IRANIAN DOUBLE CROSS??? MAYBE.. OR JUST PARANOIA ONCE AGAIN!
Last week, I kept reading about a series of articles,
statements and open press stories on how President Rouhani was for lack of
better terms, a turncoat.
It was also fairly understood this story line was being
pushed by the IRGC’s leadership.
So, fast forward to this week and then comes the rumors of
the IRGC preparing to neutralize any have baked deal Rouhani may come up with
over the Iranian nuclear weapons program.
Is Rouhani truly a reformed, Middle of the Roder”?
The West / US / has certainly been banking on that wish.
Could Khamenei have concocted a plan where Rouhani comes out
as the “reformer….willing to talk to the West”… and yet be a loyal follower of
the Persian grand plan?
Or, did Rouhani win an election based upon the votes of
those the Khamenei / IRGC / camp fears the most…….. the youth of Iran?
Remember this.
The backfire the Iranians started to prevent the Forrest
fire of the Arab Spring from reaching the Iranian capital, that lead to the
civil war in Syria was just one indication of how far Khamenei’s team was
willing to go to preserve the “dream”.
Has Rouhani truly tried to strike out on his own?
Is he truly making an attempt to meet the West halfway?
I’m not sold on the idea, but in reality, it doesn’t really
matter what we in the West think.
What is important to focus on is the reality that the CUD
force and the IRGC work for the Supreme Leader an no one else.
I’ve said this before and I will say it again.
If the Supreme Leader wants Rouhani gone, all he has to do
is send one message to Soleimani and the deal is done!
Taking all of this into consideration, what are we looking
at in Iran?
Is the House divided?
How does the West “test” this theory?
Does it even know how or worse; does it have the desire to
try?
This Iranian weapons game has been going on for decades now
and the playing level is now far more complex than any point in the past.
Trust is a fleeting concept in the 21st century
of international affairs.
Trust inside the walls of a tyrannical government like the
one in Iran is nearly impossible thanks to social media.
If there is a disturbance in the “Force”, something I’ve questioned
in the past when talking of the Persians, then how is it leveraged?
Now, here is the truly disappointing question.
Who takes advantage of it?
If not the West / US / then who?
Ah yes… once again the Tsar’s name comes into the picture.
Talks coming up….talks the US and the West are desperate to
have a positive spin.
That means nothing.
What does the Tsar want to take place as a result of these “talks”?
That’s the real question.
