Iran's miscalculation
American Thinker ^ | Jan. 7, 2020 | Giuliano Maciocci

Posted on 01/07/2020 6:52:48 AM PST by libstripper

It is hard to understand Iran Supreme Leader Khamenei’s blunder in attacking the US Embassy in Baghdad. He either believed Trump was weakened by his impeachment, as western liberal Media breathlessly and continuously reported, or he might have been misled by John Kerry’s incompetent advice (apparently Kerry met again with Khamenei’s emissaries in Paris just few weeks ago). Whatever the reasons, his goal of triggering a limited war with America to rally his people around the regime has failed miserably. (my emphasis.)

Kerry needs to be sans passport. I’m sure he’s still running around on a State Department issued one. Stop giving your enemies the tools to undo your work.

Treason is nothing new to kerry, the chronic traitor and seditionist. The bum should arrested, taken to GITMO and waterboarded with extreme prejudice. What a useless excuse for a human being. This oaf is integrity-free.

They thought they could hang Trump with the phone call... until he released the transcript and blew their narrative to hell.

They thought they could give Trump a Benghazi moment... until he secured the embassy and blew their emissary to hell.

I’m seeing a pattern... they aren’t smart. They keep expecting Trump to react to them as they react to the world... cowardly.

Ketchup boy by marriage. From that "Lurch Period", where we somehow fabricated in our minds a scale of height indicating competency. It brought us Mittens, Kerry, Comey, Mueller, etc... The media always reported their actions as brave, formidable, powerful, high in stature, highly regarded, etc....

Their actual product of work was embarrassingly expensive, and while they brought their best of wisdom and ability to the table, it offered nothing to the conversation other than service to self.

have Kerry's recent communications with the Iranians closely investigated

If a Republican had done this during a Rat administration, the NSA would have already leaked the conversation to the NY Times.

In 2009, Kerry’s younger daughter from his first marriage, Dr. Vanessa Bradford Kelly, married Iranian-American physician, Dr. Brian (Behrooz) Vala Nahid.

The Best Man at their wedding, Mahdi Zarif, was the son of Iran’s Foreign Minister, Javad Zarif, who acted as Iran’s chief negotiator in official nuclear talks with the US.

In other words, Javad Zarif was John Kerry’s counterpart in official Iran nuclear deal negotiations, the same negotiations that eventually ended up with Iran being given 150 Billion in cash with literally no SIGNED agreement and, thus, no strings attached.

Ah, but it gets better…

Who do you think threw a dinner party – that John Kerry attended – as part of the preparations leading up to the wedding?

Well, yes, it was none other than George Soros and the party took place at his Penthouse in Manhattan.

Kerry has earned a length of hemp rope and a date to do the Tyburn Jig.

Khameni can’t read — he thought that Trump was spelled: C-A-R-T-E-R.

Kerry and his ilk will skate in the American judicial system and they are well aware of it.

“his goal of triggering a limited war with America”

Hmm, someone should have explained to him that America’s idea of a “limited war” is securing air superiority over his country, followed by a massive strategic bombardment.

They also thought they could get Trump by tying him to Epstein, jailed Epstein, then found they couldn’t tie Trump to Epstein, discovered they were stuck with Epstein and, having nothing else to do, murdered Epsrein.

Correct!

When the Moslems who were bashing the Christians in Constapinople, they said Allahhu Akhbar. the Crusaders said DEUS VULT in response.
