Iranian Commander: U.S. Telling Iran To Keep Missile Tests Secret
Breitbart ^ | 17 May 2016 | Deborah Danan

Posted on 05/17/2016 5:18:12 AM PDT by detective

A senior Iranian missile force commander claimed that U.S. officials are secretly instructing the Islamic Republic to keep its ballistic missile tests secret so as not to alarm the region, according to the Iranian Tasnim News Agency.

Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Aerospace and Missile Force, said in an address to students in Qom on May 14 that the Obama administration is anxious that the missile tests remain clandestine so as not to raise questions about whether Iran is adhering to the nuclear deal.

“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,’ ” Hajizadeh was quoted as saying in the speech translated by MEMRI.

The Obama administration is lying about Iran. The situation appears worse than it appeared.

Why would an “Iranian Commander” expose such things? He’s either lying or an agent of a hostile foreign government.

Also, why doesn’t Iran demote or fire him?

It doesn’t make sense.

I suspect Britain’s Chamberlain said the same thing to Nazi Germany.

But, but, but... it’s the Repubs in Congress doing the lying, NOT the admin. They said so:

You're right. Why would the Iranians admit such a communication/message happened? Maybe it did, maybe it didn't. Their purpose in revealing it, or fabricating the lie would simply be to (further) weaken our administration's standing and influence in the region.

After all, it certainly sounds plausible, likely even. For that, we can lay the blame squarely on bammy. He has spent 7+ years coddling and sucking up to muslims and various middle eastern countries. He has a 7+ year track record of ineptitude and bungling "learn on the job" (if only he and his flunkies had learned something) foreign policy. So even if it is all a lie, everyone believes it could have happened.

Iran is saying it because they have no respect for Obama and enjoy insulting him.

At least Chamberlain loved Britain however much he was wrong. He even came to recognize the error he made.

Obama is a traitor.

“Why would an “Iranian Commander” expose such things?”

Because the Iranians have total contempt for the Obama administration. Throughout the Iranian negotiations the Iranians have said that the Obama administration was lying and misrepresenting what actually occurred.

The Iranians want the record to be clear. The Obama administration was dishonest.

<’ “A senior Iranian missile force commander claimed that U.S. officials are secretly instructing the Islamic Republic to keep its ballistic missile tests secret so as not to alarm the region, according to the Iranian Tasnim News Agency.”

“alarm the region”? Who is he kidding? They are constantly at each other’s throats over there. I think he means so as not to “alert”, not alarm Israel. That and put the American people on notice that they were scammed by the Marxist Manchurian Mulato Conman once again to pay taxes to help terrorists get their hands on nukes. That’s a pretty $hitty deal eh? Force all the middle class to work an extra 4 or 5 hours a week for free so the turban wearing head loppers can build bombs then bring them over here, smuggle them across a border where Obama has told border patrol agents to just stand down and let the poor little immigrants pass through and destroy whole cites and countless Millions of people with nothing more than dialing a phone number?

Oh and you think the terrorists got all $150B of that money? I don’t believe it for one second. I hope Trump appoints a special team to look at the conman’s finances as well as other Congressmen to figure out ow and why America was conned. That and appoint several Seal teams to hunt down Soros and destroy his NWO command control center and remove him from the face of the earth for all of his meddling and constant poking and prodding through the cage tactics with whole nations across the world.

But Chamberlain was trying to politically position himself, I don’t think his motives were pure.

I see a narcissistic motive that is much stronger in Obama but these men share some of the same ignorance of consequences of actions.

I agree about Chamberlain.

But I think Obama knows exactly what he's doing.

This behavior is in keeping with the clandestine behavior and all out lying to the ignorant and dumbed down Americans of today who live in a Peter Pan world of based on one assumption; that America must be destroyed as a world power. The dem-rino coalition of DC politicians and their state house lackeys are all out power mad and will destroy us. I wonder if there are enough Constitutional bible believing, gun toting, and good compared to evil conservative patriots left to fight back the monsters of DC.

Trouble is, the rinos like Ryan and others may be part of the con. The way they treat the Donald is very suspicious indeed.
