Just when we thought we've heard the last about Iranian's protesting their President,(you guessed it) we haven't!!
Iranian President went to give a speech commemorating the country's liberation from Iraq (after an 18 month occupation during the Iraq-Iran war) in 1982. Instead of the crowd shouting praises or even support, they shouted "We are jobless." Hmmm, what would happen if the mayor or senator in your town said he wanted to have a word with you about environmental concerns and you shouted " I AM JOBLESS!!" Maybe he'd give you a job as a park ranger. Ahmadinejad?? Not so much. I don't know what they thought they'd get out of that protest other than jail sentences and (of course) publicity...but it worked right?

You cannot blame the Iranian people for dreaming. Who knows, the "kuku" president may wake up and join the land of the "normal", actually find his senses and do the right thing. Hey, there is no crime in dreaming. Sweet dreams Iranian and hope the dreams come true. Power to the people.
