Rumour of Day (Week? Month?) — Rafsanjani “Ultimatum” to Supreme Leader. The Green site Rah-e-Sabz, without citing a source, makes the following claim:
Authorities went to arrest the wife of Mir Hossein’s chief advisor Alireza Beheshti, who was already detained, on Tuesday, but could not find her. She then called Hashemi Rafsanjani from her hiding place and told him, “Look where we have got to that the grandchildren of Shahid Beheshti have to be on the run in dahey-e fajr (the 10-Day Dawn preceding the anniversary of the 1979 Revolution).” This allegedly upset Rafsanjani to the point to tears.
During his regular Tuesday meeting with the Supreme Leader, Rafsanjani reporetedly demanded the immediate release of Beheshti and an end to these “shameful” actions. Beyond this, Rafsanjani spoke with Ayatollah Khamenei about the management of the country, the post-election crisis, detentions, and the press. The former President then allegedly gave Khamenei an ultimatum (“etmam-e hojjat”, which may also translate into “last word”) to take action.
Rah-e-Sabz says that it will publish more about this meeting later.
Now there is no way to verify the website’s claim, but Alireza Beheshti has been freed. Coinicidence or validation of the report?

Remember when that idiot in Lybia had his line of death? He did, just did not know whose live of death he was speaking of. Gee I wish someone with some gonads were in the White House these days.
Would you please re-write that so it makes some sense, and then explain what you are talking about. Thank you.
Now I will translate: Whatever those guys do that maybe provocative, we should go them one better.
He’s talking about Momar Quadafi, Reagan bombed the
crap out of him.
Ahmadiggadoo is going to fill a brown bag with dog poop, set it afire outside the (former) American Consulate, and ring the doorbell.
The “Line of Death” was a boundary that Libya’s Qaddafi delimited in the Gulf of Sidra. Anyone trespassing without authorization would be eliminated — thus the Line of Death. Reagan only laughed, and attacked Qaddafi where he lived. Barely escaping death, not much was heard of Qadaffi for the nest 18 months.
Hence the classic Robin Williams' routine:
"This is a 'Line of Death.' - You cross it, you die!"
"Ok, here is another 'Line of Death - You cross it, you die!"
"Here's another line."
"Another line."
"Alright that's it, you come a-knocking on my door, I'm not coming out."
FWIW, after a buildup like this, the only thing that would be truly impressive is a fully built bomb in their parade.
Or a missile with a deliverable one.
Would Khameini brag without reason?
Thanks.
More than a little fascinating.
