when the mogels came from persia to north india they saw the story telling and thought it was a beautiful art form. they were not engaged with the story but saw the beauty in the footwork and hand movement. they brought the dancers into their courts. they were a form of entertainment. so, i want you to put your imagination caps on. we will go from the forest into a beautiful mogel palace. there are velvet carpets and peacocks walking around. there are beautiful paintings and everyone all of you, the audience have come to enjoy the court and the king sits on his thrown in the corner twirling his mustache and he called for his dancers and they come to the room. you are here to be entertained by them. this is called taught. taught is a highly stylized tuning of the mind and body together. you will see very fast turns ending in sharp stances and things with our eyes and eye brows and our neck, our hands. and you will also hear a language, which you might have heard. this is the language of our dance. it tells us what to do with our feet and our bodies and there is a lot of mask going on. you

they were invaded by british petroleum, persia oil. i've written the second book about this which is coming out next month. the original way i got into the farhud was by documenting the oil in the middle east. the question is where did the jews fit into this? in 1933 -- excuse me, let me go back. in 1919, the jews were given a homelandened the declaration through the league of nations. i don't want you to think this was strictly a british enterprise. the same type of declaration was repeated by the germans in the war, it was repeated by the ottemans who owned palestine. the same type of declaration was given by the united states. this was worldwide phenomenal. in fact, no one view from palestine was in 1919 when the belford declaration was made. when was palestine? it was renamed by the romans in 1818 when the jews were expelled. it was called syria palestina to wipe away the jews in israel. eventually during the 20th century, they didn't know if palestine was a southern part of syria, was a northern part of africa, they still don't kn

quarter earnings and said profit put twenty eleven is also likely to drop five to ten percent but persia moved down following the release of its twenty ten results to. second straight session of losses for the russian markets both the r.t.s. my sakes ended the session losing around half a percent energy majors were a big drag on the industry you just take a look at the. exceptions here lukoil almost completely recovered at the close on the losses bucking the trend was gas probably two point three percent at the close of day to be managed to restore some of its losses of the preview. t. sessions but just some of them. we see russian stocks declining slightly in life in line with oil price and correlate to the will price this is most likely temporary i think the russian stalks are quite a structure for however i think that the mystique themes are going to be played by investors first there's the food inflation the real rates are deeper and they could see if you could have inflation circuit ten percent which is expected for this year and the market is expecting that's robel strengthening it

the name was changed from persia in 1935 to invoke the ancient name of iran, aryan as a salute to a massive nazi dominated iranian infrastructure. when the british took over the oil wells, secured them, as for decades so that in iraq, move into iran, brought in the man you know as the shock of iran, and picked out 2,000 nazi agitators and military men in and created railroad systems, trains, infrastructure, cut iran off from the west and cut the oil off from the west and exclusively to nazi germany. the arabs said ok, we will switch some bales here. they recruited not one muslim fighters. not 100. not 1,000 but tens of thousands of. we -- three divisions. the first was hands are, the second was sandbagged and the third was coma. they worked mainly in yugoslavia. anyone here from yugoslavia? >> they won't -- [talking over each other] >> let me tell you what happened in yugoslavia. accept my apology. what happened in yugoslavia was a man of fold greater genocide that happened in auschwitz. the muslims formed with the catholic church a buy national group, by national genocidal group. you don't

and in 1991, '92, during the midst of the first persia gulf war, i felt a flood of sort of childhood memories coming back. i felt compelled to write at least not bad. a short piece, 800 words in the "washington post." i described my earliest childhood memory, which is really of crossing mandelbaum gate. it is a dreary gate, sort of a check point of a divided jerusalem in those years. barriers that you weaved in and out, rolls of barbed wire, and soldiers 100 feet away. then there was the israeli check point. i told the story in this article about going through the gate one day. because we lived in east jerusalem. he was assigned to the consulate in the jordannian sector. for a while i went to the school in west jerusalem. i was a privileged little boy. no arabs and no israelis were passing through mandelbaum gate to go to jordan. it was just diplomats and the tourist during christmas season or something. one day we got through the gate, at least the jordannian part. and we were approaching the israelis check point. and suddenly i cried out to my father, daddy, daddy, stop the car. an

we certainly can incinerate persia. the she as will not supply the city extremists who would be more likely to use it against the run and the last. will they not use it against israel, you ask i would say only if iranian leaders of the most stupid men and women of law ever created. a large multi faceted and wholly accounted for -- unaccounted for arsenal. it would surely use it if iran looked like it was even remotely thinking about a first strike. the acquisition of nuclear weapons leaves it a island surrounded by hostile alcyone's, military bases, and u.s. and israeli nuclear focused squarely on it. in other words, with or without a nuclear weapon they are contained. it can continue to dabble with violence surrogates in the israel muslim religious world, but it cannot pose a military threat to the united states. before moving to our so-called friends that me say that there is one serious threat to the united states, but only if we or the israelis strike first. thanks to more than 35 years of criminal negligence by the

you mentioned how ron was changed from persia to iran and how it has moved from indigenous ties to the nazi party in trying to appeal. but how many people in tehran or worldwide acknowledge the roots of this name change and what other factors contribute to it? >> the name iran, when i first brought this out some years ago in some articles of was subjected to a massive intimidation campaign, which means nothing. and the name is an ancient name that goes back thousands of years. the swastika is actually an iranian or persian symbol. i'm talking about -- exactly, but it came down. puckett. now, some one in the 19th century there was -- of like to make it clear that in the book we indicate that their roots of the swastika. you see it. around the 19th century there was a mixup of the word, and the scandinavian stock that they were the actual. this allowed this fake aryan race call to to exist which by the rockefeller foundation and the carnegie institution and henry ford to the concept which i also wrote a book on. does the world recognize this? no. to you recognize it? yes. another questio

when we certainly can incinerate persia and the shiites will not supply the sunni extremists would bemore likely to use it again as iran and against the west. but will they not use it against israel, u.s.? i would say on this iranian leaders have been host's big men and women all ever created. israel possesses a large multifaceted and wholly accounted for wmd arsenal that was surely as it is tehran -- it looks like it was remotely thinking about a first strike. indeed come iran's acquisition of nuclear weapons so they fit a shia islands rendered by half while sunnis and the u.s. military bases in u.s. and israeli nuclear tributaries oka squarely on it. in other words, with or without a nuclear weapon, iran is contained. they can continue to dabble with its violent circuit in israel moved him water, but it cannot pose a military threat to the united states. before moving toward so-called saudi friends, let me say that there is one serious iranian threat to the united states, but only if we or the israeli strike iran first. thanks to martin 35 years of criminal negligence by the u.s. ex
