World: Iran president Ahmadinejad: You can’t mess up my supreme friendship

  • Your efforts will bear no fruit. This road is closed for those devils who dream about harming our relationship. Their dream will be buried along with them.
  • Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad • Regarding his relationship with Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, which has gotten slightly strained lately due to Ahmadinejad’s delay in following Khamenei’s orders to fire vice president Esfandiar Rahim-Mashaei for being sympathetic to Israel. Ahmadinejad says that critics won’t change their relationship. Someone’s getting a little defensive, eh? • source

World: Khamenei: We won’t budge, no matter how much pressure we get

  • I had insisted and will insist on implementing the law on the election issue. Neither the establishment nor the nation will yield to pressure at any cost.
  • Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei • In comments about the hard-line stance his country will take against the protesters who have so gathered the world’s attention. In other news, Mir Hossein Mousavi’s wife has asked the country to free political prisoners arrested during the protests. Let’s hope they do. • source

World: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of Iran plays his Supreme Leader card

  • I will not give in to illegal demands. If we break the law, we will have to do it in every election and no election would be immune. This is wrong. This is the beginning of dictatorship.
  • Ayatollah Ali Khamenei • Who called on the protesters – you know, a million strong yesterday – to call off peaceful protests supporting Mir Hossein Mousavi or face the consequences. Who does this jerk think he is? Note the twisted language in this message. By the way, he also trashed on the Western media again. • source

World: Iran’s presidential election is today, and the polls are packed

  • I am hearing about a vast participation of people, and I hear there are even gatherings at night. This shows the people’s awareness.
  • Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei • Speaking about the huge response the presidential election in Iran has had. Millions are at the polls today, responding to the hard-line politics of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, which many claim have affected the country’s stability. Mir Hussein Moussavi, an opposition candidate, is the likely victor. By the way, the president of Iran has less power than Khamenei, but they do have plenty of say over domestic matters. • source

U.S., World: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei thinks Obama is full of it on Iran

  • He insulted the Islamic Republic of Iran from the first day. If you are right that change has come, where is that change? What is the sign of that change? Make it clear for us what has changed.
  • Ayatollah Ali Khamenei • Iran’s supreme leader, on Barack Obama’s well-thought-out olive branch to the people of Iran. The Ayatollah, simply put, thinks Obama isn’t being honest. • source
