Breakthrough in relations with Iran

Months of intense secret diplomacy between the U.S. and Iran has produced a breakthrough in relations between the two countries.

The United Sates will drop plans to impose sanctions and will remove Iran from the "Axis of Evil." In return Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has declared that the United States will no longer be referred to as "The Great Satan."

"As a reflection of our warmer feelings toward America, we will refer to the U.S. as the 'Middle Level Fallen Angel Azazel,' " explained Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. "But arrogant imperialists and Zionists should not take us for fools. At the first sign of aggression, we stand ready at a moment's notice to ratchet up the label to "Impotent Little Red Devil with Pitchfork."

The announcement was timed to coincide with the date--Nov. 5, 1979--when Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini first declared America "The Great Satan."
