Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s motorcade was not attacked by a grenade on Wednesday, an official in his media office said, explaining that an explosion was from a “firecracker.”
“It was a firecracker, and a statement will be released soon,” the source said.
He was responding to reports on a conservative website that a hand grenade had exploded next to a vehicle carrying reporters accompanying the president in the western city of Hamedan. Iran’s Arabic-language Al-Alam TV reported that the firecracker was set off to cheer the president. Ahmadinejad later delivered a live televised speech to locals gathered in a stadium and made no reference to the alleged incident.
The hardliner claimed this week that “Zionists” want to assassinate him.

04-Aug-2010 Reply | Forward President Ahmadi Nijad is a valiant politician par excellence and a leader with a difference. He doesn’t need gimmicks to call for popularity. In fact he is popular amongst most of the Iranians and all those who do not want to see the world through Zionist glasses. Iran is a country with a rich history and oldest civilization. Its not a country which was captured and by white West from Red Indians.
