zionism is the worst ism.

finally someone comes out and says something with some balls instead of the usual prescripted made for tv propaganda you usually hear. Iran's foreign minister Hamid Reza Asefi's flat out called bush on some of his tactics. calling americans supporters of "Zionist terrorist groups" and citing torture at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. With memorable quotes like "Those who support terrorism cannot talk about combating terrorism," I imagine this will add cannon fodder to american zeal to fight discrimination. Although the comments are blaitantly anti-semitic, they are not without cause or diction. Iran has continually lived up to (unrealistic!) requests for nuclear inspections. this year allowing european and australian weapons inspectors to visit their nuclear power plants to prove they are shocklingly providing power. I thought that would be the end of the united states quest to attack them, but from bush's state of union address, i might have been wrong.

"Today, Iran remains the world's primary state sponsor of terror -- pursuing nuclear weapons while depriving its people of the freedom they seek and deserve....As you stand for your own liberty, America stands with you," Bush said.
Asefi said the Bush administration's suggestion that the people of Iran do not enjoy human rights and don't support their government will be proven wrong this week when millions of Iranians will take to the streets in marches celebrating the anniversary of Iran's 1979 revolution that overthrew the ruling shah.
