Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will appear in parliament next month to be grilled on his handling of the economy, state radio reported on Tuesday, after lawmakers took the unprecedented action of summoning him. Around 100 members of the 290-seat assembly signed a petition to call up Ahmadinejad, in what analysts saw as part of deepening political infighting among the Islamic Republic's hardline rulers before a parliamentary election on March 2. Lawmakers had threatened in the past to summon Ahmadinejad, but their attempts failed, sometimes because they were blocked by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's top authority. "Ahmadinejad will be immediately informed about the decision ...he has to appear in parliament a month after being officially informed," said lawmaker Mohammad Reza Bahonar.

Things aren't getting better in Tehran as the sanctions begin to work some. If Iran is selling their oil or bartering it or whatever it might not make much of a dent in their pocketbook. But right now it seems like it is. There's only one way to take care of this problem and that is militarily. Hopefully it will be soon as I don't want to live in a world with nuclear mad mullahs in Tehran.

They were talking about this for a while ago haven't they? Back before any of these sanctions about misuse of funds.
