the rhetorical arrogance is comical;

"“I think you have to qualify or prove arguments or points if they are new or if they are debatable - but for me at least, these two facts - that the Iranians are working on the nuclear bomb and that they are aggressors for decades - are so obvious, so proven for many times, they are almost - it’s like saying America is the biggest democracy in the world.”

"“I don’t have to prove that,” he added.

"India is widely considered as the largest democracy in the world with 1.4 billion people, while Iran has always denied working on a nuclear weapon."

Not the largest, and not the most democratic either. [0]

"I don’t have to prove that"

Maybe he meant he can't prove that (because it's false)?

Indeed. Except not in the way you attempt to point out.

Middleeasteye.net is owned by Jamal Awn Jamal Bessasso, a Palestinian (self-defined, by which I mostly mean he could choose otherwise) who has Dutch citizenship and made a few million pounds working as a director of planning and HR at Al Jazeera and worked for the Hamas-affiliated Al-Quds TV, and is still Qatar-affiliated.

And if you read his sites (either this one or the other one) ... his publications are A LOT less neutral than Telegraph or Politico.

This is like Vladimir Putin pointing out the Washington Post is not neutral (in fact Putin has done so). He might even be correct, HOWEVER by virtue of the messenger the message is incredibly, overwhelmingly suspect.
