#4 Right now it's internal and yes, something similar happened last year.

If it breaks into the open, expect Iran's economy to be thrown into chaos (the IRGC controls a slightly larger - at last report - chunk of Iranian industry than the mullahs).

#6 #5 How absurd! No responsible head of state would be golfing or going to Hawaii during a time of crisis like this.

#9 Ahmadinejad's tenure threatened
Several Iranian lawmakers announced they were calling for the impeachment of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad amid Cabinet disputes.

Twelve members of the Iranian Parliament called for Ahmadinejad's impeachment, reports Radio Zamaneh, a Persian-language broadcaster in the Netherlands. Parliamentary laws stipulate that at least 10 members must sign a demand for impeachment before the matter is processed by the speaker.

[Ideo-Pol, Religious].

IIUC, IOW Khatami is demanding that Ahmadinejad "stand tall", put differences aside, + work as one wid their common El Supremo the Ayatollah Khamenei.

* OTOH CHINESE MIL FORUM > [NYT = "Jasmine"-Embattled] ARAB LEADERS WILL USE LETHAL FORCE, PERSISTENCE IS THE KEY TO VICTORY.
