Ayatollah Ahmadinejad
I thought the days of Iranian wingnuttery were over post-Khomeini, but it turns out Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a worthy successor to the old nutcase. Just a few hours before the latest suicide bombing in Israel, Ayatollah Ahmadinejad began ranting and raving about the need to wipe Israel off the map. Now, this is the sort of language one expects from the Bin Laden crew, but from an elected head of state? The head of state of a country that's desperately trying to justify its need for nuclear fuel/weapons, at that? Maybe India should reconsider its friendship with its civilizational ally until its leaders learn to be civilized?
