Iran commander: “The Americans are telling us: if you conduct a test or maneuver, don’t mention it”

Obama appears intent on covering up just how damaging his Iran nuclear deal really is, and how brazenly the Iranians are flouting even its toothless provisions.

=====================================================

“IRGC Aerospace And Missile Force Commander: The Americans Are Telling Us ‘Don’t Talk About Missile Affairs, And If You Conduct A Test… Don’t Mention It,'” MEMRI, May 14, 2016:

Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Aerospace and Missile Force of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), said at a conference of religious students in Qom on May 14, 2016:

“The arrogance [i.e. the U.S.] is trying to create [among us] the belief that Iran is at a crossroads, and that it has no choice but to compromise with America or be eternally subjected toAmerican [sic] pressure and the problems that stem from that… At the same time, within Iran the belief has taken root that it is not possible to solve [Iran’s] problems without America…

“If we stand fast against this move by the Americans, who have stolen the funds of the [Iranian] nation, they will abandon this habit [of thievery].But if we compromise with them, the[ir] thievery will end up [taking] $40-$50 billion of Iran’s assets and its blocked funds. The Americans understand only the language of force; they do not understand the language of reason. They cannot be trusted. We must face them down firmly, and we must act. If we do not, we will witness daily their exaggerated and evil demands.

“At this time, the Americans are telling [us]: ‘Don’t talk about missile affairs, and if you conduct a test or maneuver, don’t mention it.’ If we agree to this, they will advance another step, and say: ‘Don’t conduct [a missile test] at this time, and also don’t do it in the Persian Gulf region.’ After that, they will tell us: ‘Why do you need your missiles to have a range of 2,000 km [anyway?]?’…

Again, just more reflection on this reprobate and his Muslim pandering and incompetence has cost the world. Hey GOPe, feel good about leaving this America-hating clown in our White House?? Nice job...and you wonder why Trump is cleaning up.

There’s something almost too brazen about the way Iran’s treating the United States... Something doesn’t add up ...

That sounds exactly like what our unimpeached African Muslim Manchurian Candidate would say.

Well, all you have to consider is the person behind the curtain pulling the strings. Valerie Jarret, an Iranian.
