  1. USATODAY – Officials: Grim intelligence report on Iran coming
    WASHINGTON (AP) — A draft intelligence report portrays a bleak political situation in Iran, anticipating little progress in getting Tehran to halt its nuclear program or stop supporting militant groups in the region, U.S. officials said Thursday.
    The latest in a series of reports from the nation’s 16 intelligence agencies, the new National Intelligence Estimate on Iran is nearly complete and could be shared with President Bush and other policymakers within weeks, said officials familiar with the report, who spoke on condition of anonymity because it has not been released. The report is expected to be completed as soon as next week, one official said.
    RELATED: Intel questions Iraq’s progress
    It is one of three reports the intelligence community is wrapping up on the Persian Gulf. Another looks at Iran’s nuclear program. And an update on the situation in Iraq is to be released Thursday.
    The report on Iran’s political situation looks at issues ranging from the economy to its weapons programs, the officials said.

  8. NEUEOZ– Weiche Worte vom Scharfmacher – Von Ralf Döring
    Teheran.– Das Thema lautet heute Gerechtigkeit. Immer wieder wird Mahmud Ahmadinedschad von den Gerechten sprechen und deren Widersachern: den Okkupierern, die fremde Staaten besetzen, und denjenigen, für die die Zahl der Waffen wichtiger ist als das Wohl der Menschen. Er geißelt Krieg, Diskriminierung und Brutalität, sieht schwarz für die Zukunft der Menschheit. Weiche Worte für den iranischen Präsidenten, der sonst eher als verbaler Scharfmacher auffällt. Er kehrt seine religiöse Seite heraus, denn heute wird der Geburtstag des 12., des „verborgenen“ Imams, gefeiert, der kommen wird, wenn die Welt zu Ende geht. Es ist der höchste Feiertag in der Islamischen Republik Iran.
    Doch seine Kanzelrede enthält kaum Neues. Das hat auch niemand der Journalisten aus aller Welt erwartet, die zur fünften Pressekonferenz in der Amtszeit Ahmadinedschads erschienen sind. Allein weil sie so selten stattfindet, wird die Veranstaltung zu einem exklusiven Ereignis. Entsprechend gelangweilt hängen die Reporter in den braunen Stühlen, die weit bequemer aussehen, als sie tatsächlich sind.

  12. MEMRIBLOG – Iranian Weekly: Hizbullah Striving Towards World Islamic Rule
    In an article, the Iranian weekly Sobh-e Sadeq, the mouthpiece of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei circulated among the Revolutionary Guards, has stated that Hizbullah sees itself as part of an Islamic movement striving towards Islamic rule of the world – not just as a Lebanese organization.
    It also said that Hizbullah was obeying, politically and religiously, the founder of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Ruholla Khomeini, and now his heir Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khameini, and that therefore Hizbullah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah kisses the hand of Khamenei and presents himself to him as his soldier.
    In another article, the weekly stated that Iran’s significant progress in ballistic missile technology will force its enemies to be more cautious in their contacts with it and will reduce the risk to which Iran is exposed.

  14. MEMRIBLOG – Ahmadinejad: Putin Told Me Bushehr Reactor Will Be Completed On Schedule; Iranian Media: Ahmadinejad, Putin Never Met
    At an August 28 press conference, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad stated that during his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin during the August 16 Shanghai Alliance conference in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, Putin had told him that the reactor at Bushehr would be completed on schedule.
    However, according to Iranian media reports, the two never met during the conference.
    Following the conference, Ahmadinejad had been criticized by the reformist daily Aftab-e Yazd for missing an opportunity to influence Russia’s position in advance of the U.N. Security Council discussion of Iran’s nuclear dossier in early September.
    In contrast, an article on the Iranian website Farda had praised Ahmadinejad for not meeting with Putin, calling this symbolic of the preservation of Iran’s honor and independence, and saying that Iran should continue to boycott Russia in international forums until the desired result is achieved – that is, until Russia stops its hypocrisy towards Iran.

So, he does not know what he is saying.“ He added that such statements were of no political value, and were strictly for domestic consumption.
