Today, in a rare public display of hardliners’ dismay at Ahmadinejad’s chief of staff, Eskandar Rahim Mashaie, the participants at a large gathering of the veterans of the Islamic revolution and the Iraq war forced Mashaie to stop his speech and leave the podium. The disturbance occurred while Mashaie was introducing Ahmadinejad to the audience. Ahmadinejad then went to the podium and strongly supported Mashaie and compared him to the heroes of the Iranian revolution, Ayatollah Beheshti and the slain former president Rajaie. The audience listened in silence and later expressed their disbelief at Ahmadinejad’s spirited defense of Mashaie. Mr. Mashaie is accused by the hardliners of spreading the idea that the country’s “Iranian identity” is paramount and more important than its “Islamic identity.”

There is no honour amongst thieves. It looks like they are now fighting amongst themselves, as all thieves inevitably do.
"There is no honour amongst thieves. It looks like they are now fighting amongst themselves, as all thieves inevitably do.", so according to this analogy the Zionist entity should have long collapsed! or better still the USA should be a failed state
somebody said, thats democracy... and its not much different than that in Italy and some of the bullshit one hears on the housfloor in the US is much harsher than that.

Good for Iran,
