Mahmoud "ان" Ahmadinejad

I would like to see his smug murderous face on the end of a pike.

and for heaven's sake, if you are going to be an evil dictator, at least have a name we can actually remember, pronounce and spell.

How can he not leave space for creative people like you to come up with a proper name for him? We call him "ان" by the way. No offence to the real "ان" out there.

He seems to have had a blast in NY though.

"ان" is Farsi equivalent of S%*&. Apology for the embarrassing language. But frankly this is what we prefer to call him.

Dont have IPA signifiers, so I am doing my best in here. It is "an" and "a" will go like "a" in "cat". A little stress on "n" doest hurt as well.

I can see the change on the thread title. ان, A.K.A Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would make better sense. Just trying to help demiurge and the assistant out.

Do you have any opinion about the Tunisian historiographer, Ibn Khaldun?
