The country\u2019s acting president, Mohammad Mokhber, a previously behind-the-scenes bureaucrat, could be a front-runner, because he&#8217;s already been seen meeting with Khamenei. Also discussed as possible aspirants are former hard-line President Mohammad Ahmadinejad and former reformist President Mohammad Khatami \u2014 but whether they&#8217;d be allowed to run is another question.<\/p>\n<p>The five-day registration period will close on Tuesday. The Guardian Council is expected to issue its final list of candidates within 10 days afterwards. That will allow for a shortened two-week campaign before the vote in late June.<\/p>\n<p>The new president will take office while the country now enriches uranium at nearly weapons-grade levels and hampers international inspections. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/world\/globaltalk\/iran-presidential-election\/2024\/05\/30\/id\/1166728\/\">https:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/world\/globaltalk\/iran-presidential-election\/2024\/05\/30\/id\/1166728\/<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Related to its nuclear situation, notice the following:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>IAEA: Iran\u2019s Enriched Uranium Stockpile Is 30x Bigger than Obama Nuclear Deal Allows<\/h2>\n<p class=\"subheading\">The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) issued a confidential report on Monday that discovered that Iran\u2019s stockpile of highly enriched uranium reached 30 times the limit Tehran accepted in former President Barack Obama\u2019s 2015 nuclear deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"a8d-pre\">The IAEA document, which has not been released to the public but was <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.voanews.com\/a\/iran-s-enriched-uranium-stockpile-grows-iaea-reports\/7628904.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external noreferrer\">reviewed<\/a> by Associated Press (AP) reporters, said Iran now has 6,201 kilograms of enriched uranium in its inventory \u2014 a dramatic increase of 675.8 pounds from the last IAEA report in February. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/national-security\/2024\/05\/28\/iaea-irans-enriched-uranium-stockpile-is-30x-bigger-than-obama-nuclear-deal-allows\/\">https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/national-security\/2024\/05\/28\/iaea-irans-enriched-uranium-stockpile-is-30x-bigger-than-obama-nuclear-deal-allows\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This should not be a surprise to long-time readers of this COGwriter Church of God News page.<\/p>\n<p>Notice something posted here in December 2023:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>December 27, 2013<\/p>\n<div>TEHRAN (Tasnim) \u2013 Iran is working on the development of a new generation of centrifuges, the country\u2019s top nuclear official said, adding that tests on the new machines have not been done.<\/div>\n<p>\u201cA new generation of centrifuges is being built, but they should undergo all tests before mass production,\u201d Head of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali Akbar Salehi said on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Iran possesses some 19,000 of different types of centrifuges.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting Iran\u2019s impressive achievements in the field of nuclear technology, Salehi said the Islamic Republic in now among the countries with the capability to carry out \u201call fuel (production) stages from exploration to ore dressing and production of uranium fuel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a recent development, Iran allowed the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to inspect its nuclear sites. The move is believed to be the first concrete step under a cooperation agreement signed in November between the Vienna-based UN agency and Iran to dispel concerns about Tehran\u2019s nuclear program. \u00a0h<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tasnimnews.com\/English\/Home\/Single\/232487\">ttp:\/\/www.tasnimnews.com\/English\/Home\/Single\/232487<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Now notice something I warned about this deal on November 24, 2013:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What this deal really does is give Iran some economic relief and time to upgrade its technology, while it agrees to get rid of some of its underdeveloped nuclear waste and centrifuges.\u00a0 This, in theory at least, will give Iran more money and more time to work on its nuclear technology, (<a title=\"Permanent Link to Iran makes nuclear deal that Obama praises: Israel and Saudi Arabia are not pleased\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/news\/prophecy\/iran-makes-nuclear-deal-that-obama-praises-israel-and-saudi-arabia-are-not-pleased\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Iran makes nuclear deal that Obama praises: Israel and Saudi Arabia are not pleased<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>A week later I posted:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>An \u2018interim\u2019 deal is in place that apparently will allow Iran to tap into some of its foreign bank accounts and\/or lift some of the economic sanctions against it.\u00a0 The deal will mean that Iran will give up some of its older nuclear centrifuges and enriched uranium.\u00a0 And if you believe Iran and the USA government, it also means that Iran will not be developing nuclear weapons at this time.\u00a0 In my view, this agreement will allow Iran to continue to perfect its technology so that it will be better able to produce nuclear weapons over time.\u00a0 (<a title=\"Permanent Link to BibleNewsProphecy: Iran in Prophecy\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/news\/prophecy\/biblenewsprophecy-iran-in-prophecy\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">BibleNewsProphecy: Iran in Prophecy<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, Iran has announced new nuclear centrifuges.<\/p>\n<p>Nuclear centrifuges basically help enrich uranium to the point that it can be used to develop nuclear energy or nuclear bombs.\u00a0 While Iran is publicly claiming the former, many believe that its real goal is to produce nuclear weapons, hence improved centrifuges will give it a better ability to make weapons.<\/p>\n<p>When some of the Iran nuclear deal was announced, I began to produce an article titled <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/iran-in-prophecy.htm\">Iran in Prophecy<\/a>, and also put together a related YouTube video also titled <a dir=\"ltr\" title=\"Iran In Prophecy\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pFZuBX3Tbv4\" data-sessionlink=\"feature=c4-feed-u&amp;ei=RZ-WUsWZIqSBsgelnIG4Bw&amp;ved=CAwQvxs\">Iran In Prophecy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As I mentioned before, thus far the interim agreement appears to be (carnally-speaking) a good deal for Iran. However, in the long-run, Iran will likely suffer for decisions it will make, at least partially because of this deal.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, parts of this deal put Israel and the USA at risk for terrorist attacks from \u2018dirty bombs\u2019 (bombs that have radioactive components) and possibly nuclear bombs in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Iran\u2019s use of such items may well result in its neutralization.\u00a0 As regular readers of the COGwriter news page are aware, I have been warning for some time that a regional war involving Iran, Israel, the USA, and\/or Syria seems likely.<\/p>\n<p>Since Iran, however, is NOT really south of Jerusalem (though it may support such a king per certain interpretations of the peoples listed in Ezekiel 30:1-9), it will not be the final <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/south.htm\">King of the South<\/a> of Bible prophecy (cf. Daniel 11:40-43). Because of that, I have tended to believe that Iran may somehow get \u201cneutralized\u201d before this final king rises up. A serious attack by the USA and\/or Israel may neutralize Iran and much of its influence\u2013but Iran might hit hard first.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNeutralizing\u201d Iran would allow most of the other Islamic states (like Saudi Arabia and Egypt) to continue to exist (Syria might not do well per Isaiah 17:1) and allow for the rising of the prophesied King of the South to rise up (revolution in Iran, is also another possibility, for its \u201cneutralization\u201d).\u00a0 Israel has stated in the past that it will stop Iranian nuclear ambitions whether or not the USA will support it doing so.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, Iran may have a role in Isaiah 22:6-9 and this will not bode well for Israel (and probably ultimately not Iran). The USA, itself, may also be damaged.<\/p>\n<p>The top leadership of Iran has a Shi\u2019ite Muslim agenda, which they have concluded includes causing chaos and war. I, for one, do not believe that Iran\u2019s leaders have given up on their goals of Islamic domination. And that includes people like former president\u00a0 Mohammad Ahmadinejad who hopes to regain political power again.<\/p>\n<p>The situation with Iran is much more dangerous than most realize.<\/p>\n<p><em>Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/iran-in-prophecy.htm\">Iran in Prophecy<\/a> Is Iran in Bible prophecy?
