Prominent Iranian Leader Rebukes Munchkin King Ahmadinejad
Hasan Rowhani is a member of the Supreme National Security Council and sits on two powerful cleric-run bodies, the Experts Assembly and the Expediency Council.
TEHRAN, Iran - Iran’s former chief nuclear negotiator delivered an unusually sharp rebuke to President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s policies Wednesday, saying they are turning more nations against Iran and failing to fix the struggling economy.
The comments by Hasan Rowhani were the harshest yet against the hard- line president by a prominent figure in the Iranian leadership, and came after critics had grown muted in recent month as the government stirred up fears of conflict with the U.S. and warned against dissent.
The criticism echoed complaints early this year from conservative supporters of Ahmadinejad that his inflammatory rhetoric was needlessly goading the West in the confrontation over Iran’s nuclear program and that he hadn’t fulfilled promises to improve the economy.
Rowhani was replaced as nuclear negotiator when Ahmadinejad came to office in 2005, but he remains a member of the Supreme National Security Council and sits on two powerful cleric-run bodies, the Experts Assembly and the Expediency Council.

Despit all of his dellusions of grandeur, Ahmedinajihad does not have the final say in Iran. The final word rests with the Ayatollahs.
If the little boy-king would stop financing terror, he might have the duckets left to straighten out his country’s economy.
Nevertheless, Iran has embarked on a foolish enterprise vis vis the acquisition of offensive nuclear weapons. If the Ayatollahs don’t stop him soon, he will be responsible for bringing great scunion down on his country.
