Another interesting piece by two-time former Nigerian minister, Femi Fani-Kayode. Read below...
''Israel will no longer exist in 25 years''- Grand Ayatollah Sayyed Ali
Hosseini Khamenei , the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Prince of Persia is a spirit-being that the Holy Bible describes as a
''principality’’. He rules over the geographical space that was once
known as Persia but that is now known as Iran.
Judging from the words of Ayatollah Khamenei I have little doubt that he
is firmly under the grip of this spirit-being.
When he speaks, it is not him that is speaking but rather it is the
Prince of Persia that is speaking through him. This contribution is
about the folly of trusting such a man and the manifest danger of
entering into a nuclear arms deal with him.
Permit me to begin with an aside. One of the consequences of the war in
Syria and Iraq is the massive inflow of refugees from the Middle East
into Europe. It is sad to see millions of people fleeing their homeland
and walking half way across the world to escape the savagery of war.
TThe question that arises is this: why have Saudi Arabia and the other
Arab Gulf states refused to assist their Muslim and Arab brothers and
take them in? Mr. Paul Joseph Watson raised some pertinent points in a
contribution to Global Research. He wrote:
‘’While European countries are being lectured about their failure to
take in enough refugees, Saudi Arabia – which has taken in precisely
zero migrants has 100,000 air conditioned tents that can house over 3
million people sitting empty. The sprawling network of high quality
tents are located in the city of Mina, spreading across a 20 square km
valley, and are only used for 5 days of the year by Hajj pilgrims.
The tents could provide shelter for almost all of the 4 million Syrian
refugees that have been displaced by the country’s civil war. While it
refuses to take in any more refugees, Saudi Arabia has offered to build
200 mosques for the 500,000 migrants a year expected to pour into
Germany. While Europe is being burdened by potentially millions of
people who don’t share the same culture or religion as the host
population, Gulf Arab states refuse to pull their weight, resolving only
to throw money at the problem’’.
Mr. Watsons’ observations are legitimate.
I support the assertion that the west should take in as many Arab
refugees as possible on humanitarian grounds. However there must be a
moment of pause whilst we consider the following questions.
Is it possible that some of those that have fled to Europe are actually
ISIS members who are using this opportunity to plant themselves in the
very heart of western civilization where they can wreak havoc? Is there
any truth in the Russian narrative that the massive exodus of Arab
refugees into Europe today is nothing short of a "Trojan horse"
invasion?
Again is it conceivable that the refusal of the Saudis to receive any of
the refugees is borne out of the fact that the quickest way to change
the racial and religious identity of Europe and to bring greater Arab
and Islamic influence to bear on western culture and civilization is the
mass migration of millions of Muslim refugees into Europe?
This suspicion is reinforced by the fact that instead of taking in the
refugees the Saudi authorities have instead offered to build 200 mosques
in Germany in order to cater for the migrants that seek refuge there.
Do those voices in Europe that have called for caution in receiving the
refugees have a point? That remains to be seen. This brings us to the
very heart of this contribution and begs for an answer to the following
question.
If such an influx of refugees into Europe has been triggered off by what
is essentially a Middle Eastern proxy war between the U.S.A and Saudi
Arabia on the one hand and Russia and Iran on the other, can one
possibly imagine the sheer carnage and massive influx that a war between
Iran and Israel would cause?
What is happening today would be child's play when one considers that
scenario. Yet those that support the Iran nuclear arms deal fail to
appreciate the fact that strengthening Iran by lifting sanctions and
putting hundreds of billions of dollars in the Iranian governments’
coffers takes us one step closer to such a conflict.
Until Iran renounces its intention of spreading global jihad and until
the clerics that rule that country stop their provocative rhetoric
towards Israel there can never be peace.
The only language that terror understands is an equal dose of terror.
The policy of appeasement which the Iran nuclear deal represents is the
worst thing that could have happened and those that have put it in place
will have cause to deeply regret it.
The greatest mistake that President Obama has made is to trust Iran.
This is a country whose leaders have continuously referred to America as
the ‘’great Satan’’ and Israel as the ‘’little Satan’’.
This is a country whose Supreme Leader opens political rallies by
chanting ‘’death to America’’.
This is a country whose former President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said that
Israel would be ‘’wiped off the face of the earth’’.
This is a country whose leaders believe in the coming of the great
muslim ''Mahdi''- the so-called "Guided One" whose coming, according to
shia eschatology and prophecy, "will be heralded by the raising of a
black flag in Kurasan".
This is a country whose leaders fully espouse the concept of global
jihad and whose constitution specifically calls for the destruction of
America and Israel.
By this deal President Obama has given the Iranian government immense
power and a new lease of life. This is a government that is perverse in
all its ways and that presides over the affairs of a vicious and
unrelenting theocratic state. This is a government that is led by a
handful of misguided religious fanatics whose objective is to spread
radical Islam throughout the world.
This is a government that has taken away the basic freedoms of its' own
people and held them in bondage for the last 36 years. This is a
government that exports blood, death and terror by funding terrorist
organizations such as Hezbollah, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the Mehdi Army
and many others throughout the world.
Given all this can anyone legitimately dispute the words of the former
Foreign Minister of Israel, Mr. Avigdor Lieberman, who described the
nuclear deal as ''a surrender to terror''? On his part the Defence
Minister of Israel, Mr. Moshe Yaalon, said it is a deal that was built
on Iran's ''lies and deceit''. He went further by describing the
agreement as ''a tragedy for all who aspire for regional stability and
who fear a nuclear Iran''. Not one to be left out of the fray, the Prime
Minister of Israel, Mr. Binyamin Netanyahu, called the deal a "historic
mistake".
Most instructive of all was the contribution of Israel's Education
Minister, Mr. Naftali Bennet, who warned that: ''The history books have
been re-written again today and this period will be deemed particularly
grave and dangerous''. He said, ''western citizens who get up for
another day at work or school are not aware of the fact that about half a
trillion dollars has been transferred to the hands of a terrorist
superpower, the most dangerous country in the world, who has promised
the destruction of nations and peoples.
Today it may be us, tomorrow it may reach every country in the form of
suitcase bombs in London or New York. Israel has done everything
possible to warn of danger and in the end it will follow its own
interest and will do whatever it takes to defend itself'' (See Peter
Beaumonts’ article in the UK's, Guardian Newspaper, 14th July 2015).
These men have spoken nothing but the truth and the world would do well
to listen. Sadly that does not appear to be happening because the
American government has been sold a dummy and they have taken the full
plunge.
I have always viewed Obama's policies in the Middle East and North
Africa with suspicion.
In my view he is the greatest friend that the radical jihadists have
ever had in the White House and he has done more for their cause than
any other American President.
His support for the Iran nuclear deal confirms this.
Permit me to conclude this contribution with a word to Grand Ayatollah
Sayyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic
of Iran and the man who said that Israel will ''no longer exist’’ in 25
years: hell will freeze over before Israel ever goes down.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu responded to him in an equally
eloquent manner by saying, "anyone who attacks the State of Israel will
pay with his life".
A word is enough for the wise. The day that Iran attacks Israel will be
the day that Iran would have signed its own death warrant. They will be
crushed beyond recognition and redemption.
