Evidently, he has something to say to us<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has written a letter to the American people that will be released at U.N. headquarters in New York on Wednesday, a state newspaper reported.<\/p>\n

The newspaper gave no details of the letter, an apparent attempt by the firebrand president to reach out to Americans over the head of their government.<\/p>\n

The state-run newspaper Iran reported the letter in bold type on its front page, saying “the five-page letter to the American people will be released by Iran’s representative at the United Nations today.”<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, Ahmadinejad said he was planning to write a letter to Americans.<\/p>\n

“Many American people asked me to talk to them in order to explain the views of the Iranian people<\/span>,” Ahmadinejad told reporters, referring to his visit to New York to attend the U.N. General Assembly session in September 2005.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Will he be honest and say that the Iranian people want to annihilate Israel and destroy our influence in the region? Or will he try to placate us with lies of trying to stabilize the region?
\n(via<\/a>)
\nThe anticipation is killing me. Oh, well back to the Parable of the Unjust Judge.<\/p>\n
