Ahmadinejad demands UN sanctions against Germany

Iranian president Ahmadinejad has accused the german governement of brutality, corruption and islamophobia, following the killing of an egyptian woman in a Dresden court room and demanded UN sanctions against Berlin.
The case has indeed caused anti- german protest in several muslim countries and makes security services worry about "retaliation" attempts against german facilities ot citizens..........

Re: Ahmadinejad demands UN sanctions against Germany

Ahmadinejad is rapidly becoming the new George Bush.

The guy stabbed the woman 18 times in a COURTROOM? And the cop injured her HUSBAND? Great German Security guys, Bismarck would be proud.

Aha: Ahmadinedschad clowns not anymore the Holocaust denier. The idiot who killed the egyptian lady in Dresden was a Nazi, dear clown Ahmadinedschad. Anyhow: every Muslim of Germany is allowed to travel in the Iran and to live under the protection of Ahmadinedschad. But I don't think a lot of Muslims will do so.

Re: Ahmadinejad demands UN sanctions against Germany

I had to hand over the Swiss Army knife I carry everywhere when I went into court for jury duty.

And that wasn't exactly in a big city with a lot of creeps.

Re: Ahmadinejad demands UN sanctions against Germany

I love it when this guy makes ridiculous demands like that. Everytime he opens his mouth he further demonstrates to the world how bat-shit insane he is.

The point was that this was actually a minor trial with a money penalty to be expected and Germans are generally not that used to carry weapons around or expect others to do it. But still this a major scandal ( especially the policeman shooting the husband) and as a result a family has been destroyed and a little boy lost his mother.
The accusations by the iranian president are still hilarious though, but that was clear before he opened his mouth.

Re: Ahmadinejad demands UN sanctions against Germany

Like almost anything Ahmadinejad says, it is meant for domestic consumption. In fact, this is like most politicians anywhere.

Even with metal detectors, we still get courtroom shootings here in the US every now and then. So, it's a bit unfair pointing a finger.

Ahmandinejad never denied the Holocaust, but questioned parts of it.
And parts of it are wrong, while other parts so horrendous that they should be hard to believe.

Wrong reaction.
Carried away or not, the expression of emotion by Ahmadinejad is not only understandble, but even required to a degree.
Claiming this reflects negatively on Ahmadinejad, only makes him look more correct.
The correct response is sympath.
That is the only one that is appropriate and difuses rather than inflames.

Exactly.
It is to be expected, and is not that unreasonable of a starting point, to get some attention to a real problem.
