He bowed out of the window very much. I can't see him taking back his statement woithout loosing hisface even more. So I tend to be carefully optimistic. Also, not all Iranians are hysterical demonstrators, ultraorthodox clerics and revolutionary guards. I'm sure that Ahmadinejad has been under massive pressure over the last days. If you think there is friendship between him and the clerics, then you are wrong. His aggressive style is threatening their strategy to cautiously, patiently outmaneuvre the West, instead of heading for a big-mouthed showdown.
