Western ‘Anti-Imperialists’ are always telling us that post-revolutionary Iran is a bona fide democracy.
President Ahmadinajad’s new blog appears to confirm that contention – it’s got a vote counter after all:
Do you think that the US and Israeli intention and goal by attacking Lebanon is pulling the trigger for another word war?
Yes
No
The only trouble is if you click on the results most Iranians – despite decades of government propaganda about the intentions of the Zionist Entity – seem uninterested in providing their President with the ‘correct’ answer.
Update: A reader has emailed complaining that the President’s blog is less than lively reading. Ever eager to please I have passed on his suggestion that it might be improved by a regular dress down Thursday feature.
