From me to Iran with love!
Dear President Ahmedinajad,
Since when did the American and Iranian public begin to “share a common responsibility” to promote and protect freedom, human dignity and integrity? Do public floggings, beheadings, emasculation of the press and oppression of women count among some of the things American and Iranians share? When you make statements such as wiping out a sovereign nation from the map and deny the historical evidence of the holocaust, does that cast you in the mould of a man that cares about human dignity and integrity? What of those who constantly chant “death to America”?

While Divine providence has placed Iran and the United States geographically far apart, we should be cognizant that human values and our common human spirit, which proclaim the dignity and exalted worth of all human beings, have brought our two great nations of Iran and the United States closer together.
Dear President Ahmedinajad, did your definition of “all human beings” include your much hated Isreal?

Both our nations are God-fearing, truth loving and justice seeking, and both seek dignity, respect and perfection…We all deplore injustice, the trampling of peoples' rights and the intimidation and humiliation of human beings.
Including Iranians who burn flags, stone embassies, chant “death to America” and the 8 yr old kids who wish death on President Bush? Indeed Iranian people deplore the trampling of people’s rights, especially when they themselves have no rights under your self-righteous government. With such a wonderful society it is a wonder millions of Iranians are seeking asylum status in western nations!

Noble Americans, Our nation has always extended its hand of friendship to all other nations of the world.
Yes your “hands of friendship” are evident in the activities of Hezbollah in Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Israel. I’m sure when you talk of ALL nations of the world, you do not consider Isreal to be a part of that world.

We, like you, are aggrieved by the ever-worsening pain and misery of the Palestinian people. Persistent aggressions by the Zionists are making life more and more difficult for the rightful owners of the land of Palestine. In broad daylight, in front of cameras and before the eyes of the world, they are bombarding innocent defenseless civilians, bulldozing houses, firing machine guns at students in the streets and alleys, and subjecting their families to endless grief.
Dear Mr. President, if you had only watched those same cameras with objective lenses, you would have noticed some certain servants of yours firing rockets fitted with ball bearings into defenceless Isreali settlements. Infact a closer look would have convinced you some of those weapons were shipped from your armory! Need we remind about you that your government is a major financier of hizballah?

Palestinian mothers, just like Iranian and American mothers, love their children, and are painfully bereaved by the imprisonment, wounding and murder of their children. What mother wouldn't?
Sir, you and I know the truth! That these women are no mothers but human shields used by terrorists;
a. To enable terrorists escape an Israeli retaliation
b. As bait for media propaganda

Is it not possible to put wealth and power in the service of peace, stability, prosperity and the happiness of all peoples through a commitment to justice and respect for the rights of all nations, instead of aggression and war?
Very possible sir! May I also ask if the billions being funneled to hezballah and other terrorist organizations cannot be put to better use for the more than 40% of the Iranian population living below the poverty line.

We all condemn terrorism, because its victims are the innocent.
Once again sir, you are spot on! The big difference however is that while some of us condemn terrorism, you condemn terrorism by shipping weapons and funds to hizballah and numerous terror organizations primarily to destabilize the Lebanese government and launch attacks on defenceless Israeli citizens.

But, can terrorism be contained and eradicated through war, destruction and the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocents?
No sir! Thanks to you we now know terrorism can be eradicated by fanning the embers of religious fundamentalism, funding terror organizations, threatening to wipe nations of the map, denying the holocaust and chanting “death to America”.

Now that Iraq has a Constitution and an independent Assembly and Government, would it not be more beneficial to bring the US officers and soldiers home, and to spend the astronomical US military expenditures in Iraq for the welfare and prosperity of the American people? As you know very well, many victims of Katrina continue to suffer, and countless Americans continue to live in poverty and homelessness.
Thank you for sparing a thought for the welfare of Katrina victims’ sir! Your magnanimity and deep love for Americans cannot but be acknowledged. But sir, perhaps if you spent more time focusing on the pervasive poverty, illiteracy, unemployment and growing discontent in your own nation, it might reduce the huge wave of of Iranian immigrants and asylum seekers to the US and Europe.

Thank you for sparing a thought for the citizens of your great satan sir, may Allah grant you long life to continue to deny the holocaust and may he grant you the strength to threaten to wipe other nations from the map even while you continue to decieve yourself as a man genuinely interested in peace!

And lest i forget sir, "Death to America"!
