The Iranian President blogs

Here is something interesting, especially given current affairs.  The Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is blogging.  His blog is written in Farsi and has Arabic, English and French translations.

Somehow I just don’t see Ahmadinejad uploading photos from his family holiday to this blog …
