I was trying to make a point Azari.
No, I don't believe MEMRI TV but I also don't believe Press TV.
I have a problem with state owned propaganda whether Iran's or Italy's.
But I will admit that MEMRI is about as shitty as it gets. But MEMRI is not the issue here. The issue is what people inside of Iraq are saying.
I hear your claims about dead Shias in Iraq and I sympathize to a degree.
But my very own experiences tell a different story. It tells a story of both Sunnis and Shias being oppressed under Sunnis and Shias.
It is also a fact that very patriotic Iraqi Shias have become persona non grata in Iraq not under Saddam but under the current Shia leadership specifically because they spoke out against Iranian meddling in Iraq. Even if the Shias are 99% of Iraqis, it does not give Iran the right to meddle in Iraq ,and it is, any more than the Wahhabi garbage are meddling.
And the bombs in Iraq are not killing exclusively Shia. Did you forget about Fallujah? Till this day, there is not a place in Iraq that is worse than that place.
And yes, if it is in Iran's interests to kill a few Arab Shias, I have no doubts that it will. You keep asking me to let go of that silly Arab thing but it is not about Arab this or Persian that. I have learned to transcend that and no one is more critical of Arabs than I am. But, could you let go of your Persian thing?
You are right, they do not want the sheikhs but they do not want the Mullahs either, and that includes Sunni and Shia.
The Fact is that Iraqis DO NOT want Iranian meddling in Iraq but Press TV does not show those protests; why?
Do you deny the heavy presence of Iranian personal in Iraq? Not any different in my view of Saudi presence in Bahrain, or Iraq.
Now I'm far from home
Spending time alone
It's time to set my demons free
Been put to the test
My mind laid to rest
I'm on a psycho holiday
