Ahmadinejad's game plan is working

In the latest news on the most interesting man in the middle east, President Ahmadinejad's plan to become more well like in the Middle East is succeeding. Fareed Zakaria is an analyst for CNN, he says that Iran is really not that much of a power in the world, he says that it's a regional power. Zakaria states, "The reality about Iran is that it's a middle-rank power, a regional power, and if not for Ahmidenijad's outlandishness, it would not deserve as much attention as we're giving it." Zakaria was at an opening breakfast with the President, in years past he was not nearly as smooth, calm, and collected as he was this year. Even though he was having problems at home and in his country, he showed no sign of weakness. Zakaria adresses the statements that the President used to make to Israel. He used to act like he would attack but now he much more careful about what he says. Zakaria's ultimate concern and message is that Iran is not that much of a threat. The media and the U.S. government are making them sound a lot bigger and tougher than they really are.
