BREAKING: Iran Ambassador to Norway resigned/seeking asylum!
Twitter | Tues, January 5, 2010 | ?

Posted on 01/05/2010 4:23:18 PM PST by DGHoodini

It's being tweeted that the Iranian Amb to Norway has resigned and is seeking asylum in Oslo. So far I have not seen it in the MSM. It's beeing tweeted that it is been published in a Norwegian paper. Anyone read the language?

Things must be gettin real bad if Ambassadors are cutting and running, as one person posted.

You know...somehow I get the feeling that Ahmedinnerjacket will not be alive for very much longer........

He doesn't want to live. He wants to die a martyr destroying Israel in Armageddon with (apparently) a nuclear attack.

No joke. He believes the 12th Imam will come after Armageddon. He speaks of it often.

But if you know of some way to hurry the process without the Armageddon part then please do it.

I’m praying for the Iranian people, that they might throw off their oppressors, and establish a democracy.

In spite of the evil President of the United States of America, who does not care one iota for them.

If he does have a nuke, this may be his last chance to launch it at Israel.

It may also be why there are defections within.

They’ve discovered that Iran has a nuke ready to launch!

Just a thought...

Rather than resign, I’d like to see him keep the embassy and establish an Iranian regime in exile with other opposition members.

The religious dictators in Iran are not stupid, just severely misguided re: allah, etc. They have been at least two steps ahead of Bush and about five ahead of zer0. They probably have everything they need already, or at least if I were in charge that's the assumption I'd make.

Israel won't wait forever and they won't lay down and die for politically correct fools.

We are living in "interesting" times...

Babelfish translation from: NRK Norwegian TV story


The Consul is located in Oslo, but have than? not signed up for the Norwegian authorities. Mohammed Reza Heydari have jobs at the embassy in three? R.

Protest against government
- It was the Iranian government's treatment of protesters during Christmas which meant that I had no conscience? continue, “says Heydari told NRK.

Then, at least? Eight people were killed and sv? Rt many arrested.

He confirms that he has retired and are considering? ask the Norwegian government for help.

Concerned
The head of the Norwegian-Iranian st? Ttekomit? Rahman Saki is concerned Heydaris security.

- It is sv? Rt difficult because he will be punished severely if he returns to Iran. Not only he, but also? family, “said Saki.

A spokesman for the Iranian embassy in Oslo will not let himself be interviewed about what he calls l? Gn and l? See rumors.

The authorities’ treatment of protesters during Christmas was the Iranian diplomat to? decide.


Make of it what you will.

Seems he has resigned in a protest of treatment of protesters; but hasn't yet asked authorities for formal asylum, but plans to. Also, he fears a death sentence if he returns to Iran.

Something’s afoot. This ambassador has some inside dope.

Funny, I just watched a Star Trek episode where a Romulan Admiral defected. He was being pursued by a Romulan warship and barely made it to safety on the USS Enterprise.

It ended with the Admiral giving up all kinds of worthless misinformation and the Romulans having tested him for loyalty. His family (now the family of a traitor) was left behind on the home world in disgrace.

He had sacrificed everything for naught...wound up committing suicide.

I hope that someone like Der Spiegel does a long interview with him. The NEWS about Iran is simply infintesimal currently.
