At AIPAC's annual conference on May 3rd Jane Harman (Democrat-California) talks about how to "handle Iran," including "separation" of ethnic groups in the country, with the goal of increasing dissent:

SO MUCH HYPOCRACY!
by BBC's Mullahs (not verified) on Mon May 18, 2009 01:02 AM PDTIt is amazing to me -- literally AMAZING! -- to read so many RETARDED posts on this thread!
People seemingly "uniting" in their hatred of Israel and AIPAC! How lovely!
Get real, folkes! No, louder: GET REAL, FOLKES!
Some of you deceptive jokers even want us to send our money to NIAC, the front organization for the barbaric mullahs in Iran! This particular crafty phony says that instead of going out to dinner once a week, we should just send the money to NIAC!
Are you freaking out of your mind, you backstabbing bache-mullah?!!!!
Whatever the Israelis are, and I know they're multi-dimensional bastards on many levels, they are NOT our REAL enemies! Why isn't Israel trying to foment unrest in Japan or Canada or Turkey for that matter? Because those countries are freaking REASONABLE and RESPONSIBLE members of the international community!
The mullahs, on the other hand, are the face of evil and deception worldwide!!! They are the REAL enemies of Iran! Right now at this very moment, we are experiencing a foreign occupation of Iran, by fanatic muslims who love Islam more than they love Iran!
To a nationalist like me, that's TREASON!!!
So many phonies "uniting" against "AIPAC." Get real! She only mentioned that she would support separating the "people" not the country itself -- it was all of 3 seconds anyway! And so much of the conversation was edited, deftly I might add. Besides, she can say whatever she wants! The mullahs have said FAR WORSE!!!!
Nobody can separate Iran, except the akhunds!!! They will one day screw things up so much, that a greater power like the US will have no choice BUT to bomb the hell out of our beloved homeland! And it will be nobody's fault but our own!!!!!!!
But mostly, it will be the fault of the freaking Islamist cockroaches ruling our country today! It will NOT!!!!!!! be the fault of Israel or AIPAC!
We Iranians are such freaking front-runners!!! Yeah, let's trash AIPAC and support NIAC!!!! What a joke!!! The mullahs and the NIAC are our REAL enemies, first and foremost! And don't ever forget it or be fooled by these jokers crying foul!
In fact, clips like these almost certainly help the mullahs, in that it "unites" the foolish masses in their favor against an exaggerated enemy (who under normal circumstances would be a natural alley in a sea of Arabs)! Who wins in this fabricated scenario? Nobody but the freaking mullahs! Now go sign your retarded petitions!
The best way
by kurdish Warrior (not verified) on Mon May 18, 2009 12:58 AM PDTto forward the message of this petition is not just having ordinary Iranian to sign it but to have the opposition ethnic groups such KDPI , etc sign it as well. That way we will have powerful voice.
It doesn't take any math to become congress woman
by dairus45 (not verified) on Mon May 18, 2009 12:41 AM PDTIran is 90+ percent Shiite.
She, and other "democratically" Presidents for life and kings in the middle east are supposedly fearful of a "Shiite Crescent".
Their brilliant solution to their made up problem? Divide Iran along ethnic lines. The congresswoman doesn't recognize that even though Iran is ethnically diverse (and has been through out its history) the overwhelming majority agree on their religion as Shiite. So if you are supposedly worried about "Shiite Crescent" then dividing Iran wont solve your fake nightmares.
Sad day
by net&yaboo (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 10:25 PM PDTIt would be a sad day if they split Iran.
Shame on us if we do not stop them.
long live mother land Iran.
Iran forever.
This is not new
by Ostaad on Sun May 17, 2009 09:06 PM PDTLet's put it in context. Here's Jane Harman, US Representative from District 36 of Southern California - Her district contains a huge concentration of liberals and libertarians that's why towards the end of the clip - (about minute 2.5) she starts talking about the two-state solution and what Israel needs to do.
She had just went through a rough period of her political, when the US government revealed the FBI had her under surveillance, which happened after Nancy Pelosi rejected her nomination to become the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committed.
She is a classic AIPAC-brand politician who has "tenure" with AIPAC and she will deliver on all talking points AIPAC and its big cheese political contributor class want her to say. The fact is Jane Harman is a political has-been. I was not impressed with other characters at the table too. People like John Woolsey, the former head of CIA, and Dan Senor the former special assistant and a PR man for Paul Bremer, the First Soltan of Baghdad. The fact there is such a lack of pictures of prominent US officials, who would not pass a chance to attend one of these AIPAC gala parties before Obama, shows the degree of decline AIPAC has experienced. AIPAC is the WARSAW Pact of the political lobbies. AIPAC is the AIG of foreign lobby groups. Lobbies like the J-Street are more moderate and fit the political contour of the US right now.
Therefore I'm not worried about Jane, she's doing her thing. That's all.
Put back together Azarbayjan,Kord,Afghan,Tajik,Baluch(estan)s &
by gol-dust on Sun May 17, 2009 09:02 PM PDTmost of the central Asia including Torkemanstan, Balkh, Samarghand together. She has it reversed. We are already divided! We have been divided for far too long. After all isn't that all of these countries were our lands? We are all the same people and culture. It is about time!
I guess, as Henry Kissinger (AIPAC boss) said last year, "As long as they don't want to go back the old Persian empire!" Should we?
Dehumanizing International Politics

Contact NIAC + DONATE
by 1L (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 05:38 PM PDTPETITIONS DONT HELP.
If you want to change things either:
1) donate to NIAC
2) if you are in her constituency, form a group, donate to her opponent and that opponent take the opposite position on Iran for you.
Its all $$$$$. Instead of one dinner out, donate that money to NIAC or one of our groups.
C'mon folks
by khaleh mosheh on Sun May 17, 2009 05:17 PM PDTWe really have got it all backwards here. The lady just wants democracy brought to Iran and would love nothing better than see the human rights improved in Iran.
With all this hate words
by reality check (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 05:12 PM PDTcoming from her, sure she is not from repulic of azerbijan, and i am not talking about jew form there, have you guys seen in different sites, how turk of turkey and republic of azerbijan insulting iranians, dying iran get bombed, so they can get, that so called south azerbijan, yah, divide among iranian, and conquer, deceitful technique.
The idea of separation of iran, has been dream of many others.
Harman
by Cyrus Bahrami (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 04:49 PM PDTThe best way to shut her up is to contribute to her opponent in the next election. At the same time let's treat all ethnic groups with all the rights they deserve and do not allow any one exploit our countrymen in any way.

Why don't they
by Jim L. Brother of Joe (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 03:38 PM PDTWhy don't all those who work for Israel go there and do their service to that country from their own hometowns instead of living in my country and work for a foreign nation?
Thank you for providing the web link! I politely registered my
by gol-dust on Sun May 17, 2009 03:28 PM PDToutrage. In a nut sell I told her:" Are you serving the interests of the US or Israel? You don't deserve to be in the US Congress! You and AIPAC are traitors and should be put on trial! Why don't you, your children and all AIPAC' members' children go to war against Iran first? Haven't you caused the deaths of so many American soldiers already?"
Send in your emails please.
by IRANdokht on Sun May 17, 2009 01:18 PM PDTI already received an auto-response to my direct email to her where I copied and pasted the text of the petition.
She claims that she's very interested to the opinion of people in my district (she barely beat her challenger last time). Lets hope that she reads the text and realizes that not all the people in her district are AIPAC sympathizers.
I am also glad to see the united voice of Iranians against these divisive plans and harsh actions that she's promoting. She was definitely speaking to this group in hopes of continued support. She needs to know that she's losing a big portion of the constituents.

by Amir J (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 12:18 PM PDTAs a daughter of holocaust survivor she sure seems to be full of hatred and anger towards Iran. As a voting democrat I am ashamed to have a representative like her in the office, her ideas proven useless and she should remember Iran is the reason she and her kind are alive today! another issue she has to realize that Iran been trough devastating wars throughout history and has survived. Mrs. Janet Harmen, when you talk of dividing Iran, every Iranian will dislike you and your kind, Regimes come and go, but Iran will be here for ever! long after you and I are gone!
Congresswoman Haraman is representing Israel not U.S's interest
by aynak on Sun May 17, 2009 12:14 PM PDTShe is portraying the interest of Israel as interest of U.S. As a Jewish Congresswoman of U.S she must know that interest of U.S and not Israel should take the promienent place in her agenda.
U.S and not Israel paid a heavy price in Iraq.
Regardless of how any Iranian feels about Islamic Republic, regimes come and go, but Iran will always be Iran.
Congressomwan Haraman should try to find a just settlement for the brutual occupation of Palestine instead of protecting Israel by dragging U.S into another fuitile no-win situation.
a retard but Iranians ........
by Faribors Maleknasri M. D. (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 11:56 AM PDTwhy not discuss the remark of another congrssman instead? who has newly said: Pakistan, Indien, North Korea and ISRAEL should join the assembly to prevent of spreading of nuc-weapons? So this gentleman has spoken out what had been an open secret since many years: Israel posesses nuc-weapons. This remark is an unnegligible violation of the tabu. Tabu was: Israel HAS nuc-weapons, WE know that, WE never mention it. Why not discuss this hot subject? you diligent commentators? and lay the slut&slag aside? why not? why such irrationality? we "IRANIAN"s?

whose fault is it? Answer: IRI Supporters and IRI Regime
by HATEIRI (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 09:04 AM PDTHow long? 30 years of oppression, humiliation, torture and murder by the regime against women, religious minorities, ethnic minorities and political prisoners.
Hundreds of thousands have died i the hands of this murderous regime and their fanatic and fascist ideology.
Whose to blame for the so called messages we hear about our country? You, IRI supporter and IRI regime
Here are her contact information: Please call her and let her and the congress know that you are not happy with her comments and you want her resignation for promoting:
1. Hatred

Please DO NOT leave threatening voice mails or call her names (stupid and bitch is OK. But Please do not make any threats. Just let her know that her remarks and comments were outline and someone like her shows that is not it to run an office and we believe she should resign as someone with such bellicose attitude and hatred for one country and nation.

Seems to me that Iranians are united
by Mashty (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 08:00 AM PDTIf you notice it is the foreigners, maybe say, Israelis in this site that seem to come as soon as they feel threaten that Iranians might be united and with Iranian names put their anti Iranian comment to give a sense that Iranians are still not united.
Most of the time that's how it works. It's like that dude from New York who went and interviewed the so called Iranian diplomat, to create the sense that Iranians get what they deserve.
The reality is that Iranians, even the back ass Mullahs in Iran are smarter than many educated politicians in the world. That's not because the Mullahs are something special, that's because they were born and raised in Iran and naturally they are smarter than the rest of the world!
Now take this lady and try to tell me that she is smart? She is so dumb not to realize that if she wants to talk to AIPAC to get elected she had to serve NY not west coast. This idiot doesn't realize that the West coast is "us" Iranians and she just signed her resignation for office.
Someone will follow this lady during the elections so we make sure she will never see her work desk again.
I am not sure if her apology would be accepted but it won't hurt a try.
Cheshmeh Islamic Republic Koor
by Javad Sabet (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 05:20 AM PDTThey are to blame for all of this and ultimately the Iranian people are responsible for not removing this evil regime. AIPAC would not be after Iran but for the evil and irrational behavior for the Akhoonds.
Someone should tell this stupid and ignorant woman
by BK (not verified) on Sun May 17, 2009 01:19 AM PDTthat Iran is one of the oldest nations on the face of the Earth. It's been a united and homogeneous country for nearly 3000 years. And no one, especially the likes of her, have any right or say to talk about its disintegration.
I'm part Fars, part Kurd, part Azari/turk and 100% Iranian and, even though I thoroughly dislike the Islamic Republic and the way it has been ruling Iran, I find it highly offensive that anyone like this ignorant and self-serving American can openly talk about the disintegration the land of my birth in such a blasé fashion to pander to her friends/pay masters at the Israeli lobby.
Her monumental idiocy is laid bare when after saying that “we should work to separate the ethnic populations of Iran” she goes on to say that “we are not at war with the Iranian people”! Does this fake blonde cretin not realize that “separating” the ethnic people’s of Iran, which will mean the end of Iran as a united country, is the worst kind of war you could possibly wage against the country?
Utterly disgraceful. And as much as I support the right of Israelis to their own country, their continued belligerent attitude in the region, mistreatment of the Palestinians and this kind of sable rattling and defiance of Intentional law can only win them more enemies.
One final point, as much as we should all condemn ignorant nit-wits like Jane Harman and AIPAC's buying of US politicians, let’s not forget that the openly hostile policies of the Islamic Republic towards the West/US and Israel over the past 30 years are also responsible for the kind of lunatic nonsense that we saw in this clip. If the Islamic Republic minded its own business and focused on improving the lives of the Iranian people, instead of continually sticking its nose in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict and shedding tears for and giving away Iranian people’s money to the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah, we wouldn’t have these dim-witted war-mongers on show in that clip talking about what to do with Iran.
