This is true, but I need to ask.....if the bigoted western media won't talk about it, how do you know about it?
Easy -- I just do my homework by reading Eastern websites, especially newspapers or those of commentators. Among them are Juan Cole, MEMRI (Saudi, conservative, + pro-West), and shianews.com.
At times I will look at Al Jazeera but it has an anti-Iran bias which is overlooked by the West. In fact, it was AJ that said Ahmadinejad called for Israel's extermination which he did not actually call for. Professor Juan Cole knows the Farsi language and translated the speech correctly to show that he did not actually make such an inflammatory call.
BBC is generally good but is also anti-Iran. The Guardian reports news from Iran a lot more objectively.
Most Eastern sites are generally anti-Zionist but it would not be entirely fair to say they are all anti-West. Nevertheless, the false impression persists among Westerners but that's because too many of us just don't trouble ourselves to check them out. Thus our prejudicial comments about them do not prove that they are prejudiced - on the contrary, they prove how ignorant and prejudiced we are.
