WHAT IS UNFOLDING? IRAN WANTS NUCLEAR WEAPONS

A coalition of Nuclear War proponents maybe gathering and conspiring to use Weapons of Mass Destruction against the United States and freedom movements around the globe.

According to the Times of Israel, “Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has pledged that the Islamic Republic is ‘too great to be intimidated by anyone’, as tensions rise with the United States.

‘God willing we will pass this difficult period with glory and our heads held high, and defeat the enemy,’ he said at a meeting with Sunni clerics late Monday, government website dolat.ir reported.”

AN IRANIAN/ISLAM REFORMER TO WATCH:

According to her site:

“Maryam Rajavi was born into a middle-class family in Tehran. One of her brothers, Mahmoud, is a veteran member of the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK), and was a political prisoner during the Shah’s regime.

Her older sister Narges was killed by the Shah’s secret police, SAVAK, in 1975. Her other sister, Massoumeh, an industrial engineering student, was arrested by the clerical regime in 1982. Pregnant at the time, she was ultimately hanged after undergoing brutal torture.

Rajavi joined the MEK as a young woman. Following the 1979 anti-monarchical revolution, she ran for a seat in Parliament from Tehran during the first parliamentary election in 1980. But, due to widespread voter fraud by the new fundamentalist regime, none of the opposition candidates made it into Parliament. Despite the fraud, Rajavi received over 250,000 votes.”

According to her twitter, Rajavi identifies herself as, “National Council of Resistance of Iran President-elect, leading voice on women’s empowerment and tolerance”

She agrees with President Donald J. Trump’s Commerce Department.

The unpatriotic project to obtain nuclear weapons was another pillar of the #Iran regime’s strategy for survival which was unravelled by the PMOI/MEK. https://t.co/2IaXSKjExd — Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) May 14, 2019

The mullahs are truly the worst murderers of the people of #Iran & the most vicious thieves in Iranian history who rule under the banner of Islam. As the Quran says, they are the worst enemies of God, His religion & His people. — Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) May 14, 2019

Rouhani’s remarks made it palpably clear that the anti-Iranian nuclear projects must be dismantled. The regime needs WMD & regional conflicts to survive.#Iran — Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) May 8, 2019

The clerical regime considers its survival to be a crisis in the world. This regime must be overthrown.#Iran #IRGCTerrorists #BlackListMOIS — Akbar Khiabani (@akbarkhiabani92) May 13, 2019

The evil #Iran regime cannot survive in the face of the Iranian people’s uprising, their resistance units & their great army of freedom; it will be overthrown. — Maryam Rajavi (@Maryam_Rajavi) May 14, 2019

RUSSIA IN AGREEMENT

#Putin: we have common interests, such as the preservation of #strategicstability, the non-proliferation of WMD, the settlement of regional crises, the struggle against organised crime, efforts to resolve environmental issues
