Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, president of Iran (2005 ) »
The ultra-conservative Mahmoud “Johnny” Ahmadinejad was elected president of Iran in 2005, ending the two-term reign of the so-called reformist president Mohammad Khatami. Ahmadinejad quickly proved that he intended to be nothing like his predecessor, spouting fiery rhetoric about the destruction of Israel and and questioning the existence of the Holocaust. He’s also been unyielding in his defense of Iran’s right to obtain enriched uranium — the first step to building an atomic bomb — despite enormous international outcry. Of course, since Iran is hardly a true democracy, Ahmadeinejad’s carefully stage-managed elections have been seen as little more than an effort by Iran’s true ruling clique of fundamentalist imams to consolidate their own power at a time when fundamentalism is rapidly falling out of fashion with the Iranian people themselves.
