Im not in the UK so wont be able to see this live but will be sure to watch it online later.

Have channel 4 overdone it this time? Or should we show respect to channel 4 for bagging what seems like a very exclusive and strange interview with a modern day mad man.

Irans human rights record has been questionable of late, so I think this could offend some however I'm intrigued at how Ahmadinejad agreed to do this?
 
At the end of the day he is the president of Iran, They cannot argue that he is extremist as he isn't just a random terrorist and if so extremist by what, our Christian standards?

As much as I personally dislike Shiria law it is a way of life for many. If C4 want to show this then they should be ble to.

It does annoy me how Isreal is portraid as the "good guys" when they are all as bad as each other.


If it is really so obviously offensive and wrong then no one will take him seriously and we will all have a good laugh, or is there something to hide?

It just annoys me everything is banned as to not cause offence. I would rather make my own decision thank you.

don't jump the gun sunshine, you'll only get shot.

what, the fact that the crown has no control over any law that is passed in this country. maybe a century or two ago the queen was the most powerful person in the world but if you believe that is still the case you are deluded.

When was the last time she used any of her powers, 99 with the iraq bill? yes she has some power but the most powerful person in the world, hardly.
 
As long as he isn't saying "death to all Christian infidels" etc, then I don't see the problem.

"She is the Sovereign or Head of State of some 16 counties (including the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia). Additionally she is the Crown for a further 14 dependant territories (such as Bermuda, and Gibralter). She is also the head of the Commonwealth of Nations, a world organisation of over 50 countries which make up almost one third of the world’s population.

She has held power as the Sovereign for over 50 years. Power like that does not come and go every 4 years as with an American president, it lasts a life time. That is perhaps why she has no need to flaunt her authority about. However, do not underestimate the subtle power of this mighty sovereignty."
