Iran: "We will not ask the West: 'Infidels, may I'"

Screen grab: Fox News

Iran's President Hassan Rouhani, in a defiant message to President Trump, said that Iran will seek "no one's permission" to build missiles. 

He then went on to say that "The strengthening of the capability of the Iranian armed forces . . . is only for defending the country and we will ask no one's permission to build up the armed forces, and to build missiles and aircraft." 

This is what is known as 'taqiyya' or 'religious deception' in the language of Islam. It is the systematic lying to the infidel and should be considered an integral part of Islamic tactics. A good example is the statement that "Islam is a religion of peace."

The actual root meaning of the word 'taqiyya' is:  to remain faithful, but in effect means "dissimulation." Quranic authority (3:28 and 16:106) allows Muslims to conform outwardly to the demands of non-Islamic government, while internally "remaining faithful" to whatever the Muslim conceives to be proper Islam as he waits for Muslims to gain in strength and are able to fight the infidel. 

Even Mohammad said "War is deceit;"  Rouhani knows this. In fact, taqiyya has its origins in Shi'a Islam, although it's practiced by non-Shi'a too.

Rouhani added that Iran never had "aggressive aims, but peace is not a one-way road and if we decide to be peaceful the other party . . . may not. So there is a need for vigilance."

When Rouhani retires, he could get a job on a farm as a manure spreader.

Chants of "Death to America!" "Death to Israel!" are not a road to peace. But when the Twelfth Imam (aka Muslim messiah; aka Imam Zaman) returns, there will be peace, Shi'a Muslims believe.

An article in the Daily Caller (March 16) by Reza Kahlili, says that a leading Iranian ayatollah, [Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani] stated that the "Islamic messiah 'will behead Western leaders.'"

Iran's leaders want to speed up the return of Imam Zaman so that in the end of times, there will be peace in the world.

Of course there will be--no life .  .  .  no sounds .  .  .  just peace.

On a happier note, Rouhani is facing reelection and needs to show the voters that he's willing to go up against the West because of the criticism he received saying he was too willing to appease the world after the Tehran deal to curb nuclear power in exchange for lifting economic sanctions.

On a less happier note, the man running against him is likely to be Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a Holocaust denier and staunch hater of Christians, Israel, Jews, the U.S., the West, gays, lesbians and puppies.

Sanctions on Iran to be imposed by US

Now that Iran has for at least the twelfth time violated UN resolution 2231, and Donald Trump has replaced Barack Obama as president, the United States is expected to announce new sanctions on multiple Iranian entities will be imposed on the largest terrorist-funding nation. The exact nature of these sanctions may be announced as early as Friday.

Any new sanctions would not violate the Iran nuclear deal of 2015, but would be related directly to terrorism-related activities and ballistic missile-related activities that are under separate U.S. executive orders that are in existence. 

Earlier in the week, national security adviser Michael Flynn put Iran "on notice." This was echoed on Thursday by President Trump and we have made it clear that the U.S. will act against Iran unless it ceases ballistic missile testing and supporting the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Trump tweeted, "Iran has been formally PUT ON NOTICE for firing a ballistic missile. Should have been thankful for the terrible deal the U.S. made with them!"

Disappointed!

The President wrote another tweet saying: "Iran was on its last legs and ready to collapse until the U.S. came along and gave it a life-line in the form of the Iran Deal: $150 billion."

President Trump had the money figure wrong--the Obama badministration gave Iran access to about $100 billion of its own money that had been frozen in foreign bank accounts. We did not give them any of our own money.

On Wednesday, when Flynn said: "As of today, we are officially putting Iran on notice," he had accused them of threatening our allies and spreading instability throughout the Middle East and faulting the Obama badministration for doing too little.

Flynn wasn't specific by what he meant by "on notice," but senior Trump officials said they were seriously considering a "range of options." These include economic measures and greater support for Iran's adversaries. It is not clear what, if any, military measures are being considered.

Iran's acting commander of the Revolutionary Guard, General Hossein Salami told Tasnim news agency that Iran will "never change direction by a world power's demand, and our missile and non-missile power will be updated every day."

He made no mention of the return of the Twelfth Imam and the Iranian people's willingness to die to speed up 'the end of times.'

A majority of Shi'ite Muslims believe in the "12th Imam" born in 868 A.D. and that he was place by God into hiding (known as occultation) until the day of judgment. Many Shi'ites refer to the 12 Imam as the Mahdi (Arabic for "messiah" or "guide").

Though Islam cannot say when the 12th Imam will make his grand entrance again, they think when he comes, he will end the misery of his people.

Ray Tallman, director of the school of intercultural studies at Golden Gate Seminary said the major eschatological question for Shi'ite Muslims is when the Mahdi's return will take place, and many believe the time is near.

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad not only believes in the return of the Mahdi, but that the return is the responsibility of the Iranian government to prepare the country for his return.

In spite of the fact that Shi'ites and Sunnis frequently battle each other, they both have common efforts to destroy Israel, which is a critical part of Islam taking over the world and ushering in the Mahdi.

So you can imagine the Iranians are not afraid of developing nuclear weaponry and using it. In fact, many of the more religious Shi'ites welcome the idea of doing so to bring the 12th Imam out of the "religious closet,' so to speak.

What the Trump administration is doing is totally necessary to weaken this crazy nation of wannabe Paradise-dwellers. They are putting them on notice telling them they need to rething their behavior. 

We are not going to stand for it anymore and we're not going to be predictable, like the guy who came before Trump and took his red crayons with him when he left.

Obama plays ostrich with Iran buying nuclear materials

As far as the Obama administration and Valerie Jarrett are concerned, Iran can do no wrong. 

After receiving recent German intelligence indicating that Iran has stepped up efforts to get their slimy hands on nuclear materials (in spite of their promise to discontinue this pursuit as part of the nuclear deal of last summer) Obama is pooh-poohing the report, according to one U.S. official's comments to the Free Beacon.

Germany's internal intelligence agency reported that sources have actually witnessed 'extensive Iranian attempts" to procure illicit materials, "especially goods that can be used in the field of nuclear technology." It goes on to say that Iran is breaching the agreement under the nuclear deal and not respecting the most critical commitments they've made.

What a surprise.

Even illegal immigrant hugger German Chancellor Angela Merkel said this week that the findings shows "Iran continued unabated to develop its rocket programs in conflict with the relevant provisions of the UN Security Council," especially the resolution that bars Iran from pursuing ballistic missile technology.

The report and warnings were met with the same lackadaisical response the Obama administration shows with all things Islamic: a giant yawn.

The administration declined to comment on the intel and told the Free Beacon that it will continue to view Iran as complying with the nuclear accord, a clear example of how Obama puts politics over national security all the time.

"We believe that Iran is continuing to meet its [Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action] commitments," a State Department official said.

When pressed to explain how this compared with Germany's warnings, the official said the administration "would refer you to German authorities for any comment about reports attributed to them," sounding a lot like Loretta Lynch referring to James Comey.

One CIA official declined to comment on the German intelligence findings and whether they agree with U.S. intelligence assessments.

Many lawmakers view the German intelligence as proof that Iran is in violation of international accords and the Obama administration stands in sharp contrast of that notion. The evidence of Iran's intentions is mounting.

I could go through a whole litany of lawmakers who believe Obama is putting us in a dangerous spot which will culminate in Iran getting a nuclear weapon, but I will spare you. Suffice it to say that the more rope we give Iran, the higher they will go to hang us with it.

There should be no doubts by the American public that Iran's ultimate goal is to develop a nuclear weapon and use it. Doing so will guarantee the coming of the Twelfth Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi.

In order to provide protection for a nation, one must err on the side of caution or risk calamity. Obama is definitely not erring on the side of caution by dismissing Germany's intelligence.

Obama is putting America in a collision course with Iran.
