A New Year, some shocking news: Two Items of note.
Iranian leader killed in Baghdad
Big news today, the U.S. killing of top Iranian special forces leader in Baghdad, and his Iraqi associates. Wait, what? Wow, bolt out of the blue, right?
Maybe, maybe not.
I'm providing no links; this is all over the Internet.
Many expect full-scale war, while others don't think the Iranian regime leadership has the ability to do that, esp now that Kassem
Suleimani, the Iranian al-Quds leader, is dead. Suleimani was a major
player in the Iranian regime, you see, and in its military actions
outside of Iran, a man who was responsible for a whole host of nasty
things in various countries, as in even ballistic missile deployment.
Another man killed was one Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, Suleimani's top Iraqi
associate. Al-Muhandis was founder and leader of Kata’ib
Hizballah, an Iraqi Shia paramilitary group, and was directly involved
in the attack on the U.S. embassy. Of course, De Gaulle once said (I
think it was him) that cemeteries are full of "indispensable men". Maybe
so.
Yet another (indispensable?) associate, one Hadi al-Ameri, whom Obama had once invited to the White House, was arrested yesterday (I guess it was) by US forces in Iraq.
Al-Ameri had led (or was one of the leaders of) the recent attack on
the U.S. embassy in Baghdad. Al-Ameri was also head of the Badr
Organization, a Shia political party and Iranian-officer d militia.
Sure
looks like a liquidation of high-level anti-U.S. people, doesn't it? No
need to have a full-scale war like George W. Bush was talked into when
you can just "headshot" a few leaders and end all the trouble.
Everyone
in the loathsome Islamic Republic regime leadership must be aware of
what this signifies. Certainly, at the very least, they know none of them are safe,
and Donald Trump isn't Jimmy Carter or Barrack Obama. They're breathing
fire an brimstone, the regime leaders are, as one would expect, but
they know they could be taken out at any time. What good does it profit
them to have militias and suicide brigades -- even vast if poorly
trained conscription armies -- when they themselves can be killed
instantly, anywhere?
Of course, the de-masculinized Western leaders
will be in shock. Nothing new about that. (Did everyone see this? Pope Francis tells teens they’re not a ‘disciple of Jesus’ if they try to convert non-believers."
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/does-pope-francis-repudiate-the-great-commission ) Ben Rhodes, a close Obama associate and involved in
Obama's Iranian -- uh -- love fest, is outraged. Rhodes is famous
(infamous) for commenting on how easily it is to manipulate MSM
reporters. (He was right about that!) And Democrat Senator Chris Murphy
has written, "Soleimani [sic] was an enemy of the United States. That’s not a question.
The question is this – as reports suggest, did America just
assassinate, without any congressional authorization, the second most
powerful person in Iran, knowingly setting off a potential massive
regional war?”
1. If Suleimani
was the second most powerful guy, the new second most powerful guy, not
to mention the first, must be underground, in hiding.
2. As for massive regional war, well, they've been having that off and on for millennial The Iraqis and Iranians killed over a half-million of their young men (wasn't it?) during their 1980-1988 war. (That was an interesting war in that it showed how stupid the high-level military leaders in both countries were, and how little they valued the human lives of their miserable subjects.)
2. As for massive regional war, well, they've been having that off and on for millennial The Iraqis and Iranians killed over a half-million of their young men (wasn't it?) during their 1980-1988 war. (That was an interesting war in that it showed how stupid the high-level military leaders in both countries were, and how little they valued the human lives of their miserable subjects.)
3. Congress? Who would trust them for anything?
Also,
the Washington Post called Suleimani "most revered". That's actually
vomit inducing. It was Suleimani who led the IED program to kill U.S.
and Coalition military people. He's responsible for the death and
maiming of thousands of such, and Allah only knows how many of his own
people he's brutally murdered. No doubt he never heard of Matthew 26:52.
Logically,
this was also a serious retaliation against Shia forces in Iraq who
staged the attempted U.S. embassy takeover. Now, it is said that when
one of these staged protests occur, as happened in November 1979 in
Tehran when "students" seized the U.S. embassy there during the feckless
Jimmy Carter presidency, and then recently in Baghdad, the way to deal
with it is not hand wringing and surrender, but "headshots" of the guys
running the show. Drop them, and the curtain falls. (It's not necessary,
in other words, to solve the problem the way Napoleon solved the
problem of Parisian Revolutionary mobs: he turned the cannons on them.)
But if such precision is not possible, give headshots to the first
"protesters" over the wall. That ends such "events" promptly; indeed,
with celerity. (As in Kent State, "back in the day.") This killing of
Suleimani & Co. (and also arrest of others) is the equivalent of
that, on a different, much higher, level.
So, what is all this really about? We have only speculation at the moment, but FWIW, the initial word is that Kassem Suleimani and friends were in Baghdad to run a coup d'état against the current Iraqi regime. This
might be true, it might not. Whether there's any validity to that
report, certainly it is obvious, though, that this "culling of the
bulls" while there's been
an ongoing, nation-wide protest in Iran against the hated and loathed
regime, is an extremely significant event. It has got the
attention of every leader in the violent Mid-East, that's for sure. News
has spread through Iran itself, and Iranians online are cheering the
event (while Iranian leaders fiercely vow vengeance, of course). Are we
witnessing the beginning of the fall of the Islamic Republic? Was this
Trump's plan when in strengthened sanctions against Iran, thus causing
the domestic shortages that sparked the newest uprising?
We'll learn more as things develop, obviously. Otherwise,
we've just got speculation. But a major player in the Iranian regime's
military is now dead. Major Iraqi associates of Iran are dead or
arrested. That has to weaken the regime significantly. How far would
Lenin have gotten without Trotsky? This is especially true in the
Mid-East where you have a few leaders and a lot of ignorant, low-level
cannon fodder following them.
One
final possibility: this is an attempt by the U.S. government "Deep
State" to take out Trump because one of his main campaign promises was
to keep us out of such foreign war imbroglios. Many pro-Trump people
want us totally out of the Mid-East (and the UN, too). This is quite
possible, but we'll have to see.
Impeachment Development
The
other big news, however, is an item you need not speculate about at
all. I haven't written much of anything on Trump's impeachment because
I've been waiting for "the other shoe to drop;" i.e., this isn't about
impeachment, but rather accessing the Mueller Team's opposition research
on Trump. Huh? Yeah, the whole odd-ball impeachment thing is a joke-show, but actually it is cover for something else.
While
it was up and running, the Mueller Team (Mueller not having too much to
do about any of it except serve as a quasi-respected figurehead, and
who lost all respect after his embarrassing Congressional testimony) was
using grand jury testimony to dig up all sorts of non-Russia hoax
personal dirt of Donald Trump and his family as "oppo research" to run
against him in 2020. Yes, tons and tons of info was garnered by
Democrat lawyers and activists against Trump over the two-year period
the Mueller investigation went on. That info is of course extremely
valuable to the Democrats. Now that Trump has been impeached, the
Democrats have filed for the courts to release it, "because we need this
information now that Trump is impeached."
Actually,
right after the impeachment vote, a week or so ago, the House Dems went
to the courts (DC Court of Appeals) with this, and now, today, they'll
make oral arguments before the court why this info needs released to
them. THIS IS WHY THEY DIDN'T SENT THE ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT
IMMEDIATELY TO THE SENATE. Clearly, all this was "in the works" for some
time before now.
If
the court rules in their favor, the Dept of Justice will appeal it to
the full DC appeals court, and if that full court approves the
Democrats' request, it'll go to the Supreme Court. But none of that
really matters. The Democrats have the info now, and have had it
through the impeachment sham. If they don't get official permission to
mine it, they'll leak it to their allies in the press.
It's what they do.
For the full story of all this, check out:
And that's about all there is to say to that.
I will note that this whole Russia Collusion hoax was similar: it wasn't about Trump being in cahoots with Putin. Everyone involved knew that wasn't true.
As Doug Wead, presidential historian, said the other day, every
intelligence service in the world knew that Russia story was untrue
within 24 hours of it becoming public. https://theunionjournal.com/every-foreign-intelligence-service-knew-within-24-hours-trump-russia-collusion-was-bogus-story-video/
And as 22-year FBI veteran Frank Watt wrote here: https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/12/two_possibilities_in_trump_wiretapping_and_neither_is_good.html
there's
no way on Earth that such a series of investigations and wiretaps and
so on that led up to "Crossfire Hurricane" (the investigation of the
president) and "CH" itself, could have happened without multi-level
knowledge and approval in the FBI and DOJ, and in the Obama White House.
(Read Watt's article; it is excellent.)
Now,
if a 22-year FBI veteran can write so plainly about what happened, you
know full well that Attorney General William Barr knows it too, as does
John Durham, U.S. attorney for Connecticut, whom Barr charged with
investigating it. If serious indictments of many high-level people don't
happen in a few months, wow, NO ONE is going to believe anything out of the U.S. government again (as in why we kill certain terrorists, as happened in Baghdad).
But
my point is that just as Trump's impeachment is about getting "oppo
research" on Trump as opposed to the officially stated reasons for it,
so the Russia Collusion hoax was to cover up the Obama Administration's
long term, multi-year plundering of the NSA archives and data for
political opposition research. That was what the then NSA
Director, Admiral Mike Rogers discovered during 2016 and why he went and
reported it to Donald Trump when Trump was president elect.
If
you don't know this story about Admiral Rogers -- who relinquished the
NSA command in May 2018 and retired a month later, wow, you really don't
know what's been going on. He's the real hero in all this mess, the
true "whistle blower", and the word is -- "scuttlebutt" to use an old
Navy term -- that Rogers has been working with John Durham.
So,
two big news items today. "Never a dull moment, really." One we can
only speculate about, and the other we should all know about in cold,
clear detail.
Happy New Year,
An Préachán
