Larijani Calls Obama a Nigger

I wonder how the politically correct apologists and promoters of the messianic administration in Iran are going to get out of this one. The picture here is that of Mohamad Javad Larijani. One of his brothers is the speaker of Majlis and the other is the head of the Islamic judiciary in Iran.

And this is what this Larijani brother said recently in public:

"When Obama first came to power he talked about engagement with Iran but how is it that now this Kaka Siah [black nigger] is talking about regime change in Iran?'

Kaka Siah is an offensive derogatory word to call a black person in Persian. It is literally equivalent to the offensive word nigger in English. Oh well I am sure Socialist Workers Party and other 'progressive' supporters of the dictatorship in Iran will find a way out, they usually do.

Let's see if the Leftists notice this.

There's no way out other than to acknowledge that this regime's claims of standing up for the oppressed of the world are all pretense. Good fashioned racism is at the heart of its worldview. Hence these comments.

Why would Iranians have a derogatory word for black people? Are there even enough black people in Iran for the bigots there to get upset?

@Hidden Author

Firstly, I don't know how many black people are needed to upset bigots, and that's irrelevant to the issue. Secondly, you should read the history of Iran, you can learn both about the good parts and the bigotry as well.
There was widespread slavery of the Africans among well-off families in Iran during Qajar dynasty. Slavery stopped in Iran in 1929

As if Winston isn't racist. I bet you call him kakah sia too. And yes, we noticed it. But I guess the right-wingers are so complacent in their racist predilections that they didn't even flinch.

Kaveh,

"Firstly, I don't know how many black people are needed to upset bigots..." Lol - good point.

PEace,

When all else fails in Larijani's feeble little mind, he resorts to "Kaka sia". Probably a proxy speaker for his high-leveled relative. I doubt if the Socialist and Communist press will even MENTION this, they're too busy kissing IRI behinds because they really believe that the IRI is the savior of the poor, oppressed people. Maybe they can even have a party after those nine people are executed this week for tweeting and facebooking!
