Angry Video Captures Ahmadinejad Spokesman Accosted on NYC Street: ‘Fu**ing Terrorist!’

Sep. 27, 2012 8:30am Jonathon M. Seidl

A video posted on YouTube captured an angry mob accosting — at some times hitting — the spokesman for Iranian President Ahmadinejad.

The video shows the crowd following Ramin Mehmanparast as he tries to walk across the street. The mob, however, cuts him off several times forcing him to wander from sidewalk to sidewalk as police try to hold back the people yelling curses at the man. You can see the video below, which was taken by someone inside the crowd (content warning for graphic language):

Another video shows the incident from a different angle and was taken by onlookers (content warning for language):

The Associated Press captured images of the incident:

In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us. Find out more HERE.

  Isn’t it interesting that Barry refused to help the Iranian people when they rose up against the lunatics? I just watched Obama’s America 2016 last night and I have to say that it is without a doubt the scariest movie I have ever seen.

  TICKDOG? That’s an Iranian flag one of them is draped in. They’re likely exiled Iranian jews who were forced to flee Iran after the Shah was removed from power and the Islamists took over…thanks to Jimmy Carter’s lobbying for the Ayatollah to return to Iran.

  Hey Jerk,
  
  You should thank God for that, if New York were Libya or Egypt, he would have been killed and sadomized.

  lol. You people are too much- I thought all of NYC was liberal? but wait, liberals ALSO dislike tyrants?!?!?! when wittle gwenny beck gets a dirty look at a nyc restaurant, it’s liberals- when ahmadinijad gets accosted by nyc citizens, they are all conservatives.
  
  the fact that you folks see EVERYTHING as a right vs left issue is what’s wrong with our country- NOT Obama.

  Jerk,
  
  As I am sure I have told you before, This country was founded under God’s laws, my Christian God’s laws. It is the foundation that has made this country what it is today, what has given us the freedoms that we enjoy that a lot of other countries don’t have. I know that you think Jews took the land from the Palestinians but I strongly disagree. How can they take land from someone when that land was given to them by God Almighty? When we gave them their land BACK in 1948, how many Palestinians were living there? The Middle East needs to let the past go and accept that the land belongs to the Jews and Jerusalem is it’s capital, but in the same breath, the Jews need to stop trying to settle on more land that was not obtained in the war of 1963. If the Jews want peace this must happen, but the majority of the Middle East will never have peace with the Jews which is why I don’t understand you. How can you side with such hatefull people? Why do you have such hate for God’s choosen people and his land? I will pray for you Jerk but please return the favor because sometimes you test my patience.

  Adolph Ahmadipshits minister of propaganda getting served justice from Iranian victims relatives of the 2009 Iranian uprising.
  Payback is a bitch !!
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDb4A4s1U9w
  Mr.Ahmadipshit should have been arrested upon arrival in New York instead of getting first class accommodations at the Ritz.

  They’re always exceptions, but in general, Iranians have a bigger beef with the mullahs than do Iranian Jews. They left, they’ve moved on. The Iranians though, they still have a dog in the fight, they’re ticked off. You have no evidence to suggest the people hitting & harassing this man are Jewish. Jews in general behave in a more dignified manner. Being a cultured and well educated people, they know that there are more effective ways of dealing with their enemies. To “The Jerk” (remember, you picked your own handle): If NYC is Jerusalem West, imagine how rough it would be without the civilizing factor of the Jewish community. Hopefully, you’ll get an opportunity to find out, as my brethren leave and return to their ancestral homeland.

All muslimes deserve more violent treatment than this.

Centuries ago, a pedophile war-lord under the influence of satan formed a military cult and declared war on the rest of the world. When will the rest of the world finally return the favor?

“Radical” muslimes are those honest about their goal of world-wide domination by force.

“Moderate” muslimes are liars.

In WWI, the Central Powers were supported by muslimes from the Ottoman Empire, Azerbaijan, and Northern Caucasus. The Central Powers LOST.

In WWII, Hitler’s Nazis were supported by muslimes from North Africa, the Middle East, and the Balkans. The Nazis LOST.

What group of non-muslime anti-Semites wants to join with the muslimes for WWIII?

  Just wanted to chime in that I completely agree with you and your thoughts! As well as do hundreds of others here in the midwest! We need more people to wake up to the Illusion that the muslim people have bestowed upon us. They are taking over folks. We need to clean house of them all if we dare to stay a free country! Do your research! You will find the truth!

  don’t think there will be any “force joining” per se. You will just have multiple fronts of multiple wars going on at the same time. China against Japan, ME (Iran and Egypt) against Israel, the US being brought down from within…its about to get so nasty our children AND grandchildren will probably still be fighting to get their freedom back

what exactly the issue with iran? have they attacked the USA? No. Have they attacked Israel? No. The majority of the arab world doesn’t like them. even al queda doesn’t like them. these people have very few friends. and they have not attacked anyone. how are they a threat to the USA? oh thats right, they are NOT. quit beating the war drums and end up wasting billions of US dollars and thousands of US lives again for no reason.

  Have you ever turned on your TV? Ever watched Iranian people burn our flaf while shouting death to America? If not, then you need to shut it because appearently you aren’t up to speed on the climate of our foreign policies and how thingns really are. No one hurt the man, No Blood was shed. Now, lets stick a Ny Reporter in same streets of Iran, do you seriously believe he would walk about unscathed? Hell no he wouldn’t, he would be lucky to even retain his life! Its obvious that you want to believe that all Muslims are peaceful, well weve tried that, it didn’t turn out so well, see Afghan troop trainers being killed by the same troops they were training. So while its all good for you to sit there and sing peace and happiness, No one hears you!

  Apparently you have never heard of the Ayatollah Khomeini. He kept over 50 Americans hostage for a very very long time, while then President Jimmy Carter impotently did absolutely nothing about it. The second Reagan took office he sent in a rescue team and liberated our people from that terrorist freak. Obama is worse than Carter as he is depple in bed with the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, EVEN GOING SO FAR AS TO MEET WITH MEMBERS OF IT IN THE OVAL OFFICE!! The womb of Democracy!!! You need to shut up and piss off CDN1979!!!

Its about time the people in America start getting aggravated! Good for this man who did what everyone in New York should have done. TERRORISTS ARE NOT WELCOME HERE – and NEITHER ARE THEIR SYMPATHIZERS! And That means you too Mr. Obama!

Everyone please get out and vote this November!

  You said it well – its time to openly recognize this for what it is and start pushing back – good for those new yorkers-! – muslims are taking over and infiltrating from within, this is what they have done all through the centuries-! – we have our apologist in chief president meeting with terrorists in the white house for petes sake-!! Our own president has sold us out and is letting his muslim thugs infiltrate our government from within-! The longer we let this go on the more entrenched they will be – I can just see ‘em using mosques as weapon bases in large citys, theyre biggest trick is to hide behind theyre so called religion and use it as an excuse to kill Americans and anyone else they consider an infidel. These uncivilized animals only understand one thing, deadly force. And if they keep up the Anti- American attacks it will eventually come to that, how much are we supposed to put up with anyway-??!!!
  — almost seems like he might have been wanting something to happen that would give them the excuse to rattle their sabres even more, or worse. Hes lucky the NYPD did their job, with no protection that group might have grown to a violent mob and tore him apart. I hate to think we stoop to their level, but at some point you have to stand up and fight for your country.

what are the open carry laws in the state/city of where ever the consulates are for iran, egypt, syria, etc

we, the well armed milita could protest outside of them, i am NOT saying we would fire on anyone, just exercise our rights of gun ownership, open/conceal carry, free speech, and the right to peacefully assemble

  That is a GREAT idea….. But maybe we should off Lybia’s ambassador the way they did to ours….
  
  Beat him, sodomize him, kill him, and then claim, “we we’re trying to RESCUE him…”
  
  I know that may sound like sarcasm, but I seriously would think it appropriate… The M.E. people ALWAYS complain how we treat them poorly…. So we should show them what its like when we really do decide to TREAT SOMEONE POORLY…..

  Yeah, at least we didn’t rape him and then murder him like they did to Chris Stevens. These savages couldn’t just kill him, they had to degrade and dehumanize him first. They all need to be bombed back to the stone age where I am sure they would be right at home with their Ancient, hate based religion. I think there are a number of places in the Middle East that need to be made into a sheet of glass by our Nukes. Then we can clear the land and give an even bigger piece to Israel and start over with our true friends in charge of the oil!!

  I’m with you Sir. If Islam and its barbarism has not dominated the world before, thus allowing the West civilization to achieve the freedom and civilization we enjoy it’s only because, in the past, the courageous Christian Saints of the Catholic Church like Saint Louis fought the Muslims with the sword! There is no other way!

I am sure the Prez will apologize for this and use it as an excuse for more anti-American violence in the Middle East. They’re offended by movies and verbal attacks. Meanwhile, they don’t understand why we are indignant over their favorite tactic of indescriminantly killing dozens, hundreds, thousands of innocent people.

Frankly I am shocked these people are allowed into the United States at all. The Banned Micheal Savage from Britain. The stop 2 3 4 and even 5 year old children from flying on planes in the USA because they are just some name on a TERRORIST WATCH LIST a NO FLY LIST from traveling. BUT people we KNOW are terrorist are allowed to walk the streets as free men.

We are no longer a free country, have not been since …oh lets say …..the day the Federal Reserve opened.
