The other Iranian moderate

Posted on 03/10/2009 by SnoopyTheGoon

I have chosen this headline, since I have already posted on one such moderate in Hashemi Rafsanjani – a moderate murderer.

The man who is much on the agenda these days, mainly as a moderate alternative to Mahmoud the Mad is Mohammad Khatami:

Khatami had run on a platform of liberalization and reform. During his two terms as president, Khatami advocated freedom of expression, tolerance and civil society, constructive diplomatic relations with other states including those in the European Union and Asia, and an economic policy that supported a free market and foreign investment.

Pure angel. Anyway, here he appears again:

Notice – he is the one not smiling. Must be a moderate then…

    He has the look of an inquisitor about him. “A shame about that poor heretic, but he brought it on himself by his stubbornness, and anyway, we have saved his soul.” Doesn’t he just look the part?

    Monster.
