Did God wipe Iran\’s Ayatollah ali khamenei off the map?  And – the irony here is delicious – did God do so during the Jewish holiday of Purim, which celebrates the thwarting of Jewish annihilation in Persia (which is present-day Iran)?

Rumors, and reports from “unconfirmed sources” – this article at breitbart.com being one of them – are suddenly floating that the lunatic, terrorist-supporting radical Islamic leader of Iran – the one who pulls all the strings regardless of who the public there thinks they elected President – had died. The cause is supposed to be prostate cancer.

I won\’t say more on this because rumors are just that.  Rumors.  We don\’t know for sure yet that he is dead.

But if he is, the world has a chance to be a better place. 

Since that prospect is subject to who takes over, I acknowledge that , given what Iran has become, the chances are very minimal.  But we can hope, can\’t we?
