sounds pretty accurate to me.

just a snip

Iran's supreme leader has reaffirmed his country's commitment to a peaceful nuclear programme, while attacking George Bush, the US president as "mentally ill".

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told a ceremony honouring the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, founder of the Islamic Republic, that Tehran had no interest in building nuclear weapons.

1. I'd agree with that assessment

Not that I'd call Khamenei 100% either but he's closer than shrub.

2. What do you know about Khamenei other than he is like their Pope?

Why would you make a statement about this man that so little is known about? He is not the Khomenei that took over Iran after the fall of the Shaw. He is never in public and almost never makes any public comments. He rules behind the scenes.
