Tonight on NBC: a world exclusive: A Western reporter interviews the Iranian president and actually listens to his answers!

Just look at these happy puppets as they are celebrating the change in Ahmadinejad’s stance. Of course everyone who has ever watched another interview with him (preferrably an unedited one to avoid „misunderstandings„) knows that in this interview he said exactly the same things he’s been saying for years. The only thing that has changed is the tone of the *American* Government. When the US government didn’t want to speak to the Iranian one, no reporter detected any sign of diplomacy in anything Ahmadinejad said. The most pathetic interviewer even went so far as to pass on the insults GW Bush didn’t have the guts to say to Ahmadinejad’s face[1]. Now the US government is ready to have talks with the Iranian one and all of a sudden Brian Williams hears nothing but reconciliation in his interviewee’s words. There’s not one independent thought in his head. Not one. If George Bush accidently praised the Hamas, tomorrow NBC would run a courageous report on the plight of the people in the Gaza strip.
[1] That would be Scott Pelley. When arrogance and ineptness merge as completely as potato and tomato in kufteh berenji. There was so much hot air in his head, I was waiting for him to fly away (and be shot down by the Iranian airforce, preferrably) for 60 excruciating minutes. I quote from the transcript:
PELLEY: I asked President Bush what he would say to you if he were sitting in this chair. And he told me, quote, speaking to you, that you’ve made terrible choices for your people. You’ve isolated your nation. You’ve taken a nation of proud and honorable people and made your country the pariah of the world. These are President Bush’s words to you. What’s your reply to the president?
According to rumors, he also passed on a letter by Bush to Angela Merkel reading:
Do you want to be my grilfriend? Tick off!
[_] Yes
[_] No
[_] Maybe
