Ahmadinejad Chastises ‘Uncivilized Zionists’ & Derides Capitalism in U.N General Assembly Address

The Iranian president, mirroring his comments to the Associated Press earlier in the day, spoke about the need for a new world order.

“The current world order has certain characteristics — some of which are as follows,” he explained. “It is founded on materialism and that is why it is in no way bound to moral values. It has been shaped according to selfishness, deception, hatred and animosity…It seeks to expand its domination…to monopoligze power, wealth, science and technology for a limited group.”

In his assessment of the global economic, social and political systems, Ahmadinejad painted a dire picture, claiming that “a limited number of countries” exploit others and that consumerism controls too many nations’ motivations. He derided “unilateralism,” “double standards” and the purportedly controlling nature of “the hegemonic powers.”

“A state of mistrust has cast its shadow on the international relations,” he proclaimed, later adding, “Today, everyone is discontented and disappointed with the current international order.”
