Right on cue, Iran has proven just how woefully ignorant western
powers are to the true motives of those pushing for controversial
nuclear concessions.
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has released a
416 page book
blasting the existence of a Jewish state and touting a plan to “reclaim
Muslim lands.” “Palestine” labels the Holocaust “a propaganda ploy,”
describes Israel as a “cancerous tumor,” and details how Khamenei
believes Iran can bring about the end of both Israel, and the United
States’ claim to global hegemony.
The crux of
Khamenei’s plan? The insane assertion that Israel has no right to exist as a state:
He uses three words. One is “nabudi” which means “annihilation.” The
other is “imha” which means “fading out,” and, finally, there is “zaval”
meaning “effacement.”
Khamenei claims that his strategy for the destruction of Israel is
not based on anti-Semitism, which he describes as a European phenomenon.
His position is instead based on “well-established Islamic principles.”
One such principle is that a land that falls under Muslim rule, even
briefly, can never again be ceded to non-Muslims. What matters in Islam
is ownership of a land’s government, even if the majority of inhabitants
are non-Muslims.
Of course, Khamenei isn’t suggesting that he’ll simply push a button
and sink Israel into the Mediterranean. Oh no—he’s planning on dragging
this out in the worst way possible.
From 2011: Why Obama Betrayed the Iranian People
Feckless: lacking initiative or strength of character; irresponsible:
In
2009, demonstrators filled the streets of Iran, denouncing the regime
and crying out for freedom. It was a glorious opportunity for the
leader of the free world to demonstrate his support for free people
everywhere and strike a decisive blow against the bloody regime that had
considered itself at war with the United States for three decades.
"But
Barack Obama didn't help them. Quite the contrary. The leader of the
free world was too busy extending his hand to those same mullahs.
"It
was monstrous when Obama stood by and did nothing during the abortive
Iranian revolution; instead, he bought ice cream and posed for photo ops
on the golf course while the only revolution against Islamic rule in a
Muslim country was taking flight in Iran.
"History will not be kind to Obama for his siding with evil and brutally aggressive oppression over freedom."
Obama sided with the oppressors of these Iranians.
