New Minister of Foreign Affairs


Iran’s President dismissed Dr. Manouchehr Mottaki for reasons not quite yet known to the public and probably will be considered (as always) a 5 to 12 issue by the "Western Press" who will undoubtedly bore the world over with speculations of internal fighting and imminent disintegration of regimes, countries and continents. Furthermore, Ahmadinejad appointed a Dr A.A. Salehi in an acting capacity. Mottaki has been the Foreign Minister of Iran since 24 August 2005. He was the only Minister who was not replaced in Ahmadinejad's Cabinet after Ahmadinejad's reelection. Salehi will be Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs until Ahmadinejad nominates a person to the Iranian Parliament for approval.(has 6 months time )

Dr. A.A.Salehi is an Iranian politician, diplomat and academic and the current acting Minister of foreign affairs (13 December 2010). He is also the Head of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran since 16 July 2009. He was Iranian Representative in the IAEA from 1997 to 2005. He was born on 7 July 1949 in Karbala, Iraq when his family was in Iraq for a religious visit. He has a BSs from the American University of Beirut and a Ph.D from the M.I.T. in Massachusetts, which he earned in 1977. He was also Associate Professor and Chancellor of Sharif University of Technology and a member of the Academy of Science of Iran and the “International centre for Theoretical Physics in Italy”.

The immediate difference that strikes the eye is Dr Salehis eloquence and his far better English , a feature much needed to avoid the necessity for translators that never seem to get the issues properly over and have so far resulted in “Iran not having gays” or worse “Israel to have been wiped off the map”. Both deliberate mistakes committed to scare and trivialize.

Whatever the case here is an interview with “aljazeera” to get an idea.

Anyone is better than Mottaki.
Not offensive enough.

I have a feeling Winston above means "occupied" Iran.
Iran must be doing something right to be having such dedicated enemies in America.

Wikihoax on Iran

Image
Here are some of the supposed leaks on Iran, mixed with some true ones concerning other countries and their heads of states or controversial ministers (of course harmless ones), making it a bit problematic and that much harder for consumers of such information to "not" believe. Always remember,the most talked about issue amongst all heads of states without exception is and has been the mother of all conflicts (namely the Israeli & Palestinian conflict). Yet there is not a single word issued from anywhere or anyone, not even sworn enemies of one or the other states.... If that did not give you a reason to doubt then nothing else shall. When something smells like a fish, swims like a fish, then it must be a fish.This Wikileaks business has been the target of an article by this site (Here) So needless to emphasize anymore about disbelieving the authenticity of the content of wikileaks concerning Iran. Nonetheless, here are the Iran related ones. US Embassy Ottawa (2008) .. T...

A Dangerous Woman !

UK’s Independent wrote , “The leader of Germany’s main right-wing anti-migrant party has caused political uproar by insisting that the country’s border police should be authorised to “ shoot at refugees” trying to enter the country illegally. Frauke Petry , the 40-year-old leader of Germany’s (a mother of four who recently left her pastor husband for a neo-nazi boyfriend) once merely Euro sceptic but now increasingly xenophobic Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, made her controversial demands after addressing a political meeting in Hanover at the weekend. “Police must stop migrants crossing illegally from Austria,” Ms Petry told the Mannheimer Morgen newspaper. “And, if necessary, use firearms. That is what the law says. (actually she is dead wrong on the law issue) ” She added: “I don’t want this either, but the use of armed force is there as a last resort.” Her remarks were the most extreme political response so far by a substantial political figure to mounting publ...

Vaccinating Egypt !

Image
This once cradle of an unparalleled civilization, the land in which its scientists and mathematicians, its thinkers and inventors, used the through generations of incestuous intermarriages, genetically inferior Pharaohs and their manipulability, and made some of the longest-lasting, unique and enigmatic monuments, in the history of mankind. We should also not forget the Egyptian culture, after its Islamisation, which was not of lesser importance. Their Universities and philosophical centres were all magnets for all regional cultures and an inspiration for generations throughout centuries for peoples beyond its borders. Egypt’s ups and downs in history, have been fairly moderate, comparing it to other nations, one seems to get the impression that it all had its use for the Egyptian culture. The only deficit an observer might detect here is their inability to adopt positive and useful cultural features from their so-called cultural invaders, which due to its geo-political situation happ...
