Well, this is interesting. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has just fired his Foreign Minister, Manouchehr Mottaki while Mottaki was in the midst of an African tour.
Mottaki, who has served as Ahmadinejad’s Foreign Minister since taking office in 2005, has been replaced on an interim basis by Ali Akbar Salehi, who happens to be Iran’s chief negotiator for its nuclear program.
One can only hope that this is a sign of a power struggle. Mottaki is considered close to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei and Khamenei could take this move as a sign that Ahmadinejad is challenging his authority. Perhaps the only way the Iranian regime will fall is if it crumbles from within.

If the Old Testament were being written today, how might it cover Stuxnet?
"And in the days of Ahmadinejad, there went out from Shephelah a silent utterance that reached the warriors of Persia without their hearing even as they prepared to descend on Israel in battle and annihilate the Jews. Still the Persians were confused and confounded so as to be helpless to buckle their shields or lift their swords or throw anything at the Jews. And Israel rested at peace, secure in the palm of God."
That it might come to pass, Lord hear our prayer.
