Jihad Watch

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

Iran, Turkey, China and Russia celebrate the “collapse” of the United States

Jun 5, 2020 12:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“Authoritarian regimes throughout the world are pushing narratives that appear to gloat over and celebrate that chaos unfolding in the United States.” They include Iran, Turkey, China and Russia.

The Leftist-Jihadist alliance, the red-green axis, has long been — and is continuously — addressed on Jihad Watch. Proponents of Marxism and Islamization, and regimes that severely restrict the freedom of their people, are destroying America from within. More reports HERE. The topic of revolution, jihadists and Black Lives Matter has also been addressed HERE. The riots and chaos in America that have expanded to other regions of the world are a calculated effort to manipulate victimhood and fan the flames of identity politics to destroy America from within.

The leadership in Turkey and Iran view their goal as undermining the US through a more religious lens linked with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Muslim Brotherhood that influences Tehran and Ankara respectively. Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan sought to capitalize on the recent riots in the US, claiming that America is part of an “unjust order” in the world.

This undermining is at every level. A reminder of the Muslim Brotherhood’s goal:

The Ikhwan (the Muslim Brotherhood) must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s (Allah’s) religion is made victorious over all other religions.” The Muslim Brotherhood’s credo is: “Allah is our goal; Muhammad is our leader; the Koran is our constitution; Jihad is our way; and dying for Allah is our highest hope.”

“Iran, Russia, China, Turkey celebrate ‘collapse’ of US,” by Seth J. Frantzman, Jerusalem Post, June 2, 2020:

Authoritarian regimes throughout the world are pushing narratives that appear to gloat over and celebrate that chaos unfolding in the United States. On Monday, Iran’s media pushed stories that highlighted the “collapse,” while quoting Russian sources portraying that the US is flailing about as its world order comes crashing down.

The US became the world’s most powerful country, a global hegemonic superpower, after the Soviet Union and its client states fell apart in 1989. However, Russia, China, Iran and increasingly Turkey have all awaited the period when the world would become multi-polar again. They have sought to work more closely together, and they have sat frequently at global forums that the US does not attend.

To coordinate efforts against the US, these countries all have state media that is well funded, such as RT, TRT, Iran’s Tasnim and Fars News and numerous Chinese media outlets. The policies of these countries are to slowly undermine the US and wait for moments of US weakness to push their agendas.

The leadership in Turkey and Iran view their goal as undermining the US through a more religious lens linked with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Muslim Brotherhood that influences Tehran and Ankara respectively. Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan sought to capitalize on the recent riots in the US, claiming that America is part of an “unjust order” in the world.

Iran’s former president made similar comments about the declining US “order.” This is a reference to the concept of the “axis of resistance” in Iran, and the defeat of US “arrogance.” Ever since the Islamic Revolution in Iran of 1979, there had been a call for a third way between the US and Soviet Union in the 1980s that would bring about the defeat of Western systems and the rise of political Islam rooted in Tehran and then in Ankara.

Ankara is a nominal US ally, but it has drifted away and signed deals to acquire Russia’s S-400 anti-missile defense system. It seeks to partition Syria with Iran and Russia. Turkey and Iran coordinate in efforts against Israel and both support Hamas. They broadly work together against other US partners, such as Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE and Egypt.

Now the protests in the US and the COVID-19 crisis have made Washington appear to be declining rapidly. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the US was now having to deal with its police misconduct and said the US compared unfavorably with Russia. “Thank God things that happen in America do not happen in [Russia],” he said, according to Russia’s TASS media.

Aleksey Pushkov, a senator in Russia’s parliament and an expert on foreign policy, argued on Twitter that the US is crumbling. He said that US withdrawals from Afghanistan and Syria, Turkey ordered the US to leave and attacked US Kurdish allies, was an example of American decline.

He also tweeted that the US crumbling due to COVID-19 and the inability of the US to help Europe or its allies at the peak of the pandemic. He said America has been on a “hysterical” tirade against China and now faces an internal schism and racial rebellion…..

    The Red-Green Axis gloats over the confused American electorate. This is the result of 80 years of neo-Marxist ‘Frankfurt School’ propaganda from school teachers.

    American young people have largely never understood their system of government nor its underlying principles. That is a huge tragedy for the country, because the young are unequipped to participate as good citizens.

    What we see now is that ‘The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity’ (Yeats).

    Emptied-headed blathermouths like AOC are followed and believed more than America’s dean of human rights lawyers, Alan Dershowitz.

    The Globalist owners of mainstream media are at war against the working class. They are not Marxists, but counter-revolutionary, bourgeois, Globalist-Capitalist roaders.

    The current level of racism in the US is lower than it has been in the history of the country, and gets lower all the time. It is immigrants from foreign lands filled with tribalism that are the real racists in the US today. Those opportunistic politicians who stir up and exaggerate the level of racism are fuelling a potential race war. Then they come to punish the white people, how will the hate-filled, revenge-driven minorities distinguish between the bleeding-heart white liberals and the conservatives? Obviously, the mobs won’t care because they have been told it’s ok to judge white people by the color of their skin. We’re not supposed to call that ‘reverse-racism’ for some convoluted reason … even though that is also racism.

    I get how these vile regimes hate the western democratic nations and they would rejoice in any problems that the USA is facing, but how do Muslim countries like Iran and Turkey get together with China, which seems to loathe islam and Muslims and is carrying out some type of annihilation of the Muslims in China? Talk about strange bed fellows.

      Every country has it’s own problem so it’s better to keep focusing and solving your own problem rather than focusing on other country’s problem.

        AG, the idea that we should ignore the fact that these totalitarian nations are slavering over our (supposed) immanent destruction is mistaken.

        Some of us can actually improve things at home while keeping an eye on those abroad who also want to destroy us.

        • tim gallagher says

          Jun 6, 2020 at 12:32 am

          Well said, gravenimage. I usually hear it referred to as being able to walk and chew gum at the same time, this ability that some of us possess, where we can actually take an interest in domestic affairs but still are actually able to also take note of what is happening elsewhere. My point from up above remains, it is hard to see how Iran and Turkey would get along with China, while it murders their Muslim mates, but I guess they don’t really care about their Muslims mates and as long as they all hate the western way of life, they’ll all get along. Just out of interest, gravenimage, are you affected at all by these riots in the USA, gravenimage? I guess things will settle down soon. I suppose it is easy for most people to stay out of the way of the rioting and looting crowd, unless you are unlucky enough to own one of those shops that have been trashed. Some of it has looked really bad, watching it on the TV news in Australia.

        • gravenimage says

          Jun 7, 2020 at 12:22 am

          Agreed, Tim.

          And I have been affected by the riots, Tim. I live in Oakland, California, and things have been bad here. Given the lay out of the city, protesters from downtown often come right up into our neighborhood. We’ve had helicopters overhead for the past week and a half.

          A Mercedes Benz dealership and Target store just blocks from my home were looted and trashed. We are mostly staying at home and keeping our heads down right now. I feel so bad for the businesses–some of which are, incidentally, black-owned. You can’t get insurance for damage done by riots.

          I think things are winding down now–I hope so. There have been threats to bring the riots to Australia, as well–I hope this doesn’t happen.

        AG,

        It’s vitally important to do both.

        Countries like the United States should pay very close attention to what is happening in places like Western Europe.

        It is the “canary in the coal mine”, its policies a “harbinger of things to come” to the United States – if we are not well-informed and vigilant…

    To other non Americans, you had all better start letting the world, and Americans too, know that the U.S. has loyal friends who will stand with them against the ilks of China, Russia, Iran and Turkey.

    The news of the US imminent collapse has been highly exaggerated in ignorance of what true freedom can accomplish.

    Jun 6, 2020 at 6:57 am

    Protests are part of a democratic country’s political process and citizens’ rights – the totalitarian and Islamic regimes would not of course understand this.

    The riots that sometimes follow (and not only in the US) are criminal acts which should be punished with the full force of the law.

    And nobody here would disagree I’m sure that violent cops who do not act within the law should also be punished with the full force of the law. Which had already been done before these riots as he’d been arrested.

    There’s much to comment on here, but I’m just going to say something about “the Koran is our constitution.” This should make it 100% clear that Islam is a political movement.

      Turkey was a member of the Central Powers, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey and Bulgaria during WWI. Turkey was a cold war ally against the soviets who were supposedly our allies during WWII. As a result of WWI Turkey was a non entity during WWII. Perhaps they were afraid that the USSR would move on them so they allied with the USA. The USSR is gone and yes we should re-evaluate and perhaps change many things. The cold war ended but nothing was ever re evaluated.

      Turkey is not the ally of the UK or the USA.

      The USA was due for a shakeup and with this virus the riots and the honorable service of President Trump we are getting that shake up. I see good things ahead for all of us.

    Dictators never seem to get it right. China probably is celebrating their C-19 attack on America at the cost of thousand of lives in their own country and around the world. And of course Russia would join that party and I guess we now who’s side Turkey is now on. The only thing they haven’t figured out is at what cost it will be to them.

    What makes Middle Eastern Muslims happy? When bad things happen to non-Muslims, especially if they said really bad words about Muhammad;

    “When the apostle heard what she had said he said, “Who will rid me of Marwan’s daughter?” Umayr b. Adiy al-Khatmi who was with him heard him, and that very night he went to her house and killed her. In the morning he came to the apostle and told him what he had done and he [Muhammad] said, “You have helped God and His apostle, O Umayr!” When he asked if he would have to bear any evil consequences the apostle said, “Two goats won’t butt their heads about her”, so Umayr went back to his people.”

    This is “historian” Ibn Ishaq reporting on Omayr B. Adiyy’s journey to kill Asma D. Arwan. Muhammad had strongly suggested to his thugs that her death would please him. Even then people threw their biological imperative to NOT to kill you own species out the window because Muhammad said so. Dehumanizing the outsider is a tried and true method of holding onto previously recruited, former, human beings, hypocrisy be damned.
