An Iranian newspaper is doing something that seems unthinkable in Iran. It's criticizing President Ahmadinejad.
That, in itself, is newsworthy, but check out the article on CNN. What's really amazing about this is that they are criticizing him for attacking conservatives. Why is this, the most hard-line of dictators, being criticized for attacking nationalists? Because he's that much more conservative than they are.
That's right - the conservatives in Iran are calling for more moderation in Iran's dealings with the west over its nuclear program, but Ahmadinejad is calling them traitors. When you're more reactionary than your own reactionaries, isn't it time to examine your position?
