Ahmadinejad Plays Chicken

The threats from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad just keep on coming...
From the National Council of Resistance of Iran - Foreign Affairs Committee:

The mullahs' President Ahmadinejad vowed once again on Monday to press forward with the regime's highly controversial nuclear program despite international concerns.

Speaking to a gathering in the southern province of Kohgilouyeh-Bouyer-Ahmad, he said: "Today the Iranian nation is standing firm against the world's bullies and oppressors, and the people will not back down even one step from its right in seeking nuclear technology."

...On Sunday, the mullahs' supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, also urged Iranians to resist "the enemy's threats."

So the madman is staying the course.

Lately, Ahmadinejad has been playing the victim, and framing the nuclear debate as a matter of Iran being pushed around by the oppressors. (The oppressors are the imperialistic United States and its allies.)

WAAAAH! WAAAAH!

Speaking of bullies, threatening to wipe Israel off the map isn't exactly playing nice.

Here is something that received very little attention in the media.
NCRI Press Releases

4,100 protest acts recorded in past Iranian year

Sunday, 26 March 2006

182 executed, 63 newspapers shutdown and 7,000 arrested on political charges in one year

NCRI - According to a report by the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), during the Persian calendar year of 1384 (March 20, 2005 – March 20, 2006), Iranian cities were the scenes of over 4,100 protests, strikes, and clashes between the people and the suppressive forces. These protests involved different sectors of society from white collar workers to teachers and students to political prisoners.

It sounds like civil war could be a possibility in Iran. Iranians have been battling oppression and rising up against Ahmadinejad's regime. There is growing unrest.

Too bad the lib media are too busy rooting for civil war in Iraq to report on the Iranians fighting for freedom.
