Haman from Iran
Commenter #96 on a Hebrew-language article on Iran's statements that they can blow up Dimona reminded me of a post I posted about Iran's current leader that's just as relevant today as it was 3 years ago, or perhaps more so.
As an added point to the gemara that says:
אמר לו רבי אליעזר: "הקב"ה מעמיד עליהן מלך קשה כהמן, ומיד הן עושין תשובה - והן נגאלין". מאי טעמא? ועת צרה היא ליעקב - וממנה יוושע.
I heard from Rav Shmueli's recent shiur that you can scramble the word וממנה and make it ומהמן for added effect.

what is the gematria of mahmoud ahmadinejad?
Well, let's see:
מחמוד = 98
אחמדי-נג'אד = 121
= 219
However, according to Hashem1.net, if you use the ה instead of the ח (as in Persian, the letter is closer to a ה than a ח), then מהמוד itself is the gematria of המן.
Also, Yaakov Nathan commented on my original post:
Ahmedi-najad can be transposed to Hebrew as Chemda-Neged: a "desire against"...
to which I commented:
Let's take a look at some gematrias:
Hemda = 57
Neged = 57
Ze Ge'ula = 57
