Iran election: Economy is the main issue followed by Foreign Policy |
|
this is from AlJazeera. Ahmadinejad is the McCain equivalent and Mousavi is the Obama of the Iranian election. It is beginning to look like a Mousavi victory (unless fraud occurs). Marwan Bishara is saying that a Mousavi victory may harden Khatemei..we'll see. Marwan Bishara is a Palestinian writer and editorialist and a lecturer at the American University of Paris and the author of Palestine/Israel: Peace or Apartheid . He is a frequent guest of AlJazeera.

1. Could you imagine if McCain was President and how he would be interacting with Ahmadinejad... |
|
They would probably be threatening to nuke each other ten times over by now and this election would most likely have gone to Ahmadinejad.

2. Thank God that McCain and Palin are relegated to oblivion (yes, Palin is irrelevant |
|
even though the Neo-cons are hoping that she is not as stupid as America thinks)

3. Ahmadinejad was partly elected in the first place because of Bush |
|
They wanted someone who wouldn't cave.
