The BBC Beams at Iran
January 15th, 2009 by Syd Walker

President Mahmoud Ahmadinej

President Mahmoud Ahmadinej: a 'radical' who believes Iran is an independent country

Today is a big day in the fulcrum of George Bush’s ‘Axis of Evil’.

The enslaved Persian masses are about to be liberated by free speech.

To great fanfare, the BBC has opened a Farsi language satellite TV channel that will be broadcast at the recalcitrant middle eastern State that, like Venezuela and Bolivia, stubbornly refuses to do what’s it’s told and shut up.

Apparently the Iranian Government suspects the BBC is up to no good. The Guardian reports that “British intelligence, the official Irna news agency has warned, will be using the BBC to recruit Iranians for ‘espionage and psychological warfare’”.

Such an ungrateful attitude is a good example of why the poor Iranians urgently require BBC-style ideological liberation.

Jane Standley, BBC reporter with pre-cognitive powers?

I have a suggestion for them, if ever the BBC does talk-back for the benefit of seditious Persian viewers.

Why not ask the presenters how the BBC predicts the unprecedented collapse of a 47-storey skyscrapers half an hour in advance? How on earth do they do it? Ask them once. Then ask them again.

Ask them in Farsi.

They seem to have problems giving meaningful answers in plain English.

    Both sides of the story are important. I have a browse through Al Jazeera every now and then. It can be refreshing to get some “mainstream” news from a non News Corp. or Fairfax source.

    I listen to BBC world service at night – it has an imperialist angle alright !!! – it is part of the push to dismantle and dissolve the Resistance Bloc

    Palestinians are in the forefront against New World Order.

    The Israeli War on the Gaza Strip: “The Birth Pangs of a New Palestine/Middle East

    ‘ the Palestinian struggle is being waged on behalf of people everywhere’

    What is at stake is the imposition of a global neo-liberal economic agenda through force. The latter constututes a modern form of debt-ridden slavery and privatization, imposed by military force in the Middle East and worldwide.

    What is not always understood, is that the Palestinian struggle is being waged on behalf of people everywhere. The Palestinians are in the forefront in the battle against, speaking in a political and economic sense, the New World Order.

    The Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip against the Palestinians are part of a larger geo-strategic project. They are part of the birth pangs of a new Palestine and Middle East in the eyes of the U.S. and Israel. but this project will not proceed as envisaged by the U.S. and Israel. There is a wind of change and revolt throughout the Middle East and the Arab World. This process is unleashing a new wave of popular resistance directed against the U.S. and Israel, both within and beyond the Arab World.

    Operation Cast Lead has been planned for almost a year. The Shoah (Hebrew word for holocaust) that Matan Vilnai, an Israeli official, promised the Palestinians has been exposed even though many media sources have attempted to whitewash it.

    In the end it will be the people who will decide, against the interest of the politicians and their economic power brokers.

    The people see beyond the issues of nationality, ethnic division and man-made boundaries. They believe in justice and equity for all and they feel a pain in their hearts when they see the suffering of others, no matter the differences.

    Worldwide, those that are just and honorable are a nation to themselves whether they are Israelis or Arabs or Americans and it will be their choices that will decide the direction of the future.

    The Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, which includes a diverse spectrum of groups from Hamas to Communists (e.g., the Marxist Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine) and Christians, have done what the military foces of Jordan, Egypt, Syria, and Iraq could not do.

    The Israeli massacres in the Gaza Strip will prove to be a historic turning point and the catalyst behind change.

    The political and strategic map of the Middle East and the Arab World will be changed, but not in favour of Israel, the House of Saud and the dictators of the Arab World.

    Change is coming.
