Yesterday, 25th of December, President of Iran [en:Mahmoud Ahmadinejad] broadcasted from Channel 4 a Christmas Speech for people of UK. Now, I could understand the āsurpriseā of receiving a āclassicalā Christmas Speech from a President of an Islamic and Middle Eastern country, while Queen Elisabeth the II was doing the same (Yes! The British Monarchy has an Official Channel on YouTube!). But, reading the full transcription and watching the video I canāt see where exactly Ahmadinejad was āoffensiveā or expressing his āfanatic anti-semitismā. I mean, we all know what he said during the last years, and how much he would like to send a couple of nuclear bombs on the Israeli army, but there is nothing of that in this message. (By the way, would it be that bad to kick the ass of the IsrAmericans? :-P ) Particular interesting to read is the article from BBC, āAhmadinejad show ācauses offenceāā, where different perspective and comments are reported, mostly from westerns. And the only thing I can see is that no one actually listened of what he said: westerns just assumed that he wants to kill Jews and Christians; while, actually, what he said is quite shareable and agreeable: changing just a couple of words it would easily be the Speech of the Pope!⦠Ehm⦠Mmm⦠Eee⦠Sorry, my mistake: the Pope will never send itās Greetings to Muslims! He will just send some Crusaders! Yes, seriously: itās actually a Positive and Good-Willing message. He just condemned the bullish and expansionisms of āsomeā countries, as something that Jesus will stand against, if he was on earth. Iām not supporting Ahmadinejad here: Iām simply highlighting how much our media (all of them) likes to control our perception of things, sometimes passing down to us just a surrogate (a POISONED SURROGATE) of the news. From my side, I just congratulate Channel 4 for doing this. Brave, Intelligent, Modern, Really Open-minded. Full video and transcript (both in english) follows. ...
Once, in a very weird and dark nightmare, I read this letter from the Pope: My dear Christians, The World is changing and a wave of new corrupted culture is establishing a new, different, atheist moral. Please, donāt join the World in itās changing. Bear in mind that homosexuality is a Sin and an Abomination: Iām sure God is furious much more because of you loving your homosexual partner, than of the fact that you all are polluting the planet. So, please, stop bumping each other. Actually, I think would be way better if you were just raping your own sister! Being in this period of the year, bear in mind to destroy the Pagan beliefs of your kids: Santa Claus doesnāt exists. Only Jesus, with itās collection of miracles, and itās conception on the 8th of December and birth on the 25th of the same month, itās real. Like Adam and Eva. Sincerely, your Cultural and Religious Dictator Pope ...
Sono sceso dallāaereo il 16 Dicembre⦠e da allora sto monitorando, a modo mio, quello che sta succedendo in questo mio paese natio. Crisi Mondiale A sentire le radio e le TV "maggiori", l'[it:Italia] e' una specie di oasi felice in mezzo ad un [it:Europa], un [it:Mondo] in piena crisi Economica e Finanziaria. L'unico sentore della crisi ce lo danno con i commenti (tagliati e riadattati) dei cittadini per strade e centri commericali: Spenderò di meno per regali, li farò solo a parenti e amici stretti⦠ma il panettone/capretto/pandoro/cibo-usanza non mancherĆ Questo rincuora lāItaliano Medio. Gli fa pensare «⦠tutto sommato non va cosƬ maleā¦Ā». E questo diventa il leitmotiv. Poi però mi ricordo che allāaeroporto di [en:Stansted] ho comprato un bel numero speciale dellāEconomist, āThe World in 2009ā, e leggo. Leggo. Leggo. Non ci trovo traccia di ottimismo. Ma di sano āpessimismo riflessivoā. Non ci sono articoli fatalisti. Non ci sono dichiarazioni da fine millennio: solo coscienza che il 2009 non sarĆ un anno facile, e che i Leader di tutti i paesi devono intervenire ORA sulle economie per rallentare il più possibile la Spirale Recessica. ...
I donāt know exactly how to express whatās happening to me. I mean, to be quick, Iād say that āIām doing well with my Careerā. But thatās not my point here; and I donāt think you really care, do you? Plus, itād show how little humble Iām: not really helpful social and friend wise. ;-) ...
