The football team's No. 1 fan

One of the perks of being President is free tickets to the World Cup - as long as your country qualifies for the finals, that is. So it's not surprising that, according to reports, President Ahmadinejad is keen to support his team in Germany.

He's an avid keen soccer fan, by all accounts, and the head of Iran's Football Federation told the Reuters news agency that the President was planning to make the trip.

But surely that won't be allowed, at least until the whole rumpus about nuclear weapons is sorted out? There's also the matter of Ahmadinejad questioning whether the Holocaust ever happened. Holocaust denial is a crime in Germany.
