Listening to his interviews, he is one funny fella. I do wish he wasn't the Iranian president though.
I tried to take his advice and follow God, but he's f*cking fast and I lost track of him. Where is he going? I'll just meet him there.
I cant figure this guy out, sometimes he sounds like an intelligent man who is trying to extend an olive branch to the west, than other times he sounds like another fundamentalist wackjob.
Spreading the message of peace in Islam...That's Ahmadinejad all right...Threats of destruction always makes peace.That's like the reaction before from Muslims when people said they were violent. They responded by...being violent. That's illogical in anyone's book.
He's always blabbing about how Israel and the US will soon vanish, which is completely ridiculous...but thats where people freak out with him getting nuclear weapons...but he won't be able to use them on us even when he gets them...Islamic radicals won't destory us...so I don't know where he's going with those comments...he never goes into detail...not that I'd care if he did...the guys irrational and terrible leader.
I don't think he is a terrible leader, he is trying to modernize Iran. he's even passed some laws which granted more freedoms to women, but the radical cleriqs ruled them illegal.
If this guy would just lay down some of his harsh statements for a while like the one that's mentioned in this thread he actually has some good things to say.

Really? I didn't know he was for giving women more rights. All I knew about him is he helps the poor people or something. I probably should know more about this stuff.
Here is one of the links I could find. I know its not from the most realiable source.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>On 24 April 2006, Ahmadinejad announced that a ruling which prevented women from watching men playing sports in stadiums would soon be reversed.[21][22][23]. A state television announcer reported that Ahmadinejad "ordered the head of the sports organization to provide facilities in the stadiums to watch national matches." Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying: "The best stands should be allocated to women and families in the stadiums in which national and important matches are being held." Two days earlier, Ahmadinejad had objected to punishment of women appearing in stadiums without proper hijab. His remarks angered some supporters.[24][verification needed] Soon after his remarks, several of the highest ranking clerics and marjas including, Ayatollah Mesbah Yazdi, Grand Ayatollah Nouri Hamedani, Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi, Grand Ayatollah Safi Golpaygani, Grand Ayatollah Fazel Lankarani and Ayatollah Mirza Javad Tabrizi announced their objection to his decision, calling for urgent cancellation of the order. In Qom, many clerics demonstrated against the president's letter.[25][verification needed][26][verification needed][27][verification needed][28][verification needed][29][verification needed] Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei reversed the decision[30] and 60,000+ mullahs at the grassroots level of sharia courts to national level expressed concerns.</div>
It sucks because Iran usually has some presidents that want to do good but Khamenei has total control of everything so Ahmadinejad is just the face of the country. I don't know why they even bother to elect a president.
Am I the only person who remembers when the United States and Iran were like, best friends? It seems like a million years ago now.
Yes - I do - and I also remember how Osama Bin Laden and the US were best friends...now look what happened...Do you see a pattern?
Dont forget Saddam was our friend too, so was Norega(sp?). and 60 years ago the Japanese and Germans were our worst enemies, now they are our friends. just goes to show you, who your friend is today may stab you tommarow.
