FUNNY IF YOU KNOW FARSI? A friend forwarded me this YouTube video forwarded to him by a professional contact in the Iranian government, Atom Ahmadinejad, which is apparently making the rounds in Iran, and which mocks the president's nuclear aspirations to the tune of an Iranian children's song. No word on who made the video, or where it was made (it could have been any place from Los Angeles to Tehran). Since it's the second one in the Atom Ahmadinejad series, though, and can also be found on a YouTube page full of videos mocking the mullahs and Ahmadinejad and celebrating those who lost their lives fighting for democracy, I'm guessing it's part of somebody's propaganda war efforts.
