The religious right behaves similarly when in power, whether in
Americo, Iran or Afghanistan. In all cases, liberty suffers and
intolerance threatens.

Ahmadinejad seeks college teachers purge
By NASSER KARIMI
TEHRAN, Iran -
Iran's conservative President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Tuesday for a
purge of liberal and secular teachers from the country's universities,
urging students to return to 1980s-style radicalism.
"Today, students should shout at the president and ask why liberal and
secular university lecturers are present in the universities," the
official Islamic Republic News Agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying
during a meeting with a group of students.
