During revolutionary and pro justice speeches’ of Ahmadinejad at the Durban conference [3] a few good poems have been written and friends should help to communicate them by SMS….” Two of the verses are :
داني كه چيست معني آن ترك كنفرانس؟ *** يعني گريخت دشمن از آن منطق كلام
ايران به دليرمرد خود مينازد *** با احمدياش به دشمنان ميتازد
Iran is proud of his brave man. It attacks with its Ahmadi [i.e. Ahmadinejad] to the enemies
Madreseh Ma (“Our School”) says [4] [fa] that the Durban conference became Ahmadinejad's conference. “What Ahmadinejad did can not be wiped off history's memory. Now the West is afraid of Iran participating in any conference on racism.”
