HMM.... IS AHMADINEJAD READING MY BLOG?????

One more than one occasion I have spoken to the issue of Ahmadinejad choosing the path of siding with, "the people", as he battles for his survival!

As a matter of fact, in the summer of 2011 even speculated on how Ahmadinejad might attempt such a plan.

At the time it only seemed logical or at least plausible that that he would attempt to positions himself as more in line with the citizens of Iran than  with an ever more unpopular government. " I represent the common man"!!! That was my speculative battle cry he might try to develop.

If Ahmadinejad is truly giving speeches and painting a picture of the people who are being treated with, "inequality", then as the  Debka   reports states, a confrontation with Khamenei may not be far off.

Although Ahmadinejad is only six months left his position; his vision, and ego, will be hard to suppress.

As I speculated back in 2011 Ahmadinejad may very well see the pending, "Arab spring\Tunisian virus", on the doorsteps of Iran; over he may be even promoting it's arrival!!!!

As I stated then, it may very well be that he is attempting to get out in front of public sentiment as he realizes, as well as the rest of Iranian government, how hard the sanctions will continue to impact the Iranian people.

The fact that his adversaries in his government have plotted to blame all the economic woes with Iran on him may have very well have  given him the idea of how to turn the tables on the followers of Khamenei.

This on-again off-again, confrontational environment between Ahmadinejad and the followers of Khamenei seems to be taking a new direction and it's a direction the leadership of the GCC and Israel will most likely welcome with open arms.

Observing the Iranian leadership struggle internally on face value may seem to be a, "a good idea", but we can never forget the classic example of governments in trouble, especially internal trouble, doing everything possible to deflect and distract from that struggle.

An open confrontation between Ahmadinejad and Khamenei is a disaster in the making for the Iranian leadership and they both know it.

The difference may very well be, Ahmadinejad has a plan and is even thought this plan through with  some level of fidelity.

Khamenei on the other hand has struggled to keep his confrontation with Ahmadinejad limited an out of the media.

That may have changed now that Ahmadinejad apparently seems to be willing to make press statements condemning the current, "leadership", around and more importantly above him.

I must admit, I was surprised I began to read about this new and unfortunately dangerous phase of Iranian politics.

As a began to read the Debka article, I couldn't help but wonder if perhaps Ahmadinejad and read what my old post :-)

Where can this potential internal conflict and Iranian leadership beheading?

It appears it is time to readdress this issue and I will do so soon.
