United Nations: General Assembly 2010 Edition







Again world leaders are gathering together in New York for another round of meetings and joint committees. The reason for gathering is to improve cooperation spirit and to expand world leadership from a few superpowers to majority of international community. The fact may not matter about United Nations and its effect on peace, but the speeches and reactions is really matter for every one of us.
Some of famous and controversial participators are president Obama   , president sarkozy , and of course a real big fish president Ahmadinejad.
Beside the first two, the third always was trying to be different from the others .today I review and summarize his agenda, proposals, and of course disputable charges from two point of view his fans and critics.
Needless to say, there is a kind of misunderstanding about role of president Ahmadinejad in Iran, in which sometimes people misinterpret Iranian president as Iran's leader which is not true. According to Iran's constitution, commander in chief, supervisor and coordinator of Islamic republic's policy is the supreme leader (of the revolution) and president is the head of cabinet (like prime minister in France).
As always president Ahmadinejad accused western countries of trampling weaker countries rights especially Palestinians, and defended Iran's uranium enrichment and nuclear programs. He addressed other countries delegations and encouraged them to stand against unilateral and biased system and approach of international agencies like UNSC and IAEA.  
On the one hand critics saying he didn't spent his speech time for clarifying Iranian's rights and policy as much as he talked about Israel or other countries like Palestinian territory since he is not the real representative of Iranians and doesn't care about their prosperity, and they referring to  2009 disputable election and nationwide objections, but on the other hand his supporters and proponents believe he had enough guts to challenge superpowers and defend downtrodden nations rights, they justifying charges he pressed on western countries like US as the clandestine truth behind a bunch of lies .
One of president Ahmadinejad's newest accusation was his remarks about 9/11 terrorist attack on New York world trade centers in which he claimed most people in the world believe that the United States was behind the Sept. 11, 2001 terror, "The time has come to establish a fact finding committee to shed light on doubts" he said, that it simultaneously was faced by European countries walkout and US denunciation and condemnation
People are asking questions why in this time when four sets of comprehensive sanctions were imposed on Iran, and Iranians are suffering from lack of international banking and modern industrial equipments and spares, he made such anxious statements like back when he said holocaust should be scrutinize.
Critics believe such incendiary statements are diversions from horrendous pressures and problems that his government currently is facing from international community and domestic contradictions, by those statements he wants to delude public opinions from fierce vulnerability of his government.  But supporters are stressing western countries should be given a dose of their own medicine, scandal.For example some of his statements are:
President Ahmadidinejad compared execution of Teresa Lewis (Virginia retarded criminal) to stoning of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani (charged with secret affairs and participating in murder).
He analogized contradictions with founding of Islamic center near Ground zero to ethnic and religious discrimination.
He was corresponding sanctions with illegal and unfair resolutions.
He also claimed that Iran has the most democratic regime around the world and no one is in prison because of political contradictions.
In respond to those allegations specially 9/11 claim,President Barack Obama said "Well, it was offensive. It was hateful."  
Whatever what the truth is or who is telling the truth (which conclusion about those is up to you and your knowledge about politic tricks), circumstances didn't get better and conflicts between Iran and superpowers keep on; and again United Nation failed to keep the peace.
