The single quickest act that the White House and the State Department can perform, short of launching an armed attack on Iranian forces and territory, is to reverse a fourteen year old politically-driven faulty decision to place the Iranian resistance group Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), aka the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), on the State [...]

Why are the same leaders who so passionately protect Muslim rights in America doing nothing for Christians who are dying in record numbers? Why has the church been virtually silent about the suffering of our brethren?” [...] If the term "apartheid" still refers to unequal treatment under the law, forced segregation, or outright exclusion on religious, racial, or ethnic grounds, then it's the Palestinian donkey that should be pinned with the "apartheid" label, not Israel. [...] The revolts throughout the Arab world have shown that Israel is not the central problem, and yet our president and his State Department seem to follow the old line that the Palestine question is the root of all the Middle East's problems. [...] Where is President Obama trying to go on the Palestinian state question, and how likely is he to have any success, given Palestinian and Israeli positions? In the following essay, an analysis will be presented. The popular saying "only fools dare to tread where wise men fear to go" is probably applicable here. [...] To date, too few Western leaders have taken Iranian leaders like Mahmoud Ahmadinejad or Ali Khameneiat their word when they say that Israel must disappear from the map and/or the pages of history. Nor should jihad be understood only in terms of martial actions; jihad can and does take the form of economic warfare and [...] An Open Letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from Americans for Democracy in the Middle-EastOver this past weekend, the Iraqis invaded Camp Ashraf and threatened to expel its residents. [...] Before looking at the military option, it is worthwhile looking at some of the economic pressures that can be applied to Iran. [...] Those who handle our foreign policy must be able to comprehend adequately the threats that emanate from those rogue regimes and their terrorist proxies by having a comprehensive and broad training in the beliefs, methodologies, and mores of our adversaries. [...] Putting economic pressure on Iran will not cause its leadership to reverse course, but it can convince the majority of lower class Iranians that the regime is more concerned about its own power than it is about the average Iranian's welfare. [...] Iran's continued rejection of all western diplomatic offers demonstrates graphically that President Obama's policy of engagement has been a dismal failure. [...] If the Khomeinists are thrown out, any Iranian government will be an improvement, and the need to exercise the military option will be obviated. [...] It's time that President Obama stop appeasing the clerics and the terror-sponsors of Tehran and support those that fight for freedom and the dignity of the individual. [...] Israel's attempts at accommodation have met with rejection and refusal to accept a non-Arab state within the region. [...] If the United States reneges on its promise to protect 3,500 Iranian exiles in Iraq, why should the State of Israel trust that the United States will fulfill promises to protect the Jewish State? [...] Hell will freeze over five times before the jihadists change their ways. [...] Ashraf is the home of 3,418 members of the Iranian resistance organization, the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran. [...] Now is the time for Barack Obama to demonstrate that he respects the aspirations of the Iranian people. [...] How does a military power confront the true-believing enemy that is not only willing to die, but actively seeks death as a way of psychologically defeating the superior power it faces? [...] Now that we have turned the corner and brought most of the Sunnis and many of the Shiites over to our side we need to be very careful not to give our new friends and allies the impression that we are abandoning them. [...] The Third Option is the empowerment of the Iranian people itself, aided by the Iranian people’s oldest, best organized, and most popular opposition groups — the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) and the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK). [...] In his recent book, Michael Ledeen sets out the case for a stronger response to Iran’s twenty-nine years of war against the United States and our allies. [...] |
