Ex-US Ambassador: Iranian regime intends to incorporate Iraq, Syria and Lebanon
Former U.S. Ambassador to Morocco and White House Middle East Adviser, Marc Ginsberg, writes in the Huffington Post (The World Post) that the Iranian regime’s plan is to destabilize Iraq.
Ambassador Ginsberg argues that Iran’s regime has become more
immoderate following the nuclear agreement last July: "The record of
meddlesome, terror-laden interference throughout the Middle East by Tehran is
growing longer by the day." In addition, he argues, the regime’s current
President Hassan Rouhani is hanging more people than the "notorious Ahmadinejad."The list of Iranian threats to international
security is long: increased funding of Hezbollah and Hamas; a proxy war in
Yemen against the U.S. and Saudi-backed government; ballistic missile tests in
violation of existing Security Council resolutions; and "massively"
deploying the Revolutionary Guard inside Syria to defend Assad. However, for
Ginsberg, the focus of his main concern is Iranian action in Iraq.For the mere ten-year postponement of an
Iranian nuclear weapon, Ginsberg believes the West has paid an unconscionable
price. In defending that deal, decision-makers are logically forced to turn a
blind eye to the excesses of the regime, or, worse, defend it. The following is
typical of administration rationalisations, he argues: "the regime...will
inevitably bend to the winds of globalization and confront the exigencies
required of a “proper” nation state."Ginsberg illustrates the trap into which the
West has been driven by the nuclear deal. The U.S. Secretary of State has
recently commented that Iran’s presence in Iraq could be “helpful” to American
attempts to combat ISIS. However, U.S. commanders "stationed on the ground
in both the battles to liberate Falluja and Ramadi from ISIS forces have
expressed alarm that rogue Iranian-commanded Shiite militias (aka The Popular
Mobilization Units (PMUs)) are moving into these towns after their liberation
and committing sectarian abuses against Sunnis, thus making refugee and
displaced persons more sympathetic to the remnants of ISIS operatives in the
region." Ginsberg also points out The New York Times' recent report that a
Shiite militia leader was videoed "rallying his men with a message of
revenge against the imprisoned civilians of Falluja, whom they accuse of being
sympathizers of ISIS."In addition, Iran’s regime is using the cover
afforded by ISIS atrocities to kill its opponents: "Iran-backed Shiite
militiamen (often with the connivance of the Iraqi leadership) have used the
growing chaos inside Iraq to launch a series of attacks against Iranian
adversaries in Iraq, including a heinous attack...against innocent civilian
Iranian dissidents imprisoned against their will at Camp Liberty."
Wounding more than 40, "this attack, as previous ones on Camp Liberty, is
the work of Iranian controlled forces operating virtually at will, both
covertly and overtly in Iraq," writes Ginsberg.
While Iran might present itself as the "savior of the truncated Iraqi
state," this is "deviousness:" The Iranian regime does not mean
to be "helpful" to the West, he argues. Ginsberg continues, "the
awful, painstaking battles being waged to liberate Iraqi territory from ISIS
are intended eventually by Iran to gain more control north of Baghdad at the
expense of Iraqi sectarian reconciliation and U.S. national security interest."
"Incorporating Iraq and Syria (as well as Lebanon) into a Shiite Crescent
under the thumb of Tehran is so evident it’s as if the Ayatollah has hung out a
neon light declaring it so," he declares.
Ginsberg implies that we have ISIS because we first had the Iranian regime's
"loathsome" meddling - the purposeful creation of instability by
terror - in Iraq and Syria.
There is a battle of wills in train - both between the regime and its people
and between Tehran and the West. In the latter contest, Ginsberg believes Obama
has already capitulated, leaving the U.S. without a regional strategy and,
worse, abandoning the field to the Iranian regime. http://www.ncr-iran.org/en/news/iran-resistance/20667-ex-us-ambassador-iranian-regime-intends-to-incorporate-iraq-syria-and-lebanon

| Maryam Rajavi |
In three
days' time, the world will witness the largest annual gathering of Iranian
exiles in Le Bourget, Paris, with Maryam Rajavi as the keynote speaker.
Iranians
of all walks of life as well as hundreds of politicians and personalities from
five continents will converge in Le Bourget to declare their support for MaryamRajavi, the Iranian Resistance and their struggle to overthrow the regime
ruling Iran and establish freedom and democracy in their country. But who is
Maryam Rajavi?
Maryam
Rajavi, a devout Muslim woman, has led the opposition to Tehran's
fundamentalist regime for the past three decades. Maryam Rajavi espouses a
tolerant and democratic interpretation of Islam and calls for unity of all
democratic forces to confront terrorism and extremism emanating from the
clerical regime in Iran, as the most dangerous threat of our time to global
peace and security.
Maryam
Rajavi's ten-point plan offers a democratic alternative to the ongoing savagery
of the ruling regime in Iran.
Maryam
Rajavi calls for abolition of the death penalty, separation of the Mosque and
State, and equal participation of women in political leadership. Maryam Rajavi
also calls for a non-nuclear Iran that lives in peaceful coexistence with its
neighbors.
Maryam
Rajavi believes that women's equality is essential to democratic progress in
today's world, in any country and in any organization. So, it was all the more
essential to the struggle against the misogynous fundamentalist extremists
ruling Iran.
One of
the major achievements of Maryam Rajavi has been the involvement of the
Resistance's women in the most crucial positions of responsibility in the
movement. The idea of women's equal participation in political leadership,
economic and management roles, has been realized in Maryam Rajavi's movement.
This is especially important because this phenomenon is not limited to a few
talented and intelligent women, but embraces a generation of women with diverse
backgrounds.
Maryam
Rajavi's achievement was made possible by rejection of all forms of
discrimination against women in her movement and providing a just and equal
opportunity for everyone, proving the fact that any human being can exercise
her/his talents and intelligence once given an equal opportunity for education
and occupation.
Maryam
Rajavi is recognized for her strength, resolve and leadership qualities. Maryam
Rajavi is admired for her tireless leadership and struggle against the ruthless
mullahs of Iran. Maryam Rajavi has demonstrated amazing strength in the face of
numerous difficulties facing her movement.
Maryam
Rajavi's motto is we can and we must. Maryam Rajavi believes that by being
realistic, devoting enough energy and time to any task, human beings can decide
their own fate and break through any impasse. That is how Maryam Rajavi has
succeeded in leading her movement through a tortuous path over the years,
towards imminent victory.
Iranians
believe that with Maryam Rajavi pledging regime change in Iran, they would
enjoy their inalienable, equal human rights in a free Iran.
