I've always said "Cuh-tar," but to my knowledge "cutter" is the appropriate way...which just doesn't sound right to me.

What? No it isn’t.

I took a class on Middle Eastern government back in college with a Professor who was from Iran, and that's how he pronounced it. I figured he was a more credible source than anyone.
