Jumblatt: Iran arms can defend us against Israel
PressTV / PressTV
13-Sep-2009 (25 comments)

Leader of Lebanon's most powerful Druze clan Walid Jumblatt says Lebanon can turn to Iran to acquire the weapons it needs for protection against its enemies.

Speaking to Press TV in Beirut on Saturday, Jumblatt said Washington refuses to provide Lebanon with its essential armament, fearing that the weapons could be used against its ally, Israel.

Warning about a possible Israeli aggression against Lebanon, Jumblatt added “They (Israelis) are not hiding that, they are saying we will attack or we will one day come to Lebanon again.”

"Until now all the weapons delivered to the Lebanese army were American weapons or weapons from the Arab world," Jumblatt said.

IRI and Shah Gholam are a dying breed!

by Farhad Kashani on

Shah Gholam,

You and your beloved Fascist IRI regime are a dying breed, the regime as far its life span, and you as far as your BS. You know it and we know it. You are done with. Iranian Left has taken such a major blow that it will take years and years for it to recover. The June 12th uprising was against IRI regime and anyone who supports, justifies and apologizes for it, most notably, the Left.

Everything you say these days is out of desperation. That is evident in every word you write and every biased and twisted piece you post. You have stuck your head in the sand thinking others don’t realize that, just like IRi has. IRI thinks people are stupid, some are, like you, but vast majority are well aware.

You know you are a dying breed. The Left has never been under attack like this because the Left has proven it’s against Iran, its people and what’s good for them. They did the same thing in every country they were active in. you are very much responsible for the rise of IRIs Fascism. You know it and we know it, and after June 12th, you’re trying to salvage something that will fall apart no questions asked.

The reason that I expose your pathetic propaganda is that I want to add misery to you and IRIs inevitable fall. I want to see people like you and the IRI regime you love, be done with. I have never seen my wish becoming ever closer reality. Because your regime and people like you are responsible for the destruction of something I love so much, Iran. You are also responsible for the clash of civilization between Iran and the world, and between Islam and the world. You are responsible for the misery of millions and millions of people around the world.

 

So at this time, I am proud that an IRI propagandist like you calls me an “Israeli” because that’s how IRI labels anyone and everyone who stand against what they stand, and we know what they stand is Fascism. It’s an honor for me for that IRI and its goons like you to think of me as an “enemy”. Nothing satisfies me more than that, and make no mistake, I will be here exposing your dying propaganda. I will be here. I promise.


kharmagas

sadly, a111.2 is correct to a large extent.

by kharmagas on

Gholam, I believe IRI has done very well in weaking the ruthless Israelis ... but with decades of neglect, specially neglect of poor and middle class in Iran by corrupt Rafsanjanis ... and other khodies, many average Iranians are somewhat indifferent to Israel ... AIPAC ... , and fascist right wing republicans (or democrats) who dream about bombing Iran.

...... I have seen that in Iran as well.

Gholam

by anonymous111.2 on

When you say:

"Mr. annonymous111.2, I have done exactcly that. I did prove to all passengers of a taxi cab in Tehran why it was a superb policy to assist our allies and they did understand in the end."

I really wouldn't be so sure about that.  The passengers in the cab probably thought you're an undercover Basiji and pretended to agree with you so that they don't end up in Evin or Kahrizak.  I tell you another story.  I was in Iran recently, and everytime I got in a cab, I ended up being the person who shouted the fewest profanities at Khamenei, Ahmadinejad, Hassan Nassrollah, Hezbollah, Hamas, and the IRI in general!!!  It was pretty surreal actually.  The only place in Iran which I heard rhetoric like yours was on the very few occasions that my family turned the TV channel to Iran's government TV.

And when you say:

"The Iraqi regime much like the Persian Gulf states are nothing but US/Israeli proxies (ironically as the subject of hot discussion here). I refuse to be your highschool teacher, best is to refer to Wiki for an eduacation."

I  took your suggestion and looked in Wikipedia.  Nowhere did I find any evidence of your claim.  So, please do be our school teacher, and provide evidence as to why all of these regimes are U.S. proxies.  Are you also saying that Gammal Abdelnasser, Israel's greatest Arab enemy, who coined the name "Arabian Gulf", and who hated Iranians as much as he hated the Israelis, was also an Israeli agent?!!!!!


Shah Ghollam

I simply love it!

by Shah Ghollam on

I admit, I simply love seeing these lost charactors who come here having many different colors but at the end of the day, they keep repeating the same thing over and over.

Some Like Kashani, Fred, Iranfirst are cloaked Zionists wrapped in Iranian flag:

These individulas keep promoting Israel not with an outright tac, rather by wipping IRI and almost always refering to the events during the elections such as killings and rape. But they don't have much else to say! I like to serve them this:

Ankas ke bedanad va bedanad ke bedanad, Asbe Kherad az gonbade gardoon bejahanad

That is because these marmoulaks know exactly what they talk about. They have a preset agenda to undo Israeli enemies regardless of the means. They will lie through their teeth in Iranian opposition name having an iota interest for Iran or Iranians period. Anyone with the slightest brain could understand that these people will anhilate Iranians if they can anytime, just pay attention to their history. They will succeed if we allow them.

Some want to revive the Persian Empire and erase nearly 1500 years of post Islamic history:

These people are forever lost. Much like the other charactors they will fossilize sitting in their comfortable armcahirs outside of Iran for eternity. The following suits them best:

Aankas ke nadanad va nadanad ke nadanad, dar jahle morakab abadoldahr bemanad

 Some others, like Payam are MKO agents. They may call me and others "Arabs" and so on, having quickly forgotton what they did during Iran/Iraq war siding with Saddam (an Arab) against Iranian troops. I grant them the following:

An kas ke bedanad va nadanad ke bedanad, bidarash namaeid ke bas khofte namanad
 

Back to the main subject, the great Empires, starting with Persian Empire, always used proxies either by force or were simply asked to have proxies in exchange for protection against the common enemies. For those who still have hard time to understand this let me remind you of Al-Quaida that was the US proxy against the Soviets in Afghanestan in recet history. The relationship betwen Iran and Syria, Hamas and Lebanon is not at all complicated. For six decades the Zionists have brought nothing but havocs in order to grab Arab lands. Iran is simply making the most of the situation for mutual benefit much like we did in Persian Empire times. It costs money? of course yes! What do you get for free in the US? Why would it be any different for Iran? Iran's proxies are not limited to these three entities. Iran has proxies in Afghanestan, pakistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Algeria, Morocco, Sudan, Armania, Egypt and more.

I think it would be undeserving if I do not complete my post and fail to address some of the comments against me here.

"Yeah congradulate each other you shameless cockroaches for taking my country back 500 years for killing and raping the unarmed people then and now. Not to worry though, we will kick your arab asses out soon. We did it once, we'll do it again and this time -for good! Enjoy it while it lasts....."

Speaking for myself, I m not jolly a bit to see what happened after the elections in Iran, in fact, no real Iranian would! Just because I do not yell my gutts out it does not mean I approve the events. But what do I gain at the end of the day bitching about Iranian government at some of the most critical times of Iranian history by sitting in my comfortable armchair outside of Iran like many of you do? In fact, what right do I have doing just that while outside of Iran? I will take my beef into Iran when I am there not like a coward yelling my gutts out outside of Iran. All the protests outside of Iran will at the end of the day count against Iran's well being. Iran has been a major moyee-to-damagh for the West and the Zionists. They simply can't be anymore happier to use the "opposition" outside of Iran to ultimately bring down Iran in such a way that will gurantee us being their slaves for the next century this time. 

It is somehow fashionable at Iranian.com to ask for democracy in Iran while living in the "democratic" west and call others "Arabs" as a profanity and insult. Mr. Cadivar is also included in this bunch oddly having a French/Iranian heritage, you go an figure how? This must be a new French fashion, I guess! But what it indeed tells is how shallow these individuals are not only in their acclaimed Democratic wishes but their understanding about Iranian demography. How can they explain that they are, in the meantime, insulting Iranian Arabs too being 5% of the population. Be aware, they might start calling others Turks in the same way! So much for their pariotism and democratic ideals. I dare them to talk the same language to anyone in public in the USA and see what will happen to them, this includes Mr. Cadivar!

"They are all the same person, using different ID's. morons come in small doses.

To the name callers, call us any names you want, we don't care. All I care is to get rid of your arab kind and kick you out of Iran ( the proces has begun as you noticed recently). All the rest is BS. Now buy yourself a oneway ticket to Beiroet and leave us Iranians alone. Arab problems do not concern us (, neither Israel problems). "

You are free to think what you want! But a suggestion, so long as you are outside of Iran you can't hurt anything a bit. Cowards like you shall remain in their armchairs but will gain heck of a lot of jaw muscles! That is your future.

"Israel can wipe off IRI in 37 minutes. Only a moron would think Iran is a "threat" to Israel or the U.S.

The only reason Israel has not wiped off Iran from the face of the earth is because most Americans are humane and will not allow their government give the go ahead to Israel for a massive attack. "

I like this dude Faramarz_Fateh. If you noticed, he has no claim he is an Iranian except for his name and a faceless flag. You can bet he is an Israeli, see how he boasts about 37 minutes destruction of Iran? for your information, Israel CANNOT do much against Iran militarily. You watch too much of Israeli propaganda Youtube videos. Pay attention  how misreable US is against Iran as we speak then extrapolate it to Israel. As a reminder (you don't seem to be particularly well read) it is the Israeli government that has called Iran its "existentional enemy". Where have you been?

"The good news is that these morons are the perfect examples of out of touch ideologues who are very rare in the Iranian society.  They will be laughed out (or punched out for that matter) of a cab in Iran once they open their mouths and talk about how good it is to send all our money to Hezbollah and Hamas so we get a "thumbs up" once a while from a bunch of two faced terrorists who would sell us down the river for the great "Arab" cause the moment it suits their agenda (like their great role model Yasser Arafat).

Shah Gholam, please answer this: which countries have been at war with Iran, claimed ownership of Iranian territory and changed the name of Persian Gulf within the past century?  Israel?  I don't think so.  Arab countries: check!  Whether Israel is a criminal regime (which I think its is) is not our business.  Let the Arabs and Israelis sort it out. "

Mr. annonymous111.2, I have done exactcly that. I did prove to all passengers of a taxi cab in Tehran why it was a superb policy to assist our allies and they did understand in the end. Now, convincing you who live thousands of miles away with a self claimed intellectual superiority would a massive challenge for me indeed! And read above what I wrote about insulting people as "Arabs" for an education.

As for your question(s), It is sad indeed to see how empty you are in current history, but I am not surprised. The Iraqi regime much like the Persian Gulf states are nothing but US/Israeli proxies (ironically as the subject of hot discussion here). I refuse to be your highschool teacher, best is to refer to Wiki for an eduacation.

As for Israel, Israel is a threat to all muslim countries. This is inherent in its existance and will continue as long as Zionism exists in that country. Israel will, at best, tolerate Iran but will not accept Iran as a main power in ME as Iran's deserving right and will harm Iran covertly at any juncture. pay attention to events of the downfall of the Shah. At the time, Shah was on record to have plans for ten nuclear powerplants and oppenly announced its desire to be a nuclear power. Israeli activities against Iran in the past ten years, for having a single nuclear powerplant, should guide you to their possible involement in Shah's downfall and thus undoing the possible power that was possible to be.

Expose Zionists

It's called being "wrong and strong".  Even if they actually are different users, if you add them all up, there are 6 of them on this site.  But boy, they are vocal.  They are on every thread, saying the same BS over and over again, and backing each other up, making it seem like everyone agrees with them.

The good news is that these morons are the perfect examples of out of touch ideologues who are very rare in the Iranian society.  They will be laughed out (or punched out for that matter) of a cab in Iran once they open their mouths and talk about how good it is to send all our money to Hezbollah and Hamas so we get a "thumbs up" once a while from a bunch of two faced terrorists who would sell us down the river for the great "Arab" cause the moment it suits their agenda (like their great role model Yasser Arafat).

Shah Gholam, please answer this: which countries have been at war with Iran, claimed ownership of Iranian territory and changed the name of Persian Gulf within the past century?  Israel?  I don't think so.  Arab countries: check!  Whether Israel is a criminal regime (which I think its is) is not our business.  Let the Arabs and Israelis sort it out.

And baba joon: you can post as many nonsense on this site talking about that conflict to divert attention, but the fact remains that you are running out of time.  Your beloved regime is collapsing.  You know that they're in trouble when you have demonstrations in Qom on Qadr night calling them dictators.

So, you and your cheerleader buddies (if you are in fact different people) can call us "Zionists" all you want, but as we say in Persian (which I assume is a foreign language to you): "joojeh ra akhar-e paaeez mishmorand"!!!!!

XerXes

Iran will assist its allies

by XerXes on

No if buts or maybe to that. Iran will stand firm against any countries that attack her allies and will show the Middle Eastern nations that they all can have a friend with Iran.
That's a sure thing. Having Iranian allies is not exclusive policies of the Islamic Republic, it should be an Iranian policy period.

Lebanon, you are safe. If Israel kill you, they will be killed too.

yes Jaleh, even Robet Baer admits that.

by kharmagas on

yes Jaleh .... personally despite my serious disagreements with IRI, I am PROUD that those policies have caused serious issues for the fascists.


Jaleho

Iran's foreign policy is brilliant in general!

by Jaleho on

But, I agree with you Shah Gholam, Iran's foreign policy in the ME is particularly brilliant. Iraq from being a menace, has become an Iranian tool, Afghanistan is getting all kind of help and war from the international community combined and it still looks towards Iran for anything serious, and Iran's proxies around Israel are the best Iran could ever wish for, both in Syria and Lebanon.

Israeli tools on Iranian.com do not understand how important Iran's foreign policy has been for security of Iran and its advancement in a sea of internationally-backed hostilities! 


Shah Ghollam

Iran's ME strategy is brilliant!

by Shah Ghollam on

It is interesting how the few anti Iran cloaked Isralis/Zionists here can oppose any assistance from Iran to Lebanon to create a strategic havoc against Israel in a brilliant self defence strategy but are numb on nearly $10 billion US dollars tax payers money that goes to Israel as direct and indirect assistance annually even during the hardest times for Americans as we speak!!!!!! Is any of you dual citizens? .......Hhhuuuumm!

Finally, hasn't the US used this very strategy of funding many countries around the world (specially in ME) to gain strategic allies for decades? Then what is wrong with Iranians using the same tactics?

Expose Zionists!
