#1 Excellent! I wish Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the mad mullahs a speedy decent into hell.

#2 It has been a long time coming, but unmistakable cracks are beginning to appear in the edifice of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's autocratic regime.

How many articles that start with, roughly, this sentence have we seen so far?

#3 Too many. That's why I don't follow Western newspapers when they report on Iran. They're either breathless, vague, or sycophantic.

#4 I don't think Ahmadinejad is going anywhere in the near term. I don't think this generation of Iranian youth will willingly participate in any human wave slugfest with the US. He could get ousted if he heads in that direction or if he gets implicated in some kind of financial cronyism.
