"Iran denies reports of attack on President Ahmadinejad"
Apparently, Iran's president was attack on the way to his speech. An explosive device was thrown at his car, and it set off about 100 meters away from the car. However, after all this was posted online, reported, done, and said, all the information was deleted and removed from post. In its place, new information was posted. It claimed that fireworks were set off in celebration and to encourage the president. President Ahmadinejad says that he believes there was an attempt. He also believes that it was an assassination attempt made by Israel.
The answers are currently unknown. However, the president believes that it was thrown by an Israelis. This would mean that whoever it was, was sent by the government of Israel.
What do I think of this event? Why is this important?
I believe that someone did try to assassinate the president of Iran. That person might not have been an Israelis; he could've been Iranian. The person could've had something against what the president was doing, or had something personal against him. He or she could've done it because he/she was told to. Whatever the reason, I believe someone did try to assassinate the president and is now having his or her story covered up.
This is important because a president was almost killed. Presidents are important. They determine what goes on in a country. When a new president is elected, many things change in a country, for each person has different views and ways to go about things. If President Ahmadinejad was killed, someone else would've needed to step up in his place. Many things would then change in Iran. Some changes in one country can affect other countries. What if he decides to attack another country? What if he decides to change policies of immigration? Although these questions are only "what ifs, " there is still that possibility. You never know. Whether the changing of a president is good or not, you also never know. However, its the change that's new. That is why this is important to us.
