Iranian Truth - حقيقت ايرانى » Ahmadinejad Popularity Poll in Iran
A very interesting view on the current opinions on President Ahmadinejad. He is an interesting character, economically illiterate of course, but then, hey, people get the leaders they deserve.Iran is so complicated, last week's economist ran a good overview of this amazing country. I also chat frequently on the Yahoo Professors Room and quite a lot of professors, teachers and graduate students from Iran participate there. One thing is for sure, they are extremely nationalistic and patriotic in nature. Something that is quite in common with the turkish particpants from that region. Funny how the other arab nations arent as much, no? Also ironical is that historically, both the ottoman and safavid empires collapsed partially because of their emnity towards each other.Oh!, another thing in common is their lovely treatment of minorities, but now I am drifting, lol. Anyway, check out some previous posts on Iran
