What's ur say about his statement.. Why did he say that in the first place? I think there's no doubt homosexuals get out of the middle east because these bastards keep on hanging them in ropes.. i actually have one of these pictures where they hang gay men in plazas where people watch them get executed... ill probbly show the link later on..

Of course there are gays in Iran and throughout the middle east, most of them though are extremely secretive or live double lives. More probably deny their natural sexual orientation and simply marry the opposite gender simply as a survival technique.
Ahmadinejad is crazy...but we knew that already.

I have no doubt that Ahmadinejad thinks that there are no gays in Iran because he does not personally know any, and any that he is made aware of are executed. When confronted by someone who said that they personally knew of gay people in Iran he asked where they lived at because he did know about them, which gave an impression that they would not live there for long.
Homosexuals in Iran are silent about who they are sexually attracted to because the punishment for being accused as gay is often death by hanging.
Iran, which bases its laws on religion instead of equality under the law, is not considered a free and open society and is often compared to a dictatorship. This is why many European countries refuse to extradite homosexual Iranians due to their certain death if they return to their country.

He is an a$$!!! He is trying to say that Iran, as an Islamic state, is superior to America, since they don't have any gays. I've chatted with a gay guy in Iran a few years back on Yahoo.. Unless he was a figment of my imagination, I'd say Iran has gay people..

Its really just an extention of the bigotry that plagues us here in the U.S ... in the 50s... "there were no gays"... because no one would admit it... and if anyone came in contact with a "gay" they saw them as someone with a mental disorder... that ****'s still going on here with some of the backwoods A**holes on here... wrap that in the middle east mentality and you have a guy who basically says " we don't have homosexuals".. which means they either live undetectabley in the closet or we kill them immediatetly... this guy believes we're about as important as a cockroach in his supper dish!!...
scary sh*t

Its true...... unlike the united states where only 30% of suicides are gay 100% of Iranian suicides are gay. They just announce their " pride" and let every one know they are " born that way" then go hang themselves in the public square.

There may be no gays in Iran but there seems to be more than a few fags.Sneaking bombs into Iraq and not having the balls to stand up to Americas best lgbt soldiers to me would indicate a country full of Fags.

I am not surprised. He has acted like a complete lunatic nut case in the past. If anything, he is being consistent.
I am more shocked that he is here and no one has shot him yet. Why he is being giving a slate to speak on at the university is a travesty in of itself. I though this dude was our enemy (axis of evil??????).

Because he's not gay- he's just one of those "straight guys" that has sex with other men.
