A few days ago, protests at Tehran University took place. Under the heavy presence of the armed security forces hundreds of Tehran University students were showcasing their public rejection of AhmadiNejad within the university premises - the students were not allowed to leave the University premises but were locked onto campus.
The poster held by the male student asks for the release of three Tehran University students from prison and the one held by the female student asks “We have questions too, why just Columbia?” The question is one asked by Iranians all the time. The Mullah Regime has one window dressing in order to impress the outside world but the reality of what happens inside Iran is always different from what is nicely packaged for outside of Iran.
Ahmadinejad is prepared to answer questions from Columbia students but not from Iranian students. The consequences of asking questions in Iran can lead to imprisonment.

For long the Iranian Mullah’s have shouted “death to America” but Ahmadinejad sampled a slightly inflected version of this slogan, when angry Tehran University students shouted “death to the dictator” against the visiting Ahmadinejad himself.
However, Ahmadinejad had verbal support at hand as some students voiced their support for the cynical man, extolling him “Revolutionary President”. This incidence further highlights the fact that many people in Iran–and abroad–are falling prey to Ahmadinejad’s propaganda, just as many other less credulous people have already foreseen the dangers of such innocence.
Dozens of students scuffled with hard-line supporters of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Monday on the Tehran University campus and chanted “Death to the dictator” ahead of a speech there by the Iranian president. [source]
The war against Ahmadinejad and the evils he stands for will eventually come down to the ease with which we convert the believers( who believe in the flagrant Mullah propaganda) into non-believers.
While at the University, the cynical dictator raised the ire of several students when he promised the release of many detained students, which prompted the students to shoot down his promises and call him a hypocrite.

There has been a lot of speculation about Britain’s stance on the Iran nuclear issue after the baton of power passed on to an avowed Gandhian, Gordon Brown. Now it is widely perceived that British PM Gordon Brown has expressed his readiness for air-strikes on key installations of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards but on the condition that the main ground for such attacks should be countering terrorism rather than obliterating nuclear installations in the Islamic Republic.
The British and American defense officials held discussions in Pentagon over formalising a plan for such air strikes and the role that the British could play in them. All indications point at tactical air strikes–laconic, brisk and accurately destructive–instead of a full-blown assault to wipe-out nuclear infrastructure and, possibly even, topple the Mullah regime.
It is now, almost a foregone conclusion that the British will not forbear from sending their fighter planes into action, if a tactical offensive is launched against Iran to destroy the many terrorist havens inside.
American officials told the New Yorker: “During a secure video conference earlier this summer, the President told Ryan Crocker, the US ambassador to Iraq, that he was thinking of hitting Iranian targets across the border and that the British ‘were on board’.” [source]

The founder of the Persian Empire Cyrus The Great might just loose his last resting place–his tomb of huge historical significance at Pasargadae–to the increased humidity in its vicinity. This increase in humidity, many fear, might be the result of a dam that is under construction 7 kms away from the limestone tomb, which counts amongst the eight of Iran’s world heritage sites. But its significance is lost on the Mullah regime which is selling the dam as an essential lifeline for farmers. Though the dam might be crucial for the farmers in the region, its utility won’t wain if it is shifted away from the vicinity of the tomb. The Mullahs are not ready to listen. Ironically enough, Cyrus was considered to be a very tolerant emperor.
The ill treatment of pre-Islamic history and heritage by the Mullahs that rule Iran has been well documented. Their ignorance of this pre-Islamic history does not emanate from lack of historical knowledge or the resulting lack of cognition to sense historical significance, but it is rooted in the intolerant brand of Islam they practice. They just seem to be oblivious of the culture that flourished in Iran before the advent of Islam.
“This is an illegal project which will harm our historical heritage,” said Mohammad Ali Dadkhah, a lawyer campaigning against the Sivand Dam. [source]
