Iran's Intelligence Minister warns Muslims of US, Israeli threats to their security

This just in: Iran is facing a terror threat! But not, of course, from the Islamic radicals they nurture and encourage. Iran faces — you guessed it — an Israeli/American conspiracy.

From the Islamic Republic News Agency, with thanks to Louise:

Tehran, Nov 13, IRNA -- Iran`s intelligence minister sounded out Muslim nations Saturday over threats to their security, which he said were being orchestrated by Israel and the United States.

"Today, the security of Muslim countries in the region is being
threatened by a blind terrorism scourge, Israel and America," said Ali
Younessi while hosting Muslim diplomats, based in Tehran, at a banquet
to break their fast.

"The diplomatic and security apparatus of the Muslim countries now
need cooperation more than any time," he said as he touted his
ministry`s achievements in unveiling plots against Iran`s security.
"We have either stemmed or controlled some dangerous roots which
were being tendered by America and certain Western countries," he
said, outlining plots to stir up sectarian violence in the country.
"The threat of religious and sectarian wars is not less than
terrorism and we all know well that the origin of these conspiracies
lie with the intelligence services of America, Britain and Israel.

What a pity there isn't enough Coalition forces
available to topple the Mullahs in Iran! Here's hoping the West finds a way to do something about Iran's nukes. Or maybe Israel will show the way..?

How come when one islamic country is under threat the leaders of said country always declare something along the lines of:

"Today, the security of Muslim countries in the region is being
threatened by a blind terrorism scourge, Israel and America,"

...note the wording : "muslim countries" plural.... so as to rouse all muslims. An attack on one muslim country is an attack on the entire ummah. This is why these people are so dangerous, this is why we must treat all muslims with the same eye of suspicion, because even the most moderate muslim fears allah, and as a result fears that to not take the side of the ummah is to betray allah. Therefore if a jihad is called for (which it has many times...against the west in particular), all muslims are expected to play some part in it, moderate or not.

Think about it , when the balkans war was at it's peak in the nineties, we didn't have the Pope or the Arch Bishop of Cantebury declaring :
" the security of the christian world is in danger from the croats...."
Nor did they try to rouse the christians of the world to fight against Serbia or Croatia. And that is because, christians, despite being light years ahead in civility, are not so obsessive of their religion that they believe they must join together to fight the enemy of any one christian race, at any one time; and perhaps more importantantly believe their god loves all mankind and creation equally. Also christianity is not as imposing.

Anyway enough of the ranting. The subject is Iran.
I heard on the news this morning that the iranians are halting their uranium production ,but heard also that there is some kind of deal going with the EU,to give them other means of nuclear power production. I think it is a mistake to let Iran have nuclear production technology of any kind.
This "security risk" mentioned in the article, is possibly an excuse for Iran to begin it's uranium production again.

Lets not overlook the irony from France staying out of the Iraq invasion without the U.N. approval.
France just finished a military attack on the Ivory Coast while it wasn't sanctioned by the U.N.
which they hold so much esteem for. France will have a had time gaining favour with the West
once they experience the Holland style Jihadism
by Islamists that murder their artists and Leaders.

Judging by the brutality in Pakistan between Sunnis and Shias, and what's happening in Darfur, I'd say the solidarity between Muslims is on a par with the solidarity forged between Hitler and Stalin.

Tariq Fatah, spokesperson for a Muslim organization in Canada spoke yesterday on CBC Radio's Sunday Morning with some contempt for the notable absense of Muslim support for the people of Darfur at a demonstration staged a week earlier in Toronto, whereas most other faith communities, from Christians to Zoroastrians and many in between were there.

Also notably absent -- all those left-wing humanitarians who turned out by the thousands to protest the invasion of Iraq, giving new meaning to the old "Money talks, BS walks." No financial support from the usual suspects = small, poorly attended demonstrations.

There's an interesting symposium at FrontPage Mag today "The Terror War: How We Can Win" that dovetails with Iran's propaganda about the Israeli and American "scourge":

This from Ion Mihai Pacepa, the former acting chief of Communist Romania’s espionage service, whose book Red Horizons was republished in 24 countries. He is still sentenced to death in Romania:

During the last six years of my other life, as a Romanian intelligence general, the main task of the Soviet bloc espionage community was to transform Yasser Arafat’s war against Israel and its main supporter, the United States, into an armed doctrine of the whole Islamic world. America was our main enemy, and a billion adversaries could inflict far greater damage on it than could a mere one million. Islamic anti-Semitism ran deep. Our task was to convert its historical hatred of the Jews into a new hatred of the United States, by portraying this land of freedom as an “imperial Zionist country” financed by Jewish money and run by a rapacious “Council of the Elders of Zion,” the Kremlin’s epithet for the US Congress.
According to KGB theorists, the Islamic world was a petri dish in which we could nurture a virulent strain of America-hate. Islamic cultures had a taste for nationalism, jingoism and victimology. Their illiterate, oppressed mobs could be whipped up to a fever pitch. Terrorism and violence against America would flow naturally from their religious fervor. We had only to keep repeating, over and over, that the United States was a “Zionist country” bankrolled by rich Jews. Islam was obsessed with preventing the infidel’s occupation of its territory, and it would be highly receptive to our dogma that American imperialism wanted to transform the rest of the world into a Jewish fiefdom.

There's more, and it's worth a read.

And now just look at which former super power has a huge problem with its own Muslim population and now wants to cosy up to the US and Israel?

"And now just look at which former super power has a huge problem with its own Muslim population and now wants to cosy up to the US and Israel?"

I wish it was so! Russia is my country of origin and I try to follow the event there. Russian leaders still seem to be very pro-Arabian in their foreign politics (although relationship with Israel has significantly improved since the Soviet time), does not support American effort in Iraq and despite the wave of terrorism in Russian in the past ten years still calls Palestinians freedom fighters and not terrorists. Luckily Chechens are only a small portion of Russian muslim population and they've historically been of a tolerant variety. Even in Chechnya it was mostly a political issue - at least until the muslim 'friends' Russian government is so supportive of joined in. Even now you can find Chechen leaders that don't want to be a pawn in the world Jihad.

Sen:

Ion Mihai Pacepa, the former acting chief of Communist Romania’s espionage service, had the following to say about the nexus between the former USSR, its sattelites and the Palestinian cause in a symposium posted yesterday on FrontPageMag.com:

During the last six years of my other life, as a Romanian intelligence general, the main task of the Soviet bloc espionage community was to transform Yasser Arafat’s war against Israel and its main supporter, the United States, into an armed doctrine of the whole Islamic world.

Islam was obsessed with preventing the infidel’s occupation of its territory, and it would be highly receptive to our dogma that American imperialism wanted to transform the rest of the world into a Jewish fiefdom.

Before I left Romania for good, in 1978, the Soviet bloc intelligence community flooded the Islamic world with Arabic translations of an old Russian, forged, anti-Semitic tract entitled Protocols of the Elders of Zion, along with “documentary” materials, also in Arabic, “proving” that the United States was a Zionist country governed by Jewish money, whose aim was to extend its domination over the rest of the world. We also infiltrated the Islamic world with thousands of Soviet bloc Islamic citizens recruited as intelligence agents and tasked to implant there a rabid, demented hatred for American Zionism. They were to portray everybody and everything in America as being subordinated to Jewish interests: the leaders, the government, the political parties, the most prominent personalities—and even American history. Most of these agents were religious servants, engineers, medical doctors or teachers, and they had excellent credibility.

Although we now live in an age of technology, we still do not have an instrument that can scientifically measure the results of a sustained influence operation. Nevertheless, it is safe to presume that over the course of the further twenty-plus years—until the Soviet Union buckled—the combination between spreading hundreds of thousands of Protocols within the Islamic world and portraying the United States there as a criminal Zionist instrument should have left some trace. The hijacked airplane was launched into the world of contemporary terrorism by the KGB and its puppet Yasser Arafat, and it is significant that this became the weapon of choice for September 11, 2001.

I probably don't need to tell you about Russia's love-hate relationship with Israel (it was an early supporter) or Jews.

I am sure western intelligence networks are stirring up stuff in Iran. This is made possible by the Iranian governments insane tyranny over the population.
