Channel 4 have announced that this year's alternative Christmas speech (to the queen's) will be given by Iranian President (and complete nutjob) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad


This man who openly denies the Holocaust, announced a couple years ago that Israel should be 'wiped off the map' and who runs a corrupt government of loons that has a terrible human rights record is the man Channel 4 believes should offer the people of Britain a nice festive message of Christmas cheer, celebrating the birth of the Son of God, the claims of Sonship of which Ahmadinejad obviously rejects as a Muslim.

When you factor in we will going to war with them in 2010 when the US have finally found the 'proof' of nuclear stockpiling this seems to be a spectacularly ill advised choice.
