The Case of the Disappearing Fatwa

Michael Ledeen on dissent from the mullacracy. Forgive me, this is no laughing matter, but it cracks me up:

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei—against whom Iranians chant "Death to the Dictator!" at public gatherings and nightly from their rooftops—has sought to reaffirm his authority. Late last month he issued a fatwa declaring that his opinions had a status equal to those of the prophet Mohammed. The fatwa caused such consternation that it was removed from his website, then quietly returned a few days later.

Hey, just like the White House site!
