Ahmadinejad says election rivals use Hitler tactics
Edited on Wed Jun-10-09 07:36 AM by JI7
Source: washington post

Ahmadinejad said his rivals had broken laws against insulting the president.

"No one has the right to insult the president, and they did it. And this is a crime. The person who insulted the president should be punished, and the punishment is jail," he told supporters outside Tehran's Sharif University.

"Such insults and accusations against the government are a return to Hitler's methods, to repeat lies and accusations ... until everyone believes those lies," Ahmadinejad said.

Mousavi accuses Ahmadinejad of isolating Iran with his vitriolic attacks on the United States, his combative line on Iran's nuclear policy and his questioning of the Holocaust.

27. A gift from AWOL idiot Bush.
When Bush declared Iran part of the idiotic "axis of evil" and ramped up the dumbass rhetoric, he gave the fundies in Iran a real shot in the arm.

16. He seems confused...
it's governments cracking down on the people that's fascist, not people criticizing their government.

Far-right leaders everywhere, messing up our one and only world. Argh.

17. wait wasn't he a Holocaust denier a few short months ago?
Now he accuses others of using the tactics of Hitler.

Cutting and pasting facts is what he does, just like our last American president.

29. We got an ironic chuckle over his complaining...
