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

The Decline and Fall of the Iranian Empire

New in PJ Media:

The killing of Hassan Nasrallah and the entire Hizballah high command, followed almost immediately by the killing of Nasrallah’s designated successor Hassan Khalil Yassin, could mean the end of Hizballah as a force to be reckoned with in Lebanon. Nasrallah’s death also strikes a serious blow to the Islamic Republic of Iran’s decades-long effort to gain hegemony over the entire Middle East.

Back in 2015, Iran’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, explained that once Israel is destroyed, “the West’s hegemony and threats will be discredited” and “the hegemony of Iran will be promoted.” Iran had been working for years to promote that hegemony through a series of allies, clients, and proxies across the Middle East, Hizballah being the chief among them.

In fact, the assembly of the “Shi’ite crescent” began in Lebanon. As The Complete Infidel’s Guide to Iran explains, Hizballah (“Party of Allah”) rose to prominence during the Lebanese civil war of the early 1980s. Hizballah was an Iranian proxy from its inception, as the U.S. Supreme Court recognized when it ruled that Iran was liable for payments to the families of the victims of Hizballah’s 1983 bombing of the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut, in which 241 Americans were killed. Indeed, Hizballah began at a meeting in Tehran between the Ayatollah Khomeini and a delegation of Lebanese Shi’ites, including Hassan Nasrallah.

At this meeting, Khomeini gave his approval to the creation of Hizballah as a competitor to the dominant Lebanese Shi’ite group, the Amal Movement, whose leader, Musa Sadr, opposed the idea of clerical rule that was the guiding principle of the Islamic Republic. Khomeini gave Shiekholislam Seyyed Ali Khamenei, who would later succeed him as Iran’s Supreme Leader, the task of supervising the establishment of Hizballah. According to Nasrallah, Iran “offered Lebanon everything in its power: money, training, and advice.”

In a February 1985 “Open Letter,” Hizballah associated itself with Iran’s Islamic Revolution: “We are the sons of the umma (Muslim community)—the Party of God (Hizb Allah) the vanguard of which was made victorious by God in Iran. There the vanguard succeeded to lay down the bases of a Muslim state which plays a central role in the world.” The letter maintained that Hizballah’s political program was simply an outgrowth of its commitment to Islam: “As for our culture, it is based on the Holy Koran, the Sunna and the legal rulings of the faqih [an Islamic jurist; in this case, Khomeini] who is our source of imitation (marja’al-taqlid). Our culture is crystal clear. It is not complicated and is accessible to all.”

There is more. Read the rest here.

Comments

  1. So now, for all practical purposes, Hizbullah is an Iranian militia, since they’ve been all but wiped out of Lebanon

    Is Iraq’s Kataeb Hizbullah associated w/ Nasrallah’s Hizbullah?

  2. “The vanguard of which was made victorious by God” – looks like their god is having a siesta

  3. I watched on X a procession of Hezbollah members that were grieving the death of Hassan Nasrallah. They were set upon and savaged by the lebanese. I don’t know if any of them were killed but they literally got the boots put to them.

  4. It was Hezbollah that indirectly caused the Port of Beirut explosion. Hezbollah had a vague idea of using the nitrates for car bombs so they prevented its removal. It could have been distributed to Lebanese Farmers. Crooked Lebanese port officials on the take went along with it.

  5. Some ministry friends working out of the Middle East said they believed the Israelis would eventually take out the leadership of Iran, and basically render it useless. They were working with the IDF and underground church in Iran, and still are. This will usher in an age of “peace” for a few years. There will be a “peace-keeping force” arise in the Middle east and will agree to the right of Israel to have the land they were given, the Abrahamic Covenant. Israel will feel secure for the first time. However, Bible prophecy clearly says that after this will arise a conglomerate of nations who will attack Israel when they least expect it. Many think this was fulfilled in 70 AD. However, “the time of trouble for the whole world, worse than it has ever been or ever will be” according to Jesus, will follow this, as the Islamic “peacekeepers” will have the secret plot to unite and surround Israel. Prophecies name the nations that will do this, the place names of the those nations geographically. Basically North Africa, Persia (Iran), Iraq, Turkey (Ancient Asia Minor which was Assyrian empire in the day).

    Anyway, it all is unfolding? Seems like it.

    Here is a video from Daniel Shayeshtah, one of the founders of Hizbollah. It didn’t start in Lebanon, it started with Iranians, like Daniel. Then the Ayatollah basically killed all the leaders of this revolutionary army, Daniel was the only one of the original team who survives to tell the tale. He states plainly that the capture of Israel and overcoming it was the original goal, to serve as an example to the Muslims all over the world, to rise up and “start where you are” to take over the world. It is really quite an amazing story, how he also happened to leave Iran. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc9yhzxSj3M

    Another Israeli joke? Houthi head of propaganda, Mohammed Abdusalam, dies along with Iranian and Houthi military personnel in a helicopter crash piloted by, “Eli Kopter”. Supposedly the helicopter was flying from Yemen to Tehran a distance of over 1300 miles. Who flies 1300 miles in a helicopter?

    When Iran’s Raisi died in a helicopter crash this year in May, Israelis also dubbed the pilot as “Eli Kopter”.

    The Ayatollah is currently in hiding, thinking nobody knows his location but we can be certain that, “Eli Kopter”, knows.

  7. That Islamic tyrannical regime of Iran is and always was since its very beginning a horrendous violator of human rights, even the most basic human rights of the Iranian people. Since those tyrants in power in Iran care nothing ,at all , for the humans rights as in lives and safety of the people of Iran , how much less do they care ,if even possible, about the lives and safely of the people of other countries.

    Furthermore, that Islamic tyranny of Iran is based in the foundation of false and empty promises. As well as lying words of Ayatollah Khomeini After the fiendish Muslim clerics obtained total power in Iran they showed their true colors by having their Islamic state police who are called the “Revolutionary Guards truest the people on Iran in many heinously brutal and ruthless ways. As, for example, their brutal, callous misogyny against both girls and women. This thesis statement is explained, in some detail, by the following.

    , That tyrannical Islamic regime in Iran that so falsely and inappropriately has the word “republic” in its title. It should be made known that this called the “Iranian Revolution” turned out to be a hoax. Ayatollah Khomeini before achieving power in Iran in his lying and deceptions presented himself to the Iranian people as if he was someone who would be in power would give freedom to the people of Iran with any tyranny. The reality turned out to be just the opposite.

    As explained by a former Muslim as well as a man who took part in this Islamic “revolution “ ,who is now a Christian informs the reader of his book that “Prior to the Revolution no one ever imagined that other political parties would be suppressed under the rule of Ayatollah Khomeini. He had promised that all groups would have freedom to run their own campaigns after the Revolution. He even stated that governing system would be based on the decision of the people via a referendum. He never spoke of a system that would be governed by Islam. He even made clear that mullahs would not take part in any political activities, and that they would only be allowed to teach spirituality… Immediately after the Revolution, mullahs rushed into government offices to occupy the most important political l positions, making it difficult for the interim secular government to function … The mullah’s occupation of position was exactly the opposite to what the Ayatollah Khomeini had promised before the Revolution.”. [1]

    In other words, the insincere, disingenuous and outright lying Ayatollah Khomeini made many bogus promise he really had no intention of keeping. His lying deception worked, for he achieved great power in Iran.

    Furthermore, Of the many heinously evils outcomes of that Islamic “revolution” is the extremely cruel, brutal and demonic misogyny of this hideous Islamic regime. Not only against women but even young girls.

    As explained by a former Iranian Revolutionary Guard member who defected to the West and how now lives in America his book also informs the reader about the malicious and murderous affront girls in Iran’s Evin prison which reads that those in power ,the “paraded teenage girls in front in front of me as they led them to their deaths. These girls were barely out of their childhood, barely old enough to think of themselves, much less form thoughts against the state. They knew nothing about the machinations of politics. They were innocent in every sense of the word and certainty innocent of trumped –up charges that led to their imprisonment. Yet they suffered fates too brutal for even the most vicious criminal. ..Their few remaining moments of life had been filled with the level of abuse that few can imagine”

    The author further states “They tortured and killed young girls, in God’s name and before their execution they raped them because they believed that if a girl dies virgin, she will go to heaven, and they wanted to deny them this reward.” [2]

    This is as malice -filled cruel brutal oppressive malicious and murderous Islamic regime of Iran, since it took power in Iran it thrives on installing fear on the Iranian people.

    First, the Bible reads, “All the days of the oppressed are wretched.” Proverbs 15:15. [N.I.V.]

    Second, Benjamin Franklin had printed a very true statement in his periodical Poor Richard’s Almanac which may apply to that horrendous tyrannical regime of Iran. It’s “Those who are feared are also hated.”

    One important this to understand that since that brutal .cruel oppressive and murderous Islamic regime of Iran was built on a bedrock of false and empty and unkempt promises its footing is based on a foundation of sand, therefore the collapse of that hostile horrific and horrendous Islamic tyranny of Iran should be inevitable.

  8. That horrendously brutal, cruel oppressive malicious and murderous Islamic regime of Iran, denies the Iranian, people their basic natural human rights.

    Therefore, the Iranian people are right and righteous by engaging in bitter and strong protests against those cruel malicious and murderous tyrants in power of that cruel and oppressive Sharia based dictatorship of that Islamic regime of Iran.

    In other words, those vicious despots of that horrendously horrific Islamic regime have provoked the people excessively too far.

    In addition, some of the people who trapped in and forced to exist in the Islamic dictatorship of Iran might not know about the intellect philosopher John Locke, but his ideas do apply to them. For Mr. Locke taught that any good government has the duty to ensure the security and safety of its citizens. Yet when a tyranny is the people in the tyrannical government do have every natural and ethical right to overthrow that terrible and oppressive tyranny/ government.

  9. About that Sharia based tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran which has the official title of “The Islamic Republic of Iran” and also about the chief and head Imam, Ayatollah Khomeini, who had a strong hand in establishing this so called “Republic “

    The very actual essence of that Islamic tyranny, Ayatollah Khomeini, had made in known that “The Islamic Republic of Iran would be Islamic and nothing but .He declared ‘What the nation wants is an Islamic Republic. Not just a Republic, not a democratic Republic, not a democratic Islamic Republic. Do not use the word “democratic” to describe it. That is the Western style. ‘” [1]

    Furthermore, that cruel and tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran regime has severely limited to an extreme much knowledge and wisdom from the outside world. This is because that fiendish and murderous ayatollahs and mullahs in power in Iran are very much afraid the Iranian people might discover different ideas. As the idea’s and philosophy of John Locke

    For example, Locke views the people living under any genuine government are people retaining their individual rights after a government has been established to protect human rights. . In other words, the securing of their rights – the protection of the life, liberty and property of all – is the sole legitimate purpose of government. If a government begins to abuse those rights it then becomes tyrannical and the governed [the people] retain the right to overthrow that government and replace it with one that does its job properly.

    So that heinous”mullah regime” of Iran, greatly fears such ideas and keeps the people under his hideous control of his tyranny in and the darkness of much limited information.

    [1]`THE HISTORY OF JIHAD by Robert Spencer, page 318.

  10. The many arrest and imprisonment of people , repeatedly, who had peacefully protested that “mullah tyranny” of Iran only further exposes the weak ,fearful and intolerant nature of those in power in the oppressive and brutal “mullah regime “ of Iran.

    As a former Muslim revealed an important reality when he wrote “The Islamic republic of Iran exists and operates as what every fundamentalist dreams of, an Islamic state ruled by sharia …” He further exposes that “What followed its establishment was the inevitable consequence and inexorable logic of its Islamic premise; state terrorism, a merciless tyranny.” [1]

    Furthermore, in the book entitled HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD, by William Wagner on page 208 the reader is informed that “The creation of the Islamic republic in Iran has had the effect that many from that country have become disillusioned with Islam and are looking to leave Iran. ” This is a point worth pondering.

    [1] THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM by Ibn Warraq page 347.

  11. Way before that justified and righteous revolt started in the year 2022 by the Iranian people against that oppressive and brutally murderous tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran knowledge of just how horrendously cruel vicious and horrifically evil that “mullah tyranny” of Iran actually was and still is.

    For example, back in time with President Trump and his administration on the date of 4/22/19 the US Secretary of State ,Michael Pompeo spoke of that brutal and oppressive tyranny which oppresses the people of Iran and said “We will not appease their oppressors as that last administration did .” Pompeo then stated “We will support the Iranian people.”

    As far back as on Tuesday, 2/5/ 19 in his second State on the Union a speech President Trump ,wisely, spoke of that Islamic tyranny of Iran as well as those in total power and complete of that tyrannical rogue state. For the President declared “It is a radical regime, they do bad, bad things.”

    Moreover, an author of an article on a Freedom Site, Dariush Afshar, had explained the reality of the situation well when he wrote that the “People of Iran who fight for freedom in Iran and abroad put a huge gap and draw a prominent line between Iran and the Islamic regime in Tehran.”

    This is sadly and tragically the terrible reality of this Islamic tyrannical regime of Iran. This Islamic tyranny has been well nicknamed “the mullahs regime” in which them mullahs and ayatollahs as well as other fiendish and fanatical Muslims in power have a strong and awful control of the Islamic regime of Iran and through their band of Islamic state “police” , who are called the “Revolutionary Guards “come down hard human rights of the Iranian people .

    Therefore, the Iranian people who are trapped and forced to exist in this Islamic tyranny live in terrible fear of the mullahs and others in power in Iran. This is a tragic and sad reminder of the wisdom that was printed in the periodical of Benjamin Franklin which is entitled POOR RICHARDS’ ALMANAC that reads “Those who are feared are also hated.”

    It also should be added, to this that the actual word “Republic” has on origin the Latin meaning “Of the people” With the mullahs ayatollahs in so much power and even influencing the parliament of this Islamic regime is tyranny is hardly a real republic .Furthermore the ruthless gang of thugs who are the stooges of those Muslim clerics, called the “Revolutionary Guards,” those Islamic State “police” come down hard on the human rights and freedoms of the Iranian people. Therefore the people do have the right to overthrow a tyranny. This reality had even been expressed and described by men of great intelligence .For example, the philosopher .John Locke. This is wisdom that mullahs and other villains in power in that Islamic tyranny don’t want the Iranian people to know about or understand.

  12. The entire foundation of that tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran ,with its official title of ”The Islamic Republic of Iran” might be collapsing since it’s entirely based on the Qur’ an which Islamic and its Sharia .

    Likewise and therefore a very important question needs to be raised , which is “Is the Qu ran truly Divine or is it a hoax ?

    The answer to that question had been revealed on pages 145 through 157 in THE ISLAMIC INVASION by Robert Morey in which he wrote a section on the Qu‘ran with its self-contradictions. Just two of the many he cited are the following “The Qu’ran differs on whether a day is a thousand years or fifty thousand years in God’s sight’ and “Who was first to believe? Abraham or Moses [Sura 6:14 versus 7:143]? The above is inconsistent and illogical. Further, Morey wrote about “The fact that Judaism and Christianity broke up into different sects was used in the Qu ‘ran to prove that they are not of God [Suras 30:20-32. 42:13, 14]. Yet Islam has broken up into many warring sects and therefore cannot be true if the Quran is right.”

    Moreover, Morey in his book shows many more contradictions and absurdities in the Quran, there are and how Muhammad incorporated extra Biblical and Jewish folklore along with pre-Islamic Arabian myth and parts of Zoroastrian and Hindu stories into the Quran.

    Furthermore, the Muslims claim that “the Quran is the direct, literal word of God unmodified in any way by the Prophet who uttered them at the bidding of God.” In addition , in the book UNVEILING ISLAM by Ergun Mehmet Caner and Eethi Caner has shown that the Quran was modified in the following account on pages 45. “Muhammad felt the need to improve on the words of Allah, since he changed Allah’s wisdom for his own on several occasions. A hadith tells of the nonchalant emendations of Muhammad:’ On a number of occasions he [a scribe] had, with the Prophet’s consent changed the closing words of verses. For example, when the prophet had said ‘God is mighty and wise ‘ Adbollah b. Abi Sarh suggested writing down ‘Knowing and wise’ and the Prophet answered that there was no objection. Having observed a succession of changes of this type, Adbollah renounced Islam on the grounds that revelations, if from God could not be changed at the prompting of a scribe such as himself. After his apostasy he went to Mecca and joined the Qorayshites.’ Other writers reveal that later Muhammad and his people did go war with the Qorayshites and he personally killed Abdollah. Obviously Abdollah knew too much and Muhammad wanted Abdollah’s knowledge to die with him.”

    In conclusion, the Qu ‘ran is not only a fiction, it’s also a hoax and those dictators of that Islamic tyranny of Iran has a false foundation upon with their regime is build.

    In other words, that Islam regime of Iran is built upon a foundation of sand.

  13. The best hope the current Iranian regime now has, and it disgusts me as an American to acknowledge this, is what is left of the decrepit Biden Administration and followed by (God forbid) a Harris Administration.

    No wonder so many have left the Democratic Party like Tulsi Gabbard, Alan Dershowitz and, effectively, RFK Jr. Right now in this idiotic age in which we live the single greatest likelihood that idiocy and a lot of other negatives will continue is the Democratic Party of the USA. There are other “contenders” for this dubious honor but I challenge anyone to present an argument why the Democratic Party of America should not be put in first place here.

    Anyone voting for Harris is aiding Iran and many other tyrannical regimes because the modern Democratic Party has become the single greatest enemy of a better world contra a lesser world.

  14. The Decline and Fall of the Iranian Empire
    ……………………………………

    I hope so. There was a time when Lebanon was the most civilized nation (after Israel, of course) in the Middle East. With Hezb’allah on the ropes, may this be the case again.

    • Maybe even Iran itself, if the regime implodes and Turkey doesn’t interfare to try and resurrect the medieval Seljuq empire that ran from Turkmenistan to Anatolia
