In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

O, Almighty God, bestow upon humanity the perfect human being promised to all by You, and make us among his followers.

Noble Americans,

Were we not faced with the activities of the US administration in this part of the world and the negative ramifications of those activities on the daily lives of our peoples, coupled with the many wars and calamities caused by the US administration as well as the tragic consequences of US interference in other countries;

Were the American people not God-fearing, truth-loving, and justice-seeking, while the US administration actively conceals the truth and impedes any objective portrayal of current realities;

And if we did not share a common responsibility to promote and protect freedom and human dignity and integrity;

Then, there would have been little urgency to have a dialogue with you.

While Divine providence has placed Iran and the United States geographically far apart, we should be cognizant that human values and our common human spirit, which proclaim the dignity and exalted worth of all human beings, have brought our two great nations of Iran and the United States closer together.

Both our nations are God-fearing, truth-loving and justice-seeking, and both seek dignity, respect and perfection.

Both greatly value and readily embrace the promotion of human ideals such as compassion, empathy, respect for the rights of human beings, securing justice and equity, and defending the innocent and the weak against oppressors and bullies.

We are all inclined towards the good, and towards extending a helping hand to one another, particularly to those in need.

We all deplore injustice, the trampling of peoples' rights and the intimidation and humiliation of human beings.

We all detest darkness, deceit, lies and distortion, and seek and admire salvation, enlightenment, sincerity and honesty.

The pure human essence of the two great nations of Iran and the United States testify to the veracity of these statements.

Noble Americans,

Our nation has always extended its hand of friendship to all other nations of the world.

Hundreds of thousands of my Iranian compatriots are living amongst you in friendship and peace, and are contributing positively to your society. Our people have been in contact with you over the past many years and have maintained these contacts despite the unnecessary restrictions of US authorities.

As mentioned, we have common concerns, face similar challenges, and are pained by the sufferings and afflictions in the world.

We, like you, are aggrieved by the ever-worsening pain and misery of the Palestinian people. Persistent aggressions by the Zionists are making life more and more difficult for the rightful owners of the land of Palestine. In broad day-light, in front of cameras and before the eyes of the world, they are bombarding innocent defenseless civilians, bulldozing houses, firing machine guns at students in the streets and alleys, and subjecting their families to endless grief.

No day goes by without a new crime.

Palestinian mothers, just like Iranian and American mothers, love their children, and are painfully bereaved by the imprisonment, wounding and murder of their children. What mother wouldn't?

For 60 years, the Zionist regime has driven millions of the inhabitants of Palestine out of their homes. Many of these refugees have died in the Diaspora and in refugee camps. Their children have spent their youth in these camps and are aging while still in the hope of returning to homeland.

You know well that the US administration has persistently provided blind and blanket support to the Zionist regime, has emboldened it to continue its crimes, and has prevented the UN Security Council from condemning it.

Who can deny such broken promises and grave injustices towards humanity by the US administration?

Governments are there to serve their own people. No people wants to side with or support any oppressors. But regrettably, the US administration disregards even its own public opinion and remains in the forefront of supporting the trampling of the rights of the Palestinian people.

Let's take a look at Iraq. Since the commencement of the US military presence in Iraq, hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have been killed, maimed or displaced. Terrorism in Iraq has grown exponentially. With the presence of the US military in Iraq, nothing has been done to rebuild the ruins, to restore the infrastructure or to alleviate poverty. The US Government used the pretext of the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but later it became clear that that was just a lie and a deception.

Although Saddam was overthrown and people are happy about his departure, the pain and suffering of the Iraqi people has persisted and has even been aggravated.

In Iraq, about one hundred and fifty thousand American soldiers, separated from their families and loved ones, are operating under the command of the current US administration. A substantial number of them have been killed or wounded and their presence in Iraq has tarnished the image of the American people and government.

Their mothers and relatives have, on numerous occasions, displayed their discontent with the presence of their sons and daughters in a land thousands of miles away from US shores. American soldiers often wonder why they have been sent to Iraq.

I consider it extremely unlikely that you, the American people, consent to the billions of dollars of annual expenditure from your treasury for this military misadventure.

Noble Americans,

You have heard that the US administration is kidnapping its presumed opponents from across the globe and arbitrarily holding them without trial or any international supervision in horrendous prisons that it has established in various parts of the world. God knows who these detainees actually are, and what terrible fate awaits them.

You have certainly heard the sad stories of the Guantanamo and Abu-Ghraib prisons. The US administration attempts to justify them through its proclaimed "war on terror." But every one knows that such behavior, in fact, offends global public opinion, exacerbates resentment and thereby spreads terrorism, and tarnishes the US image and its credibility among nations.

The US administration's illegal and immoral behavior is not even confined to outside its borders. You are witnessing daily that under the pretext of "the war on terror," civil liberties in the United States are being increasingly curtailed. Even the privacy of individuals is fast losing its meaning. Judicial due process and fundamental rights are trampled upon. Private phones are tapped, suspects are arbitrarily arrested, sometimes beaten in the streets, or even shot to death.

I have no doubt that the American people do not approve of this behavior and indeed deplore it.

The US administration does not accept accountability before any organization, institution or council. The US administration has undermined the credibility of international organizations, particularly the United Nations and its Security Council. But, I do not intend to address all the challenges and calamities in this message.

The legitimacy, power and influence of a government do not emanate from its arsenals of tanks, fighter aircrafts, missiles or nuclear weapons. Legitimacy and influence reside in sound logic, quest for justice and compassion and empathy for all humanity. The global position of the United States is in all probability weakened because the administration has continued to resort to force, to conceal the truth, and to mislead the American people about its policies and practices.

Undoubtedly, the American people are not satisfied with this behavior and they showed their discontent in the recent elections. I hope that in the wake of the mid-term elections, the administration of President Bush will have heard and will heed the message of the American people.

My questions are the following:

Is there not a better approach to governance?

Is it not possible to put wealth and power in the service of peace, stability, prosperity and the happiness of all peoples through a commitment to justice and respect for the rights of all nations, instead of aggression and war?

We all condemn terrorism, because its victims are the innocent.

But, can terrorism be contained and eradicated through war, destruction and the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocents?

If that were possible, then why has the problem not been resolved?

The sad experience of invading Iraq is before us all.

What has blind support for the Zionists by the US administration brought for the American people? It is regrettable that for the US administration, the interests of these occupiers supersedes the interests of the American people and of the other nations of the world.

What have the Zionists done for the American people that the US administration considers itself obliged to blindly support these infamous aggressors? Is it not because they have imposed themselves on a substantial portion of the banking, financial, cultural and media sectors?

I recommend that in a demonstration of respect for the American people and for humanity, the right of Palestinians to live in their own homeland should be recognized so that millions of Palestinian refugees can return to their homes and the future of all of Palestine and its form of government be determined in a referendum. This will benefit everyone.

Now that Iraq has a Constitution and an independent Assembly and Government, would it not be more beneficial to bring the US officers and soldiers home, and to spend the astronomical US military expenditures in Iraq for the welfare and prosperity of the American people? As you know very well, many victims of Katrina continue to suffer, and countless Americans continue to live in poverty and homelessness.

I'd also like to say a word to the winners of the recent elections in the US:

The United States has had many administrations; some who have left a positive legacy, and others that are neither remembered fondly by the American people nor by other nations.

Now that you control an important branch of the US Government, you will also be held to account by the people and by history.

If the US Government meets the current domestic and external challenges with an approach based on truth and Justice, it can remedy some of the past afflictions and alleviate some of the global resentment and hatred of America. But if the approach remains the same, it would not be unexpected that the American people would similarly reject the new electoral winners, although the recent elections, rather than reflecting a victory, in reality point to the failure of the current administration's policies. These issues had been extensively dealt with in my letter to President Bush earlier this year.

To sum up:

It is possible to govern based on an approach that is distinctly different from one of coercion, force and injustice.

It is possible to sincerely serve and promote common human values, and honesty and compassion.

It is possible to provide welfare and prosperity without tension, threats, imposition or war.

It is possible to lead the world towards the aspired perfection by adhering to unity, monotheism, morality and spirituality and drawing upon the teachings of the Divine Prophets.

Then, the American people, who are God-fearing and followers of Divine religions, will overcome every difficulty.

What I stated represents some of my anxieties and concerns.

I am confident that you, the American people, will play an instrumental role in the establishment of justice and spirituality throughout the world. The promises of the Almighty and His prophets will certainly be realized, Justice and Truth will prevail and all nations will live a true life in a climate replete with love, compassion and fraternity.

The US governing establishment, the authorities and the powerful should not choose irreversible paths. As all prophets have taught us, injustice and transgression will eventually bring about decline and demise. Today, the path of return to faith and spirituality is open and unimpeded.

We should all heed the Divine Word of the Holy Qur'an:

"But those who repent, have faith and do good may receive Salvation. Your Lord, alone, creates and chooses as He will, and others have no part in His choice; Glorified is God and Exalted above any partners they ascribe to Him." (28:67-68)

I pray to the Almighty to bless the Iranian and American nations and indeed all nations of the world with dignity and success.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
President of the Islamic Republic of Iran
29 November 2006

While this letter presents a strong case for the separation of church and state, it also makes me nostalgic for the days when we had an articulate and intelligent leader.

A leader suggesting that we heed the Divine Word of the Holy Bible is just as disturbing to me.

Hence my argument for Separation of Church and State.

Religion should have no place in Government.

We all have a little dirt, that was the point Jesus tought in it's essence.

If everyone stopped killing eachother in the middle east, perhaps the show could get on the road & humanity can get to work. WE all have more important things to do and so does that entire continent. They are wasting their precious time as a civilization with the continued fighting and unresolved issues. It's getting old and boring. War is boring. It's stupidity in the simplist of terms. It's the lack of understanding and lack of education that has caused this whole mess.

I have no disagreements with the facts that religion and politics should not inter twine. This Muslime nut job is the perfect example of why religion should not fuel and control the supreme leader of any nation.

He is the reason the extremist Muslim leaders need to be kept in check because they do not rule with logic and an open mind they simply rule by the words of a psuedo prophet who wrote a very violent and disturbing piece of literature called the Quaran.

This Iranian maniac clearly wants the entire world to "heed the Divine word....." No thank you, Mr. Throat Slitter.

We have made it very clear the Muslim people are not welcomed in Nederland. We do our best to keep these violent, untolerant, and savage people from our great land. Thus far the restrictions have worked wonderfuly. The message has been sent and is clear.

I make no claims of intolerance. Who should be tolerant of a religious group that slits throats? Who should be tolerant of a religious group that murders women who get raped? Are you tolerant of madness? No religious madness should be tolerated.

No society should tolerate a race and religion of maniacs who opress women, indiscrimanately murder innocent people, and enforce their religious ideologies on other people.

Bomb attack on school as Dutch racists target Islam
By Anthony Browne

AN ISLAMIC primary school in Eindhoven has been damaged by a bomb, while at least three mosques have been targeted by arson attacks. Others have been plastered with paint or anti-Islamic slogans. Police protection has been stepped up outside Islamic centres.

The Muslim community in the Netherlands is suffering a wave of attacks against its institutions after the murder in Amsterdam of the film-maker Theo van Gogh, whose work was critical of Islamic treatment of women.

The Tarieq Ibnu Zyad Islamic school, in the southern town of Eindhoven, had its front door blown off and sustained extensive damage after a bomb attack in the early hours of the morning. Debris was scattered around the neighbourhood, but no one was injured.

The school is run by alFourqaan Islamic Centre, which has been under observation by Dutch Intelligence after it was reported to have links to the September 11 hijackers, including Mohammed Atta, their leader.

Alexander Sakkers, Mayor of Eindhoven, said: “Residents of the area are shocked. We have to do everything possible to keep the community united. One person who pulls off such an idiotic act should not affect Dutch society.”

Also over the weekend, a social centre that helps Muslim immigrants in Amsterdam was daubed with red paint and mosques in Rotterdam, Groningen and Breda were damaged by arsonists, although none seriously.

In Huizen, police arrested two men who were said to be preparing to start a fire at a mosque on Friday night. A pig’s head was dumped outside a mosque in Amsterdam, while pamphlets insulting Islam and showing pictures of pigs’ heads were plastered on a mosque in Rotterdam.

Mr van Gogh, the great-great-grandnephew of the painter Vincent van Gogh, was shot six times and nearly decapitated with a butcher’s knife in central Amsterdam last week in what the media has described as a “ritual killing.” A five-page note of Koranic texts was pinned to his chest declaring jihad against infidels and the West.

Johan Remkes, the Dutch Interior Minister, said that the killing should not be blamed on the Muslim community.

Ten young Muslims have been arrested in connection with the killing, including Mohammed Bouyeri, a 26-year-old with dual Dutch-Moroccan nationality. He has been charged with the murder under anti-terrorism laws, making it the first official terrorist attack in the country in recent times.

Since Mr van Gogh’s murder, a number of politicians seen as being “enemies of Islam” have been issued with death threats. Two have been taken to safe houses, including Geert Wilders, the maverick right-wing MP, who was the subject of a video circulating on the internet offering paradise for anyone who beheaded him.

The Netherlands has almost a million Muslims, nearly 6 per cent of its population of 16 million. A recent poll showed that 47 per cent of non-Muslims said that they felt less tolerant of Muslims since Mr van Gogh’s murder. Last week more than two dozen demonstrators were arrested for shouting anti-Islamic abuse, while the books of condolences for Mr van Gogh had to be shut after they became deluged with anti-Muslim sentiment.

The Government declared a “war on radical Islam”, threatening to deport those suspected of extremist links. Belgium, where Mr van Gogh was also a household name, said yesterday that it would strengthen its anti-terror laws by allowing authorities to shut down anti-Semitic or anti-Western websites run by radical Muslim groups and to block extremist views aired on Arab community radio stations.

Mr van Gogh’s funeral is to be held this evening in Amsterdam, in a public service broadcast on screens in a park.

So far as I can tell, that will sit very well with a lot of people that have even less desire for you to visit.

You need to learn a few things and you might start with the view other than in your mirror.

While we're at it, I think we should round up all of the Amish people and contain them in those concentration camps the government is building for us. See, I believe this "no technology" philosophy of theirs is really just a ruse. Belive me, they have underground bunkers with nukes stored in them and one day, they're gonna fly and then the survivors will all be under a new order of barbaric Amish rule.

...mean while back at the ranch, the boys and girls in Texas, California, New Mexico and Arizona are watching TV while people in tunnels sneek into the United States underneath. So while it's fun to pick on the Dutch and the Swiss and the Germans and the Irish and the English and the Pakistani and the Greek and the Japanese and the Chinese and the Russian and the Korean and the Australian and the Philipino and the African and the Hungarian and the Iranian and the Israeli and the Syrian and the Cuban... we might want to begin with the most immediate concern. While our government is so concerned with matters abroad, it fails to have it's priorities in order. If the neighbors to our south can sneek over with what ever they want then it serves to reason the individuals abroad can bring in more harmful and potentially deadly materials using the same method.... now put that in your pipe and smoke it!

Hey I have a bunch of Mexican and Apache Indian family, even if they are my relation thru marriage, my aunt of 42 years is 1/2 Mex and 1/2 Apache and is a corporate executive in a division within CBS.. So I have no problem with latino's what so ever, one of my dearest friends www.orlandoab.com a winner of the White House; Hispanic Heritage Awards for the visual arts awarded by President Reagan in 1989, the year I began to work as the artifact inventory manager for the galleries that represent his works, we were a staff comprised almost totally of hispanics from all over Mexico and South America, we guided each of our employees thru the imigration process and their lives are much better and in order because of it. This has nothing to do with my point, which pertains to smuggling and WMD's thru that method, that is the concern. Perhaps my affiliations with Hm Ld Sec. make me more aware of what is possible. Therefore I support my opinions with facts on the matter and as a Soverign American and Voter, I questions my governments priorities, I am in California and we are slammed from San Diego up thru Sacremento, if you haven't drivin around this part of the country, you wouldn't beleive it. Its over crowded to say the least and we're growing above 3% a year...

I didn't speak of your consideration of WMDs and didn't mean my post to be a put down of yours.

(Though, in all honesty, I must say it is a stretch to believe WMDS are or will be secreted over our southern borders.)

I share your worries about over population in this land, as I live in Texas, which grows at an even faster rate thaan California.
