Iran

Following my post on the assassination of Masoud Moqadasi, the judge in the trial of Iran's best-known political prisoner, journalist Akbar Ganji, Regime Change Iran has some interesting news:

Reading the above, I am now beginning to understand why there were rumours in Tehran last night that the assassination could be the work of an insider, or someone who worked for any of the Intelligence Organizations of the regime at some point.

If you add to this the increasing unrest in the Kurdish northwest and Arab southwest, the impasse with the EU over uranium enrichment, the not so warm reception that the new president has received after the rigged elections, it makes one wonder if Iran is headed towards a catastrophe faster than expected.
