Dan Fleshler, without his glasses, on Press TV…

Dan FleshlerComments(3)

Before the Iranian elections, I was interviewed for a show called “The Autograph” on Press TV, the Iranian English language network. It focused on me and is about 20 minutes long. You can find the link to the network archive here. Then click on “Autograph” and you’ll find the interview with Dan Fleshler. It was broadcast last night and will be on all week,although not in the U.S. Interesting time to be on Iranian T.V, huh?

I am reasonably happy with what I said, and that they did not delete the parts of the interview in which I spoke of Palestinian obligations to stop violence and incitement and the need to recognize the reality of the Jewish state…Ah, but I also used the term “Palestine” twice. So there will be something for everyone to grumble about.
