President In The States

Iran’s president takes foto with American university students

As you know, Dr Ahmadinejad, president of Iran has been in the US of A. I’ve found some fotos of his trip which are so interesting for me even. I thought to share with you here..

He gave many many interviews and responses to the press and the world of media and has had a loud of interviews and meetings.
There were meetings with American students and professors, different interviews with New York Times, CNN, Pasifica, Los Angeles Times, etc..

He also had a dialogue dinner -traditional breaking of the Ramadan fast- on Thursday with around 200 people of various faiths including Mennonites, Jews and Zoroastrians who said they wanted to promote peace by meeting Iranian president.  Source

Part of his qoutes:

“It is deeply disastrous to witness that some presidential or premier nominees in some big countries have to visit these people, take part in their gatherings, swear their allegiance and a commitment to their interests, in order to attain financial or media support.
This means that the great people of America and various nations of Europe need to obey the demands and wishes of a small number of acquisitive and invasive people. These nations are spending their dignity and resources on the crimes and occupations and the threats of the Zionist network against their will.”

And the most famous quote:

“The US government has made a series of mistakes in the past few decades. The imposition on the US economy of the years of heavy military engagement and involvement around the world . . . the war in Iraq, for example. These are heavy costs imposed.
American empire in the world is reaching the end of its road, and its next rulers must limit their interference to their own borders,”

And i like this quote:

“As long as the aggressors, because of their financial, political and propaganda powers, not only escape punishment, but even claim righteousness, and as long as wars are started and nations are enslaved in order to win votes in elections, not only will the problems of the global community remain unsolved, but they will be increasingly exacerbated,” the Iranian president said..
