Iran will deliver telling blow to global powers on Feb. 11
Source: PressTV

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says the nation will deliver a harsh blow to the "global arrogance" on this year's anniversary of the Islamic Revolution.

"The Islamic Revolution opened a window to liberty for the human race, which was trapped in the dead ends of materialism," Ahmadinejad said during a cabinet meeting on Sunday.

"If the Islamic Revolution had not occurred, liberalism and Marxism would have crushed all human dignity in their power-seeking and money-grubbing claws. Nothing would have remained of human and spiritual principles," he added.

Ahmadinejad said that in the three decades of its history, the Islamic Revolution had inspired some great developments in the world.

So, White evangelical, Israeli gov, Iranian gov., funny they all want their children to die!
Sad, patholigical.

Sounds just like a lot of right wing radio yappers.

Ahmadinejad and Limbaugh on the same side? Hmmm....

29. Actually...
Offhismeds is a revolutionary, not a conservative.

He believes in a worldwide Islamic revolution, and that when Islam has swept all before it and is triumphant as the sole authority on Earth, an age of justice for all will be the result. Now, of course, justice means things like women are relegated to their divinely sanction place and they do not arrogantly usurp roles in society that God has given to men. Lack of same is viewed by him as "injustice" because it is against the perfect word of God as revealed in the Koran. So crazy as it may seem, Offhismeds really is a revolutionary because he wants to effect a violent, root and branch transformation of the world in accord with an all-embracing world view. He doesn't want to go backward to a traditional time. He wants to go forward to the end time, when the Hidden Imam will emerge to lead the faithful to victory.

33. The oppressor...
Edited on Tue Feb-02-10 02:17 AM by rayofreason
...is the one who stands in the way of the triumph of Islam. The lack of Islam triumphant is oppression by definition. All this will be resolved by the arrival of the hidden 12th Imam, who will usher in the golden age when Islam rules the world.

Here is the closing of Ahmadinejad's speech United Nations in the fall of 2005:

"Dear Friends and Colleagues, From the beginning of time, humanity has longed for the day when justice, peace, equality and compassion envelop the world. All of us can contribute to the establishment of such a world. When that day comes, the ultimate promise of all Divine religions will be fulfilled with the emergence of a perfect human being who is heir to all prophets and pious men. He will lead the world to justice and absolute peace.

O mighty Lord, I pray to you to hasten the emergence of your last repository, the promised one, that perfect and pure human being, the one that will fill this world with justice and peace."


Peace on Earth. Purity of Essence. POE OPE

Dammit Mandrake! The redcoats are coming!

15. Trapped in the dead ends of materialism.
Yes, now executing demonstrators suddenly starts to make sense.

I wish he would be a bit more specific about those "great developments in the world".

salivate over the prospect of emulating him -- even if they don't admit it.

"opened a window to liberty for the human race"

I guess that was what all the people out in the streets where doing. Celebrating by hitting their heads against clubs and pushing their bodies into bullets. I had it all wrong!

"liberalism and Marxism would have crushed all human dignity in their power-seeking and money-grubbing claws"

Well, maybe I'll give him the marxism point, but the liberalism? sounds like he's projecting, and delusional. Needs a good shrink and lots of meds.

"Iranians are expected to pour into the streets on February 11 to celebrate the occasion in public rallies across the country, as they have done annually over the past three decades."

Ignore the guys in each house with a gun that these people are pouring out into the street to try and get away from.

27. While I'm the first to appreciate sarcastic humor
I think there's a bit much of that being posted here. This time I wouldn't doubt that the crazy SOB has something definite planned and we should expect it. I noticed that somebody has already posted that the US is beefing up its forces in the Persian Gulf and it could well be because of something coming up on Feb.11. that we as yet know nothing about. I'm sure we'll all stay tuned though.
