Iran’s Parliament Speaker: Iran left with no choice but to confront US

Jul 20, 2016 5:17 pm By Robert Spencer

The U.S. ignores and/or denies the fact, but the Islamic Republic of Iran is on a war footing with the United States, and is aggressively pursuing that war in all sorts of ways. Get the details in my new book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran.

Ali-Larijani

“Iran left with no choice but to confront the US, official warns,” Jerusalem Post, July 20, 2016:

Iran is left with no choice but to confront the US, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani warned Wednesday.

Iran’s Press TV quoted Larijani as issuing the warning in light of legislation proposed by US opponents to the Iran nuclear deal to further sanction the Islamic Republic and the UN’s first bi-annual report on the deal’s implementation released earlier this week which suggested that Iran was not following “the spirit of the deal.”

“Majlis (Iranian Parliament), utterly regretting the UN chief’s move, is warning the US administration and its House of Representatives and Senate that injurious measures against the nuclear agreement have reached such a point that there is no way left for Iran but to counteract,” Larijani stated.

Discussing Ban’s report, Larijani said, “On the one hand, the Secretary General says in his report that Iran’s commitment is encouraging, and on the other, he makes no reference to Iran’s concerns and complaints about the non-implementation of all of the P5+1’s obligations.”

The Iranian parliament speaker accused Ban of a one-sided approach, asking, “Had the Secretary General been tasked with producing a report on both side’s fulfillment of their obligations or is he the P5+1’s monitor in this?”

In calling out Iran, the UN report specifically mentioned the Islamic Republic’s ballistic missile tests which contravened a UN Security Council Resolution.

Larijani countered that the nuclear agreement itself, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), makes no mention of Iran’s ballistic missiles and the resolution in question, UN Resolution 2231, and only orders Iran not to design ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads….

Iranian nuclear chief Ali Akbar Salehi warned Wednesday that if US-led parties continue to disrespect the nuclear deal, Iran has the capabilities to resume uranium enrichment at even a higher level than before the agreement.

“We can go to better conditions compared with the past as quickly as possible,”Salehi was quoted as saying by Iran’s Fars News Agency.

“Of course, this will happen if the other side violates the nuclear deal and this violation will be confirmed by the board (in Iran) which supervises (implementation of) the nuclear deal.” he added.

See, we think we’re supervising them, but actually, they’re supervising us.

    The Iranians are masters of taqiyya. It would take an army of Iranians to defeat the other Iranians.

    Indeed–obama ignores *all* the signs including Iran’s brazen “Death to American” chants.

      Obama’s already told us that if the political winds shift against the Muslims (he made this claim without knowing why the “winds” might shift– presuming any shift against Muslims by loathsome Whities would be a contemptible act of white aggression… because why else do we do anything except to make life miserable for non-white Earthlings?) he’d stand with them. So… “isil”, the “Tollee-bohn” and Iran are perniciously shielded through his bold, bold visionary courage. No wonder Erdogan had to restrain himself from making out with him.

    And darn it, America is left with no choice but to send dozens of bunker buster bombs into the doors of Iran’s many underground nuclear weapon assembly plants. Too bad, cuz the world media will roundly condemn the attacks as imperialism, even though the Ayatollah has publicly expressed the intent to use his forthcoming nuke ICBMs first on Israel, and then on us.

    No, check that, wait a minute, Prez Barack Hussein won’t do that. Not only would it make too much sense strategically, it would slow the spread of Islamic dominance, and his middle name is more than a matter of detail. He may not be a Moslem, but he’s a big admirer of them, and has proven that time and again.

    Oh, the poor, little special snowflakes! After spending decades shouting “Death to America”, sponsoring anti-American terrorism and getting everything they wanted in the nuclear deal, the poor little things have no choice but to confront the US – of course!

      Hi Angemon,

      “the poor little things have no choice but to confront the US – of course!”

      Of course “of course”… Let’s assume it will happen, with Hillary in power. Don’t dismiss that possibility, the Americans voted twice for Obama, the Germans for Merkel, etc. So what would an American response look like? First, the US-Gov will have to establish if it really was an act of war, also, if it was done by real soldiers, and if so, was it done by direct orders of the Iranian gov.? Lots of question will have to asked and answered first.

      Simultaneously they will look for the **real motive**. Could be workplace related, that the Iranian troops were unhappy with their promotional prospects. Could be domestic trouble for some Iranian soldiers, just think: Some of them may have stoned theirs wives, the stones bounced off, and they survived. Such a tremendous shock for the Muslim male – the psychological, or more likely ‘psycho’ implications are enormous. And so on and so on.

      With Trump in power, there are some possibilities however, first there could be a military response, assuming his advisers and the US foreign office (or whatever they are called) agree. Alternatively, there could be some tough deals being negotiated. Of course, if one of Trumps ‘interests’ in the Arab gulf states is hit… At least confiscation of some of the Iranian assets.

      Forgive me if I sound weird, but I am only on my second coffee so far.

      ..because obama is the weakest president ever. If I were them, I would. Hillary can be bought so they can wait to see if the election money they sent, like saudi did works.

      In a real world Hillary and obola would be in jail

    “We can go to better conditions compared with the past as quickly as possible,”Salehi was quoted as saying by Iran’s Fars News Agency.

    So much for their previous lies that they were not pursuing a nuclear bomb. Should they expand back to the former enrichment, Israel will have no choice but to take out the facilities and the US won’t have a choice but to support them.

    What’s that old saying about not bringing a knife to a gun fight? Only Islamists would start something that was guaranteed to finish themselves and many innocent people.

    This is why Israelis are now conducting massive preparedness drills. Wikileaks has also shown just this week that Turkish military experts have been providing Hamas with expertise on how to hide and fire missiles. Expect attacks against Israel from the north and south. God help us.

    In your book Robert, Iran tells us they will infiltrate the West. Not in those exact words, but the hints are pretty darned blatant. And I hear them speak of “making Israel go blind” EMP weapons! And “the Zionist regime will have no air to breathe” CHEMICAL WEAPONS.

    This book is wow! And I am going to tell everyone about it! Thank you Mr. Spencer.

    Its the Arabic notion of “honor”. We told them they couldn’t make nuclear weapons (or at least not so quickly) so they have to respond by acting out their childish you can’t make me tantrum.

    We are dealing with emotionally and intellectually retarded barbarians who nevertheless want to kill us.

    And if we don’t take them seriously they will succeed.

    Iran has already humiliated the U.S. Navy by arresting, UNOPPOSED, boat loads of naval personnel. Obama has assured his place in Muslim heaven by weakening the strongest Kufr state that opposes islamic world rule. is this the same America that saved my country England from extinction by Nazi Germany. ???? Obama is beneath contempt.

    Trump & Pence tear up the Iran deal on day one. Then tell the Ayatollah “like it is, complies”? If the Ayatollah doesn’t comply, then persuade him with Massive Ordnance Penetrators (30,000-pound bunker buster bombs) delivered on him, his flunkies, and key military assets. And if that doesn’t persuade whatever leadership is still alive, then get down to business.

    Iran’s Parliament Speaker: Iran left with no choice but to confront US
    ………………………

    Where’s apologist for the Islamic Republic of Iran “Christianblood” to cheer them on?

  18. common sense says

    Jul 21, 2016 at 3:28 pm

    Somehow the UN is violating the terms of JCPOA.

    Robert aptly points out that the Iranians supervise us well.

    Middle east slush money supervises the Democrat extreme left very well, no doubt.

    I’m 99% sure that the left better hope that Donald Trump wins this election, even if they don’t know it.

    I live in the so called technology center of the world (where the wi-fi speeds are among the slowest in the world). I work with people from all over the world, they are more knowledgeable AND direct about Islam than every native born liberal democrat that I know (some embarrassing dipshot family members included).

    How is it that liberals (in their own minds) can believe they are seated in the correct position regarding illegal immigration and Islam while at the same time people are frequently attacked and killed by Islamism itself? My astonishment is unfathomable. They can’t see Europe for what has has happened to it and even when confronted with Clinton lies they choose to ignore, excuse or just believe it. On and on……

    When the SHTF I wonder where their collective position will be at that point.

    “A nuclear strike on Isreal from Iran was tested today, Obama apologizes for the inconveniences the west has caused to poor little muzzie wolrd”. “Next time they promise a direct hit” *sarcasm*

    The left will let out a collective ‘shwoo!’ “Can’t be having ,near misses Obamy mommy said so, I thought Muslims were the ‘perfect people'”. “Don’t worry Jimmy we’ll eventually help them destroy us correctly and in a timely manner” *sarcasm*

    If anyone here posts from CA you know what we have to endure. It’s like this “my neighbor has too many kids I should castrate myself” that is the ‘logic’ we have to put up with.

    Let start a the beginning of this mess. Jimmy Carter ( fool, Leftest) did not back the Shaw that allowed, a westernized Islamic country to be sent back to the stone-ages regarding rights fore it people. And also allowed our own people to be taken as political prisoners. He was also no friend to Israeli ( Antisemitism) by continuing to pushing Arafat’s agenda and having Israeli jump threw hoops to appease the Palestinians. Clinton administration was not much help Israeli and continued to to push the Palestinians agenda.
    Today we have an administration ( Leftest, Antisemitism) that openly have turned against and undermined Israeli and for no sane and put the US in harm’s way with the deals it has made with Iran.
    We are unsafe because of this administration, and God save us is Hillary is elected in the fall .
    She will continue to push more of the same .
