Ann Curry’s interview with Irianian president Hassan Rouhani was undoubtedly the biggest moment in her career since she was ousted from the “Today” show in 2012.
“Are Americans afraid of getting casualties on the ground in Iraq?” Rouhani asked. “Are they afraid of their soldiers being killed in the fight they claim is against terrorism?”
“If they want to use planes and if they want to use unmanned planes so that nobody is injured from the Americans, is it really possible to fight terrorism without any hardship, without any sacrifice?” he continued. “Is it possible to reach a big goal without that? In all regional and international issues, the victorious one is the one who is ready to do sacrifice.”
At the same time, Rouhani said ISIS’ killing of innocents goes against Muslim precepts. “They want to kill humanity,” he said. “And from the viewpoint of the Islamic tenets and culture, killing an innocent people equals the killing of the whole humanity. And therefore, the killing and beheading of innocent people in fact is a matter of shame for them and it’s the matter of concern and sorrow for all the human and all the mankind.”

I used to be a big fan of Ann Curry, but my opinion of her did an about face after I viewed her very rude and condescending interview of ex NTSB investigator Greg Feith seeking comment over the mysterious disappearance of Malaysia flight 370. After that I can appreciate the negative comments her past colleagues have expressed of
her demeanor.
