Rouhani: “It is unbearable for the United States to accept the victory” of the Islamic Republic of Iran

Feb 13, 2020 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Given the Iranian people’s massive discontent with the Islamic regime, it may not be something that anyone will have to bear much longer.

“Iran’s Rouhani says Islamic Revolution ‘unbearable’ for US,” AFP, February 11, 2020:

Tehran (AFP) – Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani charged Tuesday that the United States finds it “unbearable” that the Islamic Revolution remains in place 41 years after bringing down US ally the shah.

“It is unbearable for the United States to accept the victory of a great nation and that a superpower has been driven out of this land,” Rouhani told a rally in Tehran marking the anniversary of the ouster of the shah and establishment of the Islamic republic in 1979.

“It is natural for them to have dreamt, for 41 years, of returning to this land, because they know that we are one of the most powerful countries” in the Middle East, he added.

Rouhani was speaking at a rally in Tehran’s Azadi Square marking the anniversary, at a time of heightened tensions with the United States….

“In the past two years, America has put so much pressure on our beloved people, on all of our trade, all of our exports, all of our imports, and all of the country’s needs, to exhaust the patience of our people,” said Rouhani.

But “the Americans did not understand the greatness of the Iranian people,” he said.

“The United States believes it is facing 41 years of civilisation. No, the Americans are facing thousands of years of Iranian civilisation.”

    Rouhani’s islamic revolution forces were the ones that shot down that plane with Iranians on board.

    Iranians should never forget that.

    Or that the god of the islamic revolution,{al}LAH,is a foreign ARAB god who is so linguistically challenged he doesn’t even speak Farsi.

    How can Iranians subscribe to an ARAB god who doesn’t even speak their language?
    {“What! A FOREIGN TONGUE and an Arab?” koran 41;44}

    Iranians deserve so much better than to be subject to an ARAB god {who hates women,curses Jews and Christians k9:30} and a tyrannical authoritarian religious shower of “holy” men who surely make the lives of the people a misery through lies and fear and who prevent them from developing into a sophisticated modern 21st century society that Iran should be.

      The Koran does not respect man’s laws or national distinctions. Arab, Persian, Filipino, Chechen, British, French, American, those differences are important to the uninformed but are irrelevant to Jihadis..

    Most Iranians find the corrupt mullahocracy UNBEARABLE as well.

    The mullahs will swing from the lamp posts.

      And then they would be replaced by non-Muslim leadership.

    Civilisation?
    Not with slavery, stoning, amputations, forced child marriage, FGM, and so on and so on.
    That is not civilisation.

    Khameini runs a dictatorship, a corrupt, criminal conspiracy that operates against the interests of the Iranian people.

    The enormous size of the various POLICE FORCES in Iran … the secret police, Revolutionary Guard and the auxiliary police force (Basij … plain clothes head breakers) all show that the majority of Iranians are not supporters of the mullahocracy.

    When counterrevolution comes, Khameini will be executed ignominiously like Ceausescu or Kaddafi.

      What are his options and tendencies?

    The mullahs are not in any immediate danger of being overthrown. Unlike the Sha in his final lackluster days, the alert mullahs will use their military thugs (the Pasdaran) to maintain their tyrannical rule for many more years.

    If Iran gave up it’s quest for nuclear weapons, abandoned it’s export of terrorism and called off the calls for “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” Iran would no longer have anything to be concerned with from America.

    But that is impossible because it would be anti-Islamic.

    That cruel and tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran regime has severely limited to an extreme much knowledge and wisdom from the outside world . This is because that fiendish and murderous ayatollahs and mullahs in power in Iran are very much afraid the Iranian people might discover different ideas . As the idea’s and philosophy of John Locke

    For example, Locke views the people living under any genuine government are people retaining their individual rights after a government has been established. In other words, the securing of their rights – the protection of the life, liberty and property of all – is the sole legitimate purpose of government. I If a government begins to abuse those rights it then becomes tyrannical and the governed [the people] retain the right to overthrow that government and replace it with one that does its job properly.

    So that heinous ”mullah regime” of Iran , greatly fears such ideas and keeps the people under his hideous control of his tyranny in and the darkness of much limited information .

    Furthermore, one 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]

    [1]HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD by William Wagner page 208.

      “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.”

      It is hard to be sure of what to make of that sentence. But in any event, we should not place any real hopes on the idea of “moderate Muslims” saving us from the others.

      Bill Warner, PhD: Moderate Muslims Cannot Save Us

      https://youtu.be/-SM9_B02YZg

      “It is frequently said that moderate Muslims can solve the problem of jihad and terror. Everyone has met nice Muslims, some of whom are willing to admit that Islam has problems and may even say that Islamic State is bad. Moderate Muslims are nice people who come to interfaith events, interviews and talks at schools and churches. Moderate Muslims even tell us that they are the real victim, not the Kafir.

      Here is the problem—Islam cannot be changed by anybody, moderate or not. Islam is the civilizational doctrine found in the Koran, Sira and Hadith. Nobody can change the Sunna and the Koran. Their words are eternal, perfect and universal. Nobody can change Islam. It is fixed and frozen by its unalterable doctrine.

      What we call moderation is simply ignoring the violence and hate. But the jihad cannot be removed, it can only be denied by ignoring it. A moderate has the same Allah and Mohammed that a jihadist has.

      Moderate Islam is Islam light, Islam ignored. Islam changes Muslims; Muslims can only choose not to practice the dark side of Islam, but they cannot change it or get rid of it. Islamic doctrine is fixed, eternal, unchangeable and forever.”

    Rouhani: “It is unbearable for the United States to accept the victory” of the Islamic Republic of Iran
    …………………

    What “victory” would that be?

    • WPM says

      Feb 14, 2020 at 9:01 am

      The only “Victory” Islam has is the adoring love of Libtards in the west and the status of “victimhood” for Islam causes in their minds. The blind love of Islam because it is, anti western logic, anti western cultural ,and the embrace of it by progressive leaders in the west is more of a threat to our freedom then all the false boosting these Iranian clowns make against the United States. Why and how blind embrace of these Nazi like leaders of the Islamic world by people who think every religion and cultural is good and equal in its treatment of fellow human beings.

    Pathetic stupid woman. After all according to Islamic Teachings & their “prophet” women are only half as intelligent as men. Allah made them that way. I saw on UK TV News Pages the Democrats are trying to limit the President’s Power to declare war. Strange though, as the President has the Power to veto such a policy. Iran murdered & injured US soldiers in Iraq without a Declaration of War. The US is entitled under Law to wipe Iran off the map. After all, looked what happened to Japan for an unprovoked attack on the USA in 1941. The conflicting thing is…. it’s the ideology of Islam that is at constant war with the non-Muslim World & has been for the past 70years.It is NOT an entity such as a state/country openly declaring war on another country. Time to alter the rules…. Islam is at war with the non-Muslim World, then the non-Muslim World should & must declare War on the Muslim World. Get it all sorted out once & for all.

    Just another dictator shooting off his mouth as to what a great leader he is. All dictatorships follow the same plan of how great they are while the people of their “great” countries pay the price. If you are truly a great leader then the people of your country should be your first concern, not your aggression against other countries. Take care of your people and you will become a great society with pride in your contribution to mankind.
