A New European

Die Europäer haben an Moore links und rechts Preise verteilt, verehren ihn als Gott des kleinen Mannes während sie ihn dabei steinreich machen. Die Iraner hingenen unterstützen zu 70% Demokratie im Iran, wollen ihr Land von den Kinderfickern befreien und verachten Michel Moore’s Propagandastreifen. Übrigens ganz wie die Iraker!

After 25 years of living in a virtual concentration camp, Iranians have become exceedingly socio-politically savvy. Moore’s anti-American propaganda did not attract anywhere near as many viewers as the Mullahs had hoped for. Tehran’s despots had hoped the film would challenge the Iranian people’s favourable notion of President Bush and promote John Kerry.

But Iranians are too smart.

A group of 12 university students, for example, composed of both men and women who had seen the film, collectively wrote me and signed an e-mail which said: “Wow, this guy complains that Bush lied once. What would this windbag do if he lived here where our president lies to us once an hour?”

Another comment was: “This guy gets to publicly accuse Bush of lying and becomes famous and adored worldwide. We, here, complain about some decrepit and inconsequential government lackey and we not only go to prison but some of us get death sentences. He ought to thank his lucky stars he lives in a country where he’s allowed and even encouraged to be this obnoxious…”

Someone else quipped: “If he thinks that the U.S. is so bad, he’s welcome to trade places with us…since he’s so forgiving of brutal Middle Eastern dictators!”

Another young man said: “They are showing this film to erase from our minds the idea of America being the great liberator; maybe Americans themselves don’t appreciate what they have but we sure do!”

Another comment was: “Outside such pathetic ideological schemes, Moore’s fixation to reprimand and castigate his own society is so great that he is BLIND to the fact that our ancient land and society cannot be regarded and dealt with in the same fashion; therefore he has fallen pray to the Mullahs for whom he is nothing more than a tool to discard when his mission for them is completed.”

Sag ich’s doch, solange nicht zuviel extremistischer Islam in den Köpfen der Leute dort ist, sind sie wesentlich schlauer und freundlicher als Europäer die immer noch auf ihrer Welle der Überheblichkeit aus dem 17. Jahrhundert reiten!

Free Iran!
