I like Ahmadinejad... I got respect for the man.
Gambia visit heralds new day in ties with Africa: Iranian president
Tehran Times Political Desk
TEHRAN -- Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad has called his recent visit to Gambia the beginning of the promotion of Iran’s cooperation with African countries, especially in the area of foreign policy.
Speaking upon arrival in Tehran on Sunday after a three-day visit to the Gambian capital Banjul, where he participated in the seventh African Union Summit, Ahmadinejad said that he traveled to the West African country to discuss bilateral ties and to follow up agreements previously signed by the two countries.
“Investment opportunities in Gambia are great, and this country can become the hub for cooperation between Iranian and African investors and traders,” he observed.
In addition, African heads of state that he met at the AU Summit expressed interest in boosting ties with Iran, he noted.
He also called upon Iranian investors to use the potential of the African continent to step up economic relations.
Commenting on his meeting with United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan on Saturday, Ahmadinejad said that he asked Annan to speak out about the recent Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip and to address the issue as quickly as possible.
Global “bullies” angered by other countries’ development: Ahmadinejad
Global “bullies” are angered by the scientific and technological developments of other countries and seek to keep countries and nations backward, the president said on Saturday in Gambia.
“But the so-called major powers are breaking apart. The time of superpowers is over and undoubtedly great victories await nations,” he told a session of the AU summit in Banjul.
Some of the global challenges are poverty, lack of development, wars, diseases, corruption, drugs, injustice, anti-theism, the eradication of indigenous cultures and values, and the creation of insecurity, which are mostly consequences of the major powers’ actions, he noted.
The root causes of these problems are the hegemonic and bullying policies of certain powers, the creation of crises, inefficiency of the United Nations, the persistence of the attitudes of the slavery era, and threats, he added.
“Some governments allow themselves to realize their illegitimate interests by using economic and political pressure, creating insecurity and division between ethnic groups and people, and taking advantage of propaganda,” he said.
Just as the former colonialists, slave masters, and bullies did not survive, the current bullies will also not survive in the future, he pointed out. Ahmadinejad said that Iran’s foreign policy prioritizes the promotion of cooperation with African countries, adding, “The Islamic Republic is prepared to share its experiences in various spheres, especially in the areas of electricity, agriculture, information technology, industry, and mining, with African countries.”

That's how your argument sounds. ...ridiculous. Stay focused, the LAND was taken over by displaced Jews from Europe. They do not have a right to that LAND.
