At last the Iranian elections are over, resulting in landmark victory for President Ahmedinejad, who took over 64 percent of the popular vote followed by the “reformist” Mir Hussain Mousavi. Mousavi got 36 percent vote, mostly from the urban capitalist class.
As the results started pouring in from different constituencies indicating Ahmedinejad’s victory, Mousavi’s supporters doubted their authenticity and took to the streets accusing the government of rigging.
Many people have died and injured during the post-election riots, while clashes between the supporters of the two leaders are rampant. It seems the clandestine manipulation of Iranian Diaspora and CIA/NSA espionage approved by the former US president George W Bush is working now. G. W. Bush had authorized covert CIA operations to foment socio-political instability in Iran. But the Supreme Leader of Iran and head of the Guardian Council Ayatollah Ali Khomenei has expressed complete confidence in the electoral process and asked the protesters to exercise restraint or face the consequences, as reported by Al-Jazeera TV from Tehran
Khomenei has offered the protestors recount to remove their apprehensions and establish their confidence in the election process. The respective western governments, which had been keeping a vigilant eye on the Iranian election process, have summoned the Iranian ambassadors to mark their protest against the alleged rigging.
Since the Iranian supreme leader has pledged recount and to do whatever necessary to win back the voters’ confidence, the protests seem part of an organized western campaign to bring about instability in Iran. The western countries’ hue and cry about the Iranian election results is an extension and climax of Bush’s plan launched in May 2007 when he signed a secret CIA document to weaken Iran.
Israel would be preparing for an aerial attack on the Iranian nuclear installations amidst a blizzard of collusion designed against a stable country. A little trawl through the American history shows that they have been working as the merchants of hatred, who deal in conspiracy and remorselessly believe in espionage of all types to serve their ends.
Why only American journalists are held for spying? And why America is spreading hatred through the expatriates- turned-Americans round the globe? Why only revulsion, death, espionage, terror and murder are a brand of the American package deals?
The recent Iranian election results have posed two major problems to the western media and Washington. First, they were expecting Mousavi’s win, who represents the affluent and liberal [westernized] class, with its tentacles spread among the Iranian Diaspora across the globe. This Diaspora, which mostly took its birth with the 1980’s Islamic revolution, has a clear-cut ideological dimension blended with rich Iranian heritage, Islamic identity and peculiar social values in contrast to the western street culture.
With its native body and western soul, this westernized Iranian Diaspora was in search of an arch pillar for its existence in Iran. Every time elections are held in Iran, a part of it builds up a host of expectations at the instigation of western masters to live a westernized life. Second, since the US is engaged in a war in two neighboring countries of Iran, the American administration is keen to engage Iran through formation of a contact group containing countries like China, Russia and India to get hold of its waning control in Afghanistan and manipulation of Hezbollah in Lebanon and Shiite factions in Iraq.
The US feels that without engaging Iran through diplomatic means, it can’t achieve its strategic objectives. The Iranian results have brought utter disappointment to the US because it would be almighty difficult for its policy-makers to soften the hard-line stance of the administration of Ahmedinejad, who rubbishes the Holocaust as mere propaganda and believes in Israel’s elimination from the world map.
On the other hand, Mousavi, who believes in civil liberties and ideological moderation, has more links with Iranian Diaspora in the US, Europe and other parts of the world. Above all, they believe in capitalist/western culture and “normalization” of relations with the West, especially America, even at the cost of the Iranian nuclear program, which, the West sees as the biggest threat to the region and world at large.
The problem bothering the US and the West is not the Iranian nuclear program but their collective weakness to blackmail Iran and to formulate “independent” policies in the Middle East while the Iranian nuclear threat exists.
The Israeli agenda of a greater Israel, dominating the whole Middle East with its ever expending boundaries, feels uncomfortable with the existence of a nuclear Iran, especially when it supports Hezbollah in the next door Lebanon and controls [through Shiite population] the oil-rich resources of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and remains a potential threat to it at strategic, political and economical levels.
President Ahmedinejad has his roots among the Iranian masses through his excellent economic policies, political boldness and an independent foreign policy conforming to the wishes of the Iranian people. He did a wonderful job at the microeconomic level when he helped the farmers and small industry through soft and easy interest-free loans based upon Islamic banking system.
His policies have not only been hailed by the urban area people, but also the countryside where the real Iranian small industry network is based. Ahmedinejad patronized the carpet industry of Iran that boosted the income of household workers having a special role in the development of Iranian carpet industry.
On the contrary, in his election campaign Mousavi concentrated on undoing subsidies and development of macro industries through tax cuts that favored the major investors having import/export links with the western countries. His agenda simply means favoring the capitalists and urban-based major investors with a modest number of small industry investors forming the majority of Iranian industry and economic infrastructure.
Above all, Mousavi is against the Iranian stand on its nuclear program, which though focused on peaceful purposes of nuclear energy, has the capability to enrich weapon-grade uranium, if need be. It is a bitter truth that Iran is located in the Middle East in an area on the top of a volcano that can erupt if not deterred by the existence of nuclear weapons.
If the US wants a strategic balance in the area, it can achieve it by denuclearizing Israel or pursuing a democratic policy whereby the two countries are allowed to keep their nuclear deterrence. What Mousavi wants is not a capitalistic economy but an open window through which the West and America can infiltrate Iran and build up a CIA network to ultimately destroy Iran’s strategic assets. Not only this, but also introduction of chaos, devastation and anarchy in Iran is not possible without direct interference of the western espionage apparatus.
The West and the US don’t believe in democracy instead they want governments which allow western economic, political and strategic control in their respective countries. And these governments could be put in place through the ballot box hocus pocus or a military coup.
According to Daily Telegraph (Tim Shipman 27 May 2007) former president Bush allowed “Black Ops” or covert CIA operations inside Iran that was harshly intrigued by these acts of American espionage. Peter Symonds (25 May 2007) of ABC news, further consolidated the reports by writing that Bush signed “Non-lethal presidential findings” to spread anarchy and instability inside Iran. President Bush allowed CIA to unleash a massive campaign of propaganda and disinformation about Iran’s currency and financial transaction as a way to destabilize it.
According to ‘USA TODAY” (28 May 2007) Iran summoned Swiss ambassador in Tehran to launch a formal protest against American espionage activities in its territory. Apart from this, CIA sent secret communication equipment inside Iran through Diaspora Iranians to maintain communication with the CIA, bypassing Iranian communication jamming apparatus.
Just recently, Iran arrested an Iranian American journalist Roxana Saberi (American version of Rukhsana) for allegedly secretly copying important Iranian documents while working as an ‘Interpreter’ in the Iran’s Guardian Council.
The copied documents were meant to be handed over to CIA on her way back to the US. Similar accusations have been leveled against American journalists in North Korea where two of them have been arrested for spying. These are the journalistic norms and values harbored by Americans throughout the world where they are known for spying, espionage, cheating, and deceit.
In a recent demonstration of terrorism, CIA sponsored a bomb blast in a mosque in the Iranian province of Zahidan, killing more than 30 worshippers and wounding many. Ayatullah Khomenei held Jindullah, a Pakistan-based US-sponsored Sunni organization, responsible for the bombing, but he was careful in condemnation lest it should hurt the feelings of Pakistan.
The NSA and CIA are also sponsoring Turkistan Islamic Movement based in FATA and Jindullah in Balochistan. The purpose is to spoil the relationship of Pakistan with the two friendly countries though Pakistan can’t even think of supporting the miscreants, who are using Pakistani territory to sell the idea that they are supported by Pakistan.
Turkistan Islamic Movement is an alleged freedom movement of Chinese Muslims, which has no support among the Chinese Muslims because they have full religious freedom. The CIA has created an exile “Muslim” government of Chinese Muslims in the form of TIM. I think this is part of PSYOP against Pakistan, China and Iran. The reason is simple: to sabotage any possibility of formation of a regional block against the US and to impede the trust building process among the countries in the region.
