Israel calls on other countries to boycott Ahmadinejad’s UN speech

Posted by Fahad Zuberi on 9/23/09 • Categorized as Mideast, Politics

Israel wants a full boycott of Iran president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s speech at the UN summit on Wednesday.

The Khaleej Times reports, Israel has contacted foreign ministries of countries around the world trying to convince them to have their representatives leave the hall when Ahmadinejad gives his speech.

Germany and Britain have responded pretty quickly to this call from Israel, here are some tweets with their response.

    definitely there is nothing wrong with opening this topic for research and debate since the supporters have only existed to amplify the excessive theories developed under the influence of propaganda.

    The beauty of supporting freedom of speech is that it enables everyone to consider all points of view, no matter how outrageous, and just as important, it enables the deliberate examination of content and motives of those so freely allowed to express themselves.
    Apparently some are not willing to so defend freedom of speech. Too bad. They are the losers for it, by their rude actions showing loyalty only to self interest.

    Democracy is more than "one person, one vote." It is far more than that: It is the right to be heard. It is voting by individuals responsibly informed, and it is the rule of the majority(not the minority) that must be respected.

    Iran has not attacked any country and will not attck any nation,but Israel prpoganda machine made Iranian look like a zioniest who killed millions of Palastinian and displaced over 6,000,000 millions of them.We in Iran voted to a president who wants to defand Iranian rights and did and doing.we do not want a lider who will be send to us by US or UK or any other thired party.We don,t have a nuclear bomb and we don,t need one.our nation is under 3 round sanction by united terror with US on the driver set.Israel has 350 nuclear warhead with licence to use from USA.Sham on you US with this double standard towards Iranian and Muslim nation.This kind of dealing makes you think,Does super power acts this way? God Bless Iran and Ahmadinejad.

    "As a progressive Arab I am not supposed to theoretically ally myself with a theological regime, but from the point of view of our interest as Arabs fighting colonialism and Zionism, and as the present Iranian regime is among the very few forces that support our cause especially the Palestinian cause, and its Arab resistance organizations, we owe the Iranian regime gratitude, and we are ready to defend it against its foreign and certain internal critics and enemies."
