So much for hopes that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would by chastened by the events of the last few months:

"A new period has begun," he told the Association of Basiji Scholars at a meeting in Mashhad last Thursday, according to a report by the news website Farda News.
"Let me take the oath of office, and wait for the government to begin its work," he told the Basiji members, who are affiliated with the militiamen clubbing demonstrators in the streets.
"Then, we'll seize them by their collars and stick their heads to the ceiling," he said.
