What the Hungarian guy did is definitely out of line, since he's a PUBLIC official and shouldn't be making such stupid comments in public. Of course the saudi and PERSIAN Gulf arab teams aren't terrorists or gorrillas or apes. But the reason we as Iranians have developed such a nasty attitude towards them is how they've consistently showed a nasty and rascist attitude towards us. Just look at how the AFC management, and how they've shown a consistent, though declining bias against Iran. This really goes back for me personally to the Asian Cup in 1996 when I believe it was Daei who was seriously fouled on the level of a red card and the ref turned a blind eye to what happened. And of course, it continued even the the recent Asian Cup when the bahrainis acted like Apes and did a nasty foul on Daei from behind in order to provoke our players into a fight(which they succeeded in doing), and got Mahdavikia a red card(even though the video replay showed he didn't do anything physically to the bahrainis). It's the swearing in Persian throughout that match to Ali Daei, it's the bahrainis who carried the saudis flag around the stadium in 2002 when we lost in manama, it's the grassrolling that I've honestly never seen from any other group of players being as bad as it is from the Persian Gulf arabs, it's the arab referees in Iran's games against arab teams(chosen by the brilliant AFC of course) who can't just judge the game fairly, which is all we ask.
It's the way(outside of football) in which they have the tenacity to try to change the name of a body of water that has been called the Persian Gulf for mellenia, they manner in which despite how much we supported their fellow Palestinian "brothers" they gave sagh-dumb as much weaponry and money as he needed in order to hurt Iran as much as that savage ape could. It's the way in which the Palestinians themselves carried sagh-dumb signs in their protests. I mean they didn't even carry one khamenei poster or picture in sign of some appreciation for how much Iran's been a supporter of their cause. Not even One! But of course they love their fellow arab buddy saddam who gasses Iranians and Kurds in droves and laughs at the killing he causes.
It's the way in which the majority of saudis support osama bin laden, and his disgusting terrorism. It's the way in which these wahabi arab vahshis took control in Afghanistan, and savagely brutalized her people. It's the way in which many arabs supported and even celebrated the carnage of September 11, while brave Iranians came out in the streets in defiance of their own government's anti-Americanism to show their support with the people of America and their disgust towards terrorism.
You see, there's a reason why many Iranians have this attitude towards arabs, especially those on the southern end of the Persian Gulf. I don't recall reading a post on ISP calling Africans apes, or Mexicans, or any other ethnic group. It's because of the way they treat us, that we have a much more positive attitude towards the Japanese whom we play than the bahraini vahshis.
However, I do believe we are making a mistake. I mean come on, what did the poor apes or chimpanzees ever do to have their name disrespected like this? I think we ought to have some more respect towards these primates than to insult their good name, don't you think??
