Karoubi’s letter in response to Ahmadinejad’s false accusations in an interview with PBS.
Greetings,
As you are well aware, on Tuesday Mr. Ahmadinejad’s interview with Charlie Rose was broadcast on Channel1 [IRIB1.] When speaking of post-election events, the host of this American TV network pointed to the subject of rape in prisons.
It is quite unfortunate that the culture of lying has become an inseparable part of the executive branch [of government.] I don’t know what it is about New York that brings out this personal attribute [i.e., lying] of the president’s twofold. It is also unfortunate that the Islamic Republic’s broadcasting service has also been transformed to a medium that spreads this vile culture [of lying] and the result is the lack of trust people feel towards this public medium.
