Christian Science Monitor's False Reporting moonofalabama.org And the CSM has traditionally been one of the least biased sources on the Middle East. CNN is much worse. They are giving blanket coverage to this Mousavi sham. To recap: 1. Ahmadinejad spent 4 years campaigning, Mousavi entered the campaign at the last minute 2. Ahmadinejad catered to the masses, Mousavi catered to the elite 3. Unsurpringly, the polls indicated Ahmadinejad would win 2-1, well over 60% of the vote 4.

After about 20% of the votes had been counted, the Ayatollah said Ahmadinejad was way ahead and the likely winner 6.
