Letter From Iranian Intellectuals To Lebanese People: Don’t Trust Ahmadinejad

October 15, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Those letters from intellectuals just keep coming. First, there was one from 250 Lebanese public figures addressed to Mr. Ahmadinejad, now there’s one written by Iranian intellectuals to the Lebanese people:

A group of about 30 Iranian journalists, intellectuals, and academics based in the United States, Canada, and Europe have said in an open letter addressed to the people of Lebanon that they should not be fooled by Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad, whom they accuse of being up to no good.

The original letter -which for some odd reason is in Persian- can be found here. A partial English translation can be found here.
