Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is currently hospitalized in serious condition at a hospital in Tehran, according to unofficial reports.
Khamenei is suffering from prostate cancer that has reportedly spread to the rest of his body.
Earlier this week, the French newspaper Le Figaro quoted Western intelligence officials as saying that the cancer was discovered about ten years ago. "The cancer is in stage four, in other words has spread." Doctors estimate "he has two years left to live."

You don’t think Obama would go himself?

Two years to live? They misspelled “months”
Maybe the people can now rebel during the power vacuum and get their country back. ( I could say the same thing about the USA)

Valerie Jarrett could walk right into this role. She was born in Iran, too.

Oh yes if he could. I just don’t know if he would try right now.

Maybe he can sit on one of his “centrifuges of peace” for radiation treatment.

This is a big deal. He is only the second one. Succeeded Khomeini in 1989.

One more thing. I seriously doubt they want him there.

A huge contingent of Cabinet members and White House staffers, no doubt. Maybe Malia and Sharia will even get to put on headscarves and go.

Hmm...sounds familiar. Huey Chavez did smell sulfur before he croaked. He thought it was somebody else.

However, Khamenei himself was not considered to have sufficient religious expertise when he was elected in 1989, so he relied on the Revolutionary Guards and a constitutional revision in order to become the supreme leader. In other words, he assumed power through a military coup.
