On November 24, at 4:15 a.m. Paris time, President Barack Obama announced an agreement reached with the Iranian regime on nuclear issue calling it a halt to the Iranian nuclear program.
The agreement was of course a retreat by the mullah’s regime pressed by international sanctions as well as nuclear revelations of the Iranian Resistance and domestic isolation of the regime during the past three decades.
International sanctions brought the regime’s economy to a serious bankruptcy. Iranian Resistance’s repeated revelations, three of which was at the time of Hassan Rouhani, left no space for the regime’s deceptive maneuvers.
Regime’s overt and covert nuclear projects have only resulted in greater poverty for the Iranian people.
Only those forces loyal to the regime like Pasdaran (Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp) and Basijis (Paramilitary Basij forces) with their families numbering to maximum 3 to 4 million out of Iran’s population of 80 millions chant rhetoric in favour of the nuclear program to create a false image that the entire Iranian population does support it.
As a matter of fact, in such circumstances, had the world powers acted more decisively during the recent negotiations, they could have dismantled the regime’s bomb-making program in its entirety.
But it seems that meanwhile they are impressed by a cleverly purported game performed by Rouhani that he is a true reformist whose moderate efforts are being obstructed and hindered by hardliners in Tehran and therefore he seriously needs backing of the Western leaders to enable him to overcome the zealots of Ali Khamenei.
While the world powers are naively joyful that they have found a reformist friend in Iran, is interesting to know what Rouhani and his smiling foreign minister are telling the Iranian media about the deal.
The Geneva deal has been described by pro-Khamenei elements in the regime’s parliament as a chalice of poison which is being presented by Rouhani as a sweet syrup.
Rouhani told the Iranian media that the deal had recognized Iran’s right to enrich. He also promised in an interview with state-run TV on November 26 that the centrifuges will go on spinning.
Furthermore, as reported by state-run news agency ILNA on November 27, while reporting to the regime’s parliament on Geneva deal, his foreign minister Javad Zarif said: “The other party accepted that Iran will continue to enrich uranium and the sanctions will be lifted.” These show very well that the 5+1 has not been tough enough to the mullahs’ negotiators.
Whether the West likes it or not, the past records tell us what to do at present and in future. The clerical regime has never volunteered to report its nuclear activities to the IAEA in the past even when Rouhani himself was a main nuclear negotiator; the Iranian resistance has been the first party that revealed the regime’s clandestine facilities and its nuclear deception.
Without these revelations the international community would have faced a surprise nuclear bomb in the hands of insane mullahs in Tehran. Therefore, it is a common sense not to trust them and closely monitor them on a daily basis.
Let us face the reality. No matter what Rouhani says, this regime cannot be trusted. The best way the world can ensure that Iran’s nuclear weapons program is truly halted is to stay vigilant, get them implement the every single item of the agreement and force them to halt uranium enrichment completely, agree to the Additional Protocol and the IAEA inspectors’ unhindered access to suspected nuclear centers and facilities. Keep these benchmarks in mind by which Iranian regime can be tested.
To those who think that they are destined to make a deal with mullahs on this issue let us remind that this regime views obtaining nuclear bomb as a strategic guarantee for its survival while Iranian Resistance movement and people of Iran favour a non-nuclear Iran. For world peace and security, the West should look to them.
