Canada-Iran tensions: Why Israel is so happy

Iranian officials say the Canadian government's decision is a move to divert the international attention from the atrocities they're committing in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

(TEHRAN) - In a frantic and unexpectedly hysterical decision made on September 7, the Canadian government suspended all its diplomatic ties with Iran, closed its embassy in Tehran and ordered the Iranian diplomats to leave the Canadian soil in 5 days.

The Canadian Foreign Minister John Baird made an unbelievably offensive statement, calling Iran "the most significant threat to global peace and security in the world today."

Hundreds of wars have been fought on this earth since the Persians last waged an international attack.

(SACRAMENTO, CA) - Get your popcorn out and put your student cap on; prepare to receive a set of important facts that will help you understand the Middle east conflict.

US Diplomacy vs. Tel Aviv`s Adventurism: Who Is the Final Winner?

The United States is distancing itself from Israel’s policies on Iran.

(TEHRAN) - Following recent efforts by the Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu who apparently tried to depict an extremist and adventurist picture of Israel to the world and after his hostile positions on Iran were mostly ignored, his government has gone down with a morbid sense of incredibility.

This issue is even evident in the statements made by various Israeli officials.

What Happened, Canada?

The probable outcome of the Canadian diplomatic split with Tehran will be a net loss in Western intelligence and no appreciable economic fallout for Iran.

(DENVER Tehran Times) - “You cannot claim your eagerness for democracy, human rights and all these things and through unilateral sanctions try to put all sorts of suffering and inflict suffering and hardship on other people.

This is a contradiction,” Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said at the Non-Aligned Movement summit in Tehran.

Americans Do Not Want or Need a Pre-Emptive War against Iran

Americans are weary of war, particularly those conflicts that seem to serve no national purpose.

(ALEXANDRIA, VA) - Voices are increasingly being heard -- both in Israel and the United States -- urging a pre-emptive war against Iran to prevent that country from developing a nuclear weapon.

Those in Washington urging military action against Iran are the same ones who argued for the invasion of Iraq, beginning a year before it took place in 2003.

Israeli Leaders Score Own Goal Over Non-Aligned Summit in Iran

Uri Avnery argues that the Israeli premier’s and defence minister’s reactions to the UN and Egyptian leaders’ participation in the Tehran non-aligned summit demonstrate their ideological fixations, mental outlook and low intelligence.

(TEL AVIV Redress) - Nothing could be more scary than the thought that this duo – Binyamin Netanyahu and Ehud Barak – is in a position to start a war, the dimensions and outcome of which are incalculable.

It’s scary not only because of their ideological fixations and mental outlook, but also because of the level of their intelligence.

Target Killing, Mass Murder of Shia Minority in Pakistan

Doctor Syed Naimatullah is the 419th victim of targeted killings since January 2012.

(TEHRAN) - With thousands of Shia Muslims killed over the past few years in Pakistan and over 400 murdered in recent months, the killings have practically amounted to genocide.

The story raises more-than-sectarian alarm bells not only in Pakistan but also across the Muslim world.

Implementing the Feltman Project...
Is the Syrian Crisis Being Leveraged to Weaken Hezbollah?

Increasing threats of violence in Lebanon and Syria, appear designed to peel away support from Hezbollah and to ignite more sectarian conflict in Lebanon.

(BEIRUT Counterpunch) - One would be correct in imagining that life’s no bowl of cherries for Hezbollah these days.

Being sucked into the maelstrom of Lebanese and regional politics can’t bring much pleasure to Lebanon’s National Resistance...

The United States: The Depravity Drones On

Like the oppressed people of Palestine, Iran has also been under siege by America and its Western “partners” in international crime ever since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in 1979.

(DENVER,CO) - “But you can see the current situation: People love everything except paradise and divine reward and they fear everything except God’s anger and punishment.” Ayatullah Dastghaib Shirazi.

By all appearances, the Washington regime has no fear of anger and punishment by the Almighty or anyone else for that matter.
