Iran president had `religious vision' during UN speech


Gareth Smyth and Najmeh Bozorgmehr in Tehran

FT - A leading website in Iran has published a transcript and video recording of President Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad claiming to have felt "a light" while addressing world leaders at the United Nations in New York in September.

Messiah complexes and whatnot

Stygius - There are many interesting bits in Seymour Hersh's latest. This passage, on President Bush's evident messiah complex, is the most blog-friendly, I suppose . . . (More at the link.)

I think it's probably best to keep these two "Chosen Ones" apart. Don't you?

wha?



"I felt it myself, too, that suddenly the atmosphere changed and for 27-28 minutes the leaders could not blink," the transcript continues. "I am not exaggerating...because I was looking. All the leaders were puzzled, as if a hand held them and made them sit. They had their eyes and ears open for the message from the Islamic Republic."

Is this loon serious?  Blink?

They might not have been able to get out of their seats because they were SLEEPING, people.  I'm really sure the representative from Uruguay had his eyes and ears listening intently for this loon's balogna.
