| U.S., Iran have 'Mutual Interest' in Defeating IS | |
| 2015-02-27 | |
| [AnNahar] The United States and Iran have a "mutual interest" in defeating the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group but the long-time foes are not cooperating to do so, Secretary of State John F. I was in Vietnam, you knowKerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat,conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... said Wednesday.
"So we have at least a mutual interest, if not a cooperative effort." Kerry, who has been pivotal to Washington's drive to strike a deal to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions, said the United States had not asked Tehran to get involved in the fight against the IS group. Since last year, the Sunni Death Eater group has waged a brutal offensive in Iraq and Syria, grabbing land and carrying out executions and forced religious conversions. Washington forged a coalition of Western and Arab nations to confront the Death Eaters, but mainly Shiite Iran is not officially part of the group. In December, Kerry also denied there was any military coordination with Iran, after the Pentagon said that Iranian jets had deployed against IS fighters in eastern Iraq. | |

| #12 FYI GROONG > THE STRUGGLE OF THE SUPERPOWERS IS FOR SPHERES OF INFLUENCE. As it was for MAHAN, PRE-N-POST COLD WAR, + now as per OWG GLOBALISM + CO-SUPERPOWERS. Iff the "American Dream" of the 20th Century is now the "NORTH AMERICAN/AMERIKAN DREAM" of the 21st Century, then IMO by extension the "CO-SUPERPOWER USA = "NORTH AMERICAN/AMERIKAN SUPERPOWER" OR "CO-SUPERPOWER", as Mexico + Canada + Greenland are now "CO-AMERICA/AMERICANS" wid the US. * MAHA-RUSHIAN LIMBAUGHIAN QUESTIONNE" = can SHIA IRAN, PUTINIST RUSSIA, + RISING CHINA ACCEPT SIMILAR "CO-STATES" IN THEIR REGIONS OR SPHERES??? * TOPIX > [EagleSpeak = National Interest] NEW DOMINO THEORY: [US = US-Allies] HELPING/ASSISTING UKRAINE MAY CAUS RUSSIA TO HELP CHINA TAKE CONTROL OVER THE SOUTH CHINA SEA REGION. I don't see Iran asking Sunni rival KSA, Egypt, Jordan, + Turkey to be part of the "Iranian/ Persian Dream" as OWG Globalist "Co-States" in Parity, nor do I see Darth Vlad being willing for GERMANY to go Nukulaar + reassert itself Geopol in parity wid Mama Russia. just sayin. * TOPIX, DEFENCE.PK/FORUMS > IS PRO-ACTIVE [Geopol/MilPol-reassertive, aggressive] GERMANY THE BEST FOR EUROPE? What America = Amerikans are seeing on the MSM-Net instead is more like ... ... * WORLD MILITARY FORUM > RUSSIA IN THE ARTIC: NEWSWEEK'S NEW "RED DAWN" WARNING. * TOPIX > [New York Post] BIN LADEN'S TERROR PLANS REVEALED DURING [Naseer]TERROR TRIAL: "FOCUS ON KILLING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE". Schemas for attacking the US White House, Statue of Liberty, + "American Heartland" [Midwest?], + also the UK + Russia + Europe. All things equal, the ultimate or true aim of the 9-11 + GWOT was its effect-n-consequence on the US + US Power, I.E. THE END OF SAME. As I've said before, I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT 9-11 WAS PLANNED BY OBL SINCE AT LEAST THE LATE 1960's + EARLY 1970's. I can say something about the US + Other's role in the rise of Saddam + overthrow of the Shah of Iran, etc. but "that's another story", as the saying goes. * SAME > BIN LADEN WAS [Remained = "Sole"?] AL-QAIDA CHIEF UNTIL HIS KILLING: DOCS. * RUSSIA TODAY > US INTEL CHIEFS SEE THREATS, DANGERS EVERYWHERE. |

| #10 Note the recent Saudi public agreement that Israel can use it's airspace. The caveat being, they will only consider it if Israel has bmade sufficient progress surrendering to the Palestinians. Bibi is going to have to negotiate hard there -- and he may be the only one capable of it. |

| #7 Ultimately, whether it be Sunni or Shia, their goals are mutual and that is "Islam uber alles." The destruction of the U.S. and Israel is their aim. |

| #5 Note the recent Saudi public agreement that Israel can use it's airspace. I feel a Saudi/Gulf Arab vs Iran confrontation isn't too far off, and they will rely on Israel to make the critical blows against Iran. |

| #2 Not unlike the post-9-11 Washington + OWG Amerika of his Parents, the future Islamic Mahdi 2030-2050 will be as "Unitarian". Speaking of NOT-UNITARIANISM ... * GROONG > [Independent.UK] ISIS MAY HAD MADE MANY ENEMIES, BUT IT MAY BE SAVED BY ITS INABILITY TO UNITE. * WAFF > STRATFOR: TURKEY TO EMERGE AS A MAJOR REGIONAL POWER IN THE COMING DECADE. * BLOOMBERG > THE COMING CAOS IN THE UK ELECTION [2016]. Arise, Madonna, Arise! The US-born, US-raised, future UK Queen Madonna, versus the US-born, future US-raised Islamic Mahdi. Wid Nukes, of course. D *** NG IT, PERSONALLY I BLAME WILKAT'S CHURCHILL-IAN LOOKING BABY SON = PRINCE OF WALES! HE'S AS GUILTY AS SPRINGFIELD, USA'S 9-YEAR OLD MAFIA BOSS BART SIMPSON. LOL. |
