The U.S. Money Trail With Iran Is Worse Than You Think.


It all becomes even more egregious when inspected within the context of the Biden administration’s foreign and domestic policies.


Many of the articles surrounding the atrocities of the Hamas attacks this past weekend have referenced the recent $6 billion “deal,” in which the U.S. gave this money to Iran in exchange for five Americans. It already seemed like the worst trade in history.

But it’s more nefarious than simply unleashing $6 billion to Iran, a known terrorist state and the most existential threat to the free world. In reality, this one detail hyperlinked quickly in most articles is part of a larger spider web of hidden details.



In a recent article, senior adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and former National Security Council official Richard Goldberg traces the money trail. He confirms: It is so much worse than we think.

Goldberg lays out the numbers. The $6 billion you’ve seen in every (other) headline is only the money being transferred from our friends in Qatar. But this is separate from the $10 billion of assets being transferred from Iraq, which Goldberg says will continue on “a rolling basis.” Then there are the reports that Iran will be allowed to access $7 billion in fiat currency by trading drawing rights with the International Monetary Fund. He also says Japan is scheduled to transfer $3 billion to Iran.

Money is fungible,” and even the funds that have not yet been unfrozen are likely being treated as good credit in Iran’s ledger.

The revelations do not end there. U.S. officials have also quietly acknowledged that they’ve uncapped Iranian oil exports to China. These export levels, previously held around 775,000 barrels per day under Trump’s sanctions, are now estimated to be between 1.4 and 2.2 million barrels per day. Modest estimates value this relief at $25 billion annually.


The total? $50 billion.

It’s giving a thug a loaded machine gun and expecting him not to shoot the bullets.

Less than a decade ago, the spokesman of the Izzuddin Al-Qassam Brigades publicly thanked Iran for providing the “weapons, money, and other equipment” used in attacks. Although there has been no public “thank you” to Iran from Hamas in relation to the surprise attack on Israel this past weekend, it is clear that Iran did help plan the attack. It is unlikely they stopped there. But of course, the Biden administration is hesitant to confirm this — with Republicans already alleging the White House’s ties to the attacks, they would like to avoid any evidence that confirms what most of the world suspects.

This is peeling back what is only the first layer of deception in the Biden administration’s policies.



Top U.S. Officials Directly Supporting Iran’s Interests

We know Iran has already ejected international nuclear inspectors and are on their way to building a facility that is believed to be so deep underground that it would be impenetrable to any air strikes. Iran did not even have to stop their production of high-enriched uranium. They’re merely producing it at a slower rate. But the Biden administration chose to pick up the Obama era’s decision to unrestrain Iran based on a pinky promise.

Most recently, we learned that top officials were influencing the U.S. government in favor of Iranian nuclear power. A series of recently leaked emails have focused on Ariane Tabatabai, the chief of staff to the secretary of defense for special operations. Messages show her involvement with the Iran Experts Initiative (IEI), a direct Iranian government initiative to allegedly “improve the country’s image abroad.”

It would seem the mandate of improving the country’s “image” included influencing the U.S. government to give Tehran more flexibility in expanding uranium enrichment. That’s very different from the fruit and art exchanges you might have expected. But it does clarify the quiet suspension of the Biden administration’s lead Iran negotiator Robert Malley, which was previously unexplained. We’ve also come to learn of other aides who were directly corresponding with the Iranian government from their U.S. government posts, such as Ali Vaez and Dina Esfandiary.

Iran has never hidden its motivations. Even in the past, Iranian lawmakers proudly chanted “Death to America” and posted it on the news. They have always told us exactly who they are, and we still made a deal with the devil.

Meanwhile, Iran recently launched yet another imaging satellite, which is assumed to be part of their ballistic missile program. (Nuclear warheads don’t fly themselves — they are placed on ballistic missiles that carry them to their targets.) This goes against UN Security Council resolutions that are set to expire on Oct. 18.

Biden Admin Trades Energy Independence for Unstable Middle East



We’re stopping oil production in America while allowing Iran to export more, all under the facade of “green energy.” The administration has given the green light to increase oil production in the country that is the greatest existential threat to the free world. Meanwhile, Biden has choked American oil production with the fewest number of offshore oil and gas leases “in history.” This is after Biden canceled all remaining leases in Alaska. But since these leases are for 2024 to 2029, he’s pushed off Americans truly feeling this at the pump until, quite conveniently, after the election.

Squeezing the American wallet is far from the most dire consequence of this policy. Biden has drained the Strategic Petroleum Reserves (SPR) to multi-decade lows. Despite claims that they would be replenishing the reserves, the administration has not only yet to refill the reserves, they even pulled an offer at the end of this summer because of “market conditions.” Namely, oil is already too expensive, and we are drained of our most important backup resource.

In parallel, the Biden admin has been actively working to cut the legs off a Saudi-Israel deal. After all, why would we want to encourage stability in the Middle East?

Israel and Saudi Arabia have quietly been building diplomatic relations since the Abraham Accords, exchanging leaders and experts on various issues — and all without touching the Palestinian topic. In fact, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, in an interview with Fox News several weeks ago, refused to make demands from Israel on the Palestinian issue and simply stated his expectation was merely that Israel “improved the lives of Palestinians.” But now the Biden administration has thrown a wet blanket on the entire deal, insisting on numerous concessions to Palestinians.

Israel is likely to carry out the dirty work of an actual operation to stop Iranian nuclear aspirations. Saudi Arabia was there to get the Arab world in line for when they do. We can presume the only reason the U.S. was brought to the table was to serve as the brass backup.

The talks well underway came to an impasse as “close sources” began leaking frustrations from both the Saudi and Israeli sides. While these countries were working on a historic deal to prevent a nuclear Iran, Biden was playing hardball.

The surety and necessity of a large military response from Israel in Gaza has eliminated the chances of the Saudis being able to shake hands with Israel for a while. Iran will continue enriching uranium.

Again, this one specific money trail doesn’t even begin to cover the extent of insanity — it is only a small detail within the wider web of the Biden administration’s policies. To add an even more baffling layer to the mix, Iran is a country that beats and jails women if their hair shows too much from under their hijabs, and in which homosexual activity can lead to the death penalty. Biden’s submission to Iran is directly at odds with the “values” the political left claims to champion.

At this point, America has not simply left the world stage — it is funding terror.

The extent of this hidden money trail has yet to be fully realized. It isn’t only Gaza. It’s Lebanon. It’s Syria. It’s Iraq. It’s Afghanistan. It will be Paris and London. It is likely pouring over the U.S. southern border.

And it’s coming to a neighborhood near you.

Palestinians: Victims of Islamic Delusion

By Amil Imani

October 11th, 2023

It is said that it is a crime to remain silent in the face of evil, deceit, and deception. Robert Spencer, one of the foremost authorities of Islamic law, has succinctly spoken unwelcome and little-recognized truths in his new fact-based book: The Palestinian Delusion: The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process. Spencer has painstakingly separated fact from fiction.

The Israeli-Palestinian Arab conflict is one of the world’s longest and most tragic conflicts, without any end in sight. It should be noted that hundreds, if not thousands, of books and articles have been written about this willful tragedy of enormous historical and human misunderstanding and errors. Spencer has penned a book that is both timely and highly educational.

From Chapter One, “How Israel came to be,” to the book’s final chapter, “What is to be done?,” Spencer has backed up his reports with highly credible sources that leave no doubt in the mind of the reader about Israel’s right to exist. He answers solid questions like: Why don’t the Palestinians have their own country? Is it the fault of Israel? Of the Palestinians? Of both parties?

Spencer’s book connects the past events with the present. He is an Islamic scholar and understands better than anyone that the teaching of Islamic scripture is feeding this hatred of Jews in the hearts and minds of Palestinians. Spencer has masterfully marshaled the anti-Jewish Quranic commands in order to illustrate where this immense hatred toward the Jews came from:

Allah transforms disobedient Jews into apes and pigs (2:63–66, 5:59–60, 7:166). While the Qur’an says that Muslims are the “best of people” (3:110), the unbelievers are “like livestock” (7:179). “Indeed, the worst of living creatures in the sight of Allah are those who have disbelieved, and they will not believe” (8:55).

The Jews also “strive to do mischief on earth” — that is, fasaad, for which the punishment is specified in Qur’an 5:33: “they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land.”

Spencer brings to bear historical facts to expose the Palestinians’ gross misconceptions and misrepresentations regarding the “land of Zion” (2 Samuel 5:7–5:7) and those of misguided Europeans and the United Nations. He shows just how delusional these groups are.

Moreover, the Jews had a country of their own long before the currently invented Arab countries or even European countries existed. Israel did not seize a country known as “Palestine.” Spencer shows that when the Romans captured Judea and demolished the Jewish Temple in 70 A.D., and particularly after the Bar Kokhba revolt in 134 A.D., they forced the Jews out of their land. Furthermore, they renamed the land of Judea “Felestin,” or Palestine, which was thereafter the name of a region, not of a people or a nation.

Spencer briskly traces the post-biblical history of the Jews in the Holy Land, showing that while Jews were dispersed from their original land of Israel to other regions of the world beginning in the second century A.D., many Jews never left. The land known as Israel today always had a Jewish presence.

Unfortunately, the Jewish people have been used as scapegoats for many centuries by various non-Jews. Muslims, for their part, have adopted scapegoating as an article of faith. Muslims to this day blame the Jews for all kinds of heinous things, dating back to the time of Muhammad himself.

Truth be told, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not about land and will not be solved by the two-state solution. Spencer explains how the Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip proved that. Also, he shows how Prime Minister Ehud Barak’s “generous offer” of 2000 was refused, and again, Arabs rejected the 1947 United Nations partition plan. This conflict will never be solved by a treaty that allows Israel to exist as a Jewish state. It is about pushing the Jews into the sea.

Israel’s die-hard enemy, Islam, has been hard at work for over 1,400 years to complete the work of finishing off the Jews that the Prophet Muhammad himself had started. Waves of Muslim ill-wishers have, over the centuries, unleashed their unjustified wrath upon the Jews. Despite suffering huge losses at the hands of their enemies, the Jewish people remained resilient and outlived their tormentors.

The pogroms in Russia, the ghettoization in much of Europe, and even genocidal Nazism failed to wipe out the Jews. But as this book demonstrates, the return and rebirth of the Jews to and in the Promised Land in 1948 did not mark the end of their ordeal.

I highly recommend Spencer’s new book to anyone interested in learning more about this tragic and unnecessary conflict.

Why should she react? Do you really believe because you heard something reported about a war 6000 miles away that it's without question true, and you know exactly who the culprits are, and are ready to write a blank check for retribution? No wonder the elitists have such an easy time!

What a weak dodge...
 
What a weak dodge...
It's not a dodge. If you claim to be a moral person you can't just go around calling for genocide because of something you heard on the internet. What do you think she should have done?
