Ahamdinejad’s Iran: A Nation Of Butchers
BLOOD on their hands:
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Highlighting a common touch that has become a trademark of his presidency, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said he keeps his finger on Iran’s economic pulse by talking to his butcher, newspapers reported on Saturday.
“We have hardworking shopkeepers in our neighbourhood from whom I get important economic information because they are living among the people,” Ahmadinejad, the son of a blacksmith, was quoted by Iran’s Sharq daily as saying.
