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

Islamic Republic of Iran: Turkey’s Erdogan champions Islam only as a tool to further his own interests

Dec 5, 2020 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams 6 Comments

Although Iran and Turkey have been friends of convenience because of the fact that they share mutual enemies, both Shia Iran and Sunni Turkey seek regional and ultimately global dominion. Consequently, it was only a matter of time before their ambitions collided, particularly also in light of the ancient and ongoing Sunni-Shia conflict. “Anti-Turkish Statements […]

Iran’s Economy In Free Fall

Nov 17, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald 22 Comments

Iran’s economy has been suffering greatly from the Trump Administration’s re-imposition of sanctions. Majid Rafizadeh recently provided a report on just how bad things have become for the Islamic Republic: “Iran’s Mullahs are in Turmoil Thanks to America’s Current Policy,” Gatestone Institute, November 2, 2020: …Iran’s currency, the rial, lost more than half its value […]

Iran’s Khamenei: ‘Muslim nations will never accept the humiliation of compromising with the Zionist regime’

Oct 24, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams 9 Comments

While Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Sudan are normalizing relations with Israel, the Islamic Republic of Iran remains determined to obliterate Israel, as the Palestinian Arabs and their allies have vowed to do since the birth of the modern state of Israel in 1948. Although the Palestinians claim to want a “two-state” solution, a […]

Khamenei: ‘UAE acts in agreement with filthy Zionist agents of the US – such as the Jewish member of Trump’s family’

Sep 3, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

But of course Twitter, which is acting with increasing impunity against all dissenters from the far-Left agenda, including President Trump himself, doesn’t flag Khamenei. His interests coincide with theirs. “Ayatollah Decries ‘Filthy Zionist Agents of the US – Such as the Jewish Member of Trump’s Family,’” by Patrick Goodenough, CNS News, September 2, 2020: (CNSNews.com) […]

Iran: ‘The UAE’s great betrayal of the Palestinian people will turn this country into a legitimate and easy target’

Aug 16, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

This is the expected reaction, but this time pragmatic considerations are getting more attention than usual, and the Islamic world is not marching in lockstep with this theme. “Iran threatens to attack UAE over Israel deal,” Arab News, August 16, 2020: DUBAI/PARIS/ANKARA: Iran issued an explicit threat on Saturday to launch an attack against the UAE […]

Twitter Allows Iran’s Supreme Leader to Keep Posting His Annihilationist Threats

Aug 5, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

While Twitter allowed the rapper Wiley to post his antisemitic rants, and only banned him from the platform after a widespread boycott of Twitter was underway, it has been consistently solicitous of another, much more dangerous antisemite, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The story is here. A Twitter official on Wednesday informed […]

Khamenei orders prisoners treated with ‘Islamic kindness and affection,’ man faces death penalty for text message

Jul 15, 2020 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Hossein Reyhani faces the death penalty for the charge of “fighting Allah,” because he sent a text message saying “a bank was set on fire.” This is because the text discussed opposition to the regime and suggested that Reyhani opposed it, and to oppose the Islamic regime is to oppose Allah. The Qur’an says: “Fight […]

Islamic Republic of Iran confiscating cars of women who don’t comply with hijab rules

Jun 24, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

While Western feminists stage Hijab Days to show their solidarity with women who wear hijabs and are supposedly menaced by “Islamophobes,” the real oppressed women in Sharia states are those who do not wear hijab. “Authorities Seek to Intimidate Iran’s Society by Oppressing Women,” by Pooya Stone, Iran Focus, June 19, 2020 (thanks to The […]

Ayatollah Khamenei Outraged at American “Racism” (Part 2)

Jun 4, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

In attacking America for its “racism,” the Supreme Leader would no doubt like us to remain unaware of the virulent racism to be found in the works of Arab and Muslim Qur’anic scholars, jurists, historians, and theologians. We need not do his bidding, but can take a look at the extensive evidence for Arab and […]

Ayatollah Khamenei Outraged at American “Racism” (Part 1)

Jun 3, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

It was inevitable that the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would denounce America for its “racism” – meaning, as far as he was concerned, the entire country should be held responsible for the actions of four policemen, one of whom (according to the autopsy, accidentally) asphyxiated a black man they were attempting to subdue.

Iran’s Khamenei: Fighting for “liberation of Palestine” is “Islamic duty”

May 25, 2020 11:00 am By Robert Spencer

Once again Iran’s Supreme Leader frames the conflict between the Islamic Republic of Iran and other Muslim countries and Israel in terms of Islam. Yet Islamic tenets are the first element of the conflict that U.S. counterterror “experts” discount. Get the truth in The Palestinian Delusion. “Iran’s Khamenei Says Liberating Palestine Is ‘Islamic Duty,’” Agence […]

Iran’s top dog Khamenei releases poster calling for “Final Solution” for Israel

May 22, 2020 2:00 pm By Robert Spencer

The “Final Solution” was the Nazis’ way of referring to the genocide of the Jews. Will this lead the Left in the West to reconsider its hatred of Israel and support for the Islamic regime in Iran? Of course not. “Iran’s supreme leader releases anti-Israel ‘final solution’ poster,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, May 20, […]

Khamenei: Qur’an offers “solution” to “oppression, discrimination, wars, insecurity, and the suppression of values”

This is why, you see, Sharia states are all bastions of human rights and humane values. “Supreme Leader: Not fearing US result of acting according to Holy Qur’an,” Islamic Republic News Agency, April 25, 2020 (thanks to Henry): Tehran, April 25, IRNA – Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on […]

Popular Distrust of the Government In Iran Just Keeps Growing (Part 2)

May 5, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

While the numbers of coronavirus cases in Iran steadily increases, the government’s response has been grossly inadequate for the task at hand. And the public knows it, because it can find out online what China has done, what Italy has done, what South Korea has done. A Foreign Ministry spokesman, Seyed Abbas Mousavi, said Iran […]

Khamenei: Some Islamic states suffer “humiliation by the cruel powers” due to “their fear of the enemies of Islam”

“Today’s situation of certain Islamic governments and their humiliation by the cruel powers are the result of their fear of the enemies of Islam.” Once again Iran’s Supreme Leader frames the conflict between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the West in terms of Islam.

Khamenei: “Fighting over toilet paper is the logical outcome of the philosophy that governs Western civilization”

Apr 10, 2020 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

He is, of course, recommending Sharia as the alternative. And we can all see by how well-run and prosperous Sharia states are. But the advantage that Khamenei has is that when someone in the West points out that Sharia states are human rights basket cases and economic disasters, the one who notices is excoriated as […]

Defiance In Iran Over Mishandling of Coronavirus Pandemic

Apr 8, 2020 10:00 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

An astonishing display of defiance, as more than 100 Iranian academics sign a letter ferociously criticizing the regime and, above all, the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. In another sign of popular anger with the Iranian regime’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic within its own borders, more than 100 academics have signed a protest letter […]

America and The Enchantress Work Together to Undermine Iran!

Apr 4, 2020 9:00 am By Mateen Elass

One of the many problems with theocratic rule is that the top dog has the authority to make decisions for the whole state based on personal beliefs as long as those beliefs do not constitute heresy. In Islam, that allows for a wide latitude of dangerous rulings. The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Hosseini Khamenei, […]

Iran: “Truth Will Out”

Mar 24, 2020 11:00 am By Mateen Elass

“Truth will out.” So said Shylock’s servant, Lancelot Gobbo, in Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice. This is salutary to keep in mind when dealing with the lies and obfuscations of totalitarian regimes like China and Iran. The truth will come out, particularly concerning their incompetence in dealing with the spread of the coronavirus. The mullahs […]

Iran’s Supreme Leader vows jihad for Qassem Soleimani’s killing

Jan 4, 2020 5:00 pm By Vijeta Uniyal

Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has threatened the United States with ‘jihad’ after an American drone strike killed Qassem Soleimani, the chief of Iran’s elite Quds Force. “All Enemies should know that the jihad of resistance will continue with a doubled motivation, and a definite victory awaits the fighters in the holy war,” Khamenei said […]
