Does Ahmadinejad really think that 300 is a deliberate attempt by the US FedGov to undermine Iran? Or does he say it even though he knows it's a lie?
Ahmadinejad scares me. He has a history of making inflammatory statements that are obviously false. It doesn't matter how preposterous his statements are, because his target audience is the semi-educated Iranian population who don't know any better. Either he has no qualms about lying through his teeth in an effort to bring down the west, or he sincerely believes what he says is true (which makes him inconceivably stupid and uninformed). I'm not sure which possibility is more dangerous. I guess it doesn't really matter, as they're both awfully dangerous given that Ahmadinejad is in such a powerful position.
