Iran: Top dog of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps tells US and Israel “We will destroy you”

Nov 28, 2019 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

Fox follows the standard establishment media practice here of leaving the “Islamic” part out of the name “Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.” Why? Why must the American people be constantly lied to and misled? This organization calls itself the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Why should the American media call it anything else? What are they trying to accomplish, and why?

“Iranian commander warns US, allies, ‘We will destroy you,'” by Louis Casiano, Fox News, November 25, 2019:

The head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard on Monday threatened to destroy the United States and its Middle Eastern allies, accusing them during a televised speech of instigating the violent protests that erupted earlier this month after the announcement of massive fuel price hikes.

Speaking to tens of thousands of people holding signs with anti-U.S. slogans in Tehran’s Revolution Square, Gen. Hossein Salami accused the U.S., Britain, Saudi Arabia and Israel of fueling the deadly unrest.

“We have shown restraint. … We have shown patience toward the hostile moves of America, the Zionist regime (Israel) and Saudi Arabia against the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he said. “If you cross our red line, we will destroy you. We will not leave any move unanswered.”…

During Monday’s rally, speakers called for capital punishment for rioters and further restrictions on social media….

    After living in the US for a year, I can now better understand why the media lie by omission: Americans are such good people that they would not believe that over a billion people believe in pure evil. My wife actually teaches sharia and IR classes at a major research university and she has fun with her students. There is always a moment when they go: no way they believe this grotesque shit! We need to find more voices to speak up for sanity. Happy Thanksgiving!

      As I Islamic leaders excel have said many times the one thing on which these Islamic leaders excel, is bombast. Remember Saddam and his mother of all battles and more recently Erdogan?
      Of course it is into those leaders who will be dieing when the battles come.

    “This organization calls itself the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Why should the American media call it anything else? What are they trying to accomplish, and why?”

    Not just here. Myself, my clients, my friends, we’re all pro-life. We want to be called pro-life. Some of us have operate groups with the words “Pro-Life” in their corporate names.

    But we’re called “anti-abortion.” Now certainly we are anti-abortion, but that’s not the way we describe ourselves. We want the positive; the left wants us to be seen as negative.

    Similarly, calling Islam, endlessly, a religion of peace tinges it with a positive. But Islam means to submit which is rightly seen as a negative.

    The forces of darkness surround us, but there is Hope in He Who Lives.

    “The Mother of All Wars” and “…destruction before the gates of Baghdad” was answered by “Shock and Awe” for Iraq. How would Iran prefer to have its just desserts served? Tariq Aziz had his served hot. Would Gen. Hossein Salami perhaps prefer his served cold while he is strapped over a barrel?
    What ever came of the much touted research on a Neutron Bomb? If we have a prototype ready for testing, I believe that Tehran is volunteering as the test subject.

    (Gen) Hossein Salami? That sounds like something that should be sliced and placed on a pizza, or, maybe a piazza?

    It seems that in a bully regime the bullies rise to the top of the “leadership”. One could imagine the Islamic threaded corruption runs deep like arteries between the Ayatollahs, Mullahs and military commanders while other’s lives are cheap. There is no real democracy where protestors are killed and only the regime has a voice. Iran is simply another North Korea with leadership that only wants sycophants and kills any opposition.

    It’s a travesty that Shia Islam has turned the Persian homeland, having the greatest potential in the ME, into a prison camp that will, ultimately, end in violence after delusional mis-steps. It’s a pity that Iran has unearned wealth, oil, simply as a matter of geography which finances the regime to export its terrorism.

    Bellowing miltary commanders like Salami have been yelling their never-consumated threats to destroy Israel and the US for decades. In reality the more they threaten, the more obvious is the efficacy of the sanctions.

    I remember when Saddam’s “big bad guard” said the same things. Then they screamed like little piggies after a month of B-52’s carpet bombing them. Too bad our GENIUS Intel community got the WMD problem ALL WRONG!!

    Take away their bluster and what is left …… the same empty threats and rhetoric that has always come from Iran.

    The USA is not afraid to step on or over any red line in the sand that these cartoon like figures want to place down.

    That said the USA will not be baited and led into a trap of political subterfuge, which is exactly what this bluster is all about.

    Shouting insults from a safe space does not make for a very good world image and Iran should keep their leaders’ outrage in check in case they go too far.

    Bullies are always full of hot air until it comes time to pay the piper.

    PS: …and by a mighty hand. Unlike your fairy-tale allah, THE Almighty is not so so pathetically impotent as to require smelly-arsed human heathen to do his serious bidding and business in judgement – and judgement is coming islamic heathen.

    Fox is better than the other American networks to be sure but they’re still dhimmi compliant. Look how Jeanine Pirro was temporarily put on ice by Fox back in March of this year because she dared to point out what the stupid head covering (hijab) of Omar really means—a sartorial symbol of Sharia and which putrid legal system is antithetical to the American Constitution.

    THE PROBLEM remains, i.e., not directly pointing to and calling out the elephant in the room. This particular elephant is Islam—all of it, the whole damn effing piss-poor excuse for a religion. Yes, ALL OF IT.

    P.S. My apologies to elephants for the metaphor. No disrespect meant.

    The Yanks turned up with about 1/10th of their Army & walked through Iraq – the world’s 4th. largest Army at the time – in under 3days when the fighting started. how long does one think this rabid crowd would last? Pure delusion on the part of this ‘General’. This time the Yanks should do it right. They pissed around in Iraq & left a mess.

    This threat of “We will destroy you” is keeping with the national character of the rough Islamic state of Iran . Therefore that attack, by Iran, should be of no surprise to any informant person, in fact , this fits in with the real legacy of Ayatollah Khomeini who was the Imam who was so powerful that he played large role in the establishment of the current Islamic tyranny of Iran which has the official title of “ The Islamic Republic of Iran” Khomeini had declared “ Jihad or Holy War ,which is for the conquest of [other ] countries and kingdoms , becomes incumbent after the formation of the Islamic State in the presence of the Imam or in accordance with his command. Then Islam makes it incumbent on all males…to prepare themselves for the conquest of countries so that the writ of Islam is obeyed in every country in the world… those who study Islamic Holy War will understand why Islam wants to conquer the whole world. The goal of this conquest would be to establish the hegemony of Islamic law.” [1]

    This vicious threat “We will destroy you” is staying within with the long history of that violent “mullah regime” of Iran. Likewise also goes with bounds All this fits with the actual legacy of Ayatollah Khomeini is the of violence and war. To be more specific Islamic violence and war. Strangely, there are many young people and strangely many older people, who are Westerns who in the United States as well other countries of the West are, no doubt sincere but very misinformed ,as in misled, therefore say ,because they believe it, that “Islam is a peaceful and non-violent religion .” To those people the first and supreme Ayatollah Khomeini , who was the very head this current Islamic regime of Iran knows better stated about how he feels about those naïve Westerns .For he declared “Islam grew with blood….Islam is a religion of blood for the infidels” He also said “Those who know nothing of Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war….I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.” [1]

    So, in other words Ayatollah Khomenei felt nothing but arrogant contempt for those people who say that his religion “Is a peaceful religion” and understand that they in ignorant and uninformed.

    Therefore the West needs to wake up to the reality of the truth about the actual violent essence of this religion.
