Iran Can’t Be Amalek Because Major Hebrew Prophet Isaiah Prophesied Cyrus the Great, by Name, Up to Two Centuries Before His Birth, Thus Facilitating the Hebrews’ Release from the Babylonian Captivity
What accounts for Israel’s unreasoning hatred of Iran? The Israelis can’t claim the historical fiction that Iran is part of Amalek. Instead, their supposed “ancestors” were heavily reliant on Cyrus the Great, because he liberated them from the Babylonian Captivity; thus, they didn’t have the adverse relations with the Persians they’d had with the Amelekites. The Old Testament prophet Isaiah astonishingly predicted the rise of Persian King Cyrus the Great, by name, 100-200 years before his birth, in Isaiah 44:23-45:8, as “God’s Anointed Shepherd”; and because of this, Cyrus heavily favored them.
Isaiah 44:23 Sing, O ye heavens; for the Lord hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.
24 Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
25 That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish;
26 That confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers; that saith to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be inhabited; and to the cities of Judah, Ye shall be built, and I will raise up the decayed places thereof:
27 That saith to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up thy rivers:
28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid.
45:1 Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut;
2 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:
3 And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.
4 For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me.
5 I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.
7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
8 Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the Lord have created it.
This prophecy by the Old Testament’s greatest Major Prophet, Isaiah, 100-200 years prior to the time Cyrus was consolidating his imperial reign, was apparently instrumental in his liberating the Jews from their Babylonian Captivity, after Cyrus had conquered Babylon and allowed them to return to Judah, ending the exile in 538 BC; this is described in the Bible as “the Edict of Cyrus” where he permitted the Jews to rebuild their temple in Jerusalem.

Edict of Cyrus
The reality underlying much of Israel’s hostility to Iran, seems to be that Royal Dutch Shell/BP, a Rothschild possession, suffered nationalization on May 1, 1951 of its Iranian petroleum interests under Mossadegh.
The Iranian nationalization of Rothschild held Royal Dutch Shell petroleum assets has been instrumental in Israel’s determination to effect regime change in Iran.
Iran’s nationalization of its oil industry—including Rothschild-linked Royal Dutch Shell assets—has been a central factor in Israel’s relentless drive to destabilize and overthrow the Iranian government. The mainstream narrative paints Israel’s hostility toward Iran as a matter of “regional security” or ideological opposition, but the reality is far more straightforward: it’s about power, control, and financial interests, particularly in the oil sector.
The Rothschild-Shell Connection and Iran’s Nationalization
Iran’s vast oil reserves were long dominated by Western financial elites, particularly the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC, later BP) and Royal Dutch Shell, both of which had significant Rothschild backing. By the early 1950s, Iran—under Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh—took a bold step by nationalizing these assets, effectively cutting out the Western-controlled oil monopolies that had been siphoning off Iran’s wealth for decades. This move was a direct economic threat to Rothschild interests, who had long used their control over companies like Shell to manipulate global oil markets.
Israel’s Role in the 1953 Coup: A Precedent for Regime Change
Though much attention is given to the CIA and MI6 role in Operation Ajax—the 1953 coup that overthrew Mossadegh—it is often overlooked that Israel, even in its early years, strongly supported the return of a Western-controlled regime in Iran. Mossadegh’s nationalization efforts posed an existential challenge to the financial and corporate interests tied to the Rothschild oil empire. The coup reinstalled the Shah, a Western puppet who promptly returned Iran’s oil resources to their previous owners, including Shell.
1979 Revolution: The Ultimate Blow to Rothschild Oil Interests
When the Islamic Revolution of 1979 toppled the Shah, Iran once again expelled foreign oil monopolies, including those backed by the Rothschilds. This was an economic and geopolitical disaster for the Western financial elite. Iran ceased to be a client state, refused to trade oil in the dollar-dominated system, and became a direct competitor to Israeli and Western-controlled energy interests in the region.
(It is considered that, along with Osama bin Laden, Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi, the Iranian Leader at the time of the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the Ayatollah Khomeini, was in the employ of Western intelligence services. In that instance, President Jimmy Carter was in the camp of the Rockefeller family, which was being de-throned through back-room intelligence operations. Carter thought he could purge the CIA, this in the aftermath of the CIA/Wall St. purge of Nixon, himself not legally responsible for the misdeeds of his subordinates, a number of whom themselves in the Watergate break-in were actual CIA employees. And Carter’s move on the CIA was in the wake of the Senate "Church Hearings". A limited Iranian student takeover of American diplomatic facilities, was taken advantage of by the V.P. candidate under Reagan—who was mafia-affiliated through MCA—Reagan’s V.P., former CIA head George H.W. Bush, later President Bush 41. Carter cashiered 2,000 CIA agents; Bush didn’t take it lying down, but arranged for the Ayatollah Khomeini to be given $44 million, to prolong what should have been a short student protest, to 444 days, specifically for the purpose of defeating Carter. Literally within hours of Reagan’s January 20, 1981 inauguration, the Iranians released the American diplomatic hostages, and the later Iran-Contra scandal would plague Bush throughout the Reagan administration.)
Israel’s Push for Regime Change: Oil and Financial Control
Israel’s long-standing hostility toward Iran is often framed in ideological terms, but in reality, it is largely about securing control over energy resources and eliminating a regional power that resists financial subjugation. Consider the following key points:
* Iran’s independent oil industry challenges Western (Rothschild-backed) energy monopolies – Since 1979, Iran has remained outside the Western-controlled oil cartel, threatening their dominance over global supply.
* Iran’s trade policies weaken Rothschild-linked financial networks – Iran bypasses the petrodollar system, trading oil with China and Russia in alternative currencies, undermining the Western banking elite.
* Iran supports regional resistance movements that challenge Israel’s power – Groups like Hezbollah and Syria under the late Basher al-Assad have opposed Israeli and Western hegemony, threatening key geopolitical interests.
From Sanctions to War: The Economic Motive Behind the Conflict
For decades, Israel has lobbied relentlessly for sanctions, sabotage, and military action against Iran. It’s no coincidence that Iran’s oil industry has been the target of economic warfare, cyberattacks (like the Stuxnet virus), and political destabilization efforts. Each of these actions serves to weaken Iran’s ability to operate independently of Western banking and corporate interests.
Conclusion: Oil, Money, and Power—The True Cause of Israel’s Iran Policy
While the mainstream narrative presents Israel’s hostility toward Iran as a matter of “security,” the deeper truth is that it is about financial and resource control. Iran’s nationalization of Rothschild-linked oil assets—first under Mossadegh and then definitively under the 1979 Revolution—made it an enemy of the global banking elite. Israel, as a key enforcer of Western financial and energy interests in the Middle East, has been at the forefront of efforts to overthrow Iran’s independent government ever since.
The push for regime change in Iran is not about ideology or nuclear weapons—it’s about who controls the world’s oil, and by extension, the global financial system. Iran’s defiance of the Rothschild-linked oil empire remains the real reason why Israel and its Western allies are obsessed with bringing down the Iranian government.
But Wait! Can Modern Israelis themselves, even be the Hebrews of the Old Testament?
Very many are not theists, they’re agnostic or atheistic. Those who are “theists” are not monotheists, they know almost nothing about the Torah, their remote ancestors first, lost the temple, the priesthood and sacrifices capable of remitting sin, in 70 AD, but upon returning from the Babylonian Exile, they had adopted strange non-Hebrew beliefs and practices, and after their final explulsion from Palestine, they formulated a new religion, Talmudic Judaism ("The Talmud Permits what the Torah Does Not"), which, along with the Kabbala, prompts them to worship pairs of mating male and female deities. This is in “Oddities of the Jewish Religion“, about Israel Shahak’s “Jewish History, Jewish Religion: The Weight of Three Thousand Years“.
So apparently, the Israelis who cite a curse against by-now imaginary descendants of ancient Amaekites, are not themselves even Hebrews capable of casting the curse, by any remote stretch of the imagination.
