[MY VIEW] Major League
Soccer has a winner with its all-star format. What other sport can tout
an all-star event played with the intensity of the 2010 game in

"Those who believe in this type of thing cannot be the leaders of the global nations that aspire, like Iran, to human perfection, basing themselves in the love of all sacred values."

Ahmadinejad mentioned Paul several times during a speech last weekend in Tehran, accusing the mollusk of spreading "western propaganda and superstition." (Telegraph)
