Let's compare

Here's a report by CNN: after 1 week they decide to cover something

//www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/04/17/carter.h...

And here's the Reuter story:

Farokh.....

What does impartiality have to do with your fantasy that I'm a member of AIPAC?

What I blame Carter for is his total incompetence in foreign matters. Within a year, Carter went from kissing the Shah's ass at Niavaran Palace to bringing up fabricated human rights abuses and calling that degenerate so-called ayatollah a 'holy man".

All because Carter wanted to bully the Shah into selling oil to the U.S. in a side deal at a fixed price of $8 a barrel, and the Shah ended up giving Carter the big bilaakh as his answer. 

That "holy man" is responsible for how many Iranian deaths? How many children? That "holy man" and his band of thieves have squandered and stolen more money than the Sicilian Mafia, Russian Mafia, and the Catholic Church combined. The Iranian economy is in the toilet and the IRI has Hamas and Hezbollah on the top of the payroll list.

Carter caused the present day Middle East infighting. His peaceful efforts? Please. His efforts has resulted in what you see today on the news. And his going to meet with these people in defiance of the State Department only serves to create the perception that he feels he is above the law.

I know CNN hads biased reporting. If you truly read my post, you would understand why I think they aren't covering this.

Look in the mirror Kaveh

Here are the opinion pieces you wrote here. Does this sound like an impartial person?

You are blaming Carter for his peaceful efforts to see all sides of the problems facing the Middle East infighting and also justifying the way CNN runs their biased reporting.

I think since 2000, CNN and Fox News have been competing to find junk and feed it to the people in this country and if you agree with their ways, then what would that make you?

I think you are a lot happier with the actions or non-actions of GW than Carter.

Jimmy Carter, not just as a U.S. Citizen, but as a former president of
all things, should have greater respect for the State Department's
directive. His unsanctioned and highly frowned upon trip to meet with
terrorists sends the wrong message to those who wish to escalate the
violence. Reporting on the trip would give it credibility, which
neither Carter or Hamas is entitled to.

As a Democrat, Carter's trip can easily be used to attack the
Democratic Party's overall platform. As the party's elder statesman,
and oldest living former president, with so much polarity and discord
right now within the Democratic Party's own ranks over Obama vs.
Clinton, Carter's trip can legitimately be interpreted as an
endorsement of Hamas, which would be fatal to the Democrats come
November.

CNN clearly wants no part of reporting this, which has the potential
for opening up a barrel of monkeys. Monkeys have a tendency to throw
their own excrement, and CNN would end up having it all thrown on them.

Carter's visit with Hamas is further proof that he was quite simply the worst president in history.

This moron called Ruhollah Moussavi-Hendi "a holy man". The same
Ruhollah Moussavi-Hendi who is single-handedly responsible for the
deaths of countless Iranians since February 1979.

All of today's terrorism, as we know it, can be traced back directly
to the actions, inactions, stupidity, ignorance and incompetency of
James Earl Carter, Jr., the 39th President of the United States.

Farokh2000....

Is Kaveh Nouraee an AIPAC member or supporter?

Gee, I don't know, Farokh.....Why don't you just ask him?

Farokh, I am not a member or supporter of any PAC, whether it is AIPAC, Tupac or a six-pack.

I am curious to know from where you get this idea. You are making an assinine assumption. Therefore, it is your sense of reality that comes into question.

Nouraee an AIPAC?

Is kaveh Nouraee an AIPAC member or supporter?

Like AIPAC and their supporters, he has no sense of reality, just unconditional loyality and support for the criminal government in Israel.

It is so sad to see how so called humans behave inhumanly. 

After 30 years in diaspora

It is sad to observe the lack of democratic values among Iranians after 30 years of babbling against the IRI and its methods by this same group.

Reading the comments, one comes to the conclusion that:
1) It is OK for the press to suppress news that is disliked by the sitting government
2) It is OK for the press to suppress news that its owners/shareholders don't like.
3) No one should step out of party line. Isn't that communism?

P.S. If I remeber correctly, it was the US created and Saudi financed Mujahedin in Afghanistan (later Osama & Co) that was the start of Sunni terrorism in the world.

carter reminds me of Lord montablan

the british foreign secretary who kissed so much hitler,s ass the got hitler to finally get the courage to attack france.carter is partly to blame for creation of todays arab extremists by cozying up to terrorists.he should just go back to georgia and keep farming cotton.thats a trade he knows something about.

He dared

In fact Carter is the most courageous of American presidents. He dreamed and Sadat and Begin signed the peace accord. A few years later Robin and Arafat were shaking hands. The guy who killed Robin was a (wanabee) mullah. There is no doubt that someday the Israeli president and Hamas guys will be signing peace accord. Its like Frough Farrokhzad, todays Persian girls owe most of their freedom to her. You need to dare and don't worry, as the saying goes you need to break some eggs to make an omelet.

OK, Back to CNN

Jimmy Carter, not just as a U.S. Citizen, but as a former president of all things, should have greater respect for the State Department's directive. His unsanctioned and highly frowned upon trip to meet with terrorists sends the wrong message to those who wish to escalate the violence.

Back to CNN

Regardless of what one may think of ex-president
Carter, the real focus here is on CNNs censorship. Government of
Israel has boycotted Carters visit. But why should CNN, a news
organization do the same? As of five minutes ago, there were no
reporting either on CNN international nor U.S domestic edition headline
on this, please check the news wire.

Here's what an Israeli newspaper editorial had to say about Carters trip:

Do you have a basic right to know?

Carter's Visit....

Carter's visit with Hamas is further proof that he was quite simply the worst president in history.

This moron called Ruhollah Moussavi-Hendi "a holy man". The same Ruhollah Moussavi-Hendi who is single-handedly responsible for the deaths of countless Iranians since February 1979.

All of today's terrorism, as we know it, can be traced back directly to the actions, inactions, stupidity, ignorance and incompetency of James Earl Carter, Jr., the 39th President of the United States.

Carter's visit

All of us who don't care much for Israel should spread the news of Carter's historic visit. He's there and he is making a statement. Finally the Palestinians will get some exposure too. It's about time.
