Iranian Supreme Leader's Health Worsening
[National Review] Michael Ledeen - There is a very intense power struggle going on inside the Iranian regime, catalyzed by recent evidence of the worsening health of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. In considerable pain from his cancer, for which he consumes a considerable quantity of opium syrup, Khamenei recently was forced to spend 2-3 days in a Tehran hospital. His doctors told him several months ago that he was unlikely to survive much past the end of March, and he seems to be more or less on schedule.
