    He claims that the octopus is a symbol of decadence and decay among "his enemies".


    Paul, who lives at the Oberhausen Sea Life Centre, in Germany, won the hearts of the Spanish by predicting their World Cup victory.

    He became an international star after predicting the outcome of all seven German World Cup matches accurately.

    However, the Iranian president accused the octopus of spreading "western propaganda and superstition." Paul was mentioned by Mr Ahmadinejad on various occasions during a speech in Tehran at the weekend.

    "Those who believe in this type of thing cannot be the leaders of the global nations that aspire, like Iran, to human perfection, basing themselves in the love of all sacred values," he said.

    Oh noes he didn't!!!


    Its one thing to threaten the western world with nuclear weapons but this time he went too far...insulting our defenseless psychic football pundit...tbh Ahmadinejad is a w*nker! I think the Western World has to go Jihad on his ass after this, he's crossed the line.


    My opinion "if Iran had more psychic octopi and less human rights violations, i think iran would be a better place" take that you Roy Keane wannabe.

    Calling it now, Paul will predict the order in which the middle east nations are nuked.

    My bets on Israel, Iran, Iraq then the rest. :pac:

    Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian leader, says Paul the Octopus, the sea creature that correctly predicted the outcome of World Cup games, is a symbol of all that is wrong with the western world.

    When it doubt, base your opinion of 2/3 billion people on an octupus.

    Anybody think the UN should put Paul into another tank to help them make a decision on Iran, with 2 boxes of food, one box saying "Ahmadinejad is a nice guy, leave him off" and the other saying "Ahmadinejad is a W*nker, lets go to War!"...i dont think Paul will let us down on this one.
