Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has, during his tenure as President of Iran, proven himself to be an apparent madman and an anti-Semite to the extreme.
Many people have theorized that the Mullahs secretly disliked Ahmadinejad and considered him too brash and over-the-top in his rhetoric.
Now, we have confirmation that that theory is simply not accurate:
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Backs Ahmadinejad for Another Term in Office
BBC: Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has urged President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to prepare for a second term in office amid fierce criticism.
The ayatollah praised the president for "standing up" to the West and predicted he would be returned to office for four more years at the 2009 election.
Critics accuse Mr Ahmadinejad, a foreign policy hardliner, of failing to control inflation and unemployment.
Such public backing from the ayatollah for a president is rare, analysts say.
Mr Ahmadinejad, who won the 2005 presidential election, has caused controversy abroad by calling for the destruction of Israel and pressing ahead with uranium enrichment.
