An Iranian military official threatened to "wipe" Israel "off the face of the earth" if the Jewish state attacks
As they should. Similarly, if China attacks, they should attempt to wipe China off the map. And if the US attacks, they should attempt to wipe the US off the map.

It is highly unlikely that Iran would be successful at wiping any relevant country off the map (including Israel), but that doesn't mean that they should just sit and take it if they get into a war.

Though i do not contest his views I wish Iranians were a little more Diplomatic in stating their stances ,

Such an Hostile attitude makes it difficult for countries such as India or Brazil to stand openly in Tehran's Support especially in

the wake of current Syrian crisis.
Iran Syria are correct. USA and especially UK should stop poking their dirty noses into other peoples business.

ManMohan Singh's complete refrain from giving voice to India's stand in regards to United Nations is not in India's interest .
especially when India's has for long sought a UNSC seat.
India will never get a UNSC seat when there is still UK, France and Germany represented in it.

UNSC was set up to promote western imperialist agenda. India will not figure in their plan.

Not surprising. Arab spring is nothing but an engineered uprising. The poodle on the throne has to promote US foreign policy.
I am not sure if Saudi and American foreign policy necessarily converge.
Saudia funded most of these uprisings.

NAM Summit done, PM leaves Tehran for home



Tehran: Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh left for home this morning after a four-day visit to Tehran during which he attended the 16h summit meeting of the Non-Aligned Movement and held bilateral meetings with the presidents of Iran and Pakistan.

At the meeting with Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari Thursday evening, Manmohan Singh said that expeditiously concluding the trial of the perpetrators of the 26/11 Mumbai attack would be the biggest confidence building measure (CBM) between the two neighbours.

Zardari responded that he would like to do so but had run into a legal roadblock.

Both sides pledged to take steps to take the issue forward.

Addressing the NAM summit earlier Thursday, Manmohan Singh admitted to deficits in global governance and called on the movement to "take the lead" in reforming international institutions like the UN, even as he urged member states to tackle problems by "developing solutions that are best suited to our own circumstances".

Manmohan Singh also held bilateral meetings with the leaders of Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Syria.

no offense to my Indian friends but Nam is a talk show
in every Nam meeting there are 120 kings presidents and despots (rules of the 3 world ) pretending to care about each other or the rest of the world
trying to forget there slavery to foreign aid , IMF loans , foreign bases ,est est
Israel has more freedom of action then any off the Nam states except India despite beaning aligned

We are not Americans. We are free citizens of India. So please try to brainwash someone else.

Sir,

Your lot has undertaken many more savage expeditions.

Let me start by teaching you, your history;

1. Native Americans

In his book American Holocaust, the US scholar David Stannard documents the greatest acts of genocide the world has ever experienced. In 1492, some 100m native peoples lived in the Americas. By the end of the 19th Century almost all of them had been exterminated. Many died as a result of disease. But the mass extinction was also engineered. In California during the 18th Century the Spanish systematised this extermination. A Franciscan missionary called Junipero Serra set up a series of "missions": in reality concentration camps using slave labour. The native people were herded in under force of arms and made to work in the fields on one fifth of the calories fed to African-American slaves in the 19th century. They died from overwork, starvation and disease at astonishing rates, and were continually replaced, wiping out the indigenous populations. Junipero Serra, the Eichmann of California, was beatified by the Vatican in 1988. He now requires one more miracle to be pronounced a saint. The British who colonised North America wanted land. In New England they surrounded the villages of the native Americans and murdered them as they slept. As genocide spread westwards, it was endorsed at the highest levels. George Washington ordered the total destruction of the homes and land of the Iroquois. Thomas Jefferson declared that his nation's wars with the Indians should be pursued until each tribe "is exterminated or is driven beyond the Mississippi". During the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864, troops in Colorado slaughtered unarmed people gathered under a flag of peace, killing children and babies, mutilating all the corpses and keeping their victims' genitals to use as tobacco pouches or to wear on their hats. Theodore Roosevelt called this event 'as rightful and beneficial a deed as ever took place on the frontier.'

2. Vietnam
From 1961 to 1970 more than 20,000 missions that composed Operations "Trail Dust" and "Ranch Hand" dispersed about 13 million gallons of chemicals over five million acres of Vietnam's forests and agricultural lands; southern Laos and Cambodia were sprayed too. To the American military mind, defoliating was a practical solution that disallowed cover to the enemy. To the corporate mind – Dow, Monsanto, Hercules, Uniroyal, Diamond Shamrock, Syntex Agribusiness, and more than two dozen others – manufacturing chemicals provided good ROI: one gallon of liquid cost $7 back then. Moreover, corporations sped up the 2,4,5T manufacturing process so they could produce more, faster. They ignored the partially catalyzed molecule, dioxin, that was a byproduct of the faster process; it remained in Agent Orange (AO). Vietnam's dense southern uplands' forests were sprayed with a range of chemicals signified by color-coded barrels: Agents Blue, Orange, White, Pink, Purple and so on. Areas that the C-123 "Provider" airplanes didn't reach – equal to the size of Rhode Island — were bulldozed with Rome Plows. Today people in vietnam are suffering with conditions ranging from Acute and Subacute Peripheral Neuropathy,AL Amyloidosis, Chloracne (or Similar Acneform Disease), Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (now expanded to B Cell Leukemias), Diabetes Mellitus (Type 2), Hodgkin's Disease, Ischemic Heart Disease, Multiple Myeloma, Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Parkinson's Disease, Porphyria Cutanea Tarda, Prostate Cancer, Respiratory Cancers (of the lung, larynx, trachea, and bronchus), and Soft Tissue Sarcoma. None of these diseases have 100 (ONE HUNDRED PERCENT)% Cure.

3. Phillipines
Americans were responsible for setting up 'reconcentrados' which were nothing but concentration camps. People were told to get everything that they could get including clothes, animals etc and all very concentrated into 1 place. A population living in a 50 square mile area was concentrated into 2 square mile area including their goods and animals. Anyone who was found outside the camp was SHOT.

4. Japan
The infamous Hiroshima Nagasaki atom bombing aside, the US soldiers killed almost all POW who surrendered. Niall Ferguson has documented it that 100 POWs died for every 1 who lived.

5. Yugoslavia
From Wikipedia- The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia reviewed these events, including Human Rights Watch's report, as well as that alleged by the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. It concluded "either the law is not sufficiently clear or investigations are unlikely to result in the acquisition of sufficient evidence."

Lets not forget western assistance to paki genocide in bangladesh!

Even the yank ambassador was appaled at his govt

Our government has failed to denounce the suppression of democracy. Our government has failed to denounce atrocities. Our government has failed to take forceful measures to protect its citizens while at the same time bending over backwards to placate the West Pak[istan] dominated government and to lessen any deservedly negative international public relations impact against them. Our government has evidenced what many will consider moral bankruptcy,(...) But we have chosen not to intervene, even morally, on the grounds that the Awami conflict, in which unfortunately the overworked term genocide is applicable, is purely an internal matter of a sovereign state. Private Americans have expressed disgust. We, as professional civil servants, express our dissent with current policy and fervently hope that our true and lasting interests here can be defined and our policies redirected.

When the "third world" starts making "choices" instead of having a "live and let live" attitude your country might be at the receiving end.

Even nazis made mistakes and had to make choices so why hammer that down everyone's throat around the world to gain sympathy ?

:hmm:
