Iran: Ahmadinejad & CBS

Berkeley Forum talks about Ahmadinejad's interview on CBS. We read in this collective blog that during his interview with Mike Wallace from CBS there were a number of other instances when Ahmadinejad had “teacher-like” comebacks. It certainly reminded me of the old school days in Iran. This is because Ahmadinejad in fact was a teacher and a professor prior to entering politics. In his campaign speeches he often boasts about this and uses it as an illustration of how “connected” he is to his people.
