Tehran, Sep 3: Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will visit New York this month to attend the United Nations General Assembly, state television IRIB reported.

In an interview with the channel Saturday, Foreign Minister Manuchehr Mottaki confirmed that Ahmadinejad will visit the UN General Assembly and deliver a speech in front of the assembly.

This would be the second visit by Ahmadinejad to the US since taking office in August 2005. In September 2005, he was at the UN headquarters in New York to speak to the General Assembly.

He is a child who is searching for hil limit of bad behavior. His people will believe him to be stronger than W because he was allowed to come uncaptured.

The solution to the Iran problem would be to take him into custody for crimes in 1980.

Somebody posted this link this morning (don't remember who.) He thinks that when he speaks to the UN, there's an aura around him and no one "bats an eye."

Giuliani rejects $10 million from Saudi prince
October 12, 2001 Posted: 3:14 AM EDT (0714 GMT)



Giuliani: "Not only are those statements wrong, they're part of the problem."


NEW YORK (CNN) -- Mayor Rudy Giuliani said Thursday the city would not accept a $10 million donation for disaster relief from Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal after the prince suggested U.S. policies in the Middle East contributed to the September 11 attacks.

"I entirely reject that statement," Giuliani said. "There is no moral equivalent for this [terrorist] act. There is no justification for it. The people who did it lost any right to ask for justification for it when they slaughtered 4,000 or 5,000 innocent people."

Prince Alwaleed gave the mayor a check after a Thursday morning memorial service at Ground Zero, the site of the World Trade Center towers destroyed in the attacks.

The prince offered his condolences to the people of New York, but after the ceremony he released a statement suggesting the United States "must address some of the issues that led to such a criminal attack."

"The check has not been deposited. The Twin Towers Fund has not accepted it," Giuliani said in a statement late Thursday.

The prince's statement said the United States "should re-examine its policies in the Middle East and adopt a more balanced stand toward the Palestinian cause.

"While the U.N. passed clear resolutions numbered 242 and 338 calling for the Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and Gaza Strip decades ago, our Palestinian brethren continue to be slaughtered at the hands of Israelis while the world turns the other cheek," the statement said.

Giuliani flatly rejected the prince's position. "To suggest that there's a justification for [the terrorist attacks] only invites this happening in the future," he said. "It is highly irresponsible and very, very dangerous.

"And one of the reasons I think this happened is because people were engaged in moral equivalency in not understanding the difference between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism.

"So I think not only are those statements wrong, they're part of the problem," Giuliani said.

Agreements with the UN allow hostile foreign members of the UN to be able to visit the NYC area with restrictions. Castro and other hostile government heads have done this. They cannot roam beyond what their visit to the UN involves so basically the airport and to the UN and maybe a hotel nearby and thats it. Unless the US is prepared to boot out the UN its gonna remain the case.

Iran demands UN be relocated from New York

Tehran, Iran, Sep. 04 – Iran suggested on Monday that the United Nations headquarters be relocated from New York to a country other than the United States.

“The U.S. tries to pressure Iran in any way possible. We are convinced that considerations should be made regarding the United Nations which is based in this country”, government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham told reporters during his weekly press conference.

“Either the UN must be relocated from the U.S. and set up in a different country or the U.S.’s provisions in this regard must be limited so that the UN plays a more serious role”, Elham said.

I lost faith in the CIA ever since they tried to kill Castro with Operation Mongoose. Explding cigars, powder that will make his beard fall out. They got the plans from the ACME catalog after the Coyote was done with it.
All we have to do is park a Missle in his front yard, like we did in Lybia. That shut him up.
All Muslims understand is brute force, like the wild dogs they are. You have to show them who is boss, even if it means slapping them around.

Of course Executive Orders can be rescinded by Executive Order.

I often wonder when a lot of military pundits go on TV to talk about bombing Iran's various nuclear facilities, when the single most valuable target would be to drop a couple 2,000lb. bombs on a meeting of Iran's leaders. Leave the infrastructure, take out the nutjobs in charge.

In 1979, they grabbed 66 Americans in our Embassy and held them for 444 days - spitting on them and abusing them.

Our people (66 of them) expected diplomatic immunity, yet were subjected to 444 days of torture and imprisonment at the hands of Ahmmadinejad and company. Let's give him the same.

If you multiply 66 times 444 you get 29,304 man days, or a total of 80 years. So let's throw this POS in Gitmo and keep him for the exact same amount of time and call it even.

Better yet, let's just grab hm and publicly execute him.
Screw the Iranians.

Ahmadinejad is using the UN as an excuse to come here and there are no plans to meet with Bush

However .. Jimmy Carter has no excuse and the pictures will not make for good PR for the Democrats come November

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3-2335713,00.html
(snip)
The highlight could be a meeting with Jimmy Carter, the former American President who heads the Carter Centre in Atlanta, a conflict-resolution organisation

Hope some courageous, progressive film maker doesn't make a fake documentary about Ahmadinejad getting assassinated. We wouldn't want to hurt his feelings.
