Ahmadinejad is beginning to throw in even the kitchen sink as he is dogged by the growing popularity of Mir Hossein Mousavi, now being backed by Iran’s former reformist president Mohammad Khatami. Yesterday he started making derogatory comments about Mousavi’s wife, who has a wide following of her own.

Words for Acts

Of all the enemies of public liberty, war is perhaps the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies. From these proceed debt and taxes. And armies, debts and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few...No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.

James Madison, 1795
