When is August 22 August 1? Iran and the Return of the 12th Imam?

When is August 22 August 1?
A couple years ago, there was talk about August 22, Iranian policy, and the return of the 12th or Hidden Imam. Well, August 22 was the date of the Islamic calendar's Rajab 28, the day of the expected return of a great Islamic leader.

Iranian president: 'Big powers' going down

Iran's president on Tuesday blamed the U.S. and other "big powers" for global ills such as nuclear proliferation and AIDS, and accused them of exploiting the U.N. for their own gain and the developing world's loss.
[...]
"The big powers are going down," Ahmadinejad told foreign ministers of the Nonaligned Movement meeting in Tehran. "They have come to the end of their power, and the world is on the verge of entering a new, promising era."

Perhaps more talk like last time.
