Iran’s President crows: “Zionists have tried to block this deal but failed”

Jul 14, 2015 11:21 am By Robert Spencer

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani smiles during an interview with U.S. television network NBC in TehranThe Obama Administration and the mainstream media are saying that the deal is advantageous to both sides. The Iranians are saying otherwise. Of course, Obama and the mainstream media may not think that a deal that harms Israel is disadvantageous.

“Hailing deal, Rouhani slams ‘usurper Zionist regime,’” Times of Israel, July 14, 2015:

Toward the end of an address to the the Iranian people on state television, Rouhani takes a jab at Israel, saying that the Jewish state had “failed” in its attempts to stop the country’s nuclear project.

“Today people in Lebanon and Palestine are happy because Zionists have tried to block this deal but failed,” Rouhani says.

“Do not be deceived by the propaganda of the usurper Zionist regime,” he notes, adding that “the Zionist state has failed in its efforts” to obstruct the deal and Iran’s nuclear program.

    How can President Obama go on national TV and say he has stopped Iran from getting a nuclear bomb, while the Iranians are bragging that they are getting them.

    I would like to say that President Obama is foolish, but I have to say we as a people are. We re elected him.

    This is a sad day in the history of the world.

    WHAT OBAMA DOESN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT IRAN’S OFFSHORE NUCLEAR CAPABILITIES

    Just one day prior to the 70th anniversary of America exploding history’s first nuclear bomb, in a city formerly occupied by Nazi Germany, at a hotel that Adolf Hitler resided in, the US and Iran reached a “historic” agreement on Iran’s illegal nuclear weapons program. Obama claims that the deal shuts down EVERY pathway to Iran developing nukes for 15 years. But what Obama doesn’t want you to know is that Iran can continue to enrich uranium and develop nukes secretly and with impunity thousands of miles away in a distant country friendly to its evil interests. What Obama doesn’t want you to know is that in 2012 Iran signed a Science and Technology Cooperation Agreement with its Axis of Evil partner nuclear North Korea. What Obama doesn’t want you to know is that this agreement covers military as well as civilian science and technology projects. What he doesn’t want you to know is that Iran has nuclear scientists and missile technicians in North Korea developing ICBMs for the Norks to carry their nuclear bombs across the pacific to the US.

    Indeed, what Obama doesn’t want you to know is that when he says his agreement with Iran closes down all their pathways to a nuclear bomb he means only their domestic pathways, not the pathways open to them in nuclear North Korea. And if anyone doubts that the hard up, cash strapped Norks wouldn’t share their nuclear facilities with Iran (or sell them nukes off the shelf) then they need to be enlightened. They need to know that in 2007 the Norks were hard at work in building a secret, illegal nuclear weapons plant in Syria for mass murdering dictator Bashir al-Assad which (thank God) was destroyed by Israel. Alarmingly that North Korean -Syrian project, which was making the Norks millions, made them the world’s worst and most dangerous nuclear proliferators.

    Alarmingly, North Korea’s nukes are for sale on the international market. To ISIS, al-Qaida, drug cartels, crime syndicates, anyone with the cash that’s in the market for nukes will find a willing seller in North Korea. And for the last three years Iran and the world’s most dangerous nuclear proliferators have been secretly working on science and technology projects in North Korea. As North Korea was developing a nuclear weapons plant for Iran’s ally Syria only a fool would doubt that they’re not enriching uranium and building bombs for Iran, or doing this jointly with their scientists and technicians. In short, Obama’s deal with Iran (like Hitler’s deal with Chamberlain at Munich) is a charade and sham. In other words, these negotiations in Vienna are a complete charade and sham. The only way to ultimately prevent the Islamonazi jihadist mullahs from becoming a nuclear armed state is to destroy North Korea’s nuclear facilities along with Iran’s. Or topple the mullah regime like we toppled Saddam.

      This does not make any sense. I do not know what the reason is for Obama to make a deal, wether he wants for his legacy or wethere he is in love with Islam, or his hatred of Israel or all three, had Iranians building were making nukes else where, they would not come to the table. They came to the table because their economy is near collapse and inflation is out to China and people in Iran are very un happy. Instead what Obama should have done was to increase the sanctions. m

    On the one hand, we can all now sit back and watch the clock ticking on the first nuclear bomb test to be carried out somewhere in a remote part of Iran.

    On the other hand, we may have to wait until the day after Obama gets out of office. He’s been such a friend to the mad mullahs of Iran — and such a massive booster to Islam in its other forms like the Muslim Brotherhood and the Islamic State — that I would bet that the first nuclear test doesn’t go off until the first week that Obama is out of office. Also, it will give the Iranians time to ramp up a nice little stockpile and perfect their delivery method before they completely show their hand. They’ve got to figure out some way to get past the Iron Dome to make these nukes a truly viable threat to Israel. They may have to come up with some method by sea or a smuggling in via an extra large “palestinian” terror tunnel.

    Who wants to take me up on my “wager”?

    I put my money on the first week Obama leaves office. The first Iranian test nuke will go off between 01/21/2017 and 01/27/2017.

    Mr. Obama is not foolish. He knows exactly what he is doing and he is accomplishing his objectives without so much as a blip on the radar screen of the U.S. psyche. Being a muslim, his purpose is to bring this great satan country USA and its little satan country Israel into the dustbin of history and then to erase history for the sake of allah the pimp god of islam who promises (wink wink) that every muslim who kills someone for the sake of allah will get 72 houries.. that’s right, 72 perpetual virgins, only as Robin Williams once noted, allah did not say the virgins are women, so go forth all you jihadis and kill for allah, your reward is good no matter what the gender of the virgins because allah said he will also provide young pearls (little boys) to those who slash and bomb and stab for allah.

        There is no reason for the socialists to revolt on this, they get near total support from the Jewish community anyway, so the demise of six million Jews in Israel will be neither here or there, just an unfortunate outcome to an endless peace negotiation in which both sides had valid points that was presided over by both parties through the years.

          Almost certainly the mad mullahs of Iran have picked up on that, too.

          Of course for them to say that would mean that they’d have to admit that the Holocaust wasn’t mostly Zionist fabrication. Otherwise, they’d have no problem pointing that out in their saber rattling.

    What I don’t get is that America is supposed to be a democracy but your President goes on air saying he will veto anyone who tries to stop the deal from going through. So it’s all about next year’s election and Americans not wanting to go to war and the Democrats using this to catapult them into a further term of power?

    What about the world now being in enormous danger?

    Iran are Prophet killers. They killed a Prophet of God and exiled another. They persecute the most peaceful people on earth. There is no lie, no treachery that Iran will not commit. Mullahs are the most evil men the world has ever known and yet Obama trusts them?..

    Maybe Americans don’t want to face another war now but Iran is not sincere and they will have to face them another time when they are much, much more powerful.

    Iran’s leaders have done everything to try and destroy the Baha’i Community in Iran, the largest religious minority in that. Country. They rip up our cemeteries and imprison and torture our people and now America has no qualms trusting such a treacherous leadership?

    Thank God and the world for Israel. We would have ceased to exist if it wasn’t for Israel alone who gave refuge to us and our religion. The Prophet that Iran killed and the One they exiled are both buried in Israel in glorious shrines which Israel have allowed us to build in complete freedom.

    The Mullas of Iran who are in charge have not changed at all so whatever deal they make cannot be trusted.

    The Iranian people are good people but those in charge are nothing less than criminals who oppress innocent people and one only has to go look at just how many times they have been censored over their 170 year persecution of Baha’is.

    I’m not saying America are wrong to seek resolution through negotiations just that they should be very, very vigilant and wary. Israel understand very clearly the nature of the threat involved here. America are somewhat disinterested in it for political reasons but look at Iran’s human rights records before you go loosening sanctions because with lots more money they can oppress and harm lots more people and they will while Mullas are in charge.

      Salaam Fitna,

      It is true that despite being voted in …Obama is as much a dictator as any we have seen in modern History. They say that one person should not hold so much power and democracy holds the checks and balances to disallow this …but Obama shows this is not true. You… the kuffar of America …have stood by and let him have his way with you…kuffar is as kuffar does.

      So it will come to pass that Obama will have done more to advance the cause of the muslim than any dictator in the modern world.

      Indeed I think that apart from Muhammad SAW and the caliphs after him (RA) and the ancient Shia imams… he has got be next in line. Perhaps he will get an honorary spiritual title after his name too?

      Michelle waded in by only talking to muslim girls in the UK … asking them to be empowered and become the next rulers of the UK.

      Obama can speak fluent Arabic and he will achieve things to an epic scale for Islam including ensuring that your next successor to continue in the same vein.

      Obama through his political deeds is preparing for jannat …to have his fill of 72 virgins…Michelle is only a stop gap …his right hand will be full in Jannat.

      whilst …America …YOU prepare for sharia…

      Indeed Allah SWT works in strange ways…

      The Jews have been the perennial ‘scapegoats’ for whatever ails other people of the world.

      They need a homeland they can call home for they have suffered expulsion over eighty times since the time of the creation. Here is a race that has suffered undue justices many times over and has never bitched about their situations nor has asked for reparations. Now there is this numb nuts POTUS that wants to add salt to their festering injuries. He does not have a moral conscience.

      Here’s a link that explains about the Jewish peoples continual dilemmas. The website has a beautiful hand drawn time line that tracks the Jewish people wanderings since day one.

      IMHO, if only the Semite communities would consider believing in Polytheism, the belief of a Triune God as what Christianity believes in. Accepting the awaited Messiah that as was prophesied in the Old Testament. Perhaps would bring more blessing to them to ease their trials and tribulations they are very familiar with.

    If Pope Francis doesn’t take the opportunity to personally comment about the contentious Iranian deal I’m going to think that he is no longer the real spokesman of the Vatican. I read that St. Malachy predicted Pope Francis will be the last pope. Does it mean that presently the Vatican functions are under control by some other unknown entity? Certainly, its going to be a litmus test for us Catholics, especially the cradle born ones. The scriptures says that the Church will Prevail….we’ll have to be tuning-in to see what will happen next!

    I am writing to express my extreme disappointment in the deal that you’ve just signed with Iran, the world largest sponsor of terrorism. I understand why a deal is important- by why did you sign such a weak deal? Why did you cave into so many of Iran’s demands just to put this deal through? We shouldn’t be the ones desperate for a deal, Iran needs the sanctions relief, and I am disappointed that you did not push for a better agreement. Touting the small “crumbs” that you got in exchange for giving Iran access to billions of dollars is assuming that the American people are foolish. We are not. We see that you got barely anything out of this deal. You are our elected President, and it is your responsibility to represent your nations best interests. You have let us down today.

  17. Matthieu Baudin says

    Jul 14, 2015 at 11:33 pm

    The impetus for regime change in Iran may in fact rise with the raising of sanctions and a corresponding increase in the standard of living in Iran. Now that the deal has been done the focus needs to be on the monitoring of compliance with the reintroduction of sanctions if the regime reneges on its undertakings. There is plenty to be pessimistic about but perhaps it was time to try another tack. The Iranian, regime controlled press, is a revolting propaganda mouthpiece unfit for a people with such a long and proud history. The unrelenting invective directed against Israel is wholly unjustified and demonstrates the shallowness of the world view of the regimes leadership. The Zionist movement was probably on balance a positive political and cultural phenomenon and the existence of modern Israel is a great human achievement for the 20th and 21st Centuries.

  18. Michael Warden says

    The Iran deal just has to be a good one – David Cameron says so :

    Prime Minister David Cameron has hailed as “historic” the international community’s deal with Iran, which he said would stop Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon and “help make our world a safer place”.

    After a decade-long attempt to broker a deal, Tehran has agreed to allow UN inspectors access to sites so checks can be made on its nuclear programme.

    In return, some international sanctions will be lifted, a move that is expected to free up billions of dollars in frozen Iranian assets around the world.

    Mr Cameron paid tribute to those involved in protracted talks in Vienna between Iran and the so-called E3+3 – or P5+1 – group of the UK, US, Russia, China, France and Germany.

    The Prime Minister said: “After persistent diplomacy and tough sanctions, the international community has delivered a historic deal with Iran, a deal which secures our fundamental aim to keep Iran from developing a nuclear weapon and that will help to make our world a safer place.”

    Mr Cameron added: “I want to pay tribute to all of those who have worked tirelessly over the last few months to deliver this deal. It has required leadership, courage and determination on both sides.

    “Now we must ensure that this deal is fully implemented.

    “There is a real opportunity for Iran to benefit from this agreement in terms of its economy, but this will only happen if Iran delivers on all the agreed actions required to fully address international concerns about its programme.
    © Dan Kitwood/PA Wire

    “Of course, this agreement will not solve all the difficulties, especially between Iran and its neighbours. We will continue to work with our partners in the region to ensure stability and security and I hope that Iran will also follow this path.”

    The deal reached in Vienna comes at the end of a tortuous negotiation process which began in 2006 and underwent many setbacks and delays along the way.

    Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond, who represented the UK at the talks in the Austrian capital, said it would grant the International Atomic Energy Agency access to key sites in Iran to give the international community confidence that the country’s nuclear programme is “exclusively peaceful”, as Tehran has always maintained.

    In return, Iran can expect “significant economic and financial benefits” from the easing of sanctions, he said.

    The agreement was welcomed by US President Barack Obama , who said it ensured that “every pathway to a nuclear weapon is cut off” for Iran.

    His Iranian counterpart, Hassan Rouhani, said it opened a “new chapter” in Iran’s relations with the world.

    But the deal was greeted with horror in Israel, where Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu branded it a mistake of “historic proportions” and vowed to maintain efforts to block the Islamic republic from obtaining an atomic bomb.

    “We knew very well that the desire to sign an agreement was stronger than anything, and therefore we did not commit to preventing an agreement,” said Mr Netanyahu. “We did commit to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and this commitment still stands.”

    Mr Hammond said he recognised the concerns of Iran’s neighbouring states, but insisted Britain stood firm against any “Iranian interference in their internal affairs”.

    The agreement will impose “strict limits and inspections on Iran’s nuclear programme”, said the Foreign Secretary.

    And he added: “Having reached this important agreement, our focus will now be on its swift and full implementation to make sure that a nuclear weapon remains beyond Iran’s reach.

    “We recognise the concern in the region about Iran’s historic pattern of regional activity. We will maintain our clear position in support of the Gulf states and against Iranian interference in their internal affairs. We hope, and expect, that this agreement will herald a step-change in Iran’s relations with its neighbours and with the international community.

    “The removal, over time, of economic and financial sanctions represents a huge opportunity for Iranians to make positive decisions about their country’s future and its role in the region.

    “We will continue to work closely with our international partners to encourage Iran to play a transparent and constructive role in regional affairs, particularly in the struggle against violent Islamist extremism.”

    Former chancellor Lord Lamont, chairman of the British-Iranian Chamber of Commerce, said: “The nuclear deal negotiated by the P5+1 with Iran is courageous and right.

    “The only alternative to a negotiated deal would be direct military intervention, which would be disastrous for the region and the world.

    “Iran had every incentive to comply with the terms of this, just as it consistently has done with the chemical weapons convention.

    “Contrary to the fears of some of its neighbours, Iran can play a constructive and positive role in the region, including of course in the fight against the Islamic State.

    “Hopefully, this deal will gradually pave the way to better relations on a whole range of issues.”

    On the other hand :

    John Kerry will go down in history as a modern day Neville Chamberlain, but this deal will not deliver “peace in our time”.
    A wise player would have walked from the table months ago, and allow further economic stagnation to bring the regime to it’s knees. Kerry and the other lambs negotiated from a position of weakness, when it could have been strength.
    They have given away much and received peanuts in return. At best, delayed Iran gaining the “bomb” by one year. Pathetic.

    Well, ‘there goes the neighborhood’ literally. Rasool Obama lives up to his reputation as a stealth jihadist in the WH.
    He may not be a great leader, but he is the worlds greatest shuck and jive artist…taqiyya experts look to him for inspiration and guidance. It would be bad enough if this were foisted upon us, but it’s not, it is largely the result of public opinion…

    When one ‘little’ devil makes a deal with another ‘little’ devil, the outcome can only be devilish…

    Iranian Shiites are a threat to Israel. A civil war led by secular forces in Iran will rid the crazies of their power. The Iranian government should not be allowed to exist with Khomeini in command.

    It saddens me to critizise the president of USA.
    He should know that a deal with an muslim isn`t worth the cost of the paper it`s written on.
    I understand that he`s seeking a partner in the middle east to break the back of ISIS.
    Saudis will not like this agreement with the Iranians.
    President Obama is likley to light the fuse to a war in the middle east.
    A war that can escelate far off from Syria and put Europe in a difficult position.
    Mr Putin is rubbing his hands…..
    Just waiting to expand his influence on europe.
    God bless us.
