A United States Citizen concerned about his Country. A man who is ready to party but is sadly without a Party. Crusader for justice. Nom de guerre.
🚨 The man who allegedly digitally signed the MoU with @POTUS and @VP just went on Iranian state TV and explained why he is willing to “deal with” the United States, which he describes as “the killers of our martyred leader.” The same agreement reportedly states that "immediately upon signing," the United States would "issue Treasury exemptions for Iranian crude oil exports, petrochemicals, banking transactions, insurance, transportation, and related services." (point #10) In other words, immediate economic relief. Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf who digitally signed this agreement explained: “We also know that we are dealing with the killers of our martyred leader.” He then describes what true revenge means: “If we seek justice, and God willing we do, and if all these people seek justice for our Imam, then justice for our Imam lies in the liberation of Jerusalem (Quds).” “A hundred Netanyahus are not worth the shoelace of our leader. We must stand with this sense of honor, this perspective, and this ideal, and carry out this mission.” ⚠️ Read that carefully. He acknowledges he is dealing with the people he blames for killing his leader. He then explains that true justice for his Imam lies in the “liberation of Jerusalem” and says that mission must be carried out. This is the same man that has spent decades calling for the destruction of Israel, funding anti Israeli terrorist groups, and leading chants of “D3ath to Israel and to America.” They’re not hiding. They’re explaining it on state television. Why is @POTUS ignoring this? How could he call this man who wants to destroy Israel "very rational" and "not radicalized"? Worse... how could he sign off on immediate economic benefits to a regime with this purpose?! Please tell me what I am missing. 📺 Full translated remarks from the video obtained by @clashreport: (translated by Iranian friend who speaks excellent Farsi) "We also know that we are dealing with the killers of our martyred leader. They are the killers of Martyr Soleimani and the killers of our children here. I was discussing this with one of our friends. Of course, we must seek revenge and pursue justice for the blood that has been shed. But what does that truly mean? For example, if it were the month of Muharram and Shimr had martyred Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), and people criticized him, punished him, or even killed him in retaliation, would that alone constitute avenging Imam Hussein? The true avenging of Imam Hussein is the coming of Imam Mahdi and the establishment of a just government. The pursuit of that justice continues until that day. If we seek justice, and God willing we do, and if all these people seek justice for our Imam, then justice for our Imam lies in the liberation of Jerusalem (Quds). A hundred Netanyahus are not worth the shoelace of our leader. We must stand with this sense of honor, this perspective, and this ideal, and carry out this mission. The true justice for our beloved martyred leader is this: they have driven our Shiite Muslims out of southern Lebanon, people who have lived there since the earliest days of Islamic history. They were expelled from their own land. Justice for our martyred Imam means returning them to their rightful homes. Those are the people who fought for Iran. I do not wish to elaborate further on certain points, but consider those who used to say, “Neither Gaza nor Lebanon.” Know that Lebanon gave four thousand martyrs for the Islamic Republic of Iran. That is more than the total number of martyrs we lost in the entire war here. They fought for 104 days, while we fought for only 38 days."
Time for a change in strategy. We should consider slow walking the enemy, building up our munitions, our oil reserves, get the price of gasoline down, get through the midterms, then knock them out. Instead of rushing to a deal, building up their oil industry, transferring billions to them, etc .
According to @BarakRavid, citing two senior U.S. officials, the U.S.-Iran MOU was remotely signed today and is now in effect. What this means for right now: - The Strait of Hormuz will begin to be fully reopened, with Iran aiding in mine clearance and obstacle clearance operations. - Waivers will be provided for Iranian oil related sanctions. - Cessation of all hostilities, including Israeli operations in Southern Lebanon. More facets of the deal, most importantly, Iran’s nuclear program, will be discussed and finalized over the course of the 60-day negotiations period.
Gowdy: I read this MOU about 48 hours ago and I didn't believe it. I thought somebody was spoofing me when I saw it.
