Just ran across several articles about an e-mail that Mehr News (Iran)
claims Kerry's office sent them in Feb. Very interesting, wondering if this
was sent from Kerry's Senate Office, if so, is this legal? This e-mail
seems unethical.

Kerry Says He Will Repair Damage If He Wins Election


WASHINGTON (Mehr News Agency) -- The office of Senator John Kerry, the frontrunner in the Democratic presidential primary in the U.S., sent the Mehr News Agency an e-email saying that Kerry will try to repair the damage done by the incumbent president if he wins the election. The text of the e-mail follows.

As Americans who have lived and worked extensively overseas, we have personally witnessed the high regard with which people around the world have historically viewed the United States. Sadly, we are also painfully aware of how the actions and the attitudes demonstrated by the U.S. government over the past three years have threatened the goodwill earned by presidents of both parties over many decades and put many of our international relationships at risk.

It is in the urgent interests of the people of the United States to restore our country's credibility in the eyes of the world. America needs the kind of leadership that will repair alliances with countries on every continent that have been so damaged in the past few years, as well as build new friendships and overcome tensions with others.

We are convinced that John Kerry is the candidate best qualified to meet this challenge. Senator Kerry has the diplomatic skill and temperament as well as a lifetime of accomplishments in field of international affairs. He believes that collaboration with other countries is crucial to efforts to win the war on terror and make America safer.

An understanding of global affairs is essential in these times, and central to this campaign Kerry has the experience and the understanding necessary to successfully restore the United States to its position of respect within the community of nations. He has the judgment and vision necessary to assure that the United States fulfills a leadership role in meeting the challenges we face throughout the world.

The current Administration's policies of unilateralism and rejection of important international initiatives, from the Kyoto Accords to the Biological Weapons Convention, have alienated much of the world and squandered remarkable reserves of support after 9/11. This climate of hostility affects us all, but most especially impacts those who reside overseas. Disappointment with current U.S. leadership is widespread, extending not just to the corridors of power and politics, but to the man and woman on the street as well.

We believe John Kerry is the Democrat who can go toe-to-toe against the current Administration on national security and defense issues. We also remain convinced that John Kerry has the best chance of beating the incumbent in November, and putting America on a new course that will lead to a safer, more secure, and more stable world.

We need to get a Kerry campaign comment on this. Has anyone sent this to Drudge, Boortz, Hannity, Limbaugh, BOR et al? Who's taking point? Or rather, how many of us are going to bombard the above named individuals with this? Let their fact checkers get on it...if it's true, Granny bar the door...THIS WOULD BE A 3 frame GREAT AD!

UCMJ definition of treason highlighted
Kerry treasonously negotiated with the enemy in Paris
30 years later, he's doing it again.

or words to that effect, drafted my those more eloquent than I.

Alright - when old news is good news. There's got to more out there,
Iran can't be the only foreign government Kerry has sent something like this do. So it's dig, dig, dig...............

In my humble opinion, John Kerry has done it again.

Just like some 30 odd years ago when John Kerry betrayed his countrymen by holding secret meetings with the North Vietnamese government, he has once again sent a message to an enemy of our Nation by saying he will fix everything when he is elected President.

Thus he has given aide and comfort to our enemies, the Iranians, a Nation categorized as a part of the Axis of Evil, by giving them a reason to help defeat George Bush’s re-election bid. How many deaths have been caused by Iranians who have fled to Iraq to kill American soldiers in hopes that a bloodied American army in Iraq will spell defeat for George Bush in November and thus bring in the reign of John Kerry?

If the answer is even….. one……single…...soldiers…...death, then John Kerry needs be held accountable.

Here is the text of the article that appeared in the Tehran Times News online. This does not appear to be an Iranian paper unless this is simply an English version.

[crazyndn]

It definitely appears they are an Iranian website, only that they present their news in English. They are listed as Middle East news source on multiple websites.

The paper says that this is the English transcript of the e-mail.
Could the original have been sent from Kerry's office in Iranian?
I'd love to see who put this together and verified that it did originate
from Kerry's Senate office. Who and how to do this?

[GoophyDog]

This has tones of a mass mailing. I'm wondering what other countries may have received the same.

Talk about undermining the Administrations Foreign Policy. This is a total bombshell if true. Just like in 71, TRAITOR Kerry will do anything.

He's not fit to be a janitor at McD's.


Keep out TRAITOR Kerry
UnFit for Command
Unfit of this Country
