Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has a serious curriculum vitae : atomic fearmonger , snazzy dresser , Israel - denier , and shortly , mayhap , his country ’s firstastronaut . A quasi - harebrained potentate , in space , levitate over America , manically laughing .
Afterblasting a miserable monkeyinto space , Iran sounds ready to make the next tone — or at least its chair is , according to the AP :
Iran Just send off a Monkey Into Space
“ I ’m quick to be the first Iranian to give myself for our state ’s scientist , ” the official IRNA news office quote [ Ahmadinejad ] as say in an speech to space scientists in Tehran .
So not only does he desire to make the baffling move of go to outer distance himself — can you imagine JFK in a spacesuit?—he ’s uncoerced to die out in the process . With Iran ’s blank space political platform still in its infancy , there ’s a very secure chance Mahmoud would get his luck if he went up in a capsule — it ’s unclear if the country could evenkeep that pitiful monkey alive .
Still , the claim takes outer space ball . possibly Ahmadinejad is bluffing . Maybe these are the discussion of a sick man . Or possibly , just mayhap , Mahmoud just loves space more than any other man drawing card , and rather than go out in a nuclear red region of his own doing , he wants to gain toward the heavens , where monkey venerate to tread .
