Mahmoud Ahmadinejad keeps getting nuttier and nuttier:
Iran’s hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Thursday evening that the Islamic Republic’s 1979 Islamic revolution was a great movement and a stepping stone to a final “great event” in the world.
Speaking to a crowd in the southern city of Roudan, Hormozgan province, Ahmadinejad said, “The Islamic Republic is the continuation of the path of the prophets which came to begin a great movement and the final occurrence”.
To those who don't get what he's talking about, he's speaking of the "imminent" return of the Twelth Shia Imam. Shias believe that, even though this guy was born 868 AD, he's actually still alive and will return and...
...well, some shit will happen, that's for sure.
I hate to break it to you guys, but, as much as 1200 year old Arabs excite me, he's not coming back.
(Sunnis, for the record, think the guy never existed).
Still, Ahmadinejad is right in that a "great event" may occur - unfortunately for the Mullahocracy, it's more likely to involve Israel and a bombing run.
Hey....all part of Allah's plan.
