gandhi wasnt a great leader imo; nehru was a far better. he had the class (i cant find a better word to describe it)! And ahmedinijaad is far better than anything the sunnis have to offer. educated, practical, simple, effective and leads by example.

I think you have been dished some Shia'a propaganda. First of all, there is more than clear evidence that Mr Ahmedinajad rigged the iranian election. The landslide victory in re-election was announced barely after all the votes were cast. It is almost impossible for them to count and him being the Ayatollah's man, he was elected.
If you like him just because he is an annoyance for the west, then that's your choice. But he is no great leader. How can a man with a good heart or conscience lead a country that targets and kills its own people ? Intruding into homes and killing people, innocents whose only 'sin' was to expose the rigged elections.
Mr Ahmadinajad is not educated visionary either. The iranian economy has slumped and is in dire straits. There are record rates of unemployment (which is why young folk detest him). Also, if you understand farsi, you would have known about the superstitious statements he has made, fooling poor ignorant masses of his country.
How can you say that he is better than most Sunni leaders when most of them has strived to preserved the essence of islam 'tawheed', whereas the relgious clerics promote shirk in name of prophet's family ?
I think a major problem is that muslims think that by aping Kuffar we are going to match their prosperity and military might. This is not our success. Our success is re-establishing the tawheed of Allah on muslim lands. May Allah subhaanaho waa ta'ala grant it to us. Ameen
And I think you should read their views on Sunni muslims. I guess their description of Sunnis will have a profound effect on what you think of them, to say the least.
