Oy vey.

A 12-year-old candidate for Iran's presidency said that if elected, he would buy Hawaii from the United States and lease it to Israel.

An introductory sentence that bizarre simply cannot be made up.

From Israeli publication Haaretz:

A 12-year-old Iranian schoolboy who hopes to unseat hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has vowed that, if elected, he will resettle Israelis in Hawaii, The Scotsman reported on Friday.

"I will buy Hawaii, Obama's birthplace, from the United States and lease it to the Israelis who will go to live there - so that they don't kill children in Gaza," the Scottish daily quoted presidential candidate Kourosh Mozouni as saying.

The paper said Mozouni made the comments to reporters after he turned up to register holding his father's hand and waving a written campaign manifesto.

The boy also said videogames should be banned and men should be paid more so women don't have to work.

That's just Adorable.

-- Stephen C. Webster

  1. Thanks for the inflammatory headline, Rawstory, which does not accurately convey the actual story. First of all, the "candidate" is 12 YEARS OLD, and second, he says ISRAELIS not Jews.

    Why don't you then report what all 12 year old Jewish settlers says about Muslims and Arabs? I bet it is waaaaay worse than this.

    He should buy Miami instead, half the Jewish population is already there.

    to doctim11:

    We're everywhere. Get over yourself!

    Personally, I think it IS adorable.


  5. instead of buying hawaii, we jes' took it. The missionaries went over to save their sinful souls, and the missionaries children confiscated the land to grow pineapples, with the help of President Benjamin Harrison. They did it "to protect" Queen Liliokalani from a traitorous uprising, so they said.

    Kind of reminds you of the Balfour Declaration, eh?

    Actually, if anybody could get over their ancient hatred or notions of holy places, we would have no problem. Come on, Arabs, Christians and Jews, if Joseph Smith can simply declare "This is the place" and establish a holy site and religious empire at the edge of the Great Salt Lake, can't one or more of you just get real and pick some some other place to hold in high regard as the homeland of your alien gods? Don't you really, deep inside, just want to get the heck out of the middle east? If you have not noticed, is not the most beautiful or temperate place to expend a lot of treasury or blood over. How about at least the Palestinians or the Jews move to Temecula? Honestly I think the weather is better, the security is certainly much better, the cost of living is quite affordable and you can still listen to the Los Angeles Angles of Anaheim on the radio. (Which shows you how important a homeland really is! No?) I'll welcome any of you out here to the inland empire, really. We can put up some holy sites, maybe a Kaaba-stone-like thingy, or a wall to cry next to, and we will all be OK. We will get on with history, OK?


  7. TONY

    Maybe Obama-Kohonomoko can impress Bibbila that he's crapshooting for more generations of blood and death between two cultures who think they have a lock on God. They don't. (This ignorant kid emphasizes how deep the shit is.) The world has suffered for their delusions long enough!


  8. johnypaycut

    Sorry kid, Hawaii's not for sale/ anyway, you'v got 'em ,your stuck now.
    how 'bout this? i'l give you texas(an throw in Bush to sweeten the deal). you give me Iran.


  9. Atilla

    Johnny Paycut...I agree totally. The Israeli Banksters already own Hawaii. Texas is perfect! We could also put the Muslim and Christian Taliban there. Give them all lots of weapons, build a huge fence between it and the USA, then tell the Cucarachas they can have it back if they can take it away.....Like my mom always said, "The only good thing that ever came out of Texas was an empty Greyhound Bus".


  10. gijoe

    He should buy some C4 and blow himself up


  11. Atilla

    Actually, Hawaii is not too bad of an Idea. We could put all of the worshipers of the evil god of Abraham, (Muslims, Jews, and Xians), there and supply them all with axes and machetes until there are none left alive. The whole world would turn into a paradise then.


  12. Christopher

    Horrible headline. Worse picture. Horrible telling of this supposed story. I am not pro-anything, especially anything 'Zionist', but get real. I don't get Rawstory. You did a site makeover, so now this? Please use common sense.


  13. nader paul kucinich gravel

    Kourosh Mozouni has a conscience.
    He reflects well on his family & country.

    Unlike too many Israelis


  14. kscitydude

    "doctim11
    He should buy Miami instead, half the Jewish population is already there."

    I agree with you!


  15. gravel kucinich paul nader

    Now over at the temple
    Oh! they really pack 'em in
    The in crowd say it's cool
    To dig this chanting thing
    But as the wind changed direction
    The temple band took five
    The crowd caught a wiff
    Of that crazy casbah jive...


  16. Horthy

    Why not buy Hawaii and move the Vatican there so Obama can get an honorary degree from Notre Dame.


  17. Panskeptic

    The story shows the abysmal hatred and ignorance of some followers of Islam. Only the obsessive Jew-haters here can turn it into a slam on Israel.

    Jew hatred is a form of mental illness. There's more than a few here who are in desperate need of therapy.


  18. Panda Monium

    Why doesn't somebody ask the Hawaiians how they would feel about this? What the US did to the Kingdom of Hawaii is criminal enough in itself. How about Antarctica? Should be tropical enough in a few decades...


  19. Andy

    Since the world donated Palestinian land to the Jews, how about the US donate New Mexico or some other sparsely populated area to the Palestinians so they can go live in peace? Alaska is also rather lacking in population.


  20. R

    The reason people dislike Jews is purely because of what the kid said. Its not his father teaching him it is cause and responce. 911 was also just about greed - condemned asbestos buildings hit with a remote controlled plane. Pentagon has anti aircraft missiles but didnt use them - no plane wreckage - no videos....WMD in Iraq?? Get real.....pure greed is the reason people dont like Jews. About time they did some good to balance things up and make amends. Nothing personal although I am sure to get those ignorant reponces also.


  21. Jhoffa_

    Meanwhile, the 12yo Jewish kids are in training to continue Israel's long legacy of apartheid...

  25. The Jews want the land because "someone" is supposed to appear atop a hill there in 2012 so there's no way they'll be out before 2013 no matter who wins.


  26. Vajid Ali

    this is news worthy? Im sorry buy times must be hard if you think this is worth a mention


  27. joe

    sounds like a good plan then us can test atomic bombs there


  28. The headline should read Aloha Oy!

    Forget hawaii, let them wonder the deserts again! DIASPORA 2009

    To doctim11: Just like roaches!


  31. Domino

    Was it not Cromwell who wanted to throw the Irish out of Ireland and repopulate it with Jew?


  32. TJ

    Unfortunately, this will still go down as the most plausible road to peace in the Middle East.


  33. Thanks for changing the headling, Rawstory. Now I am waiting for all the outrageous things 12 year old Israeli settlers do, like when they attack Muslims and Christians. I won't be holding my breath.


  34. Dennis

    Hawaii doesn't have enough land mass.
    Try Mexico instead . The Jews could develop this Country into an economic Super Power.The Mexicans would would have a better standard of living.


  35. libertarian1002

    thanks for the laugh this morning


  36. Uncle Joe Mccarthy

    really love when the jew haters post here

    guess its really boring over at storm front


  37. Ben

    Personally, I'm applauding the kid for wanting to give the Israelis somewhere nicer to go than the places suggested by most Iranian leaders... baby steps, eh?


  38. Chris

    I'm not sure how the Japanese, who have already purchased most of Hawaii, will deal with that.

    Why not resettle them all in Mississippi, there's very few Jihadis there.

    I think what's lost in all the admittedly good humour in the responses here is that Jews have been an identifiable entity for about 5000 years. They fought for the land when our ancestors were still figuring out how to keep a fire going during the night, or the winter. And they did it mostly successfully for a rather long period of time, even as semi-autonomous vassals along an important trade route.

    They maintained their identity, and still do so today by adherence to clear principles on what it means to be a Jew.

    I am not Jewish, and genuflect mockingly to any Jewish Princess who thinks knowing the word Goy makes her smart. Jewish intellectuals established 1500-1000 years ago the principles on how one is to treat a non-jew: with respect and integrity, so that you may maintain your own honor. Obviously the timeline reflects the fact that Jews were widely dispersed and respected several major centers of learning, and in an age where a trip to the holy land might take a year....ideas traveled slowly.

    For any Iranian (even a cute 12 year old boy) to be totally ignorant of his or her own thousands year-long history of the powerful Persian society and culture, and assume that only the last few hundred years means anything, is to ignore reality.

    Jews formed one of the strongest and most important bulwarks of the Persian Empire, as thousands of families were exiled to Babylon to assist with rebuilding after a long period of warfare and subsequent depopulation.

    Sorry about the rambling rant. Desert and dust it may be, but the Palestinians are descendants of a many-times defeated relic of Hellenistic colonization and occupation, and only claim Islam when it is convenient. Jews never claim religion when convenient.

    And you know what, after 5000 years they are still here. Who knows....maybe they are the original Masons.
