UPDATE 1 November: This tribute to the President was originally posted on 7 July, the day after his momentous battle on national television with a Giant Flying Bug. In view of Ahmadinejad’s statement this morning that countries challenging Iran are like “mosquitoes” to be swatted, we are honoured to show again the President’s insect-fighting ability.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad may have reasserted his possibly-legally-elected authority on Iranian national television on Tuesday night, but he lost out in his battle with a mysterious flying creature. (Ahmadinejad will probably not want to be reminded that one of the “foreign enemies” he castigated in the speech, President Barack Obama, successfully vanquished a fly only a few days ago.)
