Iran Power Politics:

After failed Coup, now they demand Referendum! 

- Dr. Abdul Ruff Colachal

Even after the rout of the coup attempts to remove President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad from power, both west and opposition have not given up nefarious efforts to destabilize Iran and halt the anti-Islamic “democracy reforms” in the country. USA and NATO are desperate to occupy Iran for its further terror war purposes in Arab world.

Yes, the Western terror world has grown deadly frustrated and disappointed with the way their strategies get fizzled out in Islamic Iran one by one as the people are supporting the Iranian president and Islamic Iran even they also enjoy the scenes on Tehran streets being created by the west inspired opposition “reformists”.  Iran has indeed taught initial lessons to the terror war mongers of USA and Israel desperately wanting to acquire Iranian resources and share the booty. But soon after Lebanon victory with help of the Christians who decide the fate of Lebanese there, as the Indonesians are being managed by non-Muslims close to the western terror forces, the West found themselves caught by the international community for the US-UK media misadventure in Iran . The western embassies in Tehran are still busy inciting violence in Islamic Iran while their media insult Islam as a terror organization.

At the outset one important issue needs to be restated right here. The call for updating the Holy Quran and adopting the western capitalist corrupt, profit culture has been very vocal for quite some time and reform is the coin being skillfully employed by the global anti-Islamic nations especially in the Western hemisphere that kills Muslims by invading Islamic nations on fictitious pretexts. Western leaders and media hawks, from UK to France and USA to Italy have been, for quite some time, to coerce global Muslim to feel bad about their religion and practices and provoke them to shed Islamic way of life and imbibe western and anti-Islamic mode of culture and behavior. Like others, Muslims also fight for political at any cost power and also high profits by any means. They see Islamic law or Sharia' a threat or hindrance to their advancing personal agenda by using fellow Muslims in a "democratic" way. By reform the “progressive” elements in Iran seem to mean reform of the Holy Quran. This is clearly absurd, the state the least. Even in English media of Arab world, controlled by anti-Islamic nations, including Israel and India , some funny Muslims make similar pleas to appease the GSTs (Global State Terrorists).

Terror wars in Islamic world demonstrate how hollow and silly the western aggressive powers are and how they have fooled heir own people by getting their votes to pursue terror wars in the name of false “security” but it is funny they call Iran’s poll fraud. Judging from global practices of polls and campaigns, President Ahmadinejad has won the poll for the second time to pursue the policies of Islamic Iran as his predecessors have done before. Ayatollah Khamenei has already declared the elections, which the incumbent, President Ahmadinejad, won by a landslide, as valid. But West is still eager to destabilize Islamic Iran. Fueled by the western powers and media and statements of anti-Islamic leaders in the west, the opposition supporters took to the streets upon the announcement of poll results because they all though Lebanon would repeat itself in Iran . The west was upset and opposition protested against what they saw as “mass fraud”. At least 20 people are believed to have died in the clashes thanks of opposition mischief. But the opposition and western media are still not satisfied with the toll of mere 20 people and they want to witness an Iraqi type blood batch in Teheran. Iranian stat has duty to protect the people from the nefarious designs for the opposition blood thirsty leaders.

In the sermon at Tehran University, an important pro-reform figure former president Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani also called for all those detained since the elections to be released. His words - broadcast live on state radio - brought thousands back out onto the streets, the first public opposition demonstration for more than a week. There were more public protests last week after a sermon by another, current Expediency Council head Rafsanjani who wants to be free from controversies, but was tactfully drawn into them by the coup leaders. Emboldened by Rafsanjani's support for the opposition in a Friday prayer sermon last week, a leading reformist, former President Mohammad Khatami, called for a referendum to rule whether Ahmadinejad's government is legitimate and for a neutral body to oversee the vote.  Khatami accused hard-liners of undermining “democracy” and challenging the foundations of the Islamic Republic, which in theory is supposed to meld a democratic system with a theocracy carried out by clerical rule.

The key trouble shooter is west supported Mir Mousavi the one who supports the global state terrorism of the US-led west, has continued to issue statements opposing the election result, saying detention of protesters would not end opposition. Mousavi said it was wrong to accuse those detained after the protests to plots by foreign powers. "Isn't it an insult to 40 million voters... linking detainees to foreign countries? But UK is having problem in securing the plot agents from Iranaian custody. Mousavi and his camp claim Ahmadinejad's win was fraudulent and that the new government he is to form next month will be illegitimate. Mousavi insists that the vote was rigged and says the government led by Ahmadinejad is "illegitimate" and, conversely, only he has the legitimacy to rule Iran because he has the western support.  The statement was a clear challenge to the authority of Khamenei, Iran’s most powerful figure whose endorsement of President Ahmadinejad's landslide victory was meant to be the final word on the fairness of the June 12 poll.

A group of “reformist” mullah clerics led by Khatami, a former president, seeking close profitable links with anti-Islamic world said a referendum was essential to restore public confidence. Khatami said there was no alternative to having a referendum, which he called for an independent body to carry out. Khatami praised the sermon on Friday, by former president Rafsanjani, who said the government had lost the trust of millions in Iran. He suggested that an impartial body such as the Expediency Council should hold the referendum and pledged that his political supporters would respect the result whatever it was.  Rafsanjani is for a consensus between “reformists and conservatives” on resolving the crisis were the "minimum requirement for getting out of the current situation.

But Islamists are not conservatives. Sensing danger to the Iran sovereignty from war mongers and their local supporters, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addressed “Iran’s elite" and warned them to be cautious in the positions they take on the turmoil that has shaken the country since the disputed presidential election on June. He said that hurting Iran’s security was "the biggest vice," adding that "anybody who drives the society toward insecurity and disorder is a hated person in the view of the Iranian nation, whoever he is." Khamenei did not mention any names, but the comments reported on state radio were clearly directed at Mir Hossein Mousavi.

Iran's supreme leader normally mediates above the political fray, but backed Ahmadinejad's victory soon after the poll while reformists cried foul and said the result was rigged. He told politicians not to disturb the country's security in a strong warning to the opposition to back down after one of its top figures called for a referendum on the government. Khameini has backed the official results from the presidential election, which saw Ahmadinejad returned with a huge majority. Mousavi's remarks were published shortly after Khameini warned “Iran’s elite" against harming the country's security. "Anyone, no matter their rank or title, will be detested by the people if they lead our society towards insecurity," he said in a speech carried on state television. "Our leaders must be vigilant. Any word or action which helps the enemies will be contrary to the interests of our people."

Meanwhile, Ahmadinejad has made efforts to reconcile with opposition by appointing one of them Esfandiar Rahim Mashaie as vice president, but he has rejected the offer, perhaps expected by the establishment. Opposition does not want any conciliation, but removal of the President. Since the West inspired opposition in Pakistan could get Musharraf removed with lawyers and judges coming to street against him, the Iranian opposition thinks Ahmadinejad also could be removed by similar tactics. The opposition and the judiciary people fought only against their own man, Musharraf but not against the occupying US terror forces that kill innocent Pakistani Muslims with drones. That is fate of Muslims in Islamic world.  Known for his provocative anti-US and Israel rhetoric in the past, Ahmadinejad is being projected by the west and opposition as a threat to Iran’s security which is unjust and unwise. USA wants to isolate Iran not only among the western powers and Russia, but even in the Islamic world. Opposition is trying contributing to further isolating Iran in the international community so that GSTs could terror attack Iran conveniently.  

In Pakistan the politicians and their allies sought to snatch power from military and now they increase their wealth at home and abroad from all “sources”. The new rulers have invited the NATO terror forces to Jinnah’s soil to kill Pakistanis on payment basis; in Iran also the opposition seeks similar scenario with NATO state terrorists freely and lavishly killing the Iranians and the “reform” leaders pocketing the money to be paid by the then occupiers for shelving the nuclear program. President Ahmadinejad does not require that blood-stained US money for deceiving his people. Perhaps, more awful, they would like to revise Holy Quran to obtain more favors and coverge from the West.

Contemporary Iran shows how greedy the Muslims of all sects could be and they fall prey to the anti-Islamic western state terrorists as the Iraqis before them did foolishly. Western cowards know Iranians also could be easily purchased by paying some advance amount. The former President of Iran, Mohammad Khatami, has called for a referendum on the legitimacy of the government, following June's “disputed” elections. Khatami, said millions of Iranians apart from the anti-Islamic global nations, had lost faith in the electoral process. 

Former President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani has rekindled the turmoil by declaring the Islamic Republic in crisis and said there were doubts about the election result. Rafsanjani is now fighting for political survival because Khamenei ignored pleas to oppose Ahmadinejad after he accused the former president Rafsanjani of corruption. Rafsanjani accused hard-liners of undermining the republicanism of the system and ignoring people's vote. Opposition does not trust the people’s verdict in the first place. Khatami, whose 1997-2005 presidency saw a thaw in the Islamic republic's relations with the West, hit out at the conduct of the June 12 vote that saw Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, his strong and hardline successor, returned to power against all opposition-cum-foreign gimmicks.  

What sort of “reforms” the opposition and western powers want in Islamic Iran? Do they want to remove Sharia’ from Islamic Iran and destroy mosques there as Hindus do in India and terror forces led by USA did in those nations that are now under their terror occupation?   Even after burning their dirty fingers in Iran, the western powers especially USA, UK and France are still interfering the internal affairs of Islamic Iran by using the opposition to prolong the coup attempt so that the anti-Islamic powers can bully Iran.  The opposition’s battle within Iran's clerical establishment poses an unprecedented challenge to the authority of Khamenei who came to power in 1989.The election dispute has further strained ties between Iran and the West, already at odds over Tehran's nuclear program, with Western powers criticizing the crackdown. Iran’s government accused them of plotting the overthrow of the Islamic Republic.  

That the Iranian opposition leaders who have tasted power in Tehran and know how the system operates in Islamic Iran could challenge the supreme Leader of Shiite Muslims could be an important victory of the anti-Islamic forces operating around the world. That the opposition that has criticized the system and leaders would be under the control of the west is a undeniable fact. Muslims are cheapo and cheaply available for maligning Islam and Sharia’ is the message the western media derive form the opposition gimmicks in Iran. West has a chip in Rafsanjani, a veteran insider who heads a body that can in theory dismiss the supreme leader, who partly burned his fingers along with others who are determined to dethrone undemocratically a president and introduce western culture and military to Iranian society.  The opposition has continued pushing its campaign against Ahmadinejad. In Rafsanjani, the opposition has gained a powerful proponent within the clerical leadership that stands more powerful than the elected government.

 Illegal nuclear Israel has been flexing its military muscle around Islamic Iran the same way as Dictator Bush had done by sending military vessels to threaten Iran to abandon nuclear program. The great Jewish idea is to presuppose this as preparation for a possible attack on Iran. Recently, Israel has moved two of its Saar Missile Class warships through the Suez Canal. All this Zionist Naval deployment into the Red Sea can force Tehran to make swift retaliation in the form of bloc king the Israeli military might. But Iran is well equipped and prepared for any misadventures form USA or its sworn strategic devils and swines. For the last three years both USA and Israel have been making all loud dirty tricks to bully Islamic Iran. Fascist Israel cannot pretend so ignorant of Iranian preparations.

 It is obnoxious that the nuclear powers threaten Iran with punitive measures if it does not give up its legitimate efforts for nukes to defend itself from fascist Israel and roguish USA. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the US was still offering engagement to Iran but warned that the “nuclear clock was ticking”. What is necessary is defense of Arab world form roguish powers. Mrs. Clinton says Washington is prepared to bolster the defence of its Gulf allies if Iran develops a nuclear weapons program. Clinton said if the US extended a “defence umbrella” over the region, it was unlikely that Iran would be any stronger or safer having a weapon.   

Western Axis of Evils and devils just don’t let Muslims live peacefully. It is shameful that opposition of Islamic Iran seeks anti-Islamic nations to destabilize their nation. When the world is still kept at dark about the true intensions of the NATO invasion of Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan- though anti-Islamism and energy resources dominate the agenda – the intent of the Jewish lobbyists and Neocon strategists asking the Obama administration to invade Iran also, rather quickly, sounds fully fanatic and exposes the western agenda. No American now believes that one Osama did every thing on Sept 11 and it was not an internal misadventure to fix the Arab nations.  But they don’t speak out fearing tortures by the Pentagon-CIA combine.

One does not know why the western state terror organizations are still worried about Ahmadinejad when they could live with leaders of worst varieties around the world. West say Muslims are terrorists and the world believed and now they say Iranian poll was rigged and international community does not trust the west any more. The Iranian opposition, including Khatami and the defeated presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi, continued to say the election was rigged while they don’t consider worthwhile questioning the “democratic polls” elsewhere. They say the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, should organize a referendum. But why?

Ahmadinejad’s re-election with overwhelming majority is an indisputable fact and if the opposition leader and their foreign masters want a referendum to prove the legitimacy of an elected president, then a suitable international law has to be made and first be implemented in Western shame “democracies”. No country can afford holding election on regular basis one after another for economic and other reasons including nuisance. True nowhere the elections are truly free and fair and in the USA corruption begins with poll campaigns. Unfortunately, the opposition now trusts only the Western powers and their media mischief to divide Iranians and destabilize Islamic republic. If Khatami or Rafsanjani demands a referendum which they never did it for themselves, then, there should be a counter-argument as well. That is, if Ahmadinejad wins the referendum - which obviously he will - the opposition leaders who demand it should go the western countries to learn democracy and reform plus state terrorisms and profit making rules for 5 years before they return to Islamic Iran. They can then talk about non-Mass fraud as well.
