To whom does the Islamic Republic of Iran belong?
“Ahmadinejad Writes Open Letter to Trump,” VOA News, February 26, 2017:
Iran’s former hardline president Mahmud Ahmadinejad has published an open letter in both English and Farsi to U.S. President Donald Trump, lauding the American leader for what he said was “truthfully describing the U.S. political system and electoral structure as corrupt.”
The lengthy letter published Sunday also criticized Trump for his planned visa ban on seven countries, including Iran, saying “the contemporary U.S. belongs to all nations.” He acknowledged, however, the immigration of some 1 million people of Iranian descent to the U.S.
Ahmadinejad decried what he called Washington’s “dominance” over the United Nations and U.S. meddling in the world, which the former Iranian president said has brought “insecurity, war, division killing and [the] displacement of nations.”…

Why do we continue to care what this Member’s Only-wearing Midget Mouthpiece of the Mullahs has to say?
maghan says
The guy was a serious clown way back when. This near-illiterate was always a private laughing stock for those who paid attention to his ridiculously dumb comments.
The stupid fool has no sense of logic when he claims that the U.S. belongs to all nations. If so, then to whom does Iran belong? Same for ALL the nations of the world. And why do so many Iranians prefer to be in the U.S. than in Iran? If the Islamic Republic is so enlightening why do so many want to leave?

Good points. ““the contemporary U.S. belongs to all nations.”” Can someone please translate that into meaningful English for me? I have no idea what this freak is trying to say …
Carolyne says
Yes, happy to translate. Loosely it means the philosophy to which Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Charles Schumer and dozens of others in our government subscribe. It is the philosophy to which that idiot Mexican who is often on FOX subscribes. Oddly, though, this “everybody owns the country” only pertains to the United States. One can see what happens to illegal immigrants on the southern Mexican border and understand that this ownership of the US only pertains to the US and no other country.

Only in a mad world a person like Ahmedinijad becomes a president, even if the state was the islamic republic. Equally true, only in a mad world a person like Obama becomes a president to a country he dislikes, only seven years after 9/11.
The world is mad wherever you look: Syria, Iraq, the Gulf states, ISIS, Afghanistan, but more so in the West, where the thought police succeeded in manipulating human intelligence and reversing the basics of common sense: bad is now believed to be good, up is down, hot is cold and right is wrong, and if you object to any of it you are mad!!
The question is: Can Trump repair all this damage? or would he be allowed to repair any?
Catherine says
Ahmadinejad belongs to the dustbin.
Unfortunately, the election of Obama was allowed in order to promote the reduction of the US.
Pray that the Trump administration will be able to drain the swamp sufficiently to “trump” this effort.
underbed cat says
No, the OIC, has dominance over the U.N. with the 56 muslim countries….and their desire to silence free speech about the doctrine of Islam and sharia law. Sharia law denies the muslim from speaking about his/her own religion in any factual way( slander laws) that would expose why the Iranian treaty was a disaster for any western country with secular laws.
Add to that the problem that people have used the constitutional right to practice a religion and you get the idea that a comment about “democracy is the train we (muslims) ride in on” is mass migration, and you see why they want to discredit our country…all the while stoking protests, riots and demanding hate speech laws to bring disruption to our country and bring in sharia law as the law of the land…..utterly insanity to do so.
We need an administration that has experts who have studied sharia, to protect the U.S..against the implementation of these barbaric laws. We need free speech that does not silence truth nor criminalize free speech with penalties.
Carolyne says
We need an administration which will withdraw the US from the UN and eject it from the country. No more money to those who hate the US and the freedoms for which it stands.

Spot-on Carolyne!

salim says: “….. and right is wrong, and if you object to any of it you are mad!!”
No, no. That’s politically incorrect! Allow me to correct you: ‘…object to any of it you are a Nazi!’
There, no it;s right. Also acceptable are: Islamophobe, bigot, hater, Neo-Nazi, rightwinger, hardliner, Facsist and Racist. Ar your option.
DFD says
PS; Sorry, different browser and also typo
That was for salim’s post, a few comments above.
The typo should have read: “There, **now** it’s right.”
Angemon says
Hilarious, coming from a former leader of a nation that is part of the largest voting bloc in the UN (the OIC, which is composed of 56 muslim-majority states plus the “Palestinian”Authority [the PA being the only non-UN member] and has honorary members such as India or Russia, on the grounds of their large muslim populations) and the number 1 terrorist sponsoring state in the world, whose tentacles reach far and wide.

He is unable to see what is right because he squints his eyes and his nose gets in the way.
Evil, evil, little creature. God will deal with him in HIS own time.
Carolyne says
Excuse me, but if God will deal with evildoers in his own time, why is he waiting to see thousands more die? Is it a game he plays?
abad says
Dear Ahmadinejad:
We do not need your approval to justify our (The United States of America) existence.
utis says
And at no time has Islamic dominance brought “insecurity, war, division…,” etc. on planet Earth. By the way, what would he do if his daughter (assuming he hasn’t killed them all) wanted to marry a Sunni or a Catholic?
Buford says
He is less intelligent than I gave him credit for What makes you think Iran or any of those Barbaric Cretin Countries have the right to demand the US or any Western Country take your Misfits? The Western World is not obligated to please your every whim how many of these invaders have you taken in & do you deny there soul purpose is not to assimilate but rather to invade & dominate with re-population & Islamic Ideology? You can go straight to hell Almadijad.

This country belongs to its citizens. It is ours to give or keep as we see fit. If we see the country s in danger then we will keep it to ourselves
Veka Fitzfrancis says
Well said.
*applauds*
brane pilot says
He is right.
How else can you possibly describe a country that apprehends people illegally crossing its Southern border, buses them north to a city, then gives them a piece of paper and lets them go? Or simply ignores the fact that they overstay their visas? Or issues visas to women that are 9 months pregnant so they can come here, birth a US citizen, then tear up the medical bill when they return to their home country?
How else can you possibly describe a country that says everyone is entitled to a driver’s license, and all you need to vote is a driver’s license?
How else can you possibly describe a country that will issue a state-funded lawyer to every person who illegally crosses its border and says they want one, with which to sue the state that provides the lawyer.
So yeah. He calls it like he sees it.
And he is right.
Carolyne says
Sadly, you are right too, “brane pilot.”

“The contemporary U.S. belongs to all nations”
Really??? Most of the Muslims that I ever had dealings with always claimed that the US belonged to the Muslims. THEY discovered America and that the land was stolen from them by European “invaders”.
Perhaps, the mullahs will declare a fatwa on this moron for saying that the US belongs to ” all nations”
dumbledoresarmy says
By ‘all nations’ he means “all Muslim nations”. By ‘the world’ he means “the Ummah”.
Muslims believe that the entire *world* belongs to them and them alone, because they are Muslims.
Everybody else is illegally occupying territory and property that by rights belongs to Muslims, and that Muslims intend to ‘liberate’ (or, from the filthy kuffar POV, steal by means of fraud or armed robbery).
mortimer says
I’m-a-Nut-Job is back! He sez he wants a US green card AN HE WANTS IT NOW ! He has a RIGHT to have a green card.
In fact, probably HALF of Iran (if not 2/3 of all Persians) would gladly emigrate to the US if the door magically opened.
The mullahocracy is a GREED-o-CRACY, a SLEEZ-o-CRACY and a KLEPTOCRACY. The mullahs are making themselves mega-rich while them Persian people suffer.
Voytek Gagalka says
Does the “contemporary” Mecca belong to all humanity or only to Mohammedan scum? We know the answer. Just rhetorical question.
J-pal says
Does contemporary Iran belong to all nations as well?
Westman says
The US belongs to the free citizens who will defend it’s freedom with their lives and fortunes – the same price that was offered by the founders.
Seditionist Islam, Iran’s terror-promoting clerics, and our own unpatriotic uber-liberals do not qualify. Sorry “Charlie” Ahmadinejad, we want people with the good taste to teach patriotic principles and let the people govern themselves.
A government that insists that another country should control sand storms is not intelligent enough to be “contemporary”.
Daniel F X Dravot says
So, Mahmud Monkeydinnerjacket, the Willie Horton of Iranian politics, is having a bit of fun while attempting to regain the international limelight. Having fun, however is un-Islamic according to no less than the Ayatollah Khomeini:
“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.”
To seriously quote a wiser philosopher, Bugs said, ” What a maroon – what a ignoranimus…”
maghan says
Sure, that 4 year old Ayatollah Khomeni banged had “no fun and joy” during that hellish night. She screamed and shrieked all night.
JOEL A TOMPKINS says
This where you would be wrong you short little asshole this country belong to the American citizen and no one else . we will deport every person from your country . you have no claim on this country at all .
maghan says
You know, it’s always arresting to see a quasi-dwarf with a normal sized human head. Especially when its mouth pronouncements are so breathtakingly cretinous.
Eric Jones says
The USA does not belong to the world no more than I belong in Iran. Since 1965 this country has allowed one million immigrants in every year. What this country needs is a ten year moratorium on immigration. Particularly in light of the islamist threat.
