President Mohammad Khatami said here on Sunday that U.S. President George W. Bush and Al-Qaeda terrorist network leader Osama bin Laden use very similar language

“The words and deeds of Bush and Bin Laden are alike, producing the sound of violence and waging war against the world. In fact, the words used by Bush and Bin Laden are almost exactly the same,” Khatami said during a meeting with a group of Kermanshah Province academics.

Referring to the U.S. animosity toward Iran over the past 26 years, the president noted that Washington supports the most Neanderthal governments in the world for the sake of its own interests, adding, “So how can it establish democracy and freedom in a country like Iran?”

It is foolish for the enemies of the Islamic Republic to place hope in a country like the United States, which intends to devour the world and establish puppet regimes, he said.

If Bush and bin Laden are alike, then why are they harboring bin Laden?

I bet he was thinking of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

Not very polite, though. "Neanderthal" - very plain speaking for a Persian gentleman.

This noodle-brain (funny he has one wrapped around his head) has committed another crime, hasn't he? Hasn't he endangered the life of the president of the US, inviting terrorist association and attention. Hope GWB doesn't sneeze on the red button over Tehran. No more Shar'ia and Mecca for him only I wouldn't be sad one bit. What sort of continent does he have.. after all that drivel came out his mouth instead of you know where?

Actually the Shiite Taliban of Tehran and Sunni Taliban and Al-Qaeda have more stakes in common!

No difference between Molla Omar of Kabul and Khamenei of Tehran

Khatami has gotten real violent, arrogant and aggressive ever since he lost virtually all credibility in Iran by siding with the ruling hard-liners rather than the people who once supported him.

He wasn't saying things like this when the people thought he'd be different than tha hard-liners.

"Khatami: 'Bush and Bin Laden are alike.'"

Heh, heh. That's like western culture neo-Nazis saying that we "neo-cons" do what the Nazis did. The extent of their logic in argument is to use many words to point a finger back at us.

"He forgot to mention that Bush is nothing but a Zionist puppet for the evil NeoConservative Jew Ariel Sharon."

Ha, ha! You got my funny bone with that one. We could add that Tony Blair is the Zionist "poodle" (British majority, opposition and backbencher insult) for our Zionist President, who is a Zionist puppet for the evil neo-conservative Jew, Ariel Sharon. ...and that we Americans are the Zionist robots for our Zionist President, who has a Zionist British lapdog, and is a Zionist puppet of Ariel Sharon. This could really be extended!

--happily mesmerized Zionist robot peasant whose university instructors were descended from monkeys and pigs

LOL!
