Iranian Cleric Campaigns for Democrats




Cleric:

US Republicans in Crisis

TEHRAN (Fars News Agency)-

Tehran's interim Friday Prayers Leader Seyed Ahmad Khatami stressed that the savage and devilish performance of the US President George W Bush has placed Republicans in a very critical condition.

Addressing a large fervent congregation of the worshippers on Tehran University Campus today, Khatami noted the upcoming US Congress elections and the decisive role that the election results will play on the next presidential elections in that country, and said:

"The savage and devilish acts and performances of Bush, as a Republican, have placed his party in a very critical condition."

He pointed to the heavy casualties sustained by the US army in Iraq as a further factor deteriorating the Republicans' stand on the political scene of the United States, and continued:

"To shrink the crisis, the US administration will certainly try to project its problems on others in the coming days, but they must know that allegations about the intervention of Iran and Syria in Iraq's domestic affairs may not solve their problems."

The cleric stressed that the only move helping the US administration to escape its present crisis is unconditional withdrawal from Iraq.

Elsewhere, he noted the United States' conspiracy for encountering the people in such Islamic states as Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine, and added:

"They seek to confuse the world of Islam so that the main enemy, i.e. the Zionist regime, is no longer the focus of concern. And we can unfortunately observe that in some states they have gained some success in this regard as some Lebanese statesmen are apparently unaware of the depth of the US plot."

Elaborating on what he termed to be the United States' Hypocrisy, Khatami mentioned:

"On one hand they pretend to support the Iraqi government and on the other hand they seek to undermine the position and performance of that government. They chant many slogans about their fight against terrorism, but they, meantime, meet terrorists and order them to kill as many Iranians and Shiites as they can in Iraq."

He also referred to the US plot in Afghanistan, and stressed that Washington is seeking to make a deal with the extremist groups in that country, warning that the US is prepared to victimize everyone in case its interests so require.

This week's interim Friday Prayers Leader of Tehran also stated that the US Secretary of State has come to visit the region in a bid to fill all the regional states with the feeling of intimidation about Iran.

He reminded that the Islamic Republic of Iran has never aggressed against any other country in the last 27 years despite its military power, and addressing the neighboring states, said:

"You must know that Iran is like your powerful brother who will certainly help you whenever you are in crisis."

He also warned Iran's neighboring states that the US is just seeking to loot their wealth and oil.

In another part, of his second sermon, Khatami pointed to Iran's nuclear issue and reminded that Tehran is not seeking anything beyond its rights, and further dismissed the UN Security Council resolutions on Iran, saying that the freedom-seeking nations of the world will not at all heed such resolutions.

He also reminded that the western countries have stopped negotiations and referred Iran's case to the UNSC while both Iran's top nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani and EU Foreign Policy Chief Javier Solana have described their four rounds of talks as constructive.

"Western countries should know that Iran favors negotiations," the cleric pointed out, adding that imposition of sanctions on Iran has never yielded any benefits for the western states in the last 27 years.

He advised the West to give up their present approach and policy of threat, warning that they will have to sustain more losses than Iran in case they embark on imposing sanctions on Tehran.



Wild Thing's comment......
OH really, hard to tell if this is a Democrat speaking or this Iranian cleric! Not much difference, maybe Harry Reid wrote his script for him. Or Michael Moore, gosh there are so many we could pick from that are Democrats that easily could have been this cleric's writter. hahaha

Go ahead Seyed Ahmad Khatami and sound off all you want, we are used to this kind of bull. But we must let you know we have heard a lot better and some with much more passion in their delivery. You might want to throw in a little of the Howard Dean tactics of yelling and a few praise Allah's to top it off. And oh yes, don't forget using the word fight, fight, fight, that is a favorite of the Dems. They always add in how they will fight for us. hahaha

One thing for sure this raghead takes his talking points straight from the Islamic medias, Al-CNN and Al-New York Times, there is no other way they can espouse this philosophy without the help of our left wing party and their above named facilitators. You have correctly identified a few of them. Look at France and you'll see the future America under Democrat control.
