Sometimes things happen that make you bang your head on a table laughing. This was one. Apparently there was a show on state television where a child was rewarded for behaving himself (perhaps learning to curse Jews in boisterous fashion) with a toy monkey. When asked what he called the monkey the boy replied; "Well, my father calls him Ahmedinejad".
My guess is there is a large stain in the dad's shorts right about now. It could be an extra offense because Iranian sponsored Hezbollah repeatedly refers to Jews as monkeys and swine. The TV show was promptly canceled.
The reason for cancellation?... the high "spiritual" and "financial" costs of airing the show. Indeed.

Those pesky kids huh?
I had to google the name, then it became VERY obvious. I think the family will be leaving the country soon. Perhaps looking for a democracy or something?
