(Not that I care what Iran has to say, but thought I’d put it out there)
Iran predicts fall of Israel, Saudi Arabia, and praises MB.
Sa’dallah Zara’i, a member of the editorial board of the Iranian daily Kayhan, said at a conference on “From the Fall of Dictators to the Emergence of a Single Nation” that Israel would survive for one year from the date of the fall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
In Saudi Arabia, he said, there would be a coup that would topple King Abdallah within six months, and coups were also expected in Jordan, Algeria, and Morocco.
Zara’i praised the Muslim Brotherhood, which has spread out from its beginnings in Egypt to 17 Arab countries, and taken control of three governments in the Islamic world.
He said that the Western countries did not share the U.S.’s position that Mohamed ElBaradei would replace Mubarak.

“Iran predicts fall of Israel, Saudi Arabia, and praises MB.”
And Netanyahu very recently gave a speech about how Iran is behind this.
I am sure Iran also said that this would happen within one year after Mubarak falls, because they have a nuke ready to be revealed.
This is beyond serious now, and the rest of the World sits by and does nothing, hoping it will just go away.
Well, Iran and the Shias may praise the Ikhwan now, but the antipathy expressed by the likes of the Saudi king to Iran is indicative of the immense animus the Sunnis have for Shias, current Arab street support for Teheran nothwithstanding.
As Obama is finding out, it’s really, really hard to thread that needle of gently backstabbing our long term ally while holding out a tentative, quivering hand to the democratistas.
We tried to make everyone happy and not hurt anyone’s feelings and ended up really making all sides mad at us.
Must be that strategery we keep hearing about.
