November: Persian Preferences

/in , , , , , , /by

Translated into Persian, the search for peace and regional stability—the oft-aired aspiration of the Biden-Harris administration—means giving Tehran the bomb.

In a disconcerting display of barefaced side-stepping, evasion, and diversion of a simple interview question, Kamala Harris provided more cause for concern for those warning of the grave consequences for Israel if she should win the November election for the U.S. presidency.

Treating Israel with disrespect?

During a lengthy interview on CBS’s 60 Minutes, Harris balked at referring to Israel’s longest-serving Prime Minister—by far the nation’s most popular political figure with Israeli voters—as a long-term ally of the United States.

In reply to host Bill Whitaker’s question, “…do we have a real close ally in Prime Minister Netanyahu?” Harris’s blatantly evasive response was: “I think, with all due respect, the better question is: Do we have an important alliance between the American people and the Israeli people? And the answer to that question is yes“.

Harris’s crass attempt to differentiate between the head of Israel’s democratically-elected leader, and the Israeli people who elected him, indicates one of two things—or worse, both. It either reflected hopeless ignorance of the political process in the Israeli polity, or it revealed her utter contempt for the Jewish state, seeing it as nothing more than a “banana republic” in which its electorate can be disregarded, by-passed, and supplanted by more pliant minority elites, who oppose the majority-elected government.

Dodging the issues

Adding to the reasons for Israel’s accumulating alarm, was Harris’s attitude to the Islamic Republic of Iran. True, when asked to identify America’s “greatest adversary” she somewhat surprisingly, singled out the tyrannical theocracy in Tehran , rather than China. However, she refused to specify what action—if any—she would instigate to thwart it from achieving its malevolent goals. Thus, despite the fact that she stipulated that “ensur[ing] that Iran never achieves the ability to be a nuclear power…is one of my highest priorities”, she refused to commit as to how she would prevent that from coming about. Indeed, when pressed as whether she “would take military action” to foil Iranian nuclear designs, her evasive response was “I’m not going to talk about hypotheticals…”

This display of open reluctance is comforting news for the mullahs in Tehran. Indeed, as one WSJ piece asserts: “Neither diplomacy nor sanctions will stop the advance [towards Iran’s nuclear goals]”. Despondently, it observes: “Harris probably knows this. The search for peace and regional stability, the oft-heard aspiration of U.S. policy in the Middle East, now means, when translated into Persian, giving Tehran the bomb”.

In similar vein, an analysis in the British Telegraph accuses “the feckless Biden-Harris administration” of “shameful betrayal” of Israel on the nuclear issue—and of “doing nothing to prevent this nightmare from happening…even pressuring Israel to refrain from taking action against Tehran’s nuclear programme”.

Israelis’ overwhelming preference

Given the Democrats’ aversion to any action more robust than diplomacy for the resolution of the Iran nuclear impasse, it is unlikely that they would abandon negotiations no matter what the Iranian provocations or transgressions.

It is thus hardly surprising that, according to a recent ABC poll, Israelis prefer Donald Trump, Harris’s opponent in the November elections, at a rate of well over 2 to 1, while on security issues, the ratio is 3 to 1 in favor of Trump.

Indeed, for Israel, the indulgent approach of the Biden-Harris regime is a matter of critical—indeed, existential—importance. Thus, informed sources charge that, since the Biden-Harris incumbency, Tehran increased the number of centrifuges almost 15 times, its uranium enrichment from 5% to 60%, and more than quadrupled its oil production.

But beyond Harris’s Obama-like docility toward the Ayatollahs, there are additional reasons for grave apprehension regarding the murky relations that underlie the support for Harris’s presidential campaign. In part, this involves her endorsement of Armenia in its clash with Azerbaijan in an attempt to curry favor with the influential US Armenian diaspora.

While it is understandable that diasporic communities seek to maintain warm supportive sentiments toward their motherland, this cannot conceal the troubling behavior of Armenia in recent years, including acting as a conduit for circumventing US-led sanctions against Iran and Russia. Indeed, in light of Tehran’s ongoing endeavor to enhance its influence with Yerevan, Israeli sources warn that Armenia could be on its way to becoming a new Iranian proxy. Especially worrying is the reported $3 billion security collaboration and covert arms deal between the two countries.

One can, thus, only wonder whether Harris is unaware of the pernicious role Armenia has hitherto played in undermining Western objectives, or whether her political ambitions have made her insensitive towards them. Indeed, in her apparent clamor to find favor with voters of Armenian descent, Harris has even exceeded the demands of Armenia itself! Thus, she essentially called for a return to the pre-2023 status quo ante in Nagorno Karabakh—notwithstanding that the Armenian government has reiterated that for it, “the Karabakh issue is closed”.

For Jews—a stark choice

Although Israeli officialdom has scrupulously avoided taking sides in American elections, there can be little doubt that the outcome of the November poll has crucial importance for the Jewish state. After all, beyond the niceties of diplomatic decorum, for Israel there are life-and-death issues at stake.

Thus. despite professions of Democratic support for Israel, there are mounting reasons for believing that the mullahs of the theocratic tyranny in Tehran would applaud a Harris victory in November. Conversely, there is emerging consensus that the radical rulers of the Islamic Republic view the election of Trump, who in the past brought them to the brink of financial collapse, with increasing trepidation.

For the Jews—and the Jewish state –the choice could not be starker.

Iran: “Death to America” Since 1979 [+ Video]

/in , , /by

Iran Truth reports:

The Islamic Republic of Iran is a danger to the security and safety of the United States and its friends and allies across the globe. The Iranian regime is run by Jihadists bent on spreading their “Islamic revolution” around the world. It has repeatedly been described by the US State Department as “the world’s most active state sponsor of terrorism.”

Iran has also demonstrated an unwavering commitment to building nuclear weapons, enriching uranium in violation of international treaties and proliferating ballistic missiles with which to deliver weapons of mass destruction.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration treats Iran as a rational partner for peace. Since Mr. Obama became president he has been so desperate to achieve a nuclear agreement with Iran that his administration has been prepared to make any concession and ignore all bad behavior by Iran to get a legacy nuclear agreement. Obama administration officials have also repeatedly misled and lied about what they have agreed to in the nuclear talks with Iran.

In short, President Obama’s nuclear diplomacy with Iran will concede the bomb to Tehran.

The world cannot afford a nuclear-armed Iran run by Mullahs who believe that triggering a series of cataclysmic events will bring about the return of the 12th Imam to cleanse the world of infidels and those who are not sufficiently faithful. That means most of you reading this, Muslims and non-believers alike.

President Obama stood in front of the camera this morning and lied to the entire world. Click here to read the full transcript of his statement on the Iranian nuclear deal.

One truth in Obama’s statement is, “Iran currently has a stockpile that can produce up to 10 nuclear weapons.”

Benjamin Netanyahu stood in front of a camera and warned the entire free world of the consequences of this toothless deal.

In the terror enclave known as Boston, the son of a police captain was arrested and charged with terrorist activity.

Islamic State could transport Nuclear Weapon from Nigeria into U.S. through Mexico

/in , , /by

This very real threat was corroborated in March by Gen. John Kelly, commander of U.S. Southern Command (Southcom), who “warned that Islamic terrorist groups such as ISIS could exploit the capabilities and knowledge of Latin American smuggling networks to infiltrate the U.S. through Mexico and possibly bring in weapons of mass destruction.”

by Edwin Mora, Breitbart News, June 3, 2015:

The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), in the latest edition of its propaganda magazine, indicated that it could purchase a nuclear weapon in Pakistan, take it to Nigeria, and then smuggle it into the U.S. through Mexico by using existing trafficking networks in Latin America.

In an op-ed article published in the ninth edition of ISIS’ Dabiq magazine released in late May, the jihadist group claims it could transport a nuclear device in the same way illicit drugs are smuggled into Europe through West Africa, adding that Boko Haram’s presence in Nigeria could facilitate the transaction.

The Nigeria-based Islamic terrorist group, Boko Haram, pledged allegiance to ISIS in March.

In March, Gen. John Kelly, commander of U.S. Southern Command (SouthCom), warned that Islamic terrorist groups such as ISIS could exploit the capabilities and knowledge of Latin American smuggling networks to infiltrate the U.S. through Mexico and possibly bring in weapons of mass destruction.

The general, in October 2014, acknowledged that illegal drugs from South America move “through West Africa, up the Maghreb and into Western Europe,” adding that ISIS enemy al Qaeda and its affiliates take “a lot of money to allow it to flow.”

According to the alleged author of the Dabiq op-ed article, kidnapped British photojournalist John Cantlie, ISIS could smuggle a nuke into the U.S. by using the same route and reversing the flow— moving the nuke from West Africa into South America, from where it could be transported into the United States through Mexico.

“Let me throw a hypothetical operation onto the table,” Cantlie wrote in the article entitled “The Perfect Storm.” “The Islamic State has billions of dollars in the bank, so they call on their wilāyah [province] in Pakistan to purchase a nuclear device through weapons dealers with links to corrupt officials in the region.” He addded:

The weapon is then transported over land until it makes it to Libya, where the mujāhidīn [fighters] move it south to Nigeria. Drug shipments from Columbia bound for Europe pass through West Africa, so moving other types of contraband from East to West is just as possible.The nuke and accompanying mujāhidīn arrive on the shorelines of South America and are transported through the porous borders of Central America before arriving in Mexico and up to the border with the United States.

“From there it’s just a quick hop through a smuggling tunnel and hey presto, they’re mingling with another 12 million ‘illegal’ aliens in America with a nuclear bomb in the trunk of their car,” he also wrote.

If not a nuke, ISIS could easily smuggle in “a few thousand tons of ammonium nitrate explosive” that is easy to manufacture, said the article.

Cantlie wrote that ISIS, which started as a movement in Iraq, has suddenly morphed into a global phenomenon that the West and the democratic world as a whole is ill-prepared to handle.

He said that Boko Haram controls most of Nigeria, home to “an exhausted and smashed national army that is now in a virtual state of collapse”.

While testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee in March, Gen. Kelly noted, “Last year, ISIS adherents posted discussions on social media calling for the infiltration of the U.S. southern border. Thankfully, we have not yet seen evidence of this occurring, but I am deeply concerned that smuggling networks are a vulnerability that terrorists could seek to exploit.”

“While there is not yet any indication that the criminal networks involved in human and drug trafficking are interested in supporting the efforts of terrorist groups, these networks could unwittingly, or even wittingly, facilitate the movement of terrorist operatives or weapons of mass destruction toward our borders, potentially undetected and almost completely unrestricted,” he added.

The general, speaking at the National Defense University in Washington, D.C. in October 2014, warned that Latin American drug cartels were working with jihadist groups in West Africa, namely Sunni group Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and its affiliates.

Is John Kerry a Moron?

John Kerry testifying before Congress on Vietnam War.

I can recall John Kerry, Obama’s Secretary of State, from the days he testified to a congressional committee and slandered his fellow soldiers as the spokesman for Veterans Against the Vietnam War in 1971. I was appalled then and my opinion of the man has not changed since those days. I opposed the war, too, but I did not blame it on the men who were conscripted to fight it, nor did I believe the charges he leveled against some of them.

These days Kerry is engaged in securing an agreement with the Iranians, if not to stop their program to make their own nuclear weapons than to slow it to a later date. Never mind that the Iranian government is listed by our own government as a leading sponsor of terrorism worldwide or that they have signed such agreements in the past and then tossed out the inspectors.

Kerry is convinced that the Obama administration can get an agreement that is, in his own words, “not legally binding”, nor is it a treaty that the U.S. Senate would have to vote for or against. In point of fact, President Obama can make the deal—sign the agreement—just as Presidents have done for over two hundred years. It can then be abrogated by whoever the next President will be.

Why Obama and Kerry are doing this defies my understanding. It gives the Iranians more time to reach nuclear capability. It is opposed by every nation in the Middle East. It puts every nation within reach of Iran’s missiles at risk and it virtually guarantees the destruction of Israel, a goal of Iran’s Islamic Revolution from the day it was born. Kerry is negotiating with people who took our diplomats hostage in 1979 and have played a role in the deaths of many Americans since then.

Is John Kerry a moron? I think so.

I asked myself this question in regard to another area of U.S. policy which the Secretary of State is also championing even if millions around the world have concluded otherwise.

On March 2nd, Kerry addressed the Atlantic Council in Washington, D.C, telling them what he has been saying in many forums. Let us understand that “climate change” is the name being used to replace “global warming”, because the Earth has been in a cooling cycle for the past 18 years or so. And let us understand that “climate change” has been happening for 4.5 billion years.

Kerry said, “So when science tells us that our climate is changing and human beings are largely causing that change, by what right do people stand up and just say, ‘Well, I dispute that’ or ‘I deny that elementary truth’?”

The problem with this is that human beings are not causing the planet’s climate change. Forces far greater than humans are involved, not the least of which is the Sun.

As for science, its most fundamental methodology is to constantly challenge the various ‘truths’ put forward as theories until they can be proved to be true by being independently reproduced. Nothing about the “global warming” theories has been true. All of the computer models on which it was based have been proven inaccurate. In some cases, they were deliberately rigged.

On television meteorologists remind us that every day, indeed, from morning to night, the temperatures of the area about which they are reporting are in a constant state of change. They show us satellite photography and mapping that demonstrates how dynamic the weather is on any spot on Earth. The climate, however, is measured in decades and centuries. Every one of the doomsday predictions of the global warming “scientists” and propagandists have been wrong.

The enemies of the use of energy to enhance and improve the lives of the residents of Earth began to claim in the 1970s and 80s that carbon dioxide (CO2) was threatening the climate.

At best, CO2 is a very minor element of the Earth’s atmosphere, about 0.04%, which gets it rated as “a trace gas.” As such, it plays no role with regard to the climate.

Kerry asserted that climate change is “one of the biggest threats facing our planet today” and should be ranked with terrorism, epidemics, poverty and nuclear proliferation…” Oh, wait! Isn’t this the same Secretary of State negotiating with Iran to allow it to become a nuclear power?

And what “solution” does he offer to reduce the “threat” of climate change? Kerry urged that the U.S. transition away from “dirty sources of energy” such as coal, oil and natural gas.

Writing in a recent issue of The Wall Street Journal, Matt Ridley noted that “In 2015, about 87% of the energy that the world consumed came from fossil fuels, a figure that—remarkably—was unchanged from 10 years before. This roughly divides into three categories of fuel and three categories of use: oil used mainly for transport, gas used mainly for heating, and coal used mainly for electricity.”

Fossil fuels have made the difference between modern life and burning cow dung to cook dinner. A billion people on Earth still do not have electricity.

Less obvious, but significantly more threatening is the White House effort to get the U.S. signed up for the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and its International Climate Justice tribunal. This is a follow-up to the 1977 Kyoto Protocol that was unanimously rejected by the U.S. Senate. Why? Because such treaties threaten the sovereignty of the U.S. and, just as importantly, because the entire United Nation’s climate program is a huge fraud.

This is what John Kerry wants the U.S. to agree to, just like the Iran deal, and just to be sure the U.S. Senate, as mandated by the U.S. Constitution, doesn’t have a say in it, he and the President are calling these deals anything other than a treaty.

Is John Kerry a moron? Maybe not as dumb as he seems to be, but surely cynical and devious.

Unfortunately, he is the Secretary of State.

Are Bombs Hidden Throughout America?

/in , , /by

Is it possible Islamic terrorists have planted radioactive or biological bombs in cities across America?  I think it is highly probable.  Never before in the history of America have political leaders been so reluctant to fight our enemy (Islam and Muslim Terrorists).

Of course we do have a very weak leader as President and this has to factor into our passive reaction to Islamic terrorism.  Although Obama is weak, there are still Islamic terrorists who would have an advantage in America if they could blackmail U.S. politicians.

It is not very difficult to hide bombs with enormous explosive energy inside a small place.  It is not beyond the mindset of Muslim terrorists to plan ahead for mass casualties of their enemy. Remember the Boston Marathon bombing? A small yet very effective attack by Muslims.

Can Americans imagine what would happen if a dirty radioactive or biological bomb was planted in schools across the United States in shopping malls, or in major sports stadiums?

In 2011 CBS Reported on 160 Nuclear Bombs Hidden in America:

Attorney Tracy Rizzo was the recipient of one of 25 threatening letters claiming there are nuclear bombs hidden all over the country.

Attorney Tracy Rizzo was alarmed. A number of days ago, an envelope, with a Chicago postmark and a hand-written address to her private investigations firm, came in the mail.
The letter inside said, “The Al-Qaeda organization has planted 160 nuclear bombs throughout the U.S. in schools, stadiums, churches, stores, financial institutions and government buildings.” It also said, “This is a suicide mission for us.”

This theory is not a new concept or threat from Muslim terrorists.  If bombs are already planted in America, this of course hinders our ability to effectively fight Islamic based terrorism.

Hopefully a trustworthy journalist from a trustworthy media network will investigate this theory in greater detail and report the results to the American public.  The only hindrance is that America has few trustworthy journalists and even fewer trustworthy media outlets.
