News Flash: Iranian President may be divinely inspired


The invaluable LGF links to this report that Iranian president Ahmadinejad believes himself to have divine backing. Most recently, he claimed that 'light surrounded him' during his speech at the UN:

"I am not exaggerating when I say they did not blink; it's not an exaggeration, because I was looking," he says. "They were astonished as if a hand held them there and made them sit. It had opened their eyes and ears for the message of the Islamic Republic."

...Since the presidential elections in Iran, many bizarre stories and rumors have circulated about Ahmadinejad. Many of them are related to his devotion to the 12th Imam, also known as Imam Mahdi, who according to Muslims has disappeared and will return at the end of time to lead an era of Islamic justice...


In other news, Ahmadinejad, "lashed out at countries that question Iran's nuclear activities and said they have no right to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear technology."

I've got a queasy feeling in the pit of my stomach that this ain't gonna end well.
