In a rush to judge

When they heard it was an Iranian who was supposed to stay at their hotel, in their country, the staff from Helmsley Hotel didn't stop to think even for a second that the person they were going to play host to was in fact a human who shouldn't be judged just for being a part of a nation with a dark history. I don't think anyone would have received him anywhere, not in the New York hotels, in the  Hawaii hotels or in any other place. 

AMERICAN DREAM

Why should people bring the Israeli flag? Or ANY flag other than an Iranian one for that matter? It is clear what your agenda is but perhaps you should find a more suitable venue for it. This is about Iran and human rights.

You are welcome!

You are welcome. Now I don't know if it will be in this hotel or somewhere else, but we are invited!

Thank you

Thank you for being so considerate and courteous!

Yes we can

Yes we can

Can we

Can we stay on the topic of this blog? Why did some people have to come here to hijack this blog and show off some poll numbers? If you like the poll numbers, create your own blog and brag about it!!

thanks,

Jaleho

Okay I take your numbers as the real numbers. Because in fairness nobody else can offer other irrelevant numbers backed up by some other irrelevant poll numbers.

So these numbers represent urban population versus rural and rural based urban population. Roughly speaking, traditional base versus modern base.

I don't see them as 'green' and 'anti-green'. I see them as Iranian people for which both base is covered in my project. If the worse comes to worst, I'll be left alone with my ideas. I'm sure those who think they have a better idea will not be that much worried about it!

As I wrote before:

If Iranian President Ahmadinejad is not able to get a hotel room, the place to protest is:

Permanent Mission of Iran at the United Nations

622 Third Ave. New York, NY 10017
Tel: (212) 687-2020

Bring the following:

1.  1978 Iranian Flag

2.  Israeli Flag

3.  American flag

and sing this song:

This is the country that has given you the opportunity to protest Ahmadinejad's visit.  The only place in the world one can do that in front of the United Nations!

Because, nothing is sacred!

The simple question is

If the election was not rigged why the regime felt itself in danger and did exaction that no other government in the modern did to its own people, i.e. rapes, killings, murders. ?

Many internal and foreign sources came to this conclusion that the election was rigged. But, as A.N. who denies every simpe truth, his malijak in this site too, tries to show us her 2 cents lie as an absolute truth.

That reminds me a Mollanasredin story, Molla was out of money and every morning when ridding his donkey he repeated to himself that he was a rich man. He did that, till one day he woke up and thought that he was a prince.

Gotham Hall cancellation

After making some calls today to mgt and their investors, I was told the event is not taking place. We'll see, but I'm awaiting an email from the manager there to confirm. There still should be a way to make sure they follow-through on their promise.

hotel stay

The point is to make him feel as unwelcome as possible. I've heard Gotham Hall cancelled his upcoming engagement. We don't need his blood money.

benross, I don't think the Greens care

about numbers at all, otherwise they'd concentrate on the fact that 24 million is much bigger than 13 miliion.

For you, those are naturally the irrelevant numbers, but I think you should concentrate on the number 40 million which MUST BE extremely relevant for you!

What else would you base your reality on, otherwise?

Dear Jaleho

I'm one of few in this site who happen to believe Ahmadinejad would have won the election with the real numbers. And my evaluation is not based on polls, or election results, but my overall perception of the Iranian society structure.

My point is that it really doesn't matter. I saw superior numbers for Ahmadinejad based on my perception, the same way I see overwhelming support for undoing Islamic revolution, non of which can be detected through polls in a society which has survived 30 years of Islamic regime only by deception.

As a matter of fact, I see your argument about numbers as pointless as the argument of green movement supporters about the numbers. To me, this has never been the issue. So I'm not surprised at all that you think my constitutional monarchic approach is laughable.

I'm happy that at least there is something you can share with your green opponents!

Dear benross, REPUTABLE POLLS

recently validated the other reputable poll that has been conducted 3 weeks prior to the election in Iran. These are internationally respected agencies. You are proposing that we ignore those and accept your opinion instead? I guess tens of millions of Iranians who poured in the streets in 1979 revolution, and thousands of videos of them won't convince you that Iranians didn't care about monarchy! Let me copy the poll that truthseeker provided, maybe you want to note that it validates EXACTLY the poll that international agencies have taken before the election. coincidence, you think?!

IRAN: New Poll Finds Strong Domestic Support for Regime
By Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON, Sep 19 (IPS) - Despite persistent mass demonstrations protesting June's disputed reelection of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a new survey of Iranian public opinion released here Saturday suggests majority domestic support for both him and the country's basic governing institutions.

Four out of five of the 1,003 Iranian respondents interviewed in the survey rekeased by WorldPublicOpinion.org (WPO), a project of the highly respected Programme on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA) of the University of Maryland, said they considered Ahmadinejad to be the legitimate president of Iran.

Sixty-two percent of respondents said they had "a lot of confidence" in the declared election results, which gave Ahmadinejad 62.6 percent of the vote within hours of the polls' closing Jun. 12 and which were swiftly endorsed by the Islamic Republic's Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Three of four respondents said Khamenei had reacted correctly in his endorsement.

Opposition candidates and their supporters contested the official results, setting off mass protests centred in Tehran. At least 30 people were reported killed and thousands more arrested by the regime's paramilitary and security forces in the days and weeks that followed in what most analysts consider the most serious domestic challenge to the Islamic Republic in its 30-year history.

The new poll, which was conducted Aug. 27-Sep. 10 by native Farsi speakers who interviewed respondents by telephone from outside Iran, also found that 63 percent of respondents favour restoring diplomatic relations with the United States; 18 percent said they "strongly" favour renewing ties; 43 percent said they favoured it "somewhat".....

What's the use of preventing him from staying at an American hotel?  He will end up staying at the Iranian Mission to the United Nations for free.  The Iranian Mission to the United Nations is located at:

Permanent Mission of Iran at the United Nations

622 Third Ave. New York, NY 10017
Tel: (212) 687-2020

If you ask me, it is better for Ahmadinejad to spend his Iranian Rials at an American hotel where the money he spends will help American efforts to overthrow him and his banana republic.  As a freedom fighter I am all for depleting every single Iranian Rial from that Banana Republic.  I will be protesting when Ahmadinejad comes.  Me and my friends will bring our 1978 Iranian flags, our American Flags and our Israeli flags.  And the theocracy in Tehran will be shivering in its pants big time.  This is America!

We will make sure this time the voices of truth, justice and the American way will and shall be heard!

Great Job all of You

Many Iranians like yourselves members of several forums and organizations have been pressuring the hotels for a week now.   Great job to all of you.   I said that so you would know your efforts does pay off.   //forums.iransportspress.com/showthread.php?t=61454&page=2

BTW - AN is now trying to get into the Gotham Hall hotel on Broadway - and the kids are already driving the hotel management crazy.  

Indeed!

How this despotic monster is even allowed to set foot on American soil is beyond me!

Send him to Venezuela.  I hear Chavez will gladly welcome him bent over and with his buttocks up in the air.

PERS66

The Shah in the video clips was demanding to be removed.  One should never spread lies about the great Jewish people.  This is the way it is.  Some Israelis believe that the land of Israel is from the Nile to the Euphrates.  Some believe that Iran is part of greater Israel because Esther lived in Iran. 

Fox News

A very reilable news source.

American Dream

All that the Shah sed in that particular video clip is true, you have to be such a dumb ass not to know that by now (some 35 years after that interview!) just like the comment you made about the song Aria Naaz, you miss read it for Arianna and went on blabbing on and commenting on it for half a page, stupid.

The American Dream

The American Dream is the only way out for Iranians world wide.

The destiny and destination of Iran is a democratic republic like the United States of America with the social freedoms of Amsterdam.

Anything less would be barbaric.

Bring the following 3 things to the protest:

1.  The 1978 Iranian Flag.

2.  The Israeli Flag

3.  The American Flag

Let us show that the Iranian President does not represent Iranians anywhere.

AN place is in the zoo,with American dream

all the Iranian in US should have a big rally against the little AN and his master velayate vagheeh,this would be big slap on the face of IRI agents and tudeh party.

DOWN WITH iri.

duh......?

American dream I always taught here in the u.s of a     we offer the best education to our kids and not dirty politic specially the elementary level where mostly they sing and play: humpty dumpty sat on a wall...........

bichare ma Iraniha...........

P.s I think the whole cancelation and such is just a scheme

let's keep in mind 9/23/1980. 

Maziar

Ahmadi and American Dream!

Fantastic gesture by the Hotel Owner/Management to welcome his American Dream Trip... Also a great sign of support and solidarity with Iranians worldwide to further belittle An's disgraceful ,horrible and true ugly face... 

American Dream,

What's your agenda here? I doubt you are an American! If you were truly an American (without ulterior motives), wouldn't you want to do better things with your time and life than arguing with Iranians and writing nonesenses/misinformation such as comparing Shah with the An. for example? Why else would you come to this (and such) sites? To learn English? :-)

Dude, one last time! There is no comparison between Shah (RIP) and AN ! Regardless of where you are from, it's OK if you hated Shah, but to draw paralles between the two (Shah and An.) is quite ignorant... 99 out of 100 people know that by now and you are the 100 and only one who hasn't got it yet! 

Uh-oh........

AN got snubbed! Foreign agents are behind this for sure this time.

Advice:

AN can always rent a RV....if protesters gather outside his RV, he can just get on the freeway for a few laps!........ I am really excited about the coming week!

--------------------------------------------

It is interesting that they booked the hotel four months ago (before the June 12 election). Apparently AN somehow knew in May that he would be re-elected and come to UN. Wow! The election must be fixed for sure!!!  I wish IRI was a little more subtle and did not book the hotel that early to make them look bad!

put up a sleeping bag next to a public latrine

This filth and his entourage belong in the public outhouses.  Even that is too much for him.  at least Americans will afford him that much and he should be kissing American hand for that.

American Dream, He was blunt

American Dream,

He was blunt for a diplomatic figure but right on the spot. I'm still amazed how he could be so blind to what was happening in his own country.

Truth Seeker,

Try to tell the truth from Iran over the phone to a total stranger calling him/herself a pollster. This is what will be the outcome for a truth seeker! far from broadband and internet and fashionable city life, do you know what people in their villages listen to through their little short wave radios?

Monarchists

Are not only blinded but ignorants. Be happy that people are not with you
