I hear alot of people here in Egypt say that he is "The Man" he could face Bush and not to obey to him .But I think he overstepped the limit by saying he will remove a country from Earth ... but he is still Brave in my opinion and he can be a good Leader I think in the soon future.

I think it's important to remember that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has no significant power in creating the country's policies.  \n\nThe President of Iran is democraticaly elected, but can only run for election if approved by a twelve member panel called the Guardian Council.  \nThe members of the Guardian Council are appointed by a Supreme Leader, a religious official.  \nBesides nominating presidential candidates, the Guardian Coucil also approves candidates to the Assembly of Experts.  The Assembly are religious leaders, or mujtahids.  They are responsible for supervising and electing the Supreme Leader.  \n\nThe President of Iran has some power to influence foreign policy, but not on the level of the American president.  His position would be analogous to the US Secretary of State.  He is the representative of Iran's people, their voice to the rest of the world, not the leader of their government.

Forget about the politics & people.  \n\nA radioactive dust bowl comes to mind if Ahmadinejad doesn't pull his head out of his *ss.

He's incorrect, but soundly mentally stable.  It appears that he's exceedingly angry at western Europe, the United States, and Israel all at once.  He's chosen rhetoric that will bring him popular acclaim in his country, and he had little to lose internationally since Iran had already been closely watched and often frowned upon by the international community.  He simply made a statement he thought would gain attention, and he's succeeded.  He'll stand by it, too, in order to increase the outlandish effect.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the elected president of Iran as of August 3rd 2005. He rules under the authority of Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei (appointed in 1979 by former Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ruhollah Khomeini, father of the Islamic Revolution in Iran and spiritual leader of the Shi'a Muslims).\nSince taking office, Ahmadinejad pushed forward a series of social and economic measures that were unpopular with the views of the Western powers, among those being making Iran independent from oil resources (by building a nuclear power plant complex), move which attracted heavy criticism from UN and EU which accused Iran of pursuing building nukes (accusation which hasn't been proven).

Nice ideal, but absolutely impossible. If I was an Iranian Leader, I wouldn't even think about it until I saw several American leaders convicted & successfully impeached. He is well aware our leaders speak with forked tongues.\n\nBy the way, what about this alleged nuclear weapons development? Is it any more real than what was in Iraq? It's the same people saying it, folks. Think. They were never found in Iraq because they never existed. You can hide a bomb, or several bombs, where they are difficult to find. Not true for the facilities that make them. Iran has a facility to enrich uranium for power plants.But nothing has been found suggesting bomb grade uranium, or the facilities to make it. And they are under constant inspection. think.

I have several Iranian friends. I find them all to be genuine, helpful, friendly, honest and lovely people. And all of them are happy not to be living under the present Iranian administration.\n\nIran has always historically been an important power and, next to China, it has arguably the oldest continuous classical culture in the world. One day they will be able to take their due place in the international arena as a great nation with much to contribute.\n\nOf course, they'll have to change their government before that can happen.

Iran's president IS nuts, basically. He's spouting nonsense for internal consumption and hasn't completely understood yet that the international media picks it up and runs with it. Iran may or may not really be nuclear capable, but the ayatollahs who really run the country want their populace to think so. In any case, don't bomb them...yet.

I might be wrong but he is Iran religious leader.

Ahmadinejad's election is the product of a number of factors, the most important of which are the domestic failures of the reformists in power prior to him and the US invasion of Iraq.\n\nHis strategy regarding nuclear arms is a smart one.  He has seen that the international community has no ability to enforce nuclear non-proliferation policies (as exemplified by the non-response to India and Pakistan's unsanctioned entry into the Nuclear Club).  He has also seen that seemingly irrational dictators get a wide latitude as well in the international community (Kim Jong-il).  As long as a leader makes clear that he'd sacrifice as much of his population as needed to damage attackers it gives the US pause.  Americans do not take military casualties lightly.  We would not condone a prospective bloodbath.\n\nSo, Ahmadinejad knows that the US does not have the political will to support another conflict in that region.  The US does not have any difficulty dealing with the military aspects of invading Iran.  Frankly we could probably topple the government with less effort than it took to take out Saddam's regime.  After all, Iraq under Saddam was the greatest military power in the Middle East.  But with Bush's approval rating in the toilet and international opinion against him, he could not "win the peace" once the Islamist government was toppled.\n\nInternal agitators, like the bloggers and students who have been speaking out against the excesses of the government, and the Israelis are, in my opinion, the most likely to be able to restrain Ahmadinejad.  The Europeans are worthless.  Russia and China are happy to encourage his efforts.

Agree with answer number 2. His son lives in the USA and is very active in promoting Persia, passive resistance, and supports a democratic revolution in Iran.

I think Mr. Ahmadinejad is 100% correct in his assessment of Mr. Bush and his Presidency.  I read the entire letter and agreed with most of it.  I probably agree with him more than I agree with my own President.  I still think it is scary for Iran to have nuclear weapons and hope they will work within the international parameters for nuclear energy.

It's not that secret, you can find a copy at\nhttp://hosted.ap.org/specials/interactives/_documents/ahmadinejad0509.pdf\n\nIt's a bit long-winded, but worth a read. He makes some interesting points, but they are wasted on dubya, who wants Iran do do whatever he says, but refuses to discuss anything with them or listen to anything they have to say.

Mr Khamenei. its simple question

Khatami was a moderate and tried to get Iran to be more normal.  The current leader, President Ahmadinejad is an extremist that will lead his country into a lot of problems.  He has made comments that threatens to make the Middle East even more unstable than what it is right now.  Iran is moving forward with development of nuclear power.  Officially the want nuclear power to generate electricity, but they have a very large oil supply.  Hmmm... what do you think they want nuclear power for?
