Ahmadinejad Plays Blame Game

The Iranian government runs a crooked election and murder protesters. The people have become disillusioned with the government. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is saying this is the fault of Europe and President Barack Obama.

On Thursday, Mr. Ahmadinejad said: “We expected the British and European countries to make those kinds of comments. But we were not expecting Mr. Obama, who has talked about change, to fall in the same trap and follow the same path that Bush did.”

Mr. Ahmadinejad did not stop there. “I hope you avoid interfering in Iran’s affairs and express your regret in a way that the Iranian people find out about it,” he said.

If a meteor hit Iran would that be the fault of Obama and the West? It wouldn't surprise me if Ahmadinejad tried to spin it that way.
