It's true, and the CIA is reading it regularly according to a new report. Seems our country's spooks have found a gold mine in blogs and MySpace pages as well as YouTube postings that are actually valuable for intelligence. And you thought YouTube was only good to watch kids break bones on skateboards!
Taking a gander at Ahmadinejad's blog I was surprised how conversational it is. Very much lke the kind of thing I might write, minus the Islamic propaganda.
Take this sincere Christmas Greeting from the Iranian President:
My sincere congratulations to everyone for the Glorious and Auspicious Birthday of Divine Prophet - confirmed and authenticated by Gabriel, the angel of Divine revelation - the Obedient of Almighty God,Jesus Christ, the Messiah (peace be upon Him)
He was a messenger of peace, devotion and love based upon monotheism and justice. He was raised in His Mother’s hand – Virgin Mary (peace be upon her) – that Almighty God stood her as impeccable and exalted her above the women of the world. The Mother and the Son that in the Divine Sight are reputable and prestigious. And they are positioned by God – The All Wise- at a sublime level.
For those not familliar with the teaching of Islam, Jesus is actually a recognized prophet and venerated by the Prophet Mohamed (peace be upon him).
So now we can get day to day updates directly from the leader of a country that really considers us an enemy. What wonders the internet has brought us?
