[IT IS RECOMMENDED TO ALSO READ THE POWERPOINT PRESENTATION WITH SAME DATE]

“The Grecians and Romans were strongly possessed of the spirit of liberty but not the
principle, for at the time that they were determined not to be slaves themselves, they
employed their power to enslave the rest of mankind. But this distinguished era is
blotted by no one misanthropical vice. In short, if the principle on which the cause is
founded, the universal blessings that are to arise from it, the difficulties that
accompanied it, the wisdom with which it has been debated, the fortitude by which it
has been supported, the strength of the power which we had to oppose, and the
condition in which we undertook it, be all taken in one view, we may justly style it the
most virtuous and illustrious revolution that ever graced the history of mankind.
A good opinion of ourselves is exceedingly necessary in private life, but absolutely
necessary in public life, and of the utmost importance in supporting national
character. I have no notion of yielding the palm of the United States to any Grecians
or Romans that were ever born. We have equalled the bravest in times of danger, and
excelled the wisest in construction of civil governments.” – Thomas Paine, Volume I, To The
Inhabitants of America

US seeks to snub Global South in NY

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad


Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's decision to attend the upcoming non-proliferation conference
in New York has prompted the US to take measures to counter the move.  [CHESS]

On Monday, which is the opening [CHESS TERM] day of the conference to review the Nuclear Non-
Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Ahmadinejad is scheduled to speak third [MOVE] after the opening remarks
[INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO PRO IRANIAN ELEMENTS IN NEW YORK] by UN Secretary General Ban
Ki-moon [NAME IS NOT IMPORTANT WHEN IT COMES TO PRO IRANIAN ELEMENTS IN THE GIVEN
PRESS TV TEXT] and a Non-Aligned Movement representative [IRAN SEEMS TO BE OFFICIALY
KEEPING THE STATUS OF A NON ALIGNED COUNTRY]. 

Representatives [A TERM RELATED TO THE US REPUBLIC] from over 180 count[r]ies will be attending
the gathering, which is being held at the UN Headquarters in New York [THE TEACHER GIVING
LESSONS OF CONTROL EN MASS]. 

US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will speak at the gathering Monday afternoon. She will be
the highest-ranking US diplomat to attend the talks in 10 years. [THE PRESS TV TEXT DOES NOT

TO THE PUBLIC EYE WHEN IT COMES TO GEOPOLITICS. NEW YORK IS MRS. CLINTON’S HOME
WHILE MR. AHMADINEJAD IS THE ONE WHO IS MAKING THE ‘LONG MOVE’] 

Pundits say the decision to have Clinton participate in the conference was made to prevent the event from
becoming a forum for countries of the Global South that are opposed to the calls to impose a new round
of UN sanctions on Iran. [IRAN SEEMS TO BE LOOKING IN CREATING TENSIONS BETWEEN SOUTH
AND NORTH HEMISPHERE COUNTRIES. AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND ARE WESTERN
NATIONS LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC OCEAN]

According to a report in the April 28 edition of The New York Times, the United States and its allies want
[WORD USED AGGRESSIVELY] to avoid [AGGRESSIVENESS BECOMES FEAR] negotiating Iran
sanctions [PRESS TV SEEMS TO BE LOOKING IN CREATING THE ATMOSPHERE OF VICTORY
WHEN IT COMES TO THE WORD SANCTIONS] at the time of the conference to prevent the Iranian
nuclear issue from becoming a rallying cry for non-nuclear states [IRAN ALSO SEEKS TO DISARM
ISRAEL, IRAN HAS CALLED FOR THE END OF THE ISRAELI STATE IN THE PAST]. 

Non-nuclear states assert that the NPT has been misinterpreted and misused by the nuclear states to
keep their club exclusive [IRAN HAS INSULTED THE NPT MORE THAN ONCE IN THE RECENT PAST.
SOMEONE CAN ASSUME THAT IF THE TERMS WILL NOT BE SET AS IRAN AND ITS ALLIES WANT
THEN IRAN CAN FIND THIS AS A PUBLIC EXCUSE FOR ACQUIRING NUCLEAR WEAPONS]. 

At the NPT talks, Washington will be seeking more authority and money for the UN nuclear watchdog
[The Word ‘For’ is not Used as emphatically as words ‘Authority’ and ‘money’. IRAN IS PLAYING
TESTING THE NON ALIGNED COUNTRY ROLE], the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), US
Undersecretary of State for Arms Control Ellen Tauscher said on Friday. 

She referred to Obama's recently-crafted Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), under which the US commits to
never use nuclear weapons against states that do not possess nuclear arsenals, with the exception of
Iran and North Korea. [IRAN HAS DEVELOPED MISSILES WITH INTERCONTINENTAL CAPABILITY]

The New York Times quoted Obama as saying that the loophole would apply to "outliers" like Iran [IRAN
SEEMS TO BE APPEALING REPUBLICAN ELEMENTS IN THE US IN THIS PART], which is an NPT
member, and North Korea, which has withdrawn from the treaty and tested nuclear warheads.

The UN secretary general did not comment on the US president's nuclear threats against two UN
members. [THE OBSERVATION IS USED AS A VEILED INSULT TOWARDS THE TOP UN AUTHORITY
AS IT COMES FROM PRESS TV]

Iran is a signatory to the NPT [UNTILL NOW] and has repeatedly declared that its nuclear program is
peaceful and is being pursued within the framework of international regulations [THE NPT TREATY HAS
A LOT OF UNCARIFICATIONS FROM A STRICTLY ISLAMIC VIEW THAT CAN ALLOW IRAN
ACQUIRE NUCLEAR WEAPONS EVEN NOW. ON THE OTHER HAND IS THE WORLD ONLY A
RELIGION CALLED ISLAM?]. 

In addition, the IAEA has conducted numerous inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities but has never found
any evidence showing that Iran's civilian nuclear program has been diverted to nuclear weapons
production. [MANY IAEA CONCLUSIONS WERE CONTRADICTORY TO EACH OTHER WHILE MR. EL
BARADEI AS PRESENTED BY PRESS TV IS THE PREVIOUS IAEA HEAD WAS IN FAVOR OF IRAN.

OBSERVATIONS.1
The United States of America are negociating with Spain respecting the free
Navigation of the Mississippi, and the territorial limits of this large river, in
conformity with the Treaty of Peace with England dated 30th November, 1782. As the
brilliant successes of the French Republic have forced England to grant us, what was
in all justice our due, so the continuation of the prosperity of the Republic, will force
Spain to make a Treaty with us on the points in controversy.
Since it is certain that all that we shall obtain from Spain will be due to the victories
of France, and as the inhabitants of the western part of the United States (which part
contains or covers more than half the United States), have decided to claim their
rights to the free navigation of the Mississippi, would it not be a wiser policy for the
Republican Government (who have only to command to obtain) to arrogate all the
merit, by making our demands to Spain, one of the conditions, of France, to consent
to restore peace to the Castilians. They have only to declare, they will not make peace,
or that they will support with all their might, the just reclamations of their allies
against these Powers,—against England for the surrender of the frontier posts, and for
the indemnities due through their depredations on our Trade, and against Spain for our
territorial limits, and the free navigation of the Mississippi. This declaration would
certainly not prolong the War a single day more, nor cost the Republic an obole,
whilst it would assure all the merit of success to France, and besides produce all the
good effects mentioned above.

It may perhaps be observed that the Negociation is already finished with England, and
perhaps in a manner which will not be approved of by France. That may be, (though
the terms of this arrangement may not be known); but as to Spain, the negociation is
still pending, and it is evident that if France makes the above Declaration as to this
Power (which declaration would be a demonstrative proof of what she would have
done in the other case if circumstances had required it), she would receive the same
credit as if the Declaration had been made relatively to the two Powers. In fact the
Decree or resolution (and perhaps this last would be preferable) can be worded in
terms which would declare that in case the arrangement with England were not
satisfactory, France will nevertheless, maintain the just demands of America against
that Power. A like Declaration, in case Mr. Jay should do anything reprehensible, and
which might even be approved of in America, would certainly raise the reputation of
the French Republic to the most eminent degree of splendour, and lower in proportion
that of her enemies.

It is very certain that France cannot better favour the views of the British party in
America, and wound in a most sensible manner the Republican Government of this
country, than by adopting a strict and oppressive policy with regard to us. Every one
knows that the injustices committed by the privateers and other ships belonging to the
French Republic against our navigation, were causes of exultation and joy to this
party, even when their own properties were subjected to these depredations, whilst the
friends of France and the Revolution were vexed and most confused about it. It
follows then, that a generous policy would produce quite opposite effects—it would
acquire for France the merit that is her due; it would discourage the hopes of her
adversaries, and furnish the friends of humanity and liberty with the means of acting
against the intrigues of England, and cement the Union, and contribute towards the
true interests of the two republics.

So sublime and generous a manner of acting, which would not cost anything to
France, would cement in a stronger way the ties between the two republics. The effect
of such an event, would confound and annihilate in an irrevocable manner all the
partisans for the British in America. There are nineteen twentieths of our nation
attached through inclination and gratitude to France, and the small number who seek
uselessly all sorts of pretexts to magnify the small occasions of complaint which
might have subsisted previously will find itself reduced to silence, or have to join
their expressions of gratitude to ours.—The results of this event cannot be doubted,
though not reckoned on: all the American hearts will be French, and England will be
afflicted.

AnAmerican.” – Thomas Paine, Volume III, OBSERVATIONS
