    In a move that some see as a possible return to politics, Iran’s former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad launched his official website on Sunday (1 February), ahead of next year’s legislative elections.
    Including the website, Ahmadinejad.ir, a Google+ page and an Instagram account were also launched for Ahmadinejad.
    Ahmadinejad is seen flashing a giant smile on his website with a slogan reading: “We will come soon.”

    Cheers

I suspect that outside the protected speech of Parliament, she could be charged with hate speech by some multi-culti-dhimmi Council apparatchik for that same speech in public.

  6. So were it not that a lot of Jews live there – Israel wouldn’t be a problem at all? OK – now I understand it fully.
