Ahmadinejad condemns Qaddafi, predicts revolution in US and Europe
2011-02-23
from Haaretz

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says popular demands for change will put an end to the oppression of what he called arrogant powers...he says similar uprisings will strike Europe and North America....the president also condemned Libya's use of force against demonstrators and urged Libyan leaders to give in to the demands of their people...Iran warned opposition groups on Saturday against staging demonstrations to commemorate the people killed during the protests, state media reported.
Iran brutally put down protests on its own streets after Ahmadinejad's disputed re-election in 2009.

#10  First thingys come first.

As per COLD WAR "ATTACKING WHERE THE US-NATO = ENEMY IS NOT".

* AL-ARABIYA > CHINESE CALL FOR MORE TUNISIAN-STYLE "JASMINE RALLIES".

Since its CHINA + ASIA, methinks "JASMINE" label should more properly be termed "LOTUS" [White Lotus] or "CHRYSANTHEMUM"???

#9  Didn'Qadaffy cheer the "revolution"? Well until they revolted against him. I wonder if there is even a word for irony in Arabic.

#8  He's telling his populace and the rest of the middle east the lies he needs them to believe in order that they will be able to massacre American children in good conscience. Since we're actually the supporters of terrorists like Qadaffy and all that.

#7  here's hoping the iranian populace takes him at his word. his words seem to give them permission to overthrow their own short, round tyrant. unless, of course, this speech was not broadcast in iran.
raving lunatics finally being sent to the asylum?

#5  the Tea party revolution has already begun. 2010 was the first victory with over 700 state legislator seats being won. We can see the result in Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio, but there is a lot we do not see in other states that now have a conservative majority.

#4  Hell, if Columbia University, NY City and the area around the UN and a hotel is all I saw of America, I'd have some pretty bizarre ideas about this country too.

#3  Ahmadinejad really does "not get" the U.S. Maybe he spent too much time at the U.N. and Columbia University the last time he was here.
