“Kouchner is a Pervert Alcoholic”

Kamangir | September 19, 2007 | Category Iran

One of the habits of the state-run newspaper Kayhan is running the column titled “The Hidden Half”. This column is where the leader-assigned head of Kayhan mixes the information he gets through his tight connection with the intelligence services with pure imagination to bash intellectuals and opposition figures. “To have your hidden half written” is a known term in the contemporary political literature of Iran, meaning “being dissected by Kayhan and nasty things being assigned to you”. Obviously, the person to whom this happens never finds the opportunity to prove that he is not an alcoholic pervert traitor, as Kayhan tends to “find out” about every person they focus on.

Yesterday, it was the French Minister of Foreign Affairs’ turn. After Bernard Kouchner mentioned war with Iran as an option, the ultra-right newspaper “discovered” that his mother is a Jew and that “he has once been expelled from his party”. That “he is famous for rapid changes in his political views”. That “he was once known as a traitor by the communist party”. That “he is known as an American Communist and is famous for a person who spends his time hanging around and drinking Champaign and eating caviar”. That “he is accused of trafficking women and children out of Kosovo [for sex?]“. The piece then continues with claims about Kouchner’s second marriage [Persian].

Hehe, how can he be a Communist (and an American one, at that, which is of course the homeland of Communism) and a rich guy who eats caviar?

Simply absurd.

Yes, we all know Communists never abuse the system to line their own pockets! I heard that he has donated more than any other American to HIV/AIDS research and personally oversees the largest homeless shelter in North America! Too bad he’s a liquor-drinker.

Oh, the heads of the Communist Party abused their position often in the Soviet Union. You can guess how much we loved it. But then, what Communist country does Kouchner lead?

Kouchner used to be a member of the Communist Party, mind. Forty years ago. Until he was expelled from said Party.

And what does Kouchner have to do with America? He’s not American! He’s French!

France, America, same thing.

…you live in a world of your own making, don’t you, Al-Kindi? One build of ignorance and hatred.
