2) First of all, to understand why @IshaanTharoor would write such a piece, I would like to remind everyone that he is just another #Iran regime apologist/lobbyist whom I’ve debunked before.
8) I can go & on. So can anyone who does a simple google search.
Moving on.
@IshaanTharoor parrots #Iran’s claims of the U.S. violating the 1955 Treaty of Amity by exiting the 2015 nuclear deal, citing a recent International Court of Justice ruling.
9) Of course, @IshaanTharoor won’t mention how #Iran’s regime raided the U.S. Embassy in Tehran back in Nov 1979 & took 52 American diplomats hostage for 444 days.
10) @IshaanTharoor also won’t mention how #Iran’s offspring, the Lebanese Hezbollah, bombed the U.S. Marines barracks in Lebanon back in 1983.
11) @IshaanTharoor won’t mention how #Iran-backed proxies have been behind killing hundreds, if not thousands, of American soldiers across the Middle East.
12) @IshaanTharoor also won’t discuss how #Iran’s regime took 10 U.S. sailors hostage.
(Maybe because the entire ordeal was a conspiracy plotted by Obama. Well, that’s a story fro another day…) nypost.com/2016/05/17/det…
13) And of course, #Iran’s regime is famously known for chanting “Death to America."
And this...
(So, let's put that ridiculous Treaty of Amity argument aside... It's too embarrassing for @IshaanTharoor & the Iranian regime if I continue...)
14) @IshaanTharoor moves on to say “Rouhani welcomed a European proposal to create a barter system in which companies could trade with Iran without money changing hands, thus skirting U.S. sanctions.”
Let me list a few recent wake up calls for #Iran’s regime & Tharoor.
15) Sec. Pompeo met with his German counterpart Heiko Maas, who emphasized Berlin shares Washington’s objectives on #Iran.
16) And if anyone thought Russia, after coming to the mullahs’ support in their butchery in Syria, is the ally of #Iran's regime, think again.
19) @IshaanTharoor cites Anna Holligan, the BBC’s correspondent in The Hague, saying the ICJ decision could encourage European companies to reconsider their position.
20) @IshaanTharoor goes on to mention “regime change” & the “Iranian opposition.”
Being an #Iran apologist/lobbyists, this is the main objective of his article: to discredit any effort of regime change by the Iranian opposition.
21) Seeking the view of “analysts,” @IshaanTharoor then cites Barbara Slavin of the Atlantic Council.
Here are some pictures of Slaving (with a headscarf) alongside senior #Iran regime figures & @tparsi, the known #Iran apologist/lobbyist.
And of course, Khomeini’s image.
22) And here’s Slavin giving the middle finger to supporters of the Iranian opposition PMOI/MEK.
Very professional, indeed!
(I think @ishaantharoor should think twice the next time he chooses his "analysts." Don't you?)
23) And let’s return to the article’s image.
Rouhani is ridiculously smiling for this photo op.
However, rest assured that in this very meeting, held on the sidelines of the UNGA, French President Emmanuel Macron warned Rouhani about the future.
24) In an unprecedented measure, France is accusing #Iran’s notorious Ministry of Intelligence & Security (MOIS) of being behind a foiled terror bomb plot aiming to target the June 30th Iranian opposition rally held near Paris. reuters.com/article/us-fra…
25) Even the #MSM, usually reporting in #Iran’s favor, understands the importance of these recent developments.
26) Even #Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is voicing concerns, citing “sensitive times” & “economic woes.” uk.reuters.com/article/uk-ira…
27) And also, one of my friends read @IshaanTharoor’s article & had this reaction:
“This is nothing but a propaganda piece. I hope the writer himself isn’t inside the bubble because it’s going to burst very soon, very fast & the impact is going to hurt.”
28) Furthermore, being the #Iran apologist/lobbyist that he is, @IshaanTharoor won’t discuss Rouhani’s horrible human rights track record.
32) ADDENDUM:
“All the companies are going to think of their shareholders first, regardless of what the EU does,” one oil industry executive said. “No one is going to run the risk of falling foul of US sanctions.”
#BREAKING
U.S. President Donald Trump has accepted the resignation of Nikki Haley as UN Ambassador.
My gut tells me an even bigger story will develop.
Rest assured #Iran's regime is terrified about who Trump/Pompeo will appoint as their new envoy. axios.com/donald-trump-n…
#BREAKING
Amb. Nikki Haley spoke six months ago with President Donald Trump about the subject of resigning.
Will be staying at this post until the end of the year.
#BREAKING

2) "Criminal networks are using Iran as a transit point for illicit Somali charcoal exports that earn Islamist militants al Shabaab millions of dollars annually in tax, U.N. sanctions monitors said in a report seen by Reuters."
3) "... domestic revenue generation by al Qaeda-affiliated al Shabaab 'is more geographically diversified and systematic' than that of Somalia’s federal government."
