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

Iran’s Supremo: “U.S. and the Zionist Regime…fear the formation of a power based on Islam”

Sep 9, 2018 11:43 am By Robert Spencer

The U.S., at least, doesn’t fear the formation of a power based on Islam. The U.S. is completely indifferent to such an eventuality. Islam is not on its radar screen. As far as U.S. policy goes, Islam is a religion of peace that at worst has been hijacked by a tiny minority of extremists. U.S. policymakers should pay much more attention to Islam than they do, as I show in my book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, but there are scant signs that they’re catching on.

“Imam Khamenei: ‘US failures in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon signs of God’s promise,'” AhlulBayt News Agency, September 9, 2018:

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The leader of the Islamic Revolution: The defeat of the U.S.’s conspiracies in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon is a sign of God’s power and realization of God’s promises, that indicates if you assist the cause of God, God will help you succeed and persist.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces—Ayatollah Khamenei—attended the graduation ceremony of army cadets at the Imam Khomeini Naval Academy in Nowshahr today (September 9, 2018), as part of his visit to the city.

At the beginning of this ceremony, Ayatollah Khamenei paid tribute to the martyrs of defense against Saddam’s US-backed war on Iran by visiting the graves of five unidentified martyrs buried at the site of the academy and recited sura Al-Fatiha. The Leader of the Revolution then inspected the troops at the field….

ِAt this event, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces delivered a speech wherein he stressed that preventing the formation of an Islamic power in Southwestern Asia is what the U.S. and the Zionist Regime seek, adding: “They know that the fascinating message of Islam is defending the oppressed and the underprivileged; thus, they fear the formation of a power based on Islam.”

Ayatollah Khamenei dubbed the powerful resistance of the Islamic Republic against the Front of Arrogance as a factor that led to the defeat of the oppressors of the world in perusing their goals in the region and reminded his audience: “Political analysts and world-known intellectuals are astonished by how Iran, relying on God and the national power, has left the global powers unaccomplished in our region and they acknowledge this reality.

The leader of the Islamic Revolution called threatening, domineering, and bullying in words, the main methods used by oppressive powers to terrify other nations and stressed: ” If a nation is not scared of these methods; and moves in the path of truth and justice with bravery, confidence and belief in their capabilities, they will make the domineering powers to retreat.

Ayatollah Khamenei regarded the Islamic Republic as a prominent example of this reality and stated: “Since 40 years ago, Iran has been the target of the sabotage by the U.S. and its allies. However, now Iran has grown from a small sapling into a big and fruitful tree. Despite the enemies’ efforts and measures for countering it, Iran has attracted the hearts of other nations to the message of the revolution and has defeated the conspiracies of the U.S. in the region.”

The leader of the Islamic Revolution called the cases of Syria, Iraq and Lebanon as examples wherein the conspiracies of the United States in the region suffered a defeat and went on to say: “These cases are signs of the power of God and the affirmation of the Divine Promise, that: if you assist [the cause of] God, God will assist you with victory and persistence….

    The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Ayatollah Khamenei, is a clown talking through his butt! Today, the Iranian Rial stands at 150,000 for just 1 mighty US dollar. Queues at money changers are forming all over the country as the good citizens of Iran try to exchange their Rials for US Dollars. The Rial has crashed from 43,000 Rials in April this year to 150,000 today!

    I’ll bet the army cadets listening to his lies couldn’t wait for him to finish so they could rush to the money changers to staunch the hemorrhage in value of their savings!

    Without losing the life of a single service man or woman, Trump has crushed Tehran’s mad Mullahs, enemies of freedom and democracy!

      Iranian currency is plummeting into a deep hole. Meanwhile, the general says we should fear the SECRET WEAPON of ISLAM! Ha!

      He should fear the SECRET WEAPON of SUNNITE ISLAM from Saudi Arabia. They will be turning their attack on Iran’s Shi’ite mullahocracy soon enough.

      What if hundreds of anti-Shi’ite suicide bombers were set loose in IRAN??? We all know that SAUDI ARABIA teaches their children that SHI’ITES are deviant MUSLIMS if not KAFIRS … don’t we?

    “They know that the fascinating message of Islam is creating the oppressed and the underprivileged; thus, they fear the formation of a power based on Islam.”
    Based on the situation in Muslim countries, any rational person would.

    Iran’s commander -in chief had declared that the USA and Israel do “fear the formation of a power based on Islam.” Well,if that’s actually true that The United States and her ally the State of Israel “fear a formation power based on Islam” that means that the higher up government officials of America and Israel are being silly. The reason the they would be “silly” is that a formation of power hat is based on Islam is a formation of a power that has it’s entire foundation resting on a religious book , the Qur ‘an, that is nothing but a hoax, and a farce . As this following essay explains.

    Since the very foundation of and for Islam is the Quran ,this leads to very important question: “Is the Quran the Word of God or is it a fabrication of a man. Thus, is the Quran the truth or a fiction and a hoax ?” The answer is clearly given on pages 145 through 157 in THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey in which he wrote a section on the Quran with its self-contradictions. Just two of the many he cited are the following “The Quran differs on whether a day is a thousand years or fifty thousand years in God’s sight’ and “Who was first to believe? Abraham or Moses [Sura 6:14 versus 7:143]? The above is inconsistent and illogical. Further, Morey wrote about “The fact that Judaism and Christianity broke up into different sects was used in the Quran to prove that they are not of God [Suras 30:20-32. 42:13, 14]. Yet Islam has broken up into many warring sects and therefore cannot be true if the Quran is right.” Moreover, Morey in his book shows many more contradictions and absurdities in the Quran, there are and how Muhammad incorporated extra Biblical and Jewish folklore along with pre-Islamic Arabian myth and parts of Zoroastrian and Hindu stories into the Quran. Furthermore, the Muslims claim that “the Quran is the direct, literal word of God unmodified in any way by the Prophet who uttered them at the bidding of God.” Nevertheless, in the book UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet Caner and Eethi Caner has shown that the Quran was modified in the following account on pages 45. “Muhammad felt the need to improve on the words of Allah, since he changed Allah’s wisdom for his own on several occasions. A hadith tells of the nonchalant emendations of Muhammad:’ On a number of occasions he [a scribe] had, with the Prophet’s consent changed the closing words of verses. For example, when the prophet had said ‘God is mighty and wise ‘ Adbollah b. Abi Sarh suggested writing down ‘Knowing and wise’ and the Prophet answered that there was no objection. Having observed a succession of changes of this type, Adbollah renounced Islam on the grounds that revelations, if from God could not be changed at the prompting of a scribe such as himself. After his apostasy he went to Mecca and joined the Qorayshites.’ Other writers reveal that later Muhammad and his people did go war with the Qorayshites and he personally killed Abdollah. Obviously Abdollah knew too much and Muhammad wanted Abdollah’s knowledge to die with him.” In conclusion, the Quran is not only a fiction, it’s also a hoax.

    Ayatollah Khamanei in a speech said that “Iran had grown from a small sapling into a big and fruitful tree.” That much is true about that Islamic regime of Iran .The point is that is should be noticed and understood the exactly what kind of “fruit” had grown out of that “fruitful tree.” The fruits of this tree are the heinous brutal vicious cruel and murderous jihad entities that is known and Hezbollah and Hamas.
    With this statement, the Wisdom of the teachings of Jesus may, very much, apply to this subject. For Jesus taught “Ye do know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.” After saying this Jesus told them what He told them when He said “By their fruit ye shall know them.” Matthew 7:16, 17, 18,.20. [K.J.V.] In conclusion, Islam is a corrupt tree and also a false religion, Proverbs 14:12. John 14:6. First John 2:22,23. 4:14,15. 5:12,13,20.

      The fruits of Iran’s Islam Tree are hanging hornet nests – a sure danger to the individual and viewed as a nuisance, worthy of elimination, by the larger society. When the nuisance becomes intolerable, though reticent, other Muslim nations will join the swatting.

    Ayatollah Khamenei said concerning his Islamic “republic” that “Political analyst and known intellectuals…” The other words Khamenie in this speech spoke are beyond the scope of this short comment. The point that head ayatollah’s first word in the quote was the word “political.” This further exposes that Islam is in essence, a religious /political Sharia law based system. As so well explained in brief way, by the Muslim tyrant who and ruled Iran, Ayatollah Khomeini when he stated that “All Islam is politics.” [1]

    Whilst I recognize the clear danger represented by unreformed Islam I do not fear it, I know we can contain it and possibly even defeat it, defeat would be a long-term project, what I do fear is the naivety of our Western leaders who consider Islam to be a Religion of peace and who act accordingly with obvious consequences.

      unfortunately, Stadex, naive leaders and citizens are together dooming civilization. there is little chance that things will turn around, and at this point, our best hope is that we civilized folks (i.e., non-muslims) win the coming civil war. as for blame, look to the hard-core left; they succeed best when the society they parasitize collapses, at which point they swoop in, seize control, and start the roundups to fill mass graves. the main difference this time is that when they go to solve the muslim problem, word about the first few mass murders of muslims will leak out, since the hard left has so stupidly put pious muslims into powerful positions in most governments; virtually *all* remaining muslims will see the light and turn pious. when thousands, or a few hundred thousand, hard-core leftists face off against several *million* pious muslims, all of whom want to die while killing kuffar, since allah guarantees entry into jannah for that “accomplishment,” the deck is stacked against the leftists. after all, they all want to live, preferring to murder others to dying themselves. furthermore, pious muslims who have studied the quran and the sunnah know that they must murder kuffar, and many, if not most, of them have learned that from early childhood. my money would be on the muslims, if i had a dog in that fight.

      finally, the only way to defeat islam would be to occupy all islamic countries with our military, then make islam illegal. over a period of several centuries, it would be likely to die out, but it is doubtful that any *republic* is willing to occupy 57 other nations for even 2 or 3 decades, let alone several centuries, for *any* reason. on one site, a commenter suggested the occupation, with the addition of kidnapping all muslim children and placing them in non-muslim families, then sterilizing the adult muslims, while letting them live out their natural lives as hatefully as they please. were this possible, it would be the quickest way to end islam, since the cult would disappear in a single generation, but it is so cruel that i doubt that any but russia and china would ever consider implementing it. thus, i expect that the cult will continue, and that it will continue to parasitize civilized countries. furthermore, i expect that those parasitized countries will collapse into islamic s**thole countries – which are *ANYTHING* but civilized. in 3 or 4 centuries, almost every human will be islamic, the average human will live no better than the average bangladeshi today, and because everything western will be destroyed, most humans will have no idea who their forebears were, nor what freedom is. i pray that some free people can survive somewhere, but i have my doubts; furthermore, i fully expect to be murdered by either a leftist or a muslim during the civil war in the u.s. (although i hope to leave a few of them dead first).

    “….the fascinating message of Islam”.

    Facsinating?…maybe if you can’t read. And are also deaf and blind. The Quran is just a compendium of overheard stories, and regional traditions later written down as disjointed, fractured fairy tales. It’s boring.

      Flavius, this article is based on exit polls. would U tell somebody whom U didn’t know that U had voted for the SD, when admitting doing that at work could destroy your career or cause U to lose your job? i think that the folks who said that they voted SD were the *brave* ones; it may well turn out that they did even better. until the SD comes out on top and starts changing things, and the country does *NOT* collapse, will most people begin to acknowledge that they voted SD. it’s not currently safe in terms of income, housing, or professional development to admit association with SD!

    Any Muslim who believes that the U.S. has a fear of Islam is delusional and should be institutionalized.
