In a brief but extremely aggressive release the Iranian Foreign Ministry rejected point blank the report from Argentine Prosecutor Alberto Nisman whom they described as “Zionist” and denied all allegations that Tehran has infiltrated nine South American countries to commit terrorist acts.

Disclaimer & comment rulesZionists! Turnips! Reds under the bed! The world is such a dangerous place n'est pas Mahmoud? It's all the fault of that pitiful beard. It's not too late Mahmoud you can always convert to buddhism, lose the beard, renounce beardism and stop losing sleep over being kidnapped by the Mossad. Or those bloody Navy Seals.

Jun 04th, 2013 - 10:07 am - Link - Report abuse 0Tell me, are Iran going to put on a powerpoint presentation somewhere with photos that are wrong, irrelevant or banal to prove their point?
”their negative reactions are always generic and refuse to address the core of the issue”.
Jun 04th, 2013 - 10:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Nisman should have seen this coming as Argentina's government does exactly the same over the Falkland Islands re history/UN Charter.
Why does it surprise you Nisman, that Iran are like this?
He who smelt it, dealt it.
He (almost) makes CFK look sane.

Supreme Leader Cristina - has a nice ring to it. Guardian Council stooges - Timerman Puricelli etc, and a few politicised judicial appointees, for the purpose of selecting Presintential candidates, Maximo, or Maximo.
La Campora = Revolutionary Guard - just need a nice uniform.
One would hope than unlike the UK, Spain, or any nation in Europe which have no morals compared to Iran and have never been friendly to Argentina and do not even see us as human beings, negotiations with Iran can be successful.
Jun 04th, 2013 - 01:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Perhaps if we retired Nisman from his job that would help ease the situation.

@7 You're definitely more stupid than you used to be - all the hate must be liquefying your brain cells. The UK and Argentina used to have a very fruitful relationship until you started allowing nationalistic cretins like Peron to control your country - your fault, not ours. The fact that you have Iran - renowned for their cuddly-fluffy positive ways - as your morality benchmark tells us all we need to know...
Jun 04th, 2013 - 01:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Yes yes yes and Spain used to be our biggest investor, and Italy our biggest cultural friend, and Germany close politically.

We woke up, we realized one cannot be friends with Europe.
When your country is a crumbling kleptomaniac mess ruled by a quasi-dictator and her band of greedy thugs, then I agree - you shouldn't be friends with Europe.

One day Argentina might get a sane leader who will have to repair all the damage done and go around fixing fences and improving relationships with Europe - going to be so disappointed.
Do you see the news?

You've got it the wrong way round. It was Europe that woke up. More and more countries came to realise that argieland is not only corrupt, it's inept. It doesn't keep to agreements, it forgets what it's signed up to, it ignores its debts, the concept of good faith is totally alien, I doubt it's even heard of integrity. And yet it prances around pretending to be some sort of moral leader, when it has no morals.

Jun 04th, 2013 - 03:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Europe is far from disintegrating, 29 of the top 49 richest peoples in the world come from Europe based on GDP per capita.
Interestingly, a further 8 of the top 49 are members of the Commonwealth and thus have excellent trading relationships with the UK.
Others in the top 49 are the USA, Japan, South Korea, Israel, Taiwan again all known to be hugely open to trade, commerce and partnerships with the EU and US.
The remainder of the 49 are made up of 5 oil-rich Middle Eastern States, Qatar, UAE, Saudi, Kuwait and Oman...see a pattern yet?
The last two are Equatorial Guinea and the Seychelles.
So, if you genuinely think the way to enrich your population is to have a closed door policy with the likes of Europe and the US and open door with Venezuala and Iran...go ahead.
The evidence is somewhat compelling the other way..nonetheless..it should be fun to watch!
Not only that: it believes it must “disappear from the face of the Earth” as President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said.
Jun 04th, 2013 - 03:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No, that's not hate filled genocidal thinking, not at all.
Leave it to our pathetic little Poland=Saddam Hussein the 13th to carry water for the country that hangs gays by cranes, murders rape victims, stones women, not to mention baring them from running for president and holding it up as being being something better than anything Europe can offer. And that's the current government Do we REALLY want to go to the wayback machine do we with Persia through the SAVAK to todays Revolutionary mirror-universe humanism that Iranians must suffer through today in yet another fit of whataboutery to cover for your own current government's bad investment in this agreement with Iran (not to mention their other self-inflicted problems)? You really are a sad weak little worm aren't you? Puberty is really getting you down isn't it?
Jun 04th, 2013 - 04:29 pm - Link - Report abuse 0As to the main story, what do we expect. How naive were the people who went into accord with Iran wrt the AMIA. Good luck on agreeing to a Truth commission.
All brainwashed imbeciles here aka turnips (thank you Mr Think, for that great word) who aren't capapble to think nor do homework for themself, just can't see it again that Mercopruts comes with their version of a copy and paste article to make the turnips jump again...(click and bait tactic so that Mercopress makes money..duh)
Jun 04th, 2013 - 04:33 pm - Link - Report abuse 0President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: “Israel must disappear from the face of the Earth”
I don't care at all about Mr Mahmoud ahmadenejad nor about Iran (never been there) but it's okay to be fair not to fall in that trap of disinformation from our lame mainstream corporate media, that continues to lie and lie, for their own agenda. He Never said those words and has been proven many times, thanks to the rising ALTERNATIVE media (listen, read, think for yourself and then take your conclusion). Who does his or her homework, will find out what really has been said and how the so called the most trusted media in the so called developed world spinned it, because they know they have to many idiots that will believe them without question it or doing their own homework (duh, they are fluoride kool-aid drinkers).

Argentina has no mess. Is has the same old problems and everytime it's survived. The same cannot be said of your countries, every time they are tried, they break up.
As for Iran the enemy of my enemy is my friend... don't you people say that oft about being friends with the enemies of Argentina, or about the EU/US/Japan/China/UK/Brazil/Mexico uniting in a trade war against us?
Well, why should it be just reserved for you? Iran is the enemy of Europe and the USA. It's clear which side we should join.
@22
Jun 04th, 2013 - 05:07 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I think you over estimate Argentinas significance, your trade analogy is akin to Barcelona, Boca Juniors, Manchester United and bayern Munich uniting to beat the Mendoza over 65 female second team....Argentina is probably 60-70th on the world scale...they are worth uniting for or against...Iran is a good match.
Religious indoctrination..check
Political indoctrination...check
Insane and corrupt leader...check

Sounds like a marriage made in heaven.
Yet there you are all of you ManU, Barcelona, Bayern crying at the WTO for them to slap Argentina in the wrist.

If you really want the negotiations to succeed Retire Ahmedinejad and Kahmeini it than will have some chance.
Your comment stinks from anti-Semitism. People like you are the real cause for idealistic and religious conflicts.
Can someone explain the Turnip remark, I'm always a bit confused when its used, i've never heard it before I saw it here. Who is a Turnip and why and why a Turnip??

What makes you think that an ostensibly Catholic country such as Argentina could be friends with Iran ? Militant Islam cannot live with any other religious belief.

Jun 04th, 2013 - 07:02 pm - Link - Report abuse 0That's not a trade war you moron. That is a group of people who want to play football pointing out that one team bites, cheats, steals and lies...and perhaps the governing body should do something about it.
Ideally, the team should stop biting, cheating, stealing and lying and join the same game as everyone else plays, in fact, as pointed out above, the fifty bmost successful teams in the world all play by the same rules.
The penalty of continuing to lie, cheat, steal and bite..is simply not to be invited to play, certainly not a trade war (as youve said many times, this is your personal wish) It would be a shame, because the Mendoza over 65 women's second Xi could aspire to being mediocre...of course teaming up in a biting, cheating, lying, stealing league with other nations of a similar ilk is another way...yet not one where the population of those countries have ever prospered.
Have fun with your new friends. We will still be here, all still richer, more prosperous, more healthy, more educated, more industrious than you....when you wake up to yourselves, probably after another Junta or two.

Think's use of the word turnip comes from the Spanish translation which is nabo, this word is also used to describe people of low intellectual worth, rather similar to the village idiot.
In other words turnip is used to describe the mentally challenged. Typically an insult of very bad taste!!!!!!!!
