The madness of power
It may sound really absurd that the new President of Iran is always saying weird things revealing an eccentric character who does not hold the slightest regard for not only the international community but also for the establishment within Iran. Logically, one would say that these remarks should at least have some interest for the Iranian nation. It should not be merely the ravings of a sick mind. However, the appling thing is that this is simply isolating the country even further. To many people, it may not be a question any longer whether this chap realy cares about the interests of this nation. What is he avenging these days? Who does he want to fight with? What is with this man that he can hardly ever justify his existence without 'fighting' or 'war'? Could the Iranian politicians ever learn diplomacy? I believe that even in the worst conditions, it is possible to practice 'diplomacy' but this needs a minimum prerequisite which is recognizing even your rival or opponent for 'talks' at least. There is one clear messge in all that this man is saying: we do not recognize any 'dialogue' any more! There is no further 'negotitation'! From now on, you have to play by my rules only, the rules that I have set and I am the only one who believes in it. Yes, rules of the game have changed in Iran. But does he need a bully like Bush to teach him this is not the way to survive in this world? Is he ready to sacrifice everything just to prove his insane theory? One thing is for sure though, the Iranian population, the majority of them, are much more moderate than what he thinks.
