Ahmadinejad's Iran
By Micah Halpern

Thursday August 9, 2007

I've Been Thinking:

Another day, another rant from Iranian leader Ahmadinejad.

The occasion: Journalist Day
The venue: the offices of INRA, the Islamic Republic News Agency, the official voice of Iran
The subject: unfair reporting by the foreign press
The proof: they choose the wrong sides and use the wrong words
More proof: they portray Iran poorly
Most important proof: they misrepresent the real conflict with the Palestinians.
Best quote: by distorting the reality the world has come away with a misunderstanding of the Palestinian cause

Like most thugs and dictators Ahmadinejad thinks he is correct.
He thinks that anyone who dares challenge him is wrong.

Case in point: the Iranian newspaper Sharq
The paper was shut down and the editors were arrested two days ago
The crime: an interview with lesbian Iranian poet now living in Canada.

In Iran, you do it Ahmadinejad's way or it is not done at all.
