#1 Highly entertaining reading. How many of them really and truly believe in all this superstition?

As they live in 1432 it' about time to start a Medieval type Inquisition!

#4 Ahmadinejad is openly obsessed with what he believes / hopes will be the imminent return of the Hidden Imam. I'm guessing the recent movie about the Hidden Imam and current events set off a lot of alarms among the Mullahs, especially when combined with events in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Syria...

Apocalyptic sects tend to emerge at times of geopolitical upheaval and to clash with established clerics in many religions, as medieval Europe amply illustrates. Apart from challenging the current Turbans in Charge for immediate control of policy, Short-Round is really threatening the broader power structures with the potential to unleash end-of-times mob hysteria.

#9 Hitler and his close personnel were big believers in the occult. The Ba'ath political party was modeled after the Hitler model. I believe the occult would be part n parcel.
