The humble, humble President Ahmedinejad….what a guy
The FoxNewsTV (USA) asked the Iranian President Ahmedinejad, ‘When you look into the mirror in the morning what do you say to yourself’?
He answered: I see the person in the mirror and tell him ‘Remember’ you are no more than a small servant, ahead of you today is the heavy responsibility, and that is to serve the Iranian nation’.
Ahmedinejad, the Iranian President who astonished many when he first reached to the office of the Presidency by donating all the high valued Iranian carpets to one of the mosques in Tehran by replacing them with the low cost ordinary carpets. He observed that there was a huge extravagant lounge for receiving and welcoming the VIPs and he ordered it to be closed and asked the protocol office to arrange for an ordinary room only with wooden chairs.
On many instances he joins the cleaning staff of the municipality for cleaning the streets in the area where his home and the Presidency are located.
Under his authority whenever he appoints any minister to his post he gets a signed document from him with many points particularly highlighting that he shall remain poor and that his personal and his relatives accounts will be watched and the day he leaves the ministry shall be with dignity, and therefore it is not lawful for him or his relatives to take any advantage of his office. First of all he declared himself for all the ‘Big’ wealth and the property he owned was a Peugeot 504 car, model 1977, an old small house inherited from his father 40-years ago in one of the poorest zones in Tehran . His accounts with a zero balance and the only money comes in to his a/c was from his salary from the university as a lecturer with an amount of US$ 250 only.
For your information the President still lives in that same house. This is all what he owns; the president of one of the world’s important countries; strategically, economically, politically and with regard to its oil and defense. He even doesn’t take his personal salary with the argument that all the wealth belongs to the nation and he is the safeguard over it.
One of the things that impressed the staff at the presidency is the bag the President brings with him every day, which contains his breakfast; some sandwiches or bread with olive oil and cheese prepared by his wife and eats and enjoys it with all happiness.
One of the other things he changed was his personal carrier ‘the President’s Aircraft’ to a cargo aircraft in order to save the spending from the public treasury and he ordered that he will be flying with the ordinary airline in the economy class. He organizes meetings every now and then with all the ministers to know their activities and efficiency and he closed down the office of the Manager of the president and any minister can enter to his office without any permission. He also stopped the welcome ceremonies like the red carpet, the photo session or any personal advertisement or respect of any kind while visiting any place in the country.
Whenever he has to stay in any of the hotels he asks them to make sure not to give him a room with any big bed because he doesn’t like to sleep on beds but rather likes to sleep on the floor on a simple mattress with a blanket..
Refer to some of the attached photographs which also confirm the above. The Iranian president is sleeping in the guest room of his house after getting away from his special guards who follow him wherever he goes and photo is taken by his small brother according to the Wifaq Newspaper which published this photo and the next day the photo was published in most of the world’s newspapers and magazines and particularly the Americans. During the prayer you can see that he is not sitting in the first row. And the final photo is of his dining room where the president is busy eating his simple meal.
MAY GOD BLESS HIM

Thanks for posting what shows a point of view which is very different from what we perceive here. This might interest you. Pedestrian has gathered and translated all the claims about the "rigged election" arguments in this post.

Strangely Robert Dreyfuss at The Nation has not yet featured on the Iranian elections.

Given his “Hostage To Khomeini” (1979) account of the British/Muslim Brotherhood subversion of the Shah’s regime one would have thought he would be eminently capable of an acute assessment of current events in Iran.

Not according to WSW.org wherein a class-based analysis by Joe Kishore fingers Dreyfuss for being fully on-message with the corporate media spin on Iran’s Green colour-coded revolution that designates the election-100% rigged.

For Leslie Gelb at CFR organ,Foreign Affairs,the Iranian elections were “brazen thievery” and will be followed by a crack-down by way of back-lash against the reformists to the tune of a mild reaction in Washington.And for Gelb even after the crackdown the hard-liners will be keen to open the country’s economic doors to the West a.s.a.p.

Never mind that dollar is about to be dumped by the BRIC nations!Iran will still grovel at the US feet!

Meanwhile in the UK similar arrogance re-the issue of religious minorities in Iran,particularly the Bahai our traditional trojan horse allies,has been recently raised by members in the Lords.With the usual pious enunciations m’noble lords,including Rothschild placeman,Malloch-Brown intoned on the difficulties the UK and EU had in persuading the Iranian leadership to accept external entreaties on behalf of its religious minorities.

Thus there seems to be in place a twin-track Anglo-US move to destabilize Iran by the usual installation of trojan horses and proxies among the clerical leaders and the “reformist opposition”.

In other words the situation is little different from that described by Dreyfuss back in 1979.This was when he was when he was thoroughly off-message and firmly ensconced in the Lyndon LaRouche EIR offices.

Whereas the contamination by association of Mousari with Rafzanjani’s corruption and wealth has featured prominently in commentary on the elections many observers have overlooked the fact that many of the richest of the elite are the crypto-Jews in the hard-line camp.

Habibullah Asgaroladi is of Persian Jewish extraction a billionaire not averse to whipping up a bit of Islamophobia in Western capitals.

Likewise look out for Ali Ramin the Ahmadinejad adviser behind the Holocaust conference PR debacle.

Then there’s Kamal Kharazi,former foreign minister (1997-2005),who while Iranian minister to the UN (1989-97) spent a lot of time in the Sufi reading room there.

The Sufi like the Bahai are another religious minority within Iran who the British have found use for during the long history of Anglo subversion there.

To their credit , the Iranian students done an excellent job in 1979.

Ahmaddinijad , to his credit , has brought more Iranians into further education than any previous leader , a rate that includes 50% Woman, especially in areas neglected by Tehranis, so maybe he understands the revolution and its lessons better than those who are trying to grab power via facebook bearing neo-liberal gifts.

As I mentioned even before election both Ahmadinejad and Mousavi are approved by supreme leader because both of them endorse political theocratic dictatorship of IRI. The Iranians who voted for Mousavi are not necessarily his supporters. They just found the election as only venue to show their rage against dictators.

What we need now in Iran is a leader like Dr. Mohammad Mossadegh (the first democratic elected PM in Iran). I keep receiving messages from Prince Reza Pahlavi’s FB site to support him as a leader for democratic Iran. They even equate his leadership to Dr. Mossadegh. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Prince Reza Pahlavi is the one who considers Israel (with history of ethnic cleansing and oppression of Palestinians) and Turkey (with its article 301) as only democracies in the region, and his supporters equate him to Dr. Mossadegh. This is really an insult!

Political theocracies like IRI and Zionist Israel are based on myths of their holy books and religious laws, and therefore, they are not reformable. The Iranian students tried that once by voting for Khatami (a reformist clergy) but he betrayed them.
