Disease Khamenei is harbinger of chaos

Khamenei in a speech

March 1, 1953. He had not appeared. Neither had he calles anyone with him. At half past six in the evening light was lit in his office. Now everyone waited on his bell. He had not eaten and he had not yet gone through the mail. It was nearly 10 hours at night. In all that time nobody dared to come to the great leader. Everyone was worried. Something menacing hung in the air.

Eventually the employee's doing 11 hours at the Chamber of the great leader to walk the mail to. Stalin was found the small dining room, said Dmitri Volkogonov in 'Trimof and tragedy, a political portrait of Josef Stalin. How did he look? Stalin was in his pajama pants and undershirt on the ground. What will they do? Call a doctor? No. They soughtto find Beria, the director of the notorious secret service of the Soviet Union. Without the consent of Beria no one could (or dared) call a doctor.

But they could not find Beria. Beria was busy with a new lady. Only at three hours at night Beria came in. Comrade Stalin All this time, for hours on the ground laid a dying man who couldnt be helped by anyone. Who could dare to touch the great leader in his pajama pants? What then did Beria in the first instance? No doctors but a threatening speech: "What do you panic! Can you not see that Stalin is firmly asleep? March, everybody out, and our leader is not to be disturbed his sleep! I will get into this with you later! "

At nine o clock in came Beria, the rest of the Politburo and the doctors to inspect the great leader. Stalin was long dead. The world would be infomed only a few days later. From that time on the different groups working together to eradicate. That is the death of totalitarian leaders.

Cancer

How is it going with Ayatollah Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Iran? We have long known that he is very ill. He may suffer from a form of cancer. But this week announced Michael Ledeen, an Iran-renowned expert and former security adviser to President Reagan that Khamenei is in a coma since last Monday.

Ledeens opinion is based on his sources in Iran. His blog was fully translated and distributed by the site Tabnak of Mohsen Rezai, former commander of the Revolutionary Guard (RG). Then it was taken over by countless sites. In the past week, Khamenei didnt appeare in public. Even after the reports of Ledeen Khamenei didnt appeare in public.

But ISNA and Fars reported yesterday that the leader had a meeting with Senegalese President. But who has met whom? Unfortunately I can not judge this. Sometimes, briefly, there are wonderful medication effects.

Is Khamenei actually still alive? Ledeen was attacked by the state of Irans media. Meanwhile, nobody knows what happens with Khamenei. Maybe he is better. One thing is certain: Khamenei is in a bad state. My sources also report this. He was even visited by Russian doctors. What a coincidence! Ledeen does have knowledgeable friends in Tehran and it irritates the Iranian rulers. For if the message on the health of Ledeen on the Iranian leader was not right, then it must be denied Ahmadinejad. They did not. If the leader of Iran is in a perfect condition, he would have to appear in public. From the dark chambers of the totalitarian Iran, an important message reached Ledeen: the great leader is not well.

Suppose that Khamenei dies. What happens then? There is chaos and violence on who the successor to Khamenei may be. Even Khomeini's death was announced after several days because they first wanted to settle the succession. Ahmadinejad has already received a license at their discretion and act as necessary to arrest opposition leaders. This week the generals and the intelligence talked about security in the coming weeks. In case of arrests an unprecedented bloody conflict in Iran will be unleashed with an uncertain outcome.

Prohibited

Suppose Khamenei gets better. What happens then? For Studentday early November a major demonstration has been planned. But now the pupils and students are warned that they should not demonstrate. The regime is apparently planning to go into action that day. After that they will probably arreste thousands.

The decisive moment for the government and the opposition has slowly begun to announce. There will anyway be deaths. Ledeen has done Iranians and the world a favor by reminding everyone that the Persian people have difficult days ahead. When the totalitarian leaders, the mortal gods go, the burial of the earthly gods not an easy task.
