A Window to the Fatherland

A Window to the Fatherland – Wednesday 4 September 2019

We begin tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland with Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh reading one of his poems from the book of his collected works.

Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:

Ahmadinejad has given an interview and while I was reading it I thought to myself that if one did not know him well you would think he is a saint and a man who has would sacrifice his life in the path of his humanitarian beliefs, the way Zeid the saint did centuries ago.

Zeid was the son of Imam Sajad and wanted to take the revenge of his grandfather’s death but refused to damn the Sunni caliphs and respected them and this led to him being killed by his followers.

Ahmadinejad has said that if it were up to him he would not have signed the nuclear deal. We all know very well that during his eight years in office he and his men including Saeed Jalili were constantly haggling with the international community to reach an agreement over regime’s nuclear program to the point of begging them.

Had Khamenei permitted him, Ahmadinejad would have signed an agreement immediately.

Our guest Mr Alireza Sasanian is here tonight again and would tell us more about this now:

Alireza Sasanian:

If the current so-called fight against corruption in Iran was genuine, the first person to be arrested must have been Ahmadinejad himself.

He is a charlatan and a liar who while mayor of Tehran squandered 341 million dollars and falsely claimed it had gone into the municipality’s projects but in fact had been distributed among his cronies and later spent on his campaign in presidential elections.

The Tehran City Council never investigated this theft simply because they were all involved in this massive corruption.

The same corruption method was rampant in the national broadcasting organization both under Larijani and Zarghami who used to distribute gold coins among the staff to keep them silent about the theft of funds by the senior managers.

Now Rouhani has appointed Mr Monsan as the new minister of tourism and cultural heritage. He is a relative of Rouhani and used to be a senior member of staff during Ghalibaf’s tenure as the mayor of Tehran whose corruption is known to everybody.
