3. Ahmadinejad visits Brazil to build nuclear and business ties with Latin America powerhouse -- the spin being applied is that Ahmadinejad is "legitimizing" himself by sucking up to Lula, illuminati puppet. oh please.
BRASILIA, Brazil (AP) — For Iran, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's visit to Brazil provides some sorely needed political legitimacy for his increasingly isolated nation.
For Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, it is a chance for South America's largest nation to bask in its growing political clout.
Ahmadinejad's first ever visit to Brazil comes a day after Iran launched large-scale air defense war games aimed at protecting its nuclear facilities from attack as an air force commander boasted the country could deter any military strike by Israel.
..."With Brazil he gets more bang for his buck in the sense you're getting legitimacy from a more mainstream player," said Daniel Brumberg, an Iran expert at the Washington-based United States Institute of Peace. "One would hope Brazil's diplomacy would be skillful enough to get certain types of messages across to the Iranians and not just give Ahmadinejad the red-carpet treatment."
