Last week, Reza Kahlili, a former Revolutionary Guard member wrote that Iran had reached a deal with the Obama Administration to preserve portions of its nuclear program.
Hossain Ebrahimi told reporters yesterday that Obama sent the regime a secret message.
On Saturday, the Iranian regime confirmed this report. The Iranian regime revealed on Saturday that the Obama Administration sent them a secret message through the Swiss Embassy recognizing their nuclear rights. The Swiss government, acting through its Embassy in Tehran, serves as protecting power for U.S. interests in Iran. Fars News reported, via Weasel Zippers:
Senior Iranian parliamentary sources revealed on Saturday that the Swiss envoy to Tehran has quoted US President Barack Obama as acknowledging Iran’s nuclear rights.
Swiss Ambassador to Tehran Livia Leu Agosti attended a meeting with senior Iranian foreign ministry officials a few days ago to submit a letter from the US president to Tehran leaders.
Vice-Chairman of the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Hossein Ebrahimi told FNA that during the meeting, Agosti had told the Iranian officials that President Barack Obama recognizes Iran’s right of access and use of the nuclear technology.
“There are a couple of points with regard to this (US) message (to Iran),” Ebrahimi said and added, “Firstly, during the session to submit the message, the Swiss ambassador to Tehran quoted the US president as saying that ‘we (the US) recognize your nuclear rights’.”
As regards the second issue, the lawmaker said that the Swiss diplomat had also quoted Obama as saying that “I didn’t want to impose sanctions on your central bank but I had no options but to approve it since a Congress majority had approved the decision.”
Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehman-Parast said on Sunday that Iran has received a US message regarding the Strait of Hormoz via three different channels.
“The US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice had handed a letter to Iran’s Ambassador to the UN Mohammad Khazayee; the Swiss Ambassador to Tehran (Livia Leu Agosti) also conveyed the same thing; and Iraqi President Jalal Talabani delivered the same message to Iranian officials,” he said last Sunday.
The US letter follows threats by Iran last month to shut off the Strait of Hormoz – the world’s most important oil shipping lane – if new US and EU sanctions over its nuclear program halted Iranian oil exports.
Just in time for a debate.
So sorry about the double post. It was unintentional but the content of the article may warrant a double post. This is nothing short of treason, if true.
Drill, baby, drill! Then they can do what they want with the Strait Of Hormuz!
Their timing is exquisite
Perhaps O's campaign is rattled by this revelation? Let's hope it is and that it continues through the debate this evening!
I’ll go ahead and call BS on this one. Obama can’t possibly be this stupid... Can he ?
I hate having a traitor with the title of President of the United States. What the is wrong with these brain dead leftists? I’m sick of it. They are disgusting, they use the best that this country has to offer, and they turn on it, as if this country is the enemy with all of their politically correct B.S., that makes no sense to even them, but they buy it, cause of their personal ambition and arrogance. I am fed up.
It was predictable...
Treason is all you can call it!
He prolly told them they could bomb Israel AFTER the election.
A couple of Mata Hari’s. May they meet the same fate.
Maybe I’m just thick in the head, but this makes no sense to me.
An “October Surprise” initiated by the Democratic administration that shows their candidate capitulating to the Iranians??
How could this possibly help him?
If he wanted to do this, why not wait till after the election?
Is there something else, something big, threatened that would require it be done now?
Head spinning. Someone help me understand.
By not MOVING TO IMPEACH OBAMA, the US Congress
supports this TREASON, every day.
EVERY SINGLE DAY.
It appears that either Iran prefers Romney, or neither Obama nor Iran understand how the American electorate will react to a one-sided concession.
I’m taking this with a grain of salt... I need more proof than this..
Mossad psyops perhaps?
