Alright, well i'll admit it i do not like Iran. I do not like the people I do not like the government. (i studied there, i do have experience so let me finish) I was offended by the treatment i received from the locals. I listen to president Ahmadinejad speak on the T.V. about wiping israel off the map and i see him leading ceremonies of people waving nuclear material. Everybody in the western world is basically petrified of this man, though they may not show their fear. But if you take a look at the way that the Iranian government works, you see that the president has utterly no power. UTTERLY no power. He is mearly a figurehead. If iran does get nuclear weapons, Ahmadinejad does not have the power to use them. So just as a note to people who are petrified of this man, realize that he really is just some crazy guy in a midlife crisis spitting off soundbites whenever it is convenient, and nothing more.

I learned that when I watched "The Most Dangerous Country" or whatever that recent documentary on Iran was called...
