Irans'Mein Kampf

Actions speak louder than words!

In 1924, while imprisoned at Landsberg Prison in Germany following his failed Beer Hall Putsch, Adolf Hitler began writing Mein Kampf, which translates to “My Struggle” in English. Published in 1925, it laid out in great detail his grievances against society as a whole, as well as his political views, and his plans for Germany should he ever gain power over the nation. Included in that were his virulent anti-semitic viewpoints.

Unfortunately, due to the war weariness after World War I, most European leaders didn’t pay enough attention to what he laid out, which was in effect his personal manifesto. Because of that fact, World War II occurred, and over 75 million people died in the conflict, with millions more wounded or displaced from their homes.

In the same way, Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong wrote of their plans before they were able to implement them, and hundreds of millions paid the ultimate price for their political leaders’ failing to listen to what the future dictators were saying. It is happening again in Iran, and the results could be even more disastrous.

Muhammad and his successors laid out in the Quran and later religious texts what Islam was, as well as its ultimate goals. Quite simply, that is a worldwide Caliphate, with Islam as virtually the only belief system allowed under Sharia Law. All people must be made to submit to this concept or be killed. It’s as simple as that.

Over the millennia, there have been many death cults, but none quite so virulent as the “Twelver” faction of Shia Islam. That is what took over Iran in 1979, and has held its population in an iron grip ever since. Although the Iranian Mullahs’ ultimate goal is worldwide domination, and then a Shia-style Gotterdämmerung end of the world scenario, their primary enemies have always been the United States and Israel, the “Great“ and “Little” Satan of their religious rhetoric.

From the very beginning, the leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran have led crowds in shouting ‘DEATH TO AMERICA’ and ‘DEATH TO ISRAEL!” They mean it, and we had better not forget it. This is THEIR Mein Kampf, and we ignore that fact at our peril.

Now, after making a good start in bringing Iran’s outlaw regime to an end, inexplicably, Trump seems to be willing to allow something less than Iranian unconditional surrender, and a chance for Iranians to once again join the community of nations as something other than an autocratic bully—a big mistake in my opinion.

To think that the Mullahs and the IRGC will live up to a negotiated “deal” to give up their aspirations to obtain nuclear weapons is foolish in the extreme. They are, and always have been, pathological liars. After all, Islam allows its adherents to lie if it is in the cause of protecting or advancing its ideology. They are buying time, hoping the Democrats will once again take over our government and bow to the will of Shia Islam.

We promised the Iranian protestors that “Help is on the way!” To turn our backs on them now and leave them to the not-so-tender mercies of the IRGC thugs would be a disgrace equivalent to our withdrawal from Afghanistan and South Vietnam. Iranian oil will once again flow to Communist Cuba, North Korea, and China. The United States will no longer be considered a reliable ally when the chips are down, and America will not be great again. A tragedy of enormous proportions.

We must believe what they said and did in the past, not what they are trying to convince us they will do in the future. Cheaters cheat, and liars lie, and there is no greater example of that statement than the Islamic Republic of Iran.
