Anybody notice how God is moving the Leaders of countries around the World in last couple weeks?........................................................ IsraelResign as soon as possible: Prime Minister Ehud Olmert will not make a hasty decision to resign after the Winograd Committee's report criticized him for such behavior during the Second Lebanon War. But if Thursday's demonstration attracts an unexpected number of people and the rebellions against him continue to gain strength, he could resign as early as next week. Olmert's resignation would set off a leadership battle in Kadima between Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, Transportation Minister Shaul Mofaz, Construction and Housing Minister Meir Sheetrit and possibly Vice Premier Shimon Peres. The winner of the race would become prime minister, pending the approval of the coalition partners and Acting President Dalia Itzik.......................................................................Military Government Tanks reported in Turkey's streets todayTurkey, the world's prime example of a mainly Muslim country as a secular democratic state, may be losing that status. For the first time, a member of an Islamic party stands poised to win the presidency. And the upcoming parliamentary elections are likely to result in yet another victory for the Islamic-oriented government. The ruling Justice and Development Party, led by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, has selected the party's No. 2 leader, Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul, as its candidate for the presidency. Secularists fear this may be the beginning of the end for the secular nature of the republic, as established by president Mustafa Kemal Ataturk more than 80 years ago. ...........................................France will hold elections to replace Chirac this monthJacques Chirac said farewell to an uncertain and divided France, which his critics accused him of tipping into decline........................................Brittons Tony Blair leaving office soon.......................................Syria, and Iran both feeling interal pressure to resign.,,,,,,,,,,This one is a little alarming the only thing more dangerous than a crazy Ahmadinejad, is a crazy Ahmadinejad backed into a corner espically when he believes he was choosen by Allah to bring world chaos to issue in the 12th Iman. ..............................ALLIANCE AIMS TO OUST AHMADINEJADApril 30, 2007The Jerusalem Post reports: “Anti-government forces are planning to deny Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad another term in office and break the grip of what they call the ‘militia state,’ on public life and personal freedom, it was reported on Monday.Opposition factions, democracy activists, and pro-reform clerics said they would bring together progressive parties loyal to former president Mohammad Khatami with so-called pragmatic conservatives led by Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani, the UK's The Guardian reported .The alliance aims to exploit the president's unpopularity, which is on the rise due to high unemployment, rising inflation and a looming crisis over petrol prices and possible rationing to win control of the Majlis in general elections which are due within 10 months.Parliament last week voted to reduce Ahmadinejad's term by holding presidential and parliamentary elections simultaneously next year.However, the move is likely to be vetoed by the Guardian Council.But opposition spokesmen said their broader objective was to bring down the fundamentalist regime by democratic means, transform Iran into a ‘normal country’, and prevent the need for any military or other US and western intervention.‘The past two years have been a very bitter time for Iran,’ The Guardian quoted Mohammad Atrianfar, a leading opposition figure with ties to Mr. Rafsanjani, as saying.‘Ahmadinejad has done everything upside down - politics, economy, foreign policy - putting all our achievements at risk. He has done a lot of damage at home and abroad.’Atrianfar said that a majority in the Majlis was now critical of the president and would certainly impeach him but for the support he enjoyed from the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei…”--------------------------------------------------------------------------
