A Step In Dealing With Raisi of Iran: Summit Meeting in Washington DC October 2021

 Nadene Goldfoot

October 28, 2021                       


The 48th Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence and other political leaders, along with hundreds of Iranian American Community leaders attended the Free Iran 2021 Summit in Washington, DC. The speakers and the Summit called for a decisive Iran policy and demanded Ebrahim Raisi and the regime he represents be held accountable for nuclear defiance, regional meddling and the 1988 massacre of 30,000 political prisoners.

Washington's nuclear summits go back to 2010.  Iran said, then: Iran said it would not be bound by any decision made by the 47 nations at this week's nuclear security summit in Washington. Tehran is preparing to hold its own counter-proliferation summit next weekend."

Evidently a summit meeting was also held in 2019.  It was held in New York City in September.  UANI's annual Iran Policy conference featuring senior government officials and policy experts from the U.S. and around the world.   We have to assume that it takes the many meeting held to let Washington know which way to go and how to act, since they haven't seen eye to eye with these people.   

                                           

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi:   to identify Iran with its people and not with its criminal rulers.”                             

 Mr. Mike Pence, former Vice President of USA,  referenced ongoing crimes against humanity in Iran and said Iranian regime president, “Ebrahim Raisi must be removed from office by the people of Iran, and he must be prosecuted for crimes against humanity and genocide.”

                                                

 Joseph Lieberman, former Senator, “The greatest threat that the United States faces today is from the regime in Tehran,”  “It has enabled aggression and subversion in the region, and is bringing untold suffering and death to the people of Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Iraq, and of course in Iran; ” prosecute Iranian regime president Ebrahim Raisi ;  “Instead of occupying the office of the president of a great country like Iran, Raisi should be arrested, taken to The Hague, and put on trial for crimes against humanity and the crime of genocide.” ; how anyone, “in the leadership of our closest allies and the Biden administration,” can “believe that an effective agreement on nuclear weapons or anything else can be achieved with this regime?”

Judge Michael Mukasey, the 81st U.S. Attorney General highlighted clerical regime’s nuclear defiance and terrorism ; “Since [Raisi] took office, we’ve witnessed the escalation of threats of missile launches, attacks by unmanned aerial vehicles and other instruments of destruction.”  “as toying with the concept of a nuclear free Iran, and simply running the clock while work proceeds toward enriching uranium at ever higher levels.” ; the regime’s abysmal human rights record ; international “response should be unrelenting pressure and open willingness to deal with individual members of the regime, including Raisi himself.”                                 


 Robert Torricelli (D-NJ)former Senator ; “The leadership in Tehran has gone from bad to selecting a war criminal, a leader of a genocide, as president.” ; “There is one organization that has never compromised with terror, never sat at a table and divided up your freedoms, never participated in genocide, isn’t responsible for your poverty. There’s one and that one organization has the means, the leadership, the focus, the international support to rejoin the international community. That organization is the MEK, and Madam Rajavi is its leader.”

                                                   


General James Conway, 34th Commandant of the Marine Corps, urged the European nations to refrain from dealing with Raisi’s regime,will only strengthen the regime. “Iran now has a criminal for a president. Raisi has the blood of 30,000 of your countrymen on his hands. He was one of four members of that infamous Death Commission that oversaw 30,000 executions in 1988,” Evidently not the first conference.  


Ms. Hannane Amanpour, a member of the Iranian American community, whose father was killed by the regime in 1988, and possible relative to Christiane Amanpour of CNN whose father is Iranian; “My father was a good man. He cared deeply about the fate of his homeland, and about preserving human rights and women’s rights. He loved his religion and was repulsed by the idea of fundamental clerics manipulating and distorting it in furtherance of evil.”

The 2021 Free Iran Summit was sponsored by the Organization of Iranian-American Communities. OIAC is a non-profit and non-partisan organization representing the network of Iranian-American organizations nationwide with membership in over 40 states across the United States. OIAC supports the goals of the National Council of Resistance of Iran, and the 10-point plan of Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the NCRI for a democratic, secular, and non-nuclear republic Iran.

Rajavi was born Maryam Qajar-Azodanlu on 4 December 1953 in TehranIran. She was raised in a middle-class civil servant family descended from a member of the Qajar dynasty. She attended the Sharif University of Technology in Iran, earning a B.S. in metallurgy.  Rajavi has stated that her political activism began when she was 22 after her sister Narges was killed by SAVAK. Then she became a member of the People's Mojahedin of Iran (PMOI/MEK), and began her political career. Rajavi served as deputy commander and MEK Secretary General until 1993.

IAEA director general Rafael Grossi speaks with Christiane Amanpour about the Iran nuclear deal and why he believes nuclear energy offers a way out of the climate crisis.

Iran's men of the Hour, Salami and Raisi, and Their Drone Threats to USA and Israel

Nadene Goldfoot                                                 

Iran's Revolutionary Guards Chief, General Hossein Salami,  is boasting that they have drones with a range of 7,000kms, which is 4,349.598 miles or about 4,350 miles.  He said this only yesterday, Monday, June 27, 2021.  Is he trying to impress or scare Americans or make Iranians feel better about themselves these days.  They cannot reach the USA with them, but certainly can reach anyone in the Middle East.  They already have a hold on Syria and Iraq.  After all, they are now in negotiating in nuclear talks.  Tehran has  cut off cameras that enabled the International Atomic Energy Agency to monitor Iran's nuclear facilities.  

                                                               

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps is a branch of the Iranian Armed Forces, founded after the Iranian Revolution on 22 April 1979 by order of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.  The Chief Commander of the Guardians since 2019 is Hossein Salami, who was preceded by Mohammad Ali Jafari and Yahya Rahim Safavi respectively from 2007 and 1997.  The IRGC is designated as a terrorist organization by the governments of Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the United States.                                                                  

Salami was born in 1960 in GolpayeganIsfahan province, Iran. In 1978, he was accepted in the mechanical engineering department at the Iran University of Science and Technology. When the Iran–Iraq War started, he joined the IRGC. After the war, he continued his study and graduated with a Master's degree in defense management.  On 20 June 2019, Salami became internationally known when the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)  overthrew a US surveillance drone.

                                                                  

As of January 2014, when Barack Obama was president, the U.S. military operates a large number of unmanned aerial systems (UAVs or Unmanned Air Vehicles): 7,362 RQ-11 Ravens; 990 AeroVironment Wasp IIIs; 1,137 AeroVironment RQ-20 Pumas; and 306 RQ-16 T-Hawk small UAS systems and 246 MQ-1 Predators and MQ-1C Gray Eagles; 126 MQ-9 Reapers; 491 RQ-7 Shadows; and 33 RQ-4 Global Hawk large systems."  UAS no longer only perform intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions, although this still remains their predominant type. Their roles have expanded to areas including electronic attackdrone strikessuppression or destruction of enemy air defense, network node or communications relay, combat search and rescue, and derivations of these themes. These UAS range in cost from a few thousand dollars to tens of millions of dollars, with aircraft ranging from less than one pound to over 40,000 pounds.

                                                                         

Israel has drones.  The IAI Heron (Machatz-1) is a medium-altitude long-endurance unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) developed by the Malat (UAV) division of Israel Aerospace Industries.  The Heron navigates using an internal GPS navigation device, and either a pre-programmed flight profile (in which case the system is fully autonomous from takeoff to landing), manual override from a ground control station, or a combination of both. It can autonomously return to base and land in case of lost communication with the ground station. The system has fully automatic launch and recovery (ALR) and all-weather capabilities. It's 968 miles from Tehran to Jerusalem.                     

                            Sayyid Ebrahim Raisol Sadafi, Born 14 December 1960

Ancestrally, Ebrahim Raisi is among Husayn ibn Ali (Hussaini) Sayyids, and he is connected to Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin Sayyids.  Sayyid is an honorific title denoting people accepted as descendants of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and his cousin and son-in-law Ali through his grandsons, Hasan ibn Ali and Husayn ibn Ali, sons of Muhammad's daughter Fatimah and Ali. Female sayyids are given the titles sayyida, syeda, alawiyah or sharifa.  He's giving his ancestors a very bad reputation with his behaviors.  

Iran just "elected", using the term broadly, a new president, who will also be under the Ayatollah's commands.  He is  Ebrahim Raisi, a real anti-Semite.  Newsweek had an article on him, sharing with us that Iran's  Ebrahim Raisi, played a hands-on role in promoting "The Protocols" as part of a sustained campaign to demonize and delegitimize the Jewish people.  Raisi's track record shows us that an obsessive hatred of the Jewish state is not an abstraction but a major feature of his career.  He has gotten much attention for reported crimes against humanity. It is well-documented that he was one of four judges who, in the late 1980s, oversaw the execution of thousands of members of Iranian opposition groups, including women and children.  He's been said to be the picture of evil.  

CNN did a report on Raisi.  Iran's Ebrahim Raisi is known as the ‘Butcher of Tehran’ for his alleged role in the executions of thousands of political prisoners and pro-democracy demonstrators.

Both men of Iran are 61 years of age. One is the head man of terrorists and the other is ultra anti-Semitic. And I thought Amadinejad was bad enough.

His 2005 presidential campaign, supported by the Alliance of Builders of Islamic Iran, garnered 62% of the runoff election votes, and he became president on 3 August 2005. During his presidency, Ahmadinejad was a controversial figure in Iran and other countries.  The Official Web site of the President of Iran quoted Ahmadinejad as saying on 15 May 2011 "The reason for our insistence that the Zionist regime should be wiped out and vanished is that the Zionist regime is the main base for imposing oppression and harbors the main terrorists of the world."

He was strongly criticized after claiming that the  Jews invented the Holocaust and making other statements influenced by "classic anti-Semitic ideas," which has led to accusations of antisemitism. Ahmadinejad denied that he was an anti-semite, saying that he "respects Jews very much" and that he was not "passing judgment" on the Holocaust. Later, Ahmadinejad claimed that promoting Holocaust denial was a major achievement of his presidency; he stated that "putting it forward at the global level  broke the spine of the Western capitalist regime". The comments appeared on the Arabic but not on the English version of Fars News Agency's website.
