Blank Stare: Ahmadinejad promoting compassionate co-existence?

By Briana Booker

I am not sure if a light bulb turned on for Ahmadinejad, President of Iran, for the better but I really valued his most recent speech at the United Nations Anti-Poverty Summit. He discussed how the world needs to push away from cruel management, unjust, unfair, inhumane violations against humanity. It is quite a few notches up from his hatred of Israel and Israelis. However, I hope his words are actually sincere. I hope Ahmadinejad is not calling people out on their false words and actions of  capitalism being the guide to a humane world. Yet, still speaking on his historically prejudice mindset. Talk is cheap, until proven to be valid.

I admire the following statement of Ahmadinejad:

"We need to revert to the divine mindset, to our true nature for which man was created and indeed, to the just and fair governance," calling it a prerequisite and a guarantor for realizing "justice, love and security" in society. "

I am a firm believer of this mindset. It has been the reason I am changing the scope of Fromgirltogirl. I have been searching these past few months for a divine mindset. I like the thought that someone with some type of political power decided to speak about this at a very essential summit- a summit on Poverty. I hope the speech causes a stir.
