Iran's President Heckled by Students

At his son's Alma Mater, no less. Story from NewsMax:

Iranian students staged a rare demonstration against President Mahmamoud Ahmadinejad on Monday, lighting a firecracker and burning his photograph in the audience as he delivered a speech at their university, the state news agency said...

The disturbances began when a group of students started chanting during the speech in a hall at the university. Then they held up a picture of the president, upside down, and set it alight, the agency reported. Finally, the students set off a firecracker.
Ahmadinejad supporters in the audience began to chant in response, silencing the protesters. Ahmadinejad then continued with his speech. There was no report of the authorities arresting any of the protesters.


I see this as the beginning of the end for this Dictator. This incident is just in time for my latest Oped Nukes Won't Save Iran.
