Iran leaders deliberately slap USA
Reader comment on item: Assessing the Iranian Election
Submitted by Angel (Indonesia), Jun 14, 2009 at 14:00
Chose Ahmadinejad, Iran leader Khamenei probably wants to show off that Iran still have a strong will agains USA. This show off is aimed to gain more attention to the world, that Iran is the only country who even turn off the hand of Obama. I think it is a very bold move, but with the cost of his own people's supression!!!
