Hey, when Challenger blew up there were jokes about it too.  People  will 
laugh at anything, except themselves.  Imagine the glee when the bombs  start 
flying.  Yes, Eric, love that humanity.  On with the optimism  ...

The above is a  satirical letter to Iranian President Ahmadinejad regarding 
the letter he sent  to Bush.  It is by the Iranian writer Ibrahim Nabavi. 
 
 Not everyone was as  impressed with Ahmadinejadâs letter as Irene was.  
 
 
Here is a  sample:
 
"My Dear Mahmoud!  
"Your effort to  convert George Bush to Islam is indeed admirable... Do you 
think that Bush's  problem stems from the fact that he's not Muslim? If he were 
Muslim, he would  have, first thing, become a Wahhabi, and, with the power 
that he possesses,  would have attacked us with a vengeance overnight. So don't 
ask him to convert  to Islam!"
