The US imposed “stringent sanctions on Iran” after Trump pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal, “a move which has enraged Tehran,” and now Iran is “backing China’s militarisation of the South China Sea” as it pursues a “military alliance with China” against America. Three years ago, Iran and China signed an agreement to enhance defense cooperation, and now this is coming to pass.
“Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi is on an official visit to China to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy.” Strange how Iran has no problems the Chinese government’s abusive crackdown on Muslims in China, the Uighurs. Iran’s steady focus is reflected in its infamous chants: “Death to America.” Death to Israel.”
The Iran-China alliance comes on the heels of the announcement that Iran has also been tightening its relationship with Pakistan. The two state sponsors of jihad terror just formed a Joint Force to combat Terrorism along their common border. Iran regards U.S. Central Command to be a “terrorist group,” so “it is unclear whether the Iran-Pakistan joint task force will target U.S. troops considered terrorists by Tehran.”
Meanwhile, Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu stated last year that “a secret atomic warehouse in Tehran” was discovered by Israel “and accused Europe of appeasing Iran as he sought to rally support for U.S. sanctions against the Islamic Republic.” Obama’s signing of the Iran deal and his history of appeasing the jihadist regime has only emboldened it.
“Iran Warning: Tehran pursues military alliance with China against “arrogant’ US,” by Ciara McGrath, Express, April 24, 2019:
IRAN is backing China’s militarisation of the South China Sea as it seeks to forge a closer alliance with the Communist superpower China and lessen the impact of US sanctions in a move certain to raise tensions with Washington still further.
Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi is on an official visit to China to mark the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy. And he took the opportunity to stress the close diplomatic, economic, trade and energy ties between Tehran and Beijing – while taking a swipe at “trans-regional states”, a clear reference to the USA. He told Iranian news agency Fars: “Given the strategic geopolitical situation of both states, today, we are witnessing a leap in marine civilisation in the Pacific Ocean by China and Northern Indian Ocean by Islamic Iran, which will force the arrogant powers to leave our naval zones and the regional powers will certainly fill the security vacuum and there will be no need to foreigners’ presence.
“The world should know that the trans-regional states’ deployment in Northern Indian Ocean is meaningless, and that collective security will be achieved only by the regional states.”
Prior to his trip, Mr Khanzadi said he was keen to strengthen links between the navies of the two countries.
He said: “The navies of the regional countries can provide security of the Indian Ocean.”
Speaking at AJA University of Command and Staff in Tehran, he referenced Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei to as having said that “the presence of power in the sea per se is a sign of power, so if we want to be in the sea, we need knowledge, technology, specialist human forces and very advanced equipment”.
In another clear reference to the US, he added: “if we have a political and defensive diplomacy, we can defeat the enemies’ strategy of imposing sanctions.”
The US has imposed stringent sanctions on Iran after President Donald Trump took the decision to pull out of the Joint Plan of Comprehensive Action (JPOCA) agreement aimed at preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons last year – a move which has enraged Tehran….

Walter Sieruk says
Just the topic of Iran by itself might be disturbing enough to some people. Now China might add to this fiasco.
On the subject of Iran ,apart for China , The following message concerning this “mullah regime” of Iran need to be made clear.
The sanctions against this “mullah regime” of Iran is both appropriate and necessary.
About those economic sections against that heinous “mullah regime” that is in power in Iran on Monday 4/22/19 the US Secretary of State ,Michael Pompeo spoke of that brutal and oppressive tyranny which oppresses the people of Iran and said “We will not appease their oppressors as that t last administration did .” Pompeo then stated “We will support the Iranian people.”
As far back as on Tuesday, 2/5/ 19 in his second State on the Union a speech President Trump spoke of that Islamic tyranny of Iran as well as those in total power and complete of that tyrannical rogue state. For the President declared “It is a radical regime, they do bad, bad things.”
Moreover, an author of an article on a Freedom Site, Dariush Afshar, had explained the reality of the situation well when he wrote that the “People of Iran who fight for freedom in Iran and abroad put a huge gap and draw a prominent line between Iran and the Islamic regime in Tehran.”
This is sadly and tragically the terrible reality of this Islamic tyrannical regime of Iran. This Islamic tyranny has been well nicknamed “the mullahs regime” in which them mullahs and ayatollahs as well as other fiendish and fanatical Muslims in power have a strong and awful control of the Islamic regime of Iran and through their band of Islamic state “police” , who are called the “Revolutionary Guards “come down hard human rights of the Iranian people . Therefore, the Iranian people who are trapped and forced to exist in this Islamic tyranny live in terrible fear of the mullahs and others in power in Iran. This is a tragic and sad reminder of the wisdom that was printed in the periodical of Benjamin Franklin which is entitled POOR RICHARDS’ ALMANAC that reads “Those who are feared are also hated.”

The Iranians should study the history of China & realize thar Iranians are not Chinese.
gravenimage says
They know that Chinese are not Iranians. They just hope to ally against the free world.
Westman says
Iran is a run by a cult-personality Muslim government having minority support. Such governments require draconian suppression to stay in power.
Getting in bed with China may lead, long term, to regime change in Iran and Pakistan when their leaders get in the way of China’s aspirations. They might find themselves getting the belt and joining Jimmy Hoffa, under the road.
gravenimage says
I doubt it–China has played footsie with Iran for a long time now. China has helped Iran build missiles and has aided them in developing nukes–and they both hate the free West.
Walter Sieruk says
This new alliance of the Communists of China with the mullahs of Iran against President Thump will be only more mayhem in the political /religious world.
Such an “Red/Green alliance” is a mild reminder of the words found in the Bible book of Proverbs .
For Proverbs 11:21. reads “Though they join forces , the wicked will not go unpunished.” [N.K.J.V]
Therefore, if the wicked be the follower of Karl Marx or the false prophet , Muhammad , all their schemes of evil will come back down on them sooner or later.

I have a question for you:
As seen in the video below, Jewish liberals in the West wen to mosques and fraternized with Islamists after the N.Z mosque shooting or whenever muslims play their victim cards in the West. Now in Sri Lanka, hundreds of Christians lie dead and wounded in the Easter jihad attacks there and NO Jewish group went to church and/or expressed the same compassion and fraternity to Christians anywhere. Why is that?
gravenimage says
We see once again that christianblood assumes that Mortimer is Jewish–and only because he calls christianblood on his vicious claptrap. Like Muslims, he assumes that everyone he hates is Jewish.
Then christianblood has done this before–posed as enraged at Jews in Sri Lanka not reaching out to the Christian community there as proof that Jews hate Christians–completely ignoring the fact–which I have pointed out to him–that there is *no Jewish community* in Sri Lanka, and no Synagogues there.
Meanwhile, one of the first nations to reach out to Sri Lanka in the wake of the attacks has been Israel–which christianblood ignores even though I have pointed it out to him. Also, Israel trained many first responders in Sri Lanka, and so has likely saved many lives in these attacks.
But christianblood does not care about any of this–he just wants to slam Jews for caring about others.

Stop the cheap personal attacks and name calling, Graven!
I asked a legitimate question here, answer it or shut up!
gravenimage says
No, it is not a legitimate question, as I make clear. christianblood attacking Jews for the Sri Lankan Jewish community not reaching out to Christians there where it is pointed out to him that there *is no Jewish community in Sri Lanka* means that that this a dishonest question.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Sri_Lanka
“Neither practising Jews, nor people who preserved a knowledge of being descendants of Jews, appear to have survived from that early period..”
This *is* an answer.
And of course christianblood wants me to shut up–how *dare* I point out his dishonesty?

Update you knowledge about Islam:
Iran is a Shiite country! Chinese muslims, as majority of muslims are, are Sunnis
and Sunnis, especially Wahhabi/Salafi Sunnis hate Iran and Shiites and consider them
as “infidels” and would like to exterminate them!
gravenimage says
Of course, Muslims in general hate Infidels cracking down on *any* pious Muslims. But Iran clearly cherishes the chance to strike at the “Great Satan” regardless–as, no doubt, does christianblood himself.

rbla says
If this guy doesn’t look like a Nazi, vintage WW2, nobody does. The Uighurs might be Sunni bit the mullahs always boast that they are defenders of Islam in general and have no problem allying with Hamas, Turkey and the Muslim Brotherhood. This alliance explains their deafening silence on the Uighurs. Warning to the Chinese, after the Muslims eliminate the West (and Russia) they’re coming for you.
Westman says
China has no moral footing in religion or philosophy. If the Muslim world turns on China it will have no conscience in annihilating the OIC nations. China wants geographic expansion and the OBOR project is intended to create corridors that will never be relinquished. It is the Muslim world in danger from these accords.
rbla says
After we in the West have stupidly done away with ourselves and it comes to China vs. the Muslims, I’m rooting for the Chinese.
