Lies, lies and more lies about President Ahmadinejad

By David Duke

Once more the Zionist-controlled media in America deluges the American public with lies about Iran’s President, Ahmadinejad.

The Jewish extremist Neocons want to repeat the catastrophe of the American war for Israel in Iraq, a war based completely on lies. As most Americans now know, the Iraq War has been nothing but catastrophic for the true interests of the American people.

And now the lie machine is going full bore. In thousands of articles, news shows, public statements and the like we are hearing two constantly repeated lies about the Iranian President.

First we hear incessantly that he has called for Israel to be “wiped off the map,” an allusion to some sort of nuclear holocaust over Israel. This allegation is a bald-faced lie. I was present for one of his speeches in Tehran in which he supposedly made this threat against Israel. In fact, he said he thought the Zionist regime would fall with time just as the Communist regime in Russia fell. Was Russia wiped off the map when Communism fell? Of course it was not. The word map was not even used, and In his speech Ahmadinejad went on to say that the human rights of all people in the Mideast must be respected, Muslim, Jew and Christian and that he hoped there would be real democracy where the people of the region could freely vote for the kind of government they wanted. That is the opposite of the reported “wipe Israel off the map lie,” a vicious lie intended to beat the drums for murderous and catastrophic war against Iran.

The second major lie about Ahmadinejad is that he is a “Holocaust denier.” Ahmadinejad has from the beginning said that he believes there were terrible crimes against Jews during the Second World War that nobody denies, but he has simply said that real history means that all points of view should be debated and heard. He also correctly points out that 60 million people died in the war, mostly civilians, so why does the world hear more about Jewish suffering in the press than about all the other 60 million victims of the war combined!

Why is the Holocaust brought up almost every day in the press, over 60 years after the war? He suggests that there are political reasons for this; that the Holocaust is used to justify Zionist crimes against millions of Palestinians and other Middle easterners. He rightly suggests that that is the reason why we hear little about the far more murderous Communist gulags and the communist holocaust against tens of millions, or the ethnic cleansing and murder of millions of Germans at the end of the Second World War. The Russian, Eastern European, German victims of the war have no powerful lobby and no powerful representation in a world press dominated by Jewish extremists.

The fact is that Ahmadinejad did not sponsor a “Holocaust Denial” conference in Tehran, he sponsored a Conference for free speech and research on the Holocaust. He was trying to present a forum for academic free speech on the issue. As a speaker at the conference I heard many speakers defend the official Holocaust story, but I also heard many academics raise legitimate questions. Ahmadinejad pointed out rightly that thousands of people, including many academics, have been jailed for simply questioning some parts of the establishment view of the Holocaust story. That is the real affront to humanity he says, jailing people for their opinions, as historian David Irving was jailed in Austria for giving his historical opinion on aspects of the Holocaust.

Instead of condemning Ahmadinejad for allowing free speech on the Holocaust, shouldn’t the President of the United States condemn European nations that violate the most basic of human rights, freedom of speech, thought, opinion and conscience? Is that not the real affront to humanity? With all the media claims of suppression of human rights in Iran, people in the West should be ashamed that the President of Iran should be the one to defend freedom of speech in Europe and America.

The Iranian President has also been painted by the media as anti-American. He has repeatedly voiced his respect and friendship toward the American people. What he opposes is the policies of the United States government. Well, so do millions of Americans. Recent polls show that a vast majority of Americans ourselves are opposed to the policies of those who are controlling our government. We are, for instance, opposed to Americans dying and being maimed by thousands in the Iraq war, a war for Israel not America. Ahmadinejad is anti-George Bush and by the way, according to recent polls, so are over 60 percent of the American people. He opposes, as do the American people, the Israeli extremists who have had so much control over American foreign policies, policies that have been detrimental to Iran, the Mideast and to America as well.

The Jewish extremists in government and in the press are now trying to drum up a terrible war with Iran that will unleash terrorism and economic disaster that would make the Iraq War seem minor in comparison.

To create this war they must create a monster. They must turn the rather soft-spoken Ahmadinejad into a fire-breathing threat. To do so they must lie, lie, lie and lie again. The very proof the of the controlled press in America is the constantly repeated, easily disproven lie that President Ahmadinejad threatened to wipe Israel off the map. If they can lie about this a thousand times and get away with it, what else do they lie about?

I urge the American people to reject these lies, to not be manipulated by them. To truly defend the interests of America, not the interests of Israel, Iran or any other country!

As a former American elected official who has received significant votes in major American elections, as an American citizen, I welcome the Iranian President here and demand that the press honestly reports his statements and positions and not lie to the American people. I urge the officials in the United States Government to follow a path of peace and not the insanity and catastrophe of an Israeli-promoted war with Iran.

I know what it is like to be demonized in the press, but isn’t it interesting that even though the media often portrays me as an enemy of human rights, I have consistently stood up for equal rights, freedom of speech, the freedom of all peoples to preserve their heritage, and for peace between nations.

I will continue to pursue those goals and I hope I can reach you today with this message of truth about the President of Iran, a message that must be heard by the American people and all the people of the world.

Anyone who dares to stand up to Jewish extremism, who exposes the terrorist and Jewish supremacist state of Israel will endure the lies, hatred and smears that I and President Ahmadinejad have suffered.

Those who stand up to the power of the Jewish extremists can always expect such.

I hope all fair minded people in America and around the world will begin to understand this fact.

Peace to All.
