Ahmadinejad made a U.N speech criticizing the United States, yet again. However, this time he hit a very delicate issue. Ahmadinejad dared to blame the Untied States government for the attacks on 9/11. Now, many of us have heard of these crazy conspiracy theories about the government orchestrating the attacks. In the speech, he said most of the world including American believed this theory. He said they did it to reverse the declining economy and to save the Zionist regime of Israel. During the speech, United States and some European officials walked out. As they should, no one should have kept listening to his nonsense. Finally, he said the attacks were also used as an excuse to go into Afghanistan and Iraq.
Oh man, this guy is just stupid. There are no other words to explain his speech. I guess by printing his story people are giving him what he wanted: attention. I really don't think the world believes the U.S government orchestrated the attacks. I mean the world already thinks he's a quack and then he goes around making these speeches...please! Osama Bin Laden orchestrated the attacks. Period.
The article also made a strong point that there is a lot of polarization going on in the world today. Right now, the world seems to be divided and it is a lot "US vs. THEM" going on. While that may be true, how can governments be expected to collaborate together when some quack is blaming the death of 3,000 people on their own government.
I completely agree with you on this! I can't believe he actually had the nerve to give this speech. I also agree, not just with him, but many leaders and/or countries it has very much become a "us vs them" type of mentality....unfortunately I don't really see that changing (for the better anyways) anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is that this kind of talk is precisely why there is an "US vs THEM" mentality. How can the U.N expect us to collaborate with these kinds of leaders when they have blatant disrespect for our country and our people. To blame 9/11 on the government, Ahmadinejad is pretty much saying, " if they did that to their own people, then there is no telling what they can to do the rest of the world." He creates the fear and anti-american sentiment in his own country and now he tries to spread it to the rest of the world. Ummmmm....the U.N is not a very good place to try and bash a country. I'm really glad the reps stepped out. Frankly, I don't know how they stopped themselves from punching him the face. And the U.N wants us to play nice....please!
ReplyDeleteI think that Ahmedinejat is the president who is making fun with the world. He is coming to the UN and giving a speech about something which doesn't make sense. His speech was very sad but it was very funny as well. What he said was really far away from reality...
