Rundown On Iran's Nuclear Power to Date

Nadene Goldfoot                                                
Nuclear plants in Europe
The Clinton and Bush Administrations made Israel feel safe with their pledges of never allowing Iran to have a nuclear weapon.  It's been 13 years since then and the Obama Administration with their bringing on CHANGES have altered that promise to guarantee a nuclear-free 13 years and that's it.  I may have passed on by then to see the results but Malia Ann and Natasha Obama will be just 30 and 27 years old. What horrors will they have to live through?  The USA is also on their hit parade as well as Israel.  No one will be really safe.  
                                                                              

Iran now has the nuclear fuel needed to make a bomb that can be dropped from a transport plane.  Kerry's team has given in to just about every demand which keeps the Iranian weapons program whole, just like they want it to be.
                                                                             
John Kerry and Mohammad Zarif, Iranian diplomat, academic and current Minister of Foreign Affairs . Iran and the US explored ways to give impetus to nuclear talks when their chief diplomats met in Geneva. Dr Zarif and US secretary of state John Kerry  conferred ahead of another  round of negotiations between Iran and six world powers on settling their 12-year standoff over Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.  

Where was the acceptable deal?  It's non-existent.  There should be no R & D activity on advanced centrifuges; a decrease in the number of working centrifuges;   the Fordow plant closed up or destroyed;  the shipping of enriched uranium out of the country, the allowing of international inspections; the Natanz facility to limit enrichment of uranium at a level needed only for civilian purposes, destroying all but about 1/3 of installed centrifuges;  and having the Arak heavy-water reactor modified so it is incapable of producing plutonium for a bomb.  That's all they need!  
                                                                               
Marines in Town 

The USA is still a powerful country.  It could stop Iran's progress if it wanted to.  It has gone from changing its policy in mid-negotiations of not having any nuclear weapons production to talking about limitations and supervision on their plants.  Even Henry Kissinger was shocked at the turn of events.   The USA now accepts the idea of Iran going nuclear.  Perhaps their excuse is: why not join the rest of the world who have nuclear capabilities for power?  Why pick on Iran?  
                                                                               
Japanese nuclear power plant
  

The answer is that the other countries are using nuclear power for electricity, not bombs.   The USA and Russia have the most.  Then other countries have a few.  North Korea, South Korea, China, India, Japan, and Germany and Switzerland who are going to phase out of it, France, Canada, Sweden, etc.  The problems Japan recently had with their stations is causing others to think about using fossil fuel instead.  The problem is that left in the hands of an evil empire, it is too dangerous for others.  Iran exhibits evil intentions for this power.

2015 Death to Israel 

They have made it known that no one can ever inspect their military sites.  Saturday was their annual Army Day Military Parade.  One truck had a large banner saying, "DEATH TO ISRAEL."  The people at the parade chanted, "DEATH TO ISRAEL, DEATH TO AMERICA! "  

"According to the World Nuclear Association, a nuclear power advocacy group, over 45 countries are giving "serious consideration" to introducing a nuclear power capability, with Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Vietnam, Belarus, and Jordan at the forefront."  The fact that Iran is being allowed to have this power is causing the other Middle Eastern states to need it for their defense as well.  

The whole world isn't going nuclear.  "As of 2012, countries such as Australia, Austria, Denmark, Greece, Ireland,Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta, and Portugal remain opposed to nuclear power."  
                                                                           

After Iran signed the draft for the nuclear deal and with the sound of "Okay, sanctions are now lifted, " they immediately ordered S-300 missiles, which are  offensive weapons from Russia  which is causing more militarization in Iran and tensions are increasing; that and all the hanging of prisoners going on. One must remember that this is not a free country.  
                                                                                

 Many Arabs see that the nuclear deal has caused Iran to be even more aggressive.  It certainly isn't making them peaceful.  Their capital, Tehran, realizes they have neutralized Western countries from butting into their plans.  They think they now have an open map and the borders are to be adjusted by them, just as IS thinks.  The 2 of them, Iran and IS, are now fighting against each other, as a matter of fact.

Netanyahu of Israel is very worried about this shipment.  Iran, through Hezbollah, has been  stepping up their aggression around the borders of Israel.  Nothing about their behavior has been addressed in the  nuclear deal overseen by Kerry.  What Israel sees is that Iran's missiles are bigger every year, and on them is inscribed, DEATH TO ISRAEL.    Israel has made it known that they have reiterated their right to target these missile batteries if found in the hands of terrorist organizations procured from Iran or Syria.  Putin just sits back and placates Netanyahu saying, oh no!  These missiles are for defensive purposes. for Iran and are no threat to Israel's security.  Ha!    Since when does a missile know about its use?  Is it a defensive or offensive weapon?  
                                                                          
Houthis fighting al-Qaeda  in the city during cease fire

Shia Iran has been accused of arming the Shia Houthi rebels in Yemen, which is 99% Muslim with both Sunni/Shi'a.  They sent out their own navy into the region now and will see that the USA has 7 ships there already with 2,200 Marines in them.  The Sunni Saudis have led a bombing campaign there which they are continuing.  "  The President, Abdrabbuh Mansosur Hadi, was forced out of the capital, Sanaa, in February.  His forces are still fighting the rebels, the Houthis.  Yemen is becoming a battleground for the Iranians and Saudis' war.  Saudi Arabia has a coalition with them of 5 Gulf Arab states, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco and Sudan.  
                                                                           
al Qaeda

It's all being complicated by  an opposition force of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula called the AQAP who is attacking both the president of Yemen and the Houthis.  This is all what Iran's aggression has caused.   Everyone is trying to steal away the power.

Khamaeni, the Holocaust Denier and Why He's So Wrong

Nadene Goldfoot                                          

The Nazi, Adolf Hitler, plotting with The Arab Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini in Berlin, Germany on November 21, 1941. 

The Mufti  issued a fatwa, a summons to a holy war against BRITAIN in May 1941 and this was declared in Iraq.  The Mufti of Jerusalem  was then instrumental in the pro-Nazi coup.    However, when the Jewish immigrants  were attempting to get to Palestine by shiploads in the late 30's, Nazis were at the apex of attacking Jews in Germany.   Then  England decided not to follow the  mandate to create a Jewish State there.  Instead, they decided to re-admit former supporters of the Mufti of Jerusalem, the Arabs, into Palestine instead and forcibly kept the Jews out!

"Most Holocaust denial claims imply, or openly state, that the Holocaust is a hoax arising out of a deliberate Jewish conspiracy to advance the interest of Jews at the expense of other peoples. For this reason, Holocaust denial is generally considered to be an antisemitic conspiracy theory, frequently encountering criticism."  Holocaust deniers are calling themselves revisionists, lately.  They can call themselves many things, but I call them stupid.  
                                                                         
                                          Jews forced to go to Aushwitz on cattle trains.  

" Aushwitz was a network of concentration and extermination camps built and operated by the Third Reich in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany during World War II. It consisted of Auschwitz I (the base camp); Auschwitz II–Birkenau (the extermination camp); Auschwitz III–Monowitz (a labor camp to staff an IG Farben factory), and 45 satellite camps."  This was just one of many.  

Germans were good at many things, and the one thing they were outstanding in from the 30's onwards was in keeping records.  They recorded every minute of the Holocaust including all its ugliness.  To say that the Holocaust didn't exist is ridiculous.  There are so many records of every detail taken by the Nazis themselves. They took still pictures and moving pictures as well as moving picture news reports.   One would have had to have been either just born recently and kept from the library or if elderly, had been in some sort of prison where news never got to you.  Whatever Khameni of Iran's problem is  must be pure denial.  He is in big denial. Just recently he pronounced that "If Shoah did indeed take place, there is no certainty about what happened there."  

What happened there was brutality of Nazis and other anti-Semites who worked as fast as they could to slaughter 6 million Jews.  They gassed them and burned them in furnaces.  They shot groups who fell into already prepared pits.  They had decided that their economic woes were all the Jews' fault and so to deal with that and make themselves richer, they set about to kill a whole people.  To them, six million would have been a good start.  If they hadn't been stopped they would have continued to kill every Jew on the face of the earth.  Canada and the USA would have been the next site to find us.

Jews have been scapegoats for others to blame all the ills of the world on for centuries, ever since they lost their country in 70 CE to the Romans.  They have had to wander and depend on the emotions of the king of a county as to how he was feeling towards Jews at that moment.  Sometimes they asked them into a country to help out with their economic woes, as they were good accountants.  They were smart people.  Then, eventually that got in the way as it caused jealousy within the people of the land and eventually they were exiled.  In Germany's case, Jews had been there since before 1,000 CE and were loyal Germans, industrious people, and the first to be attacked for being "different" from all the other Germans. Being different meant that they weren't Christians.   

One way the Germans kept tract of how many Jews they had was through the use of IBM punch-out cards, made in the good old USA. They started their IBM-Nazi agreement in 1933.   The same type of cards were used in the USA on their Japanese in internment camps during the war, too.  The Germans identified and catalogued Jews in their programs executed in the 1930s to the selections of who lives and who dies in the 1940s.  Eventually everyone died.  They could have used a computer, but they weren't invented yet.  Hitler's identification program was essential for quick and efficient confiscation of their property, clothing, gold in their teeth, etc, and putting them in ghettos for storage, deportation, enslaved labor, and the ovens.  

Records of evidence are in our USA government archives that are public.  The Khameni should fly over sometime and sit down and read some of the evidence. Khameni cheers people who join him in this denial.   

What's frightening is that the USA seems to be basing their policy towards the Islamic republic, Iran, as being  an honest broker.  Why are they taking Iran at its word?  They have been lying to us before, and are lying now.  If it turns out that they truly are lying to us about uranium and their goals, Israel and the USA are heading into an abyss of no return.  An example of lying from Iran is "Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif  who had told ABC's George Stephanopoulos last September that reports that  Khamenei had openly denied the Holocaust were as a result of "bad translation" and were taken "out of context."  Not so.  He knew that's how Khameni thinks.  He's a consummate Holocaust denier since it really goes against Islam as well.  

Surely he has heard of the Nurenburg trials held in Nurenburg, Germany from November 20, 1945 to October 1, 1946, trying 23 leaders of the 3rd Reich of Nazi Germany.  After the atrocities of what the Nazis had practiced in trying to erase a whole people, the Jews, and other victims, they were put on trial and found guilty.  There's even a movie about it, Judgement at Nuremberg which was made in 1961.  This brought out the fact that their crimes were committed in violation of the Law of Nations or the Laws of War.  It was directed by Stanley Kramer and such famous people as Spencer Tracey, Burt Lancaster, Richard Widmark, Maximilian Schell, Werner Klemperer, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland, William Shatner and Montgomery Clift were in it.  An earlier version was broadcast as a TV episode of Playhouse 90.  Somebody, send Khamenei a copy of this trial!  

As it turns out, the Arabs put the pressure on the British to not fulfil their obligation to create a Jewish State in Palestine so that the Nazis could capture them all and kill them.  Those trying to enter Palestine in the late 30's and early 40's were turned away by the British who were mandated create the Jewish state and failed miserably. If the USA hadn't stepped into the war, Britain would have been taken by the Nazis.  I find it ironic that two of the judges at Nurenberg were British.   "Geoffrey Lawrence, 3rd Baron Trevethin, 1st Baron Oaksey, DSO, TD, KC, PC (2 December 1880 – 28 August 1971) was the main British Judge during the Nuremberg trials after World War II, and President of the Judicial group." 

 One wonders if he was related to Lawrence of Arabia.  Thomas Edward Lawrence was #2 in a family of 5 illegitimate boys whose father was Sir Thomas Chapman. "an Anglo-Irish landowner, the last of the Chapman baronets of Killua Castle in Ireland."  They all took the surname of Lawrence when the parents, Sarah Lawrence and Thomas Chapman  lived together but didn't marry. Sarah Lawrence had given him the 5 boys.  He had daughters from his 1st marriage who Sarah was governess for.  Unless the judge was related to Sarah's Lawrence family, they were not connected.   

Israel is wary that Khameni is plotting to finish what Hitler started, and that is to exterminate all the Jews now living in Israel with his uranium plans of creating a weapon of some sort, most likely an A bomb.  

Different religions have tried to wipe out Jews.  First it was the Christian Crusaders of Europe starting in 1096 who attacked Jews as well as their target, the Muslims, and then the Spanish Inquisition culminating in 1492, the Holocaust of a Catholic Hitler who was quite irreligious but political from 1933 to 1945, and now the Muslim Arabs since 1948 who will not abide Jews within their circle of the Middle East.  Perhaps it is meant that Jews are to survive.  Our saying is Am Yisrael Chai!  The people of Israel live!  The world would be much better off if those who haven't would  just accept us. Note that not once have Jews been aggressive towards anyone in the world, but have had to be defensive against all the attacks in order to survive.  And survive we have!
