“Aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran would mean annihilation of Tel Aviv and spread of war into the US”

Good thing the Iranians are all moderates now. Imagine what they would be saying if they weren’t.

“Iran Threatens to Annihilate Israel if U.S. Attacks,” by Elad Benari, Israel National News, May 30, 2014:

A senior Iranian commander threatened on Friday that any American attack on Iran will result in “the annihilation of the Israeli regime”.

“They know that aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran would mean annihilation of Tel Aviv and spread of war into the United States,” the commander, Massoud Jazayeri, was quoted by the Fars news agency as having said.

His remarks came after U.S. President Barack Obama said on Wednesday that there is an opportunity to resolve disputes over Iran’s nuclear energy program but reiterated that Washington reserves “all options” against Iran, alluding to military action.

Jazayeri described Obama’s remarks as “childish dreams which may not come true”.

“Had the U.S. and its allies the capability to attack Iran they would not hesitate a moment to carry out their barbaric act; and, of course, it is surprising that Obama is not embarrassed to rehash his empty words,” he said.

The Iranian commander said that the era of global hegemony has ended, adding that the “empire of money and weapons” will soon collapse.

Over the years, Iran has threatened Israel and the United States on more than one occasion.

In March, a senior commander in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said that Iran is keeping its finger on the trigger and is ready to destroy Israel.

The commander, Brigadier General Hossein Salami, said that Iranian military commanders are prepared to attack and destroy “the Zionist regime of Israel” as soon as they receive such an order.

Previously, Salami said that Iran “could minimize the breathing room of the U.S. and the West until the Zionist regime would no longer have room to breathe.”

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has in the past threatened to “annihilate” the Israeli cities of Tel Aviv and Haifa.

In February, the official site of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards warned the U.S. that its warships in the Persian Gulf were in range of their Karrar combat drones, as well as their Kowsar anti-ship missiles, both domestically produced.

Several weeks ago, the commander of the Iranian Navy stated that his forces were trained to destroy U.S. warships.

Traitor “Abdullah” Bowe Bergdahl wrote he was “ashamed to be American” before he went AWOL

Obama’s Taliban trade – one jihadi for five jihadists. Treason.

Bowe “Abdullah” Bergdahl, U.S. soldier held by Taliban, was “ashamed to be American,” emails show,” CBS News, June 8, 2012

AP) WASHINGTON – Emails an American soldier reportedly sent to his parents before he was captured by the Taliban three years ago suggest he was disillusioned and considering deserting.

Bowe Bergdahl told his parents he was “ashamed to even be American” and was disgusted with the U.S. mission in Afghanistan and with the Army, according to emails quoted in Rolling Stone magazine.

He sounds like Michelle Obama.

What the media won’t tell you about the Army deserter/traitor Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, for whom we just traded 5 Taliban terrorists from Gitmo

Several American soldiers got killed looking for this POS, a deserter who joined up with the Taliban voluntarily. Forwarded from the secret Special Forces unauthorized back channel frequency:

‘WANTED TO MEET WITH THE TALIBAN’: PLATOONMATE WHO DISCOVERED BERGDAHL MISSING PAINTS PORTRAIT OF LONG-PREMEDITATED DESERTION BY TRAITOR WHOSE ACTIONS KILLED U.S. TROOPS

Sean Linnane  (h/t whuptdue) “We were at OP Mest, Paktika Province, Afghanistan. It was a small outpost where B Co 1-501st INF (Airbone) ran operations out of, just an Infantry platoon and ANA counterparts there. 

 

The place was an Afghan graveyard. Bergdahl had been acting a little strange, telling people he wanted to “walk the earth” and kept a little journal talking about how he was meant for better things. No one thought anything about it. He was a little “out there”.

 

Next morning he’s gone. We search everywhere, and can’t find him. He left his weapon, his kit, and other sensitive items. He only took some water, a compass and a knife. We find some afghan kids shortly after who saw an american walking north asking about where the taliban are. 

 

We get hits on our voice intercepter that Taliban has him, and we were close. We come to realize that the kid deserted his post, snuck out of camp and sought out Taliban… to join them. We were in a defensive position at OP Mest, where your focus is to keep people out. He knew where the blind spots were to slip out and that’s what he did. 

 

It was supposed to be a 4-day mission but turned into several months of active searching. Everyone was spun up to find this guy. 

 

News outlets all over the country were putting out false information. It was hard to see, especially when we knew the truth about what happened and we lost good men trying to find him. 

 

PFC Matthew Michael Martinek, Staff Sgt. Kurt Robert Curtiss, SSG Clayton Bowen, PFC Morris Walker, SSG Michael Murphrey, 2LT Darryn Andrews, were all KIA from our unit who died looking for Bergdahl. Many others from various units were wounded or killed while actively looking for Bergdahl. 

 

Fighting Increased. IEDs and enemy ambushes increased. The Taliban knew that we were looking for him in high numbers and our movements were predictable. Because of Bergdahl, more men were out in danger, and more attacks on friendly camps and positions were conducted while we were out looking for him. His actions impacted the region more than anyone wants to admit. 

 

There is also no way to know what he told the Taliban: Our movements, locations, tactics, weak points on vehicles and other things for the enemy to exploit are just a few possibilities. The Government knows full well that he deserted. It looks bad and is a good propaganda piece for the Taliban. 

 

They refuse to acknowledge it. Hell they even promoted him to Sergeant which makes me sick. I feel for his family who only want their son/brother back. They don’t know the truth, or refuse to acknowledge it as well. What he did affected his family and his whole town back home, who don’t know the truth. 

 

Either way what matters is that good men died because of him. He has been lying on all those Taliban videos about everything since his “capture”. If he ever returns, he should be tried under the UCMJ for being a deserter and judged for what he did. Bergdahl is not a hero, he is not a soldier or an Infantryman. He failed his brothers. Now, sons and daughters are growing up without their fathers who died for him and he will have to face that truth someday.”

Bowe's Release: The Truth Exposed...Part 1 of 4 

By: Diane Sori

 

“The Qatari government has given us assurances that it will put in place measures to protect our national security.” 

- Barack HUSSEIN Obama at Saturday's news conference where he announced the release of Bowe Bergdahl

Our past presidents have always stood strong in saying that America does NOT negotiate with terrorists...but now it seems that America under this president does indeed negotiate with terrorists for this past Saturday Bowe Bergdahl's long-hoped for release from five years of captivity at the hands of the Taliban was secured by doing just that.

Bowe's release (to American Special Operations forces inside Afghanistan near the Pakistan border) was attained in exchange for five GITMO detainees who will now be free to rejoin their comrades in the killing of Americans...five enemy combatants exchanged for this one American who will now come home NOT only to parents who love and cherish him, but to a nation who while celebrating his release questions NOT only the circumstances of that release, but who questions the circumstances of his very capture.

And Bowe also comes home to a question of timing for was his release timed as a PR stunt by this administration's media machine to divert attention away from the scandals Barack HUSSEIN Obama is awash in...timed for yet another photo-op and self-gratifying pat on the back...timed to make Obama the hero in Bowe's release in the same vein that he made himself the hero in the 'supposed' take down of Osama bin-Laden.

But that is one question I think we all know the answer to.

And of course upon hearing of Bowe's release Obama, as if right on cue, was quick to arrange a televised photo-op with Bowe's parents where he said America “leaves no man behind,” yet he calculatingly forgets the four he did leave behind...the four he and he alone sentenced to die in a hell-hole called Benghazi.

And Bowe's story in and of itself is one of contradictions as Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was NOT captured on the battlefield, thus some are claiming he left base camp on June 30, 2009 of his own free will after finishing a guard shift at the combat outpost in Afghanistan's Paktika province where he was stationed, then turning up with the Taliban a short time later. Others say he just went for a walk near the base camp in a supposed secure area but was captured during that walk. The answer to that will NOT be known until he is debriefed...and know that Bowe will be questioned like few before him have been.

One scenario is that if Bowe had voluntarily went to the Taliban they would have used his desertion in a propaganda campaign bar none...and they did NOT because they could NOT. And if one studies the few pictures released of Bowe over these five long years one can clearly see his deteriorating physical condition, and that would NOT be the case if Bowe had become one of the Taliban's own.

The other scenario...and I hope this is NOT true...is that Bowe went AWOL, converted to islam and now according to some reports...including that of a Taliban deputy district commander...is alleged to have been teaching the Taliban fighters bomb-making skills.

But neither scenario changes the fact that Bowe's release was secured by negotiating with terrorists...terrorists who have long demanded that those particular five be released. And now by meeting the enemy's demands, and doing so by overriding the fact that Congress needed to be notified beforehand...which they were NOT...Barack HUSSEIN Obama has placed a bulls-eye on the back of every American troop still left in the Afghan war theater...as in capture one of ours and we'll trade them for at least five of yours...and that is one place where this president should NEVER have gone.

Now sending the Taliban an unmistakable message that we will do anything to leave the nightmare of Afghanistan behind, Barack HUSSEIN Obama has put a payable price on our leaving, and that price now dishonors all those brave American warriors who NEVER were given the chance to come home. And it also puts a bulls-eye on any and all Afghani's who aided Americans in their quest to free Afghanistan from the hands of the very Taliban Obama now freely negotiated with.

Remember too that those five released from GITMO were NOT just ordinary Taliban fighters, as two of them were senior militant commanders connected to altercations that killed both American and allied troops. And one of those released is Mohammad Nabi Omari, a man with strong ties to al-Qaeda and the Haqqani network (one of Afghanistan’s most experienced insurgent groups with ties to the Pakastani security establishment and one of the deadliest threats to U.S. troops during the war). And two others released, Mullah Norullah Noori and Mullah Mohammad Fazl, have been directly tied to the murders of thousands of Afghani Shiites. But thanks to this deal, and after spending just a year in Qatar under the most questionable of security restrictions, including a mere one-year travel ban, they will be free to do what the Taliban do best...kill any and all who oppose them.

A great trade this was NOT when the ramifications could very well come back to haunt... ramifications possibly fueled on because Bowe's dad, appearing in the Rose Garden with Obama, said in Arabic a phrase routinely used by muslims in praise of allah, "بسم الله، الرحمان، الرحيم،"... translation: “In the name of allah, the most gracious, the most merciful”...before speaking about his son's release.

Why speak in Arabic...why address the American people in Arabic when one's prisoner son was just released by those speaking Arabic...why...we need to know why...we demand to know why.

But when all is said and done, Bowe is finally free, but at a terrible price that comes complete with many mixed emotions...a price whose payment America will be making to the enemy for years to come for the Taliban have scored a propaganda victory as Barack HUSSEIN Obama bent to their will...or did he actually bend to the will of his own. And I dare NOT think of how our troops must feel knowing that five of the enemy...an enemy who killed so many of their brothers and sisters in arms...have now been released by their Commander-in-Chief to kill more of them yet again.

So unless new information comes to light proving otherwise...and it very well might...we should revel in Bowe's release as one once left behind is now finally coming home. 

In Part 2, running tomorrow, my good friend and RIGHT SIDE RADIO partner, Craig Andresen, goes into detail about Obama's overriding Congress to secure Bowe's release.
