Do you agree that the neocons are BIG LIARS also? Why do we continue to sink to the level of trusting ? ..?

Question

.
the neocons anymore than we trust Iran's government? They lied about the USS Liberty; they lied about other events...


Iran's president has threatened to destroy Israel, or, to quote the misquote, "Israel must be wiped off the map." Contrary to popular belief, this statement was never made.
The Actual Quote:
So what did Ahmadinejad actually say? To quote his exact words in Farsi:
"Imam ghoft een rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods bayad az safheh-ye ruzgar mahv shavad."
That passage will mean nothing to most people, but one word might ring a bell: rezhim-e. It is the word "regime." pronounced just like the English word with an extra "eh" sound at the end. Ahmadinejad did not refer to Israel the country or Israel the land mass, but the Israeli regime. This is a vastly significant distinction, as one cannot wipe a regime off the map. Ahmadinejad does not even refer to Israel by name, he instead uses the specific phrase "rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods" (regime occupying Jerusalem).
.

So this raises the question.. what exactly did he want "wiped from the map"? The answer is: nothing. That's because the word "map" was never used. The Persian word for map, "nagsheh" is not contained anywhere in his original Farsi quote, or, for that matter, anywhere in his entire speech. Nor was the western phrase "wipe out" ever said. Yet we are led to believe that Iran's president threatened to "wipe Israel off the map." despite never having uttered the words "map." "wipe out" or even "Israel."
The Proof:
The full quote translated directly to English:
"The Imam said this regime occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time."

.

Word by word translation:

Imam (Khomeini) ghoft (said) een (this) rezhim-e (regime) ishghalgar-e (occupying) qods (Jerusalem) bayad (must) az safheh-ye ruzgar (from page of time) mahv shavad (vanish from).

Answer 1

The events surrounding the USS Liberty are as shameful as any I can remember. I knew guys that were on that ship.
I KNOW we can't trust the Bush administration ever.
Its hard to believe Cheney wants to plunge us into yet another war. Again its based on fales claims. I don't blame Iran for wanting nukes. Maybe if Iraq had them, we would not have invaded. The US is a very dangerous nation led by people under the impression that they know what they are doing and that they are right.

"Life is tough, it's even tougher when you're stupid." John Wayne (happy 100th birthday Duke!

Paraphrasing: "The American People are to be congratulated for having voted in the Democrats." President Ahmadinejad of Iran the day after the November elections. as reported on CNN Headline News.

Answer 3

No.

Right here he is asked directly about making the comment of wiping it off the map and he does not deny it.

He also spent a whole lot of time avoiding questions.
