Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

As Iran and US plan nuke talks, Iranians hold “Death to America” parades

Nov 4, 2014 11:53 am By Robert Spencer

IrandeathtoAmericaThe Iranians know that there is nothing they can possibly do that will stop Barack Obama from making concessions to them.

“Iran Holds Nationwide ‘Death to America’ Parades,” by Adam Kredo Washington Free Beacon, November 4, 2014 (thanks to Maxwell):

Tens of thousands of Iranians reportedly took to the streets on Tuesday to celebrate the 1979 overthrow of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran by burning the U.S. flag and chanting “Death to America.”

The multi-city rallies were held on the 35th anniversary of the hostage crisis, in which more than 50 Americans were captured by hardline Iranian protestors, and were meant to showcase Iran’s ongoing hostility to the United States, according to regional reports.

Dubbed the National Day of Campaign Against Global Arrogance, Iranians from across the nation could be heard chanting in the streets, “Death to U.S.” and burning both American and Israeli flags, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency and other outlets.

Major rallies were held outside the former U.S. embassy in Tehran, now known as “the den of spies,” while others took place in smaller cities across the country.

“The demonstrators also condemned the U.S.-led western sanctions against Iran, and stressed that the United States is the main enemy of the Iranian nation,” Fars reported.

The anti-American rallies are held every year around this time.

Flags stating, “Down with USA” were displayed at the rallies, while others held pictures of the American hostages with their arms pinned over their heads.

As the demonstrations took place, Iranian officials in charge of leading talks with the West over the country’s contested nuclear program said that any deal must recognize Iran’s right to enrich uranium, the key component in a nuclear weapon….

      Nice one, tpellow. From the same article. News of demonstrations throughout Northern Iran:

      “News reports are coming in of massive demonstrations in Iran on October 25, throughout the northern half of the country — Saqqez, Tehran, Mashhad, Rasht, Shahr-e Kord, and Isfahan. The protests all focused on the issue of acid-throwing. At each event, the regime’s Revolutionary Guards, the police and their supporters moved in hard with tear gas and pepper spray. They were shooting in the air, and battering women.”

    But in our western governments’ minds, we have to support (or talk to) those particular muslims that are less radical than the most radical ones, as if the lesser evil was good.

      We need a definition of Muslim attitudes to Western ideals and people. “Westernphobia” then we can form information groups, be invited to universities to talk, obtain government funding and even perhaps adopt a silly headress for our female members.
      Even better we can declare a crusade (jihad) and recruit our young men to fight against Muslims with the promise of 72 Virgin Apple IPhones!

      The pathetic in content and incoherence rants of Brain Off, are a perfect example of the uneducated, and sadly uncommonly stupid results of being a devout muslim.

    Death to America parades? ..oh, isn’t that precious! Surely obama wishes that he could be at the parade in person–instead of going through the pretenses of protecting American interests, but I’m sure he’s there in spirit.

    It’s folly and futility to even try to engage in worthwhile and productive negotiations the officials of the lying and disingenuous ayatollahs and mullahs who have so much power in the terrible and oppressive Islamic tyrannical regime of Iran. For the doctrine of Taqiyya holds a great influence in these so called “talks.” The Taqiyya is the teaching that lying and deception is a good thing to do as long as it’s done for the good of Islam. The Muslim cleric have the mad and irrational quest to obtain nuclear weapons. This is because in their fanatical Islamic drive they have the strong delusion that having and using W.M.D. will bring the things that they believe will necessary for the coming of their Islamic messiah. This character they call the Mahdi or the Twelfth Imam that they believe, in their Islamic delusion/fanaticism, will come and set the whole words “right” in and Islamic way. But first, for this character to come, things in the Middle East need to get worse and things to get worse and not better. Thus the Muslims in power in Iran have the strong , mad, Islamic drive to have and make use of M.M.D.. Likewise, the power holders in Iran want nuclear weapon because they hate the State of Israel, which they call the little Satan. The hate the United States, which they call the great Satan. They likewise hate all the other Western countries and all the non-Muslim people in them. In trying to engage in real dialogue with the officials of Iran, who are only stooges the the real Islamic power holders in this Islamic tyranny is just foolishness.

    Nov 4, 2014 at 1:52 pm

    In these so called “negotiations” the officials of the Islamic “republic” will only fake being interested in genuine dialogue. The is to get as much sanctions lifted as possible. This is not to ,as they claim,to make life more easy for the Iranian people, but so that they the mullahs and ayatollahs may have more easy access to the materials to need to have their men to construct W.M.D. The mad and irrational “reasons” they want nuclear weapon I had just stated in my last posting. In short, it stand the that religious fanatics cannot be reason. Religious fanatics will not respond to reason. The these ayatollahs and mullahs have their own Islamic scheme and they will not move from it .No matter how much or how many they many be logical reasons they might be given to change their agenda. To put it another way, Thomas Jefferson has so well explained “An enemy generally says and believes what he wishes.”

    Negative nationalism always requires a dragon to slay. The demonization of America allows the mullahocracy to distract people from their greed, graft and overall corruption.

    Large numbers of Persians are atheists. Weekly mosque attendance rate in Iran has been very low compared to other Muslim countries. Less than 2% attend Friday prayers.

    • john spielman says

      Nov 4, 2014 at 3:41 pm

      i thought the local SS, Stazi or NKVD (ie the local Revolutionary Guard) squads would force every one to attend the local mosque for Friday worship Satan service and prayers to the Beast

    people have nothing better to do than protest because their governments do not care about them. But they call the US or Europe to send cash to help them.
    And the US drops to their knees and sends billions of $$$$ what about the poor in the US? theses people burning flags do not have a life and they only go out like this to protest in public so their government wont kill them for having US things in their home. stupid people. get a job-earn a living and man up.

    These Iranians are just going through the motions these days. It’s an annual holiday now and its obvious the thrill is gone.
    Iranian conservatives (i.e., allies of western leftists) are probably writing editorials about “the war on Death to America”, while Iranian liberals (i.e., allies of western conservatives) are saying there’s no war on the Death to America holiday, because everyone is clearly celebrating it.

    As Iran and US plan nuke talks, Iranians hold “Death to America” parades
    ……………………….

    I just picked up the current issue of The Economist. While they never seemed to fully understand Islam—no surprise there—they used to be pretty reliably against “Islamic extremism”, at least. Not in recent years.

    The cover story, believe it or not, is about how ‘moderate’ Iran has become:

    “The gap would be easier to close if Iran and America trusted each other. One reason why the relationship is so poisonous is that popular Western views of Iran are out of date to the point of caricature…”

    Later in the article, though, they admit that Iran finances terrorists, imprisons and tortures political opponents, and hangs rape victims—and that they have a surge in executions.

    Doesn’t sound very ‘moderate’ to me—and they don’t even mention the imprisonment of people who danced to “Happy”, the hanging of gays, the imprisonment and death sentences of Christians for “blasphemy”, and the endless calls of “Death to Israel!” and “Death to America!”, as here.

    After touting Iran’s alleged moderating changes ad nauseum in a series of features, they have a piece on the very next page, “The Silent Centre—If moderates don’t vote next week, extremists will thrive”.

    Another article about Iran? Of course not—the “extremists” in question are on the American political scene, especially—wait for it—Republicans.

    In the editorial, they overtly compare Iran to the US:

    “…Secondly, that power in Iran moves between factions, just as in America…”

    As though Ahmadinejad and Rouhani were just like the American Republican and Democratic parties—really, they’re more like Nazi Brown Shirts and Black Shirts.

    *This* is what passes for sophisticated political analysis these days. Good grief…

    The majority of the Iranian people are decent, interested in progress and not unfriendly to Americans. Unfortunately they are held prisoner by the theocratic government, just as Muslims are held prisoner by Islam.

    The nuclear negotiations are a pointless delaying tactic – Iran will produce nuclear weapons via secret underground facilities, just as other nuclear states have done.

      What crap.

      No doubt this why “tens of thousands” are out on the streets, shrieking “death to America” and burning American and Israeli flags.

      What evidence do you have, that the majority of Iranians are “not unfriendly” to America, apart from your own blind, wishful thinking ?

      Post some evidence, if you can.
