I am writing this to respond to
Mahan Abbasi's letter on Iran's
Nuclear Program. I would first like to say to Mahan Abbasi that the
article on halting Iran's nuclear program is not written to attack the
people of
Iran,
but its leaders that have taken it astray. Your president denies that
Holocaust ever occurred, which is an insult to the 7 million people that
were brutally murdered by Nazis. Iran completely disregards the Universal
Declaration of Human Rights, and openly pursues nuclear weapons with the
goal to "wipe Israel
off the map." Does Israel or America say such things? They do not. Iran
is also the world’s leader in child executions. Iran
also restricts its country's press. Yes, both our countries have horrible
relations with each other, but the people of our two countries can be
friends, no matter what religion, race, or ethnicity.
