Cenk Uygur, the main host of the far-left political talk show ‘The Young Turks,’ joined Piers Morgan’s ‘Uncensored‘ to discuss the unrest unfolding in Iran. Rather than focus on the bravery and risk faced by Iranian protesters, Uygur instead chose to focus using the opportunity to smear Israel and US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee.
Fellow panelist, Human Rights activist Goldie Ghamar, unloaded on Uygur.
When asked by Morgan if this might be the end of the Iranian regime, Uygur replied, “Piers, in this case, the most important thing to recognize is that there are two separate issues going on here. One is thing is the Iranian people’s battle with the regime. And there, we support the Iranian people 100%. I would love for Iran be a democracy, control its own country, a beacon for freedom in the Middle East. That would be amazing. I would hope that everyone would want that.
He continued, “But there’s a second issue also going on at the same time. Which is that Israel wants regime change in Iran. They’ve wanted it for 20 years. They’ve agitated for it this entire time, including through the representatives Israel like Mike Huckabee. He’s not our ambassador, he’s the Israeli ambassador. And we know that now because he had a secret meeting with Jonathan Pollard, who’s a traitor to America…so he meets with traitors secretly by the way behind Trump’s back, behind the American people’s back.”
Uygur continued to use his time to slam Israel rather than focusing on the critical and possibly historic uprisings in Iran.
During his anti-Israel screed (which never actually became pro-Iranian people remarks) Ghamar could not hold back her disgust.
Morgan asked, “Goldie Ghamar, you were pulling a number of faces there, none of which I would describe as particularly indicating an agreement with what Cenk was saying. So what would you like to say?”
Ghamar came out swinging, “I mean, first of all, Cenk is not Iranian, so he has no idea what’s going on in occupied Iran. Pretty sure Cenk doesn’t speak Persian either, so he probably has no idea what the tens of millions-”
An embarrassed Uygur tried to cut it, “It’s Farsi.”
Ghamar hit back, “No, actually, it’s Persian. Persian is the English word for Farsi. So don’t correct me when I’m speaking, and don’t interrupt me. I let you speak your garbage jihad-islamist propaganda.”
Uygur continued interupting and adding, “You should know your native language, though.”
Ghamar, continued, “You do not get to talk over me. You do not get to talk over me or interrupt me when I’m speaking on behalf of 90 million Iranians who are out in the streets right now, fighting for their lives.”
Uygur said, “You’re not speaking on behalf of all Iranians.”
Ghamar replied, “Yes, I am. You speak about the bombings or whatever…”
Uygur cut in again and said petulantly, “When did they elect you?”
Why are you speaking over me? Why are you speaking over me? Are you threatened by what I’m about to say? Is that why you want to interrupt me? I suggest you keep your mouth shut until I’m done speaking,” Ghamar shot back.
“No, because you’re pretending to represent people that never elected you.”
Morgan finally cut in, “Well, let her speak. Chink, all respect. She let you speak. Let her respond.”
“Yeah, I let you speak your garbage propaganda, so now it’s my turn to speak the truth. So do not interrupt me again. So like I was saying Piers, Iranians right now are literally risking their lives out there, and they are saying, this is the final battle, Pahlavi will return. Pahlavi is, of course, the current Shah of Iran in exile,” Ghamar continued.
“And what people don’t know is that back in 1979, it’s not actually a revolution. It was an Islamic coup d’État. It was orchestrated by Jimmy Carter. Sorry, actually, it was orchestrated by the Islamists and the Communists, and it was funded and supported by Jimmy Carter, the UK, and France.”
“So what is happening right now? This is Iranians trying to rectify, and they are rectifying, (a) 47-year mistake that was made. And what Iranians, what we’re saying, is that we are going out and we are not going to stop fighting until we not only overthrow the Islamic dictatorship, but we return our king, because there is only one person that we, Iranians, trust to transition us from a dictatorship to a democracy, and that is His Royal Highness.”
“And one final point, Iran was not an authoritarian dictatorship prior to 1979. We were a constitutional monarchy just like England. That is what we are fighting for. So anyone who says that Iran was an authoritarian dictatorship, they know nothing about the country, because we used to be a constitutional monarchy.”
