The moment the Iranians achieve those two objectives they may change the purpose and course of negotiations to further Iranian national aspirations to become the regional hegemon in the Middle East. The first anniversary of the Iranian nuclear deal was reached just five days ago. Fox News reported that “over the past year Iran has repeatedly and blatantly violated the terms of that agreement. It is not realistic to think that the Iranians will change their behavior any time soon: they will continue cheating until they have gotten their monies and have put their nuclear weapons program on a swift path to completion.” http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2016/07/14/first-anniversary-iran-nuclear-deal-marred-by-massive-cheating.html One way of cheating will be to stage a fake coup, or to use a legal coup (in alignment with new Sharia law requirements) to seize control of the government from “moderates.” A coup attempt will provide the Iranian hardliners with an excuse for cracking down on the opposition, a critical stepping stone in creating a Persian-Islamic Empire in the Middle East. Even worse from the standpoint of those who want to prevent this from happening, a USA Today article published yesterday referencing an AP report revealed the existence of documents that point to the lifting of constraints on Iran’s nuclear weapons program. The AP article stated: “A document obtained by The Associated Press shows that key restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program will ease in slightly more than a decade, halving the time Tehran would need to build a bomb.” “The document is the only secret text linked to last year’s agreement between Iran and six foreign powers. It says that after a period of between 11 to 13 years, Iran can replace its 5,060 inefficient centrifuges with up to 3,500 advanced machines. Since those are five times as efficient, the time Iran would need to make a weapon would drop from a year to six months.” http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2016/07/18/secret-document-iran-nuclear-constraints/87256214/ If the majority of Iran’s 85 million citizens understood that they could easily remove from power the 150,000 hardliners who currently control the government, they might rise up against them and accomplish their ouster. But with the United States conducting air strikes in Iraq to help Major General Qasim Soleimani, a former commander of Iran Quds Force, and with Assad holding on to power in Syria with the active support of the current administration, and with Russia and Iran working together to strengthen their footprint in Iraq and Syria, building their reputation and ability in the region, the likelihood of Iranians rising up against their government even during a fake coup seems very remote if not impossible. Who is Major General Qasim Soleimani? […]
