Although Hassan Rahimpour Azghadi, a member of Iran’s Supreme Council for Cultural Revolution, made these statements months ago, they were finally translated this week by MEMRI. I am sure the international mainstream media would have been all over it, but they were too busy reporting on Obama’s NCAA picks, and Jay Leno appearance.
It seems that despite the West falling all over itself to find new ways to change, and surrender to Islamists, the Islamists are unimpressed with our peace gestures, and our so-called diplomacy.

The Iranian official’s function is to help export the Islamic Revolution and act against Western influence and feminism.
He stated in one speech, “The corrupt Pope went on a tour in order to cover up the homosexuality of his priests. As you know, he made a tour from America to Australia, saying: ‘We are sorry that our priests are pedophiles and homosexuals.’ … He paid three billion dollars in compensation to families whose little children were abused by priests in churches. But nobody sees what the pope himself does in the Vatican. It’s not clear who should apologize for the pope’s deeds.”
In another speech, he took aim at the U.S., stating its values are “sex, violence and melancholy.” We do not want to coexist with America. We want to combat America – not just America, but Zionism, England, and the leaders of global capitalism, who are exploiting the Muslims and the oppressed throughout the world,” said Azghadi.
He also claimed that the U.S. suffered almost no casualties in World War II because it entered in the final stages, although historians estimate the number of American casualties to have been between 300,000-400,000.
“In the many films about World War II, which you must have seen, the main characters are always American or English, and each of these characters kills 2,000 or 3,000 Germans singlehanded,” he declared. “They produce hundreds or thousands of films about operations that never took place, heroic feats they never accomplished, and sacrifices they never made. They are highly skilled in this.”

It is interesting how similar the complaints of Iranian Islamists (who openly state it is their goal to destroy America, and The West), are to the “progressives” within the West. Can we call them unpatriotic yet, or are the Iranian Islamists hyper-patriotic because of this “dissent”? It is all so confusing.

*UPDATE* (11:10 a.m. pst 3/20/09)
It seems that President Obama hasn’t quite gotten the message about Iran. During his message to Iranians world wide in celebration of Nowruz (Iranian New Year) Obama blindly continues his naive policy of hope over wisdom and gushes at the feet of those who chant “Death to America”.
