Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadi-Nejad’s motorcade came under attack on Wednesday as a home-made grenade hit one of the cars in his convoy during a trip to the western city of Hamedan.

A hand grenade had been hurled at vehicles accompanying Mr Ahmadi-Nejad, the semi-official Fars news agency reported on Wednesday, stressing that the attacker had been arrested.

The Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad car was reportedly attacked by a homemade grenade. There are injuries reported. A couple of days ago I remember Ahmadinejad claiming "Zionists" were planning to assassinate him, I wonder if this is connected.

Iran has denied that there was an attack on Ahmadinejad, instead saying that a firework had been lit off during festivities and the man had been arrested.

What a shame it still lives!

Maybe there should have been a few more "accidental fireworks"...

Benazir Bhutto was killed in exactly the same way
she returned to her countries and during a convoy for a speech
she was killed by a bomb

same method .. same group ?? maybe

Feh, Killing Ahmidinijad wouldn't really change much. His power is limited at best and he functions more as a figurehead head of state.

Yes, but his mouth sure runs a lot. The seeds that his words plant are what's dangerous, not the amount of power of state he has.
