Iranian Crowds Chant ' Death To Ahmadinejad! '

Trouble in paradise for Mahmoud? Haha. This IS very encouraging - Iranian crowds (mostly young people) were out in the streets in Iran and yes, you read that right, the chants were for the death of Ahmadinejad - nope, not Bush, not Cheney, not Rice or even Olmert. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, President of the backward lands of Persia may be seeing his first wave of discontent.
Here's a portion of the article here from UPI:

In the western city of Ahvaz, angry mobs declared "Freedom is our legitimate right" while demonstrators in the western city of Sanandaj shouted "Death to (Iranian President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad," Ynetnews reported Wednesday.

Now, the police were out in force and obviously, this isn't something to get too carried away with but the fact that the people were crying out for "freedom" is very interesting and at the same time, we all know how dire the Iranian economy has been...sanctions or no sanctions. Perhaps the economy spiralling downwards will help the next protest crowd in Iran get larger and larger.

Nothing would make me happier than to see this noxious little pip squeak get run out of office and be sent to mop floors at the local mosque.
