Ever been to Iran? Most people in Tehran have cell phones and satellite dishes that get music videos and CNN. Ahmadinejad is being cautiously applauded there (even by people who don't like him) for his domestic agenda, which includes investing Iranian money in the country's infastructure, instead of stashing it in Swiss banks (obviously, their government is still not doing nearly enough to bring jobs, culture, and technology to the people, but it's funny that you're cutting down Ahmadinejad in the same paragraph as criticizing Iran for domestic problems that he's actually combated).

(I don't blame you for not knowing any of this about Iran, because if you watch the news media, you'd think that Ahmadinejad was the father of Neo-Nazism. I'm just saying I think it's wise for us to know all the facts about a country before we starting lobbing nuclear weapons at them.)
