This is the second part of a followup to my video in which I suggest we sponsor 5000 poor Iranians a year to go on a Hajj. This is a peace offering intended as part of an apology for our role in overthrowing Mossadegh and putting the Shah back on the thrown. However, this offer comes with a twist that turns it from a rose of appeasement into a dagger aimed at the heart of the Iranian regime.

Very important story by Steve Schippert that discusses the potentially huge implications if Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani is trying to get rid of the Khamenei regime. This is a must read:

Fareed Zakaria of Newsweek writes:

There is one way religion could be used against Iran's leaders, but it would involve an unlikely scenario: were Iraq-based Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani to issue a fatwa condemning Tehran in any way, it would be a seismic event, probably resulting in the regime's collapse. Remember, Sistani is Iranian, probably more revered in the entire Shia world than any other ayatollah, and he is opposed to the basic doctrine of velayat-e faqih that created the Islamic Republic of Iran. His own view is that clerics should not be involved in politics, which is why he has steered clear of any such role in Iraq. But he is unlikely to publicly criticize the Iranian regime. (He did, however, refuse to see Ahmadinejad when the latter visited Iraq in March 2008.)

I like his channel but he looks like a gimp. A literal one. It kinda distracts from his message.

Well, mask, you've certainly given me something to wrack my brain about. Personally, I'd rather the U.N. be a little stronger in ensuring the common interest of all nations to be safe against the terror of tyrants, but I also see the opportunity for reform in your proposed strategy even though by my analysis it still could lead to an over-dependent alliance.

"The nutter talk would go through the roof ... again."
That has happened every single time the repukelickins were out of the majority within the last 25 years. The propaganda machine of the reich wing is the most powerful to exist on earth since Goebbels.

Agreed. There are far too many who think that Obama is an undercover muslim trying to destroy America by making it more socialist (or something). The nutter talk would go through the roof ... again.
