The Gradual Sanctions Policy is a Bluff, A War Is also a Bluff.

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

Right now the Goal is the Weakening the people of Iran and the strenghtening of the Islamic Regime.  To say this openly would be very unpopular and even unpatriotic so the dance of deceit and manipulation is essential.  Not only are Sanctions a Bluff Policy, a war started by either side is a bluff too.  There are no real sanctions on Oil, because they all come with a Waiver, this means oil prices will rise due to gradual approach of application of sanctions and also giving regime the space to make empty threats on an, impossible to back up plan to shut down Hormuz.  The markets have to factor in the new threats and restrictions to EU, so oil goes up to $120-$140.  So Regime will be even more secure and Iran will be able to sell it all sadly to coutries with waivers like Japan/China/India and on a gradual and slow basis to new customers in 3rd world countries.  Meanwhile the other sanctions are increasing the costs for ordinary people while giving the IRI a Cash Shot in the Arm, therefore enriching all levels of the regime.  I got to hand it to his Majesty Reza Pahlavi, Sending Khameneii to the ICC and encouraging Iranians to form a Congress, shows real guts and versatility to be able to get Iranians to make important organizational moves and have the TOTAL COVER of the Wests Policies intended to Manipulate their own people and Iranians also.  It does not take a trained eye to see the lack of desire to implement democracy in their own countries or the lack of respect human rights for their own people with eternal detentions, Killing Americans in Secret on a whim LOL 

Taking advantage of the wests hypocrissy is really quite pro-active by His Majesties team and by the west not supporting these moves today and not taking the people of Iran seriously, later on it will become easier to gradually un-manipulate more of the people of Iran regarding the true aims of the USA/UK regarding Democracy and Human Rights for Iran.

I'm afraid the West will Chicken Out thanks to Zakaria, Trita and Co pushing for appeasement ...

 

They are already everywhere discouraging the current policy adopted by the US and Europe with their usual set of "experts" ...

He is right

No way the sanctions are hurting him. This criminal ZAALOO is out of touch with reality. The people, other than the theive who support him, are hurting badly. And even the MSTAZEFINS are beginning to squack with the rocketing cost of living. Sure hope he gets his well-deserved punishment before his demise.

Miscalculations

The miscalculation is to think people will support him. They will not because there is no reason. Why should an Iranian solider fight America facing death to protect Ali Gheda? 

First of all it is a hopeless fight given the lopsided military power. Second if by some chance they won they get Ali Gheda. Who in his right mind wants to keep this ass*** in power. I said before and say now: drop your gun; surrender or run.

To those in the west who want to "fight to ..."; go right ahead. Don't blame me when you are in Guantanamo. This will be a true Darwin award contest; purging Iran of the idiots. Please see: //www.darwinawards.com/

Warmongering

The Head Islamist Rapist has decided to impose another war on Iran and Iranians.

Those, including the compensated lobbies and lefty individuals, describing the Islamist Rapists as “pragmatists” need to speak up NOW.
