BBC: Iranian officials have denied that President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was targeted in an assassination attempt. A conservative Iranian website had said an explosive device was thrown at his convoy in the western city of Hamedan, where he was to deliver a speech, but later removed the report from its site. State-run Press TV said "no such attack had happened", and officials said the blast was caused by a firework. Mr Ahmadinejad went ahead with his speech at a football stadium. "It was a firecracker, and a statement will be released soon," an official in the president's media office told the Agence France-Presse news agency. Al Alam, a state-run Arabic-language TV channel, reported that the firecracker was set off to cheer the president. The Khabaronline website said the president's car was about 100 metres (330ft) away from the explosion, which "caused a lot of smoke", but later removed the article from its website >>>

At some point ALL OF US need to condemn ALL VIOLENCE in Iranian
by Hoshang Targol on Thu Aug 05, 2010 09:17 AM PDTpolitics and culture, be it against our foes or friends.
"Comrade," says: " Our jubilant reaction to the news of his assassination attempt is a sign of victory for the IRI which has succeeded in embedding violence in our collective psyche."
But unfortunately this inclination towards violence goes much deeper and wider then we might think. One could correctly argue that such tendency towards violence as a method of solving politivcal disputes is by now part and parcel of overwhelming majority of political forces in Iran, from Right to Left, ( with a very few exceptions).
Untill and unless we as a nation are able to institutionalize , non-violent, civilized methods of solving our political disputes, we are FOREVER caught in this hell, we're currently stuck in!
P.S. The only person who could pull off such an "action" inside Iran currently is Rafsanjani, and as such this does not bode well, at all.

True, or false

I personally wish all the IRI authority the best of health and safety until we see them before a judge and jury, with the aid of counsel and answer for their actions.

It's so embarassing and very primitive. And of course, it will be in the news and everyone will ask about it. Another day of explaining to people that Iran is not just this....I'm telling everyone:
"There is only one conclusion, he is very ghodratmand/estrong, much like Spiderman, Rambo or James Bond. He came out of the smoke, with a cape and said, "I'm Ahmadinjead, Mahmood Ahmadinejad""
This sentence made me laugh so hard:
احمدینژاد گفت: «این صهیونیستهای احمق آدم فرستادند، مجهز کردند که بیایند مرا ترور کنند.»

I don't know. The IRI thugs could have used this to blame the West with conspiracies like they always do and possibly to attack any opposition . On the other hand, this would make Ahmadinejad appear hated and weak, as if he isn't already. Wha's an evil regime to do?
Too bad

Since it happened in Iran they may deny it even happened!
by Anonymouse on Wed Aug 04, 2010 04:37 AM PDTLike at first they denied there are any post election protests. Only after photographic and video evidence showed up on youtube they called it a "staged coup"!
If it had happened outside Iran his cronies would have staged a Tasoua Ashoura in Iran!
