I can't imagine you mean (and here I will not cheat. I will do my best guess) Ahmeninaddjad (which can't be right with Ahmen in the beginning).
Sensible policy in the region would be to encourage moderate Muslims.
I can't remember about Khatami(sp?). He was moderate (though without power), and there seemed to be the perception that there was no profit in that type of moderation.
In the last 50 years the entire region has been radicalised.
