Middle East POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
The rules of POLITICAL CORRECTNESS when it comes to the Israeli-Arab
conflict:
Rule # 1: In the Middle East, it is always the Arabs
that attack first, and it's always Israel who defends
itself.
This is called "Retaliation"
Rule # 2: The Arabs, whether Palestinians or Lebanese, are not
allowed to kill Israelis. This is called "Terrorism"
Rule # 3: Israel has the right to kill Arab civilians, this is
called "Self-Defense", or these days "Collateral Damage".
Rule # 4: When Israel kills too many civilians. The Western world
calls for restraint. This is called the "Reaction of the
International
Community".
Rule # 5: Palestinians and Lebanese do not have the right to
capture Israeli military, not even a limited number, not even 1 or 2.
This is called "Kidnapping".
Rule # 6: Israel has the right to capture as many Palestinians as
they want (Palestinians: around 10000 to date, 300 of which are
children,
Lebanese: 1000s to date, being held without trial). There is no
limit; there is no need for proof of guilt or trial. This is called
"War on Terrorism".
Rule # 7: When you say "Hezbollah", always be sure to add
"supported by Syria and Iran". this is called: "Axis of Evil"
Rule # 8: When you say "Israel", never say "supported by the USA,
the UK and other European countries", for people (God forbid) might
believe this is not an equal conflict. This is called "Helping our
Friends".
Rule # 9: When it comes to Israel, don't mention the words "occupied
territories", "UN resolutions", "Geneva conventions". This could
distress the audience and is called "Anti-Semitism".
Rule # 10: Israelis speak better English than Arabs. This is why we
let them speak out as much as possible, so that they can explain
rules.
1 through 9. This is called "Neutral Journalism".
Rule # 11: If you don't agree with these rules or if you favor the
Arab side over the Israeli side, you must be a very dangerous
>anti-Semite.

Please learn the proper terminology and use it appropriately to
maintain your job; this is called "Equal Opportunity Employment"
Yes! I think the world is far from being neutral these days (and during all days in its history).

By the way, at the end western governments should understand that we are all Hezbullah!
(at August 11, 2006 12:19 AM)
e!? really? But you have to understand that when it comes to the real life you have to take only one side: the Hezbullah side or the side of the fucking west, or else you will be perished in between. If you want to get perished, I don't care. and if you want to take the western side you should understand there are always Hesbullahi elements who would treat you as a shit, so I don't care again. But if you want to take the side of west you will realise that there always exist people like me who would be willing to hinder any kind of westernization, even if they cost bringing the country back to 100 years ago.

Aatash your comments are very selfish. I'm glad there are more people who want to move Iran forward than 100 years backwards, and I'm sure backward-minded people like you are a small minority in Iran. If you want to satisfy your small mind please do it on your own behalf and not on behalf of others.

Atash, I'm afrain I have to agree with Parthisan. Just read your language, its disgusting!
(at August 15, 2006 09:53 PM)
Yeah, my language is disgusting, but why should it be otherwise? You actually have to be bloody-minded to get on with new things. Remember that bastards are the ones who shape the world.
Become a bastard, like Bush, Hitler, or Nasrollah. I admire Nasrollah alot and he is actually my Che. So don't give a shit to whoever else that might feel disgusted.

I can't agree with you. Your analysis is just simplistic. The truth is that the world is full of terrorists - and this is nothing new. There are always those who prefer to seek violent solutions. Almost always, those who employ violence do not achieve anything resembling the outcome promised as making the violence 'worthwhile' in the first place. This is true for Iranian terrorism as it is for American, British, israeli and Tamil terrorism. The nature of terror is that it leads to more terror. You do not have to be a Zionist to recognise that people who live in israel have the right not to be destroyed. Similarly, the Palestinians have serious grievances. Are you arguing that violence in the cause of one is morally superior to violence in the cause of the other? What about treating others as humans and not trying to scare, hurt or kill them?

"I can't agree with you"
With who? I mean Saman or Atash or Parthian?... Furniture maybe?
"Your analysis is just simplistic"
Fair enough. What is yours by the way (if you don't mind me asking!)
"The truth (blimey! that's a big thing to say! THE TRUTH I mean! sorry, were saying:) is that the world is full of terrorists"
BINGO! Now that's what I call ANALYSIS! and whatever you might say it is, it is NOT SIMPLISTIC!
"-and this is nothing new."
That's NEWS to me, I tell you that!
"...This is true( not that again!) for Iranian terrorism as it is for American [terrorism?], British [terrorism?], Israeli [terrorism?} and Tamil terrorism( there it is, Finally!)."
well... Sir, I don't know if you are aware! this all started When somebody just out of the blue decided to be the voice of everybody else! Now I don't know if you are American or British or Israeli or Tamil, but with all respect: Please, Sir, I am begging you, speak for yourself.
"... You do not have to be a Zionist to recognise that people who live in Israel have the right not to be destroyed..."
Sir, that's the very same RIGHT that has not been getting the recognition you think It deserves (whenever it comes to israelis, I should say!!) for years and years during which Lives of thousands of Palestinians have been destroyed, strange I know!
"What about treating others as humans and not trying to scare, hurt or kill them?"
Forgive me, Do these OTHERS of yours include people of Latin America? or African countries or people of central Asia for instance, or let's say countries in Middle East? (You don't have to answer that...)
