Currently: Bursts of gunfire were reported as Tehranis took to their rooftops to shout protests under cover of darkness, but for the first time in a week there were no big demonstrations. That was partly because Tehran’s streets were flooded with police and Basiji militiamen, and partly because the protesters were still reeling from the previous day’s brutality.  Read the rest of this story…

Hundreds of thousands of Iranian protesters defied authorities Monday and marched to Tehran’s Freedom Square, as the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader ordered an investigation into allegations of voter fraud, a move the opposition described as little more than an attempt to dampen anger over the reelection of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.  Read the rest of the story…

Bio: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (born October 28, 1956) is the sixth and current President of the Islamic Republic of Iran. He became president on August 6, 2005 after winning the 2005 presidential election by popular vote. Before becoming president, he was the mayor of Tehran. He is the highest directly elected official in the country; however, according to Article 113 of Constitution of Iran, he has less total power than the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of Iran and has the final word in all aspects of foreign and domestic policies.

    I suggest to any person who wants to know him better, just read his real statements, his real beliefs, his real pictures. you should know that everywhere in the country he goes there are thousands of people who loves him and support him, wait to see him for many hours, he is really popular among the majority of iranians, because he is courageous, he has helped the poor people, he loves his country and try for its developement, you should know that everything you know about him is just propaganda, they are not true, he really wants justice and peace for all of the human beings. i don't want to convince you about him but i want you to know the truth and then judge somebody. i should say that he has no role is suppression after election, just like now that he has no role in the behavior of police to unveil women, because he said he strongly opposed to these actions, but you should know that he is not the only person in the country who decide about these affairs. he has a really brilliant ideas about human beings. i offer his official site, www.president.ir, to read about his real ideas about different things. believe me, he is not the one your media want to induce.

    He would make more sense if he were a comedian:

    1. No gays in Iran

    2. Holocaust was a hoax

    3. He won the election legally

    4. Iran will have nukes (like the Israelis will ever let that happen)

    He is a funny man. If you cannot remember how to pronounce his last name, think "I'm a dinner jacket."
  • Of course the elections are faked. I admired these people fighting for their freedom.
    The battle should continue ! The justice would win !
  • Stacy
    We all know he did not win this election fair and sqaure but REALLY was there any doubt that he would behave this way? This is the man who said the holocaust was not real.. of course he is going to do whatever the heck he wants to. I am not sure why this is a surprise. Maybe that people had hope? I am tired of seeing the blood shed and it makes me sad. I understand that the people are fighting for chaneg but withouth te hassitance of military force a coup will not occur.

    While our economy is suffering this terrible man is rolling in money. Our need for oil causes him to become more powerful and further keep his people down. His people accept him because we know no better. We need to find new ways to power up and stop giving these fascist leaders power.
  • vino
    What he says about gays and lesbians is disgusting. You are born that way! His country is so full of hatred because of his dictatorship that the people can't even be free and come out and be who they are. M.A is a terrible human being and his country should be ashamed to have him representing them!
  • stacy
    Having sensationalist ideas just to get attention! That's what describes this idiot! We need to be careful. With his political views on Jews and Gays he may turn out to be the biggest threat this country has seen yet!
