"This is your last interview" Ahmadinejad tells Mike Wallace
2006-08-12
CBS News announced in the spring that [Mike] Wallace had retired as a regular "60 Minutes" correspondent, although he would still be available for special interviews.
Wallace said he nearly fell out of his chair when Ahmadinejad told him, "I hear this is your last interview."

or maybe Ahmadinejad knows something the rest of us don't

#11  He's impressed that Ahmadinejad gave him a scoop and got him back in the public eye. Mantra of any big name news guy: "It's all about ME."

#10  Was Wallace kneeling so it would look like their eyes were almost level?

#9  What Iran does NORTH KOREA tries to do or emulate as close as possible, and the NorKors have already admitted or inferred to having nukes. Iran is hell-bent for regional and later global empire, which isn't gonna stop whether Iran formally announces it has nukes on 8/22 or other. Neither will the attacks on Israel.

#6  I wonder if anyone would notice if Mike Wallace gave just one more interview before the 22nd, just to let the world know that Ahmadinejad's fortunetelling abilities may not bee as good as he thinks.

More likely Ahmadinejad knows something the rest of us [here at Rantburg] do, UU.

#1  Of Ahmadinejad, Wallace said, "He's an impressive fellow, this guy. He really is. He's obviously smart as hell."

Wallace, is apparently, easily impressed. Kind of like Dan Rather being impressed with Saddam. What about this dictatorial little twit impressed you Mike? Was it his Hitlerian demeanor and aspirations? His desire to exterminate the Jews?
