Nothing follows ...

No mention on any other major news sites.

[furquhart]

I've moved this to breaking news, given the far-reaching consequnces this could have.

[Danae]

Piss be upon him forever in his bath of Pig's blood.

Say hi to Saddam in hell eh?

[Maynerd]

Looks like Saddam has a bunkie.

[r9etb]

Well, this should be instructive.

Either Ahneedajihad gets one of his fire-breathers in, or Ahneedajihad gets killed. I really don't see many other alternatives.

[Danae]

Boy, this is a really good time to arm insurgent Students in Iran to overtake the government. A VERY good time.

[Ben Mugged]

I saw this earlier. It is attributed to an anonymous source "close to" the blogger. Hardly what you would call reliable.

[Hemingway's Ghost]

I hate to speak ill of another human being, but in this case, I'll make an exception: Good riddance to bad rubbish.

[Lijahsbubbe]

I wonder if hell has a separate prayer room for Muslims?

[Rick.Donaldson]

This is big news... even HUGH NEWS.

[areafiftyone]

ALREADY POSTED HERE

[CygnusXI]

Wasnt there a "prophecy" about 4 world leaders dying?
Ford
Saddam
This guy now and .. who wha?

[Vaquero]

[NinoFan]

Hopefully, unlike the UN appointment I posted a bit ago in Breaking News, this will materialize. (Thanks for nothing, ABC News.)

Any other sources on this?

[ConservativeMan55]

Whoo hoo lol!

[CaliGirlGodHelpMe]

Whoa, there's a thought...what would Bush do if the students asked USA to help them take over the country...

[PISANO]

Looks like Ichabod Imadoinjihad may have free reign for awhile!!

[dfwgator]

Would Sharon count?

[Revenge of Sith]

Maybe Ahmadinejad "helped" him die.

[Danae]

Imadumbjerk may well lost everything in the next 24 hours. If he makes it a week he will survive. But if he goes it will be in the next 48 hours.
Piss be upon him, I love the fact that his whole little house of explosive cards may well be raining down on his bloody shoulders even now.

[The Blitherer]

Well, this'll cause a stir......if true.

[RightWhale]

He has been failing rapidly. Demise not unexpected.
Shirley Dementieff has also died today--58.

[LC HOGHEAD]

4-castro

[Danae]

Hum, just run a few battalions across the borders maybe? O now there is a bright idea, even if politically sticky.

[Eleutheria5]

That would explain the midgets in strange costumes dancing around and singing like they just inhaled helium. Did a house fall on him?

[Hydroshock]

May pork be upon him.

[SmithL]

Are you series?

[jveritas]

Another Supreme evil terrorist is dead, but are we sure that this news about his death is true?

[stinkerpot65]

Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead

[TET1968]

Another Adide clear weather "plane crash"?

Don't worry about who gets the credit, just get it done.

[Velveeta]

Ding

[CzarNicky]

no great loss

[dfwgator]

[baiamonte]

Bury the guy with a pig.

[baiamonte]

Bury the guy with a pig.

[Enosh]

Counter-revolution time!

[Jack Wilson]

Wow! The Democrats are already making things happen!

[Chena]

Bury the guy with a pig.

That needs to be repeated. ;)

[OB1kNOb]

If Yazdi replaces Khamenei as Iran’s Supreme Leader it may be Katie bar the door time.

[bert]

What about his girl friend. Wonder if she is still taking nourishment.

You know...whats her name. She worked in that little bookshop in New York.

[Cindy]

He's been ill for a while and this is not unexpected.

Thanks for the ping.

[Chewie84]

Hey, if it'll bring needed reform to Iran, good. Chances are he, like Saddam, has discovered that there WON'T be 72 virgins in the place where he now resides.

[SolidWood]

Oy! Ping and I hope it's true. AhHmadinejad, Nasrallah and Sadr have to die soon, too. I'm only afraid that the nutjob Mesbah-Yazdi follows Khameini. This would be dramatic.

[RockinRight]

Too bad it's not Ammanutjob.

[Maceman]

Pinochet?
