“Millions of propaganda instruments are operating against the Islamic Republic.”
Really? Then the Islamic Republic must have tens of millions of propaganda instruments of its own, including the entire American Left.
“Bully’ U.S. Is Targeting Country Because It’s a Symbol of Resistance,” by David Brennan, Newsweek, January 20, 2020:
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has branded the U.S. a “highway bully” that is only targeting his nation because leaders in Washington cannot brook dissent.
Speaking in Tehran on Monday, Khamenei cast his regime as a “religious democracy” that is refusing to bow to an American-dominated world order, the state-controlled Press TV reported.
“The resistance of the Islamic Republic of Iran against America and the Iranian nation’s refusal to undergo bullying is a fascinating fact for the world and this fascination should be used to spread the truth about Islam and the Iranian nation,” Khamenei said.
He added: “The reason Americans are angry with the Iranian nation is the appeal which arises from the image of resistance in an independent system standing up against a highway bully.”…
Khamenei, however, is retaining his stubborn stance on the U.S. question, even as his regime grapples with renewed protests sparked by the downing of the passenger jet. The ayatollah said Monday that “millions of propaganda instruments are operating against the Islamic Republic.”…

Those mullahs and the others in power in Iran are the real, actual, “Highway bully” Not the USA
The Islamic tyrants in power in Iran calling America a “bully ” is a reminder of the old saying that “if a man point his finger at some else there are three more fingers pointing back at him. ”
So thoroughly deceitful, demonic, wicked, vicious and cruel that they will not change their malicious ways. As explain in the Bible “What is crooked cannot be straightened; which is lacking cannot be counted.” Ecclesiastes 1:15. [N.I.V.]
Indeed, those malice -filled and hateful Muslim clerics who have much power in Iran along with the other Islamic stooges who rule Iran “cannot be counted” to make any chances for the better . The ayatollahs and mullahs in their like-minded Muslim partners in total governmental control of Iran are very anti- female m as in extremely misogynistic and oppressive ruthless to both girls and woman as well as all of the Iranian people who are trapped in forced to existed in this diabolical Islamic regime. As it is written in Proverbs 15:15. “All the days of the oppressed are wretched.” Likewise, Ecclesiastes 4:1 reads “ I saw the tears of the oppressed – and they have no comforter; power was in the side of the oppressors …”
Furthermore ,Proverbs 28:15 very well describes such wicked characters who rule Iran as president Rouhani and ayatollah Khamenei . For it reads “Like a roaring lion or a charging bear is a wicked ruler over a helpless people.”
Furthermore, such a vicious mindset of heinous arrogance of Rouhani, Khamenei and the other hateful and spiteful Islamic clerics in this “mullah regime” of Iran is reflected in the words from the Bible describing tyrannical villains in power of an oppressive regime. For Psalm 73:6—9 read “Therefore pride is their necklace:: they clothe themselves with violence. From their callous hearts comes iniquity; their evil ;their evil imaginations have no limits. They scoff and speak with malice; with arrogance they threaten oppression. Their mouths lay claim to heaven, and their tongues take possession of the earth.”
About that heinously brutal, cruel vicious tyrannical “mullah regime” of Iran has terribly failed to deliver the lying promises it held out the for Iranian people when is first attempted to and then gained and tool power . Now many of the disillusioned and disappointed Iranians have woke up the lies and harsh rule of this Islamic tyranny which they are trapped and forced to exist in. Some of them have even gone further and seen through many falsehoods of the false doctrines of Islam.
As lest one Christian writer came right out and wrote about this reality when he revealed , in his book, that “The creation of an Islamic republic in Iran has had the effect that many from that country in Iran have become disillusioned with Islam are looking to leave.” [1]

Agree: mullahs are the real, actual, “Highway bullies”. They always blame the kafir, never themselves. It’s more psychological projection from the Muslims … this comes from the Koran. Muslims have trouble seeing themselves in the mirror. Islam puts independent thinking to sleep so Muslims can look right at the facts and the truth and never draw any logical conclusion from them.
They only see what Islam tells them to see, even when all the surrounding facts dispute their conclusions.
FYI says
The Bible is banned in any muslim countries despite the fact that allah 1]confirms it as being TRUE {koran3:3} and 2]even tells muslims to consult it as a reference {koran 10:94},no doubt because the mullahs would lose their power and their influence:if the Iranians read the Gospel the Truth would set them free.
The lie that the Bible was corrupted facilitates the mullahs as the last thing they want is for muslims to read the Bible{or even the “perfect” koran:they might notice all the errors in the koran}
If Iranians got rid of allah the Arab god with his “perfect” koran and his ‘holy’ men and replaced all that with the Bible and the Actual Biblical God and ,coupled that with a secular component that separated religion and state{which is important as theocracies are a bad thing as the iranian people know well}allowed freedom of the press etc ,then the Iranians would have a better ,more advanced,country.
The mullahs use islam as a totalitarian system to control the Iranian people through fears and terror,a people who deserve much better that a linguistically challenged one shinned,two right handed idiot of an ARAB god, al lah.
allah,inconveniently doesn’t even speak Farsi!
{The Actual Biblical God has Bibles in ALL languages including Farsi and thus we see the Biblical God is a Universal God and the islamic koranic moron of a god allah is a muslim-only god,i.e not a universal god for humanity}
I wonder why the Iranians bother with an ARAB god{who is so obtuse he insists he can only be understood through Arabic}when the Judeo-Christian God,the Real Deal, can be understood in Farsi{or ANY language},and who would be a better God{after all,unlike allah,He has the Golden Rule,the two chief LOVE commandments,speaks ALL languages,is neither antisemitic nor antichristian etc}

Iran has a semblance of democracy, but it is window-dressing. It’s a rather homogeneous group of politicians that show up in the Iranian parliament. There is no real opposition in Iran’s parliament. An organized, legal opposition party is what forces democracy to stay ‘real’, by placing a CHECK on the desires of the ruling party to implement plans that are against the expressed will of the people or to lie to them or to line the pockets of the ruling party leaders.
There is no open opposition in Iran, so it is a democracy in name only. It’s rigged to act as a one-party state.

Only a Muslim could pretend to believe this crap. Must we fight a second nation of lunatic Aryans only a lifetime after Hitler?

This shows what happens whne words are separated from their normal meanings in the interest of propaganda.

Look up the term tawriyah. Its s well-defined subclass of Muslim lies.

I don’t believe any of these thuggish, bullying, dictatorial mullahs, who stomp all over the rights of people in Iran and other Muslim countries, would recognise true democracy even it came up and bit them on the bum. In western civilised countries, there is genuine democracy, but I’m sure it doesn’t exist in any of these Muslim countries. These primitive mullah types use words like democracy, but it is a concept that they don’t have the type of mentality to support at all. I’m sure that freedom of speech and the right to hold demonstrations are integral to any true democracy, but didn’t Iran crack down on and imprison the women who demonstrated against having to wear Islamic clothing? That type of thuggish crushing of any opposition is the mentality these mullahs have. My attitude is that whatever creatures like this mullah say, you can be sure the opposite will be the truth. A lot of words get thrown around and mean nothing. “Democracy” coming from a Muslim religious thug like this man is one of them.

Khamenei says Islamic Republic of Iran is “religious democracy” that is “image of resistance” to “highway bully” US
……………………..
“Religious democracy”–funny how that looks a lot like brutal Shari’ah law…
Westman says
And an oxymoron only swallowed by the stupid. The tyrant who controls Iran is not elected and can determine whether any person can actually run for an office. That is the power of a dictator; and a proper desciption of Khamenei. Iran’s puppet government is nothing but a dictator inside a thin facade of “democracy” – the man behind the smoke and mirrors; the king who has a big mouth and no clothes.
Iran is not Arab. They are stuck with a brutal primitive religion because their ancestors were ravaged by Arabs. When will they wake up to the fact that they are the elite of the region and expel this burning tire around their necks? Another 500,000 men lost for nothing because a brain-addled old man thinks a 7th century book gives him the right to spend human lives? Let’s hope Iran’s citizens soon send him and his minions to join the club of past tyrants.

Sharia Democracy id an Islamic nonsense.

There is no such thing as religious democracy. What we see here in Iran goes against the logic of Separation of Church nd State:
“Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between Church and State.”
Thomas Jefferson’s letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802.
A theocracy like Iran Is a top-down imposition of religious / ideological tenets that applies to all people in the same nation, whether they like it or not, and it’s not supposed to really serve them in any way. That’s a dictatorship, not a democracy. And it applies to both secular and religious top-down rule. Stalin was a dictator, Pol Pot, Mao,…etc. Sharia Law is simply a handy system to keep totalitarian chains on people who have better things to think of, beside their personal evaluation of religion, to thrive in their day to day life, like all the socio-economic issues on the individual level. The same applied to communism and the like. The same applies also to the clerical Wahhabist grasp in Saudi Arabian society.
There should be no establishment of religion on the level of a nation’s government, or else all people are supposed to act and think the same, and face the consequences if they display dissention. Which is the very epitome of dictatorship. And that’s what mullahcracy means in practice: dictatorship.
WithPurpleAbandon says
Plus, democracy is inherently an infidel concept. It can never apply to majority muslim societies. Khamenei speaks of a concept that will never be established in Islamic societies ever. Only a PC moonbat could swallow such a ruse.

OLD GUY says
Khamenei is so full of shit he is a living breathing dictator. The only thing he cares about is his maintaining power and rule. He is no different than Hitler or any of the other communist that try to control the lives of others and destroy their freedoms.
Sam says
Democracy defined “government in which the supreme power is held by the people and used by them directly or indirectly through representation” My assumption is that people are diverse with various intellectual and political needs. Khamanei is frivolous in his pronouncement in an Iranian democracy. Freedom is only guaranteed for the compliant sector. Intellectual freedom is subjected the terms and conditions of the Shari’a. This is observed through forceful clothing and the interminable execution of dissenters and the covert destabilization of the region. Religious democracy can only be confirmed by paralleling Iran’s freedoms with those elsewhere( not the Dar al Islam)
John says
islam, a Barbaric Totalitarian Ideology of Savages. Islam has a position or rule for every aspect of life. It is a religion, culture and political system, a complete way of life. If Islam were only a religion, it would be of no concern. As an example, Buddhism is a religion, how much media and political space is concerned about Buddhism? Buddhism makes no demands on a civilization. Islam makes demands on every facet of society.
Totalitarianism is a political system of absolute power where the state has no limit to its authority and regulates most aspects of public and private life. There are no competing political parties since they would balance and limit authority. The critical element of totalitarianism is absolute power striving to rule in as many areas of life as possible.
Totalitarianism in Islamic Doctrine
Totalitarianism is found in the very name, Islam. Islam means submission, submission to the Koran and the Sunna of Mohammed. We see the basis for absolute power in Mohammed’s life. After he went to Medina, he became a jihadist and attacked his neighbors. When he arrived in Medina, it was half Jewish. In two years, there were no more Jews left in Medina. They were exiled, assassinated, enslaved and executed. Mohammed attacked the pagans of Arabia and the Jews. After Arabia submitted to Islam, Mohammed turned to Syria and attacked the Christians.
In the end, Political Islam will not tolerate opposition. After Mohammed died, Abu Bakr, his closest companion, became caliph. His first order was to attack and crush the Muslims who wanted to leave Islam. Everyone must submit to Islam and once a Muslim, you must remain a Muslim, or you can be punished.
The next companion of Mohammed who became caliph was Umar. His ten year rule was spent in jihad conquest of the Christian and Zoroastrian Kafirs.
Turkey used to be called Anatolia or Asia Minor and was a Christian civilization. Today Turkey is over 95% Muslim. North Africa, Egypt, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon used to be Christian. Afghanistan was Buddhist; Pakistan and Malaysia used to be Hindu. Today they are more than 95% Muslim. Islam does not reach a balance point with the native civilization; it dominates and annihilates the indigenous culture over time.
This process of total civilizational domination is the Law of Islamic Saturation. The doctrine calls for jihad to never cease until the native population submits to the Sharia. As time goes on, the Sharia brings about submission to Islam. The doctrine is totalitarian, so the result is totalitarian.
Islam is the most successful totalitarian system in history. There are post-Communist societies and post-Nazi societies but, there are no post Islamic societies.
