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

Iran: Trump’s move “will hasten the destruction of the Zionist regime and will double the unity of Muslims”

Dec 12, 2017 9:13 am By Robert Spencer

Oh, come now, Hatami. If you weren’t vowing the destruction of the Zionist regime over this, you would be vowing the destruction of the Zionist regime over that. There are no circumstances in which you would not be vowing the destruction of the Zionist regime.

As for the unity of the Muslims, the Islamic Republic of Iran has long been trying to position itself as the leader of the global jihad, despite its Shi’ite identity making it unpalatable to many Sunni Muslims. Get the details in my book The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran.

“Iran: Trump’s Jerusalem move will hasten Israel’s destruction,” Reuters, December 11, 2017:

BEIRUT – Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital will hasten the country’s destruction, Iran’s defense minister said on Monday, while a top Revolutionary Guards commander phoned two Palestinian armed groups and pledged support for them.

Leaders of Iran, where opposition to Israel and support for the Palestinian cause has been central to foreign policy since the 1979 Islamic revolution, have denounced last week’s announcement by the US president, including a plan to move the US embassy to the city.

The Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state.

“(Trump’s) step will hasten the destruction of the Zionist regime and will double the unity of Muslims,” Iran’s defense minister, Brigadier General Amir Hatami, said on Monday, according to state media.

The army’s chief of staff, General Mohammad Baqeri, said Trump’s “foolish move” could be seen as the beginning of a new intifada, or Palestinian uprising….

    They are already unified against us.

    What scares them most, is that we become unified.

    Iran can not strike back because they don’t have nuclear rockets.

      My suspicion is that they, Iranians, are underground dealing with North Korea and China for technological skills.

    The muslim maggot, wrigles and squirms! Stops feeding on the putrid pig carcass that is his nest, just long enough to curse those damn Jews!
    It is absolutely laughable!
    Satan (allah) knows and cares for his own!

    His “vowing the destruction of the Zionist regime” is deeply embedded in each and every hair of his nicely trimmed, almost totally grey beard. His “vowing the destruction of the Zionist regime” now and forever is prerequisite of him holding his job: without it he would be fired. He must caw in exactly the same tune as his Supreme leader, Khamenei (old man with untrimmed beard).

    The sacking fascist of fascist zionists will be followed by sacking of evil Saudi Royal family from control of Islamic holy sites. wahhabism and Zionism are twin sisters of evils. wahhabism is a cancer trying to kill Islam. Look at these evil Saudi monarchs, at the time evil United States is signing the seizure of Aqsa for Evil Zionists the stupid corrupt monarchs are busy opening Saudi society to lewdness and pornography in cinemas. Idiots!!

      Very uninspiring, Khomeinist troll. If Islam is “killed” the first beneficiaries of it will be you, the miserable zombies tragically caught in this 1400 years old mental illness.

      “wahhabism is a cancer trying to kill Islam”

      What do you mean? It is islam.

        LeftisruiningCanada, Ibrahim itace muhammed has no ideological differences with Wahabbism at all. He just considers the Saudis rivals to his own gang.

        This is, as you know, so common in Islam as to be the norm.

          and yet they probably financed his mosque and his copy of the koran, seeing how much money SA pours into the world to further the pollutions of islam.

          interesting

    The most anti-Semitic country on earth. Why does any country have relations with Iran?

  10. mortimer says

    Dec 12, 2017 at 4:51 pm

    Poppycock. Over the years a number of countries have had their embassies in Jerusalem because that’s where the government offices are. A number of countries actually have ‘consulates’ in Jerusalem that are actually functioning as the embassy.

    STOP the psychodrama. The capital of Eastern Palestine is Amman and that is the other half of the two-state solution already in place.

    Iran: Trump’s move “will hasten the destruction of the Zionist regime and will double the unity of Muslims”
    …………………….

    Iran is always threatening to destroy Israel.

    As for the “unity of Muslims”, right now Sunnis and Shi’ites are slaughtering each other in Syria, Yemen, Iraq, and the Islamic State. Even halving that, there is not a whole lot of unity…

    One thing Muslims of any sect can agree on, though, is the destruction of Israel and the mass murder of Jews.

    The 1995 law behind President Trump’s plan to move the U.S. Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem …

    “Jerusalem Embassy Act”

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_Embassy_Act

    This has been in the works for years!!

      So true, Champ–every American president for decades has mentioned this–but none of them have carried through with it. I hope President Trump does.
