The article claimed the Saudi monarch had expressed deep hatred toward Iran -- a rising Shia power in the Middle East -- as well as his country's archenemy, Israel, during a meeting in Jeddah with French Defense Minister Hervé Morin on June 5.

"There are two countries in the world that do not deserve to exist: Iran and Israel," the article cited French military and diplomatic sources as quoting King Abdullah.

You will not get any arguments from me on both points you made. I wholeheartedly agree with you on both points.

I also [sincerely] don't mean to "lecture" any one here. But I so often see people (not necessarily you) have good points to make and they allow their emotion get in the way of making that point either by exaggerating or use such wording that lessens the affect of their point. I hope I am not offending you by this as it has not been intended so, just a thought.

P.S. God knows I am guilty of doing the same thing but I am trying not to...

The point is that for the past 31 years all the IRI has done is to blame everything on the planet on "Zionists" and the "USA"....and it's really becoming boring and without any meaning at this point.  There is no giant conspiracy to hold the Iran back, and all the finger pointing is nothing but a poor attempt by the IRI to deflect attention from its incompetence and atrocities.  And anyone who regurgitates that nonsense is worthy of being labeled an "Islamist".  

Now, if you want to see deep rooted Arabian Peninsula racism toward Iranians (and others--including other Arabs) all you have to do is either 1) travel there, and/or 2) ask someone who has lived there for a while--such as an Egyptian.  They will tell you...as many of my Egyptian friends who had lived there have told me.  In fact, one of them left a very good job there to come to the U.S. to work at a menial job.   When I asked him why he did so, his response was (you guessed it) Saudis are too racist!!!

Nevertheless, don't you think using the term "Islamist" so often gives the same weight to you and those who use it just as often as those who use the word "Jews"? Just a thought!!!!

P.S. We all ought to know that the Arab leaders are just as much representative of their people as the IRI is representative of Iranian people. We can't stick our head in the sand for ever and not know who the enemy is.

P.S.S This whole design for divide between Arab nations (Saudi, Kuwait vs. Iraq) or Arab nations vs. Iran is planned and implemented by the West and only for their own interest. The America's steadfast support and protection of despicable regimes such as in Saudi Arabia ought to be condemned and looked at with care.

Nice! Let's count the number of times the words "Jew" & Israel

by Onlyiran on

were mentioned in a comment by one of out resident Islamists regarding an article which showed the historical anti-Iranian hatred by an Arab state in the Persian Gulf.  I count 5, and average of one per each line of the comment. :-))

You don't happen to be an anti-Semite by any chance, do you, "verytass"? :-))  Do you see "Jews" everywhere you go?  Do they lurk in your front lawn...trying to steal your woman...and your lunch?

Trying to blame the radib anti-Iranianism in the Arab world on Israel is like trying to blame...well, all of IRI's other shortcomings on them.  It's just another way of burying your head in the sand, and pretending that all is well in your little bubble.  FYI, these guys are the same people who used to hang Shah's picture around donkeys' necks and parade them through the streets when Shah was in power (let me guess...Israel told them to do so back then as well). They then went on to pour billions into Saddam's coffers during his war with Iran....I know, I know...the Jews told them to do so as well...I hear you man, I feel your pain....

Saudi King is a F*&$ing moron

by verytass on

For not knowing French government is run by jews and the celebration in Israel when Sarkozy became president and put many jews in charge of the government. I guess the "king" doesn't read the news. All the while the new israel lobby agenda is to create chasm between arab countries and Iran. I guess that makes the Israelis morons as well for siding with the Arabs.
