Later on Tuesday, the leader of a parliamentary investigation of the matter said it appeared that the minister, Ali Kordan, had lied about his bachelor’s and master’s degrees as well, the ILNA news agency reported.

مگه امید مستضعفان و قبله محرومان جهان، سیدنا و مولانا حضرت رهبر آ سید علی گدا یک شبه زرتی از حجت السلامی به مقام شامخ آیت اللهی ترکمون نزدند؟ حالا نوبت این بدبخت مادر مرده که رسید آسمان تپید؟
گر حکم شود که مست گیرند ، باید که هر آن چه هست گیرند !
این بدبخت رو تو هیچ رژیمی تو هیچ جای دنیا پهن بارش نمیکنند، حالا از صدقه سر این مدرک وزیر کشور شده...اینم چش تنگی داره؟
شما مردم هم خیلی بخیلین ها.......................
The Way Kordan is and the Way IRI is, They are a Perfect Match
by Masoud Kazemzadeh on Mon Oct 06, 2008 09:36 PM PDT"Dr." Ali Kordan is PERFECT for Minister of Interior for the IRI. The primary job of the Minister of Interior in IRI is to fake elections, whereby millions and millions and millons of Iranian citizens vote. Kordan is a perfect match.
