq) or the ones being surrounded (Iran) by the invading forces. He's interviewing Ahmadinejad with the outright hawkishness of the neocons. Also, when these main stream outlets do political pieces on the approved internal affaires here, they do it from a neolib point of view. What a bunch of shameless tools they are, & they are proud of it too. Propaganda is what we get for news.

The difference between Iran and the US is that Iranians actually know what their ideology is about. Even though the majority of Iranians aren't fond of the regime, they know that Iran is the only country in the region that managed to maintain stability and peace and in some way, they succesfully won their land back from the Americans (from the view that the Shah's Persia was an American puppet state). Point is, the Iranian mindset is very dangerous for the West, because we can safely assume that when the regime is gone, Iran will still maintain its independent position.

Ahmedinejad is a master troller

[@ghasemahmadi3616]

This is an old recording. Ahmadi Nejad was the president of Iran then. It is now Dec. 2020 not 2010.

The insanity of saying "you have American blood on your hands" as if America doesn't have so much more Iraqi blood on its hands
