Secret memo: Obama ignored SOS from Iranian opposition
I don't know whether the Iranian opposition movement is any less anti-Israel than the Khameni-Ahmadinejad regime. It's unlikely that they could be any worse. And in fact, the letter quoted later in this post implies (and I will bold and italicize the proof) that the opposition might even be willing to drop the nuclear program, or at least the weapons part of it. Regardless, if this story is true, one cannot help but be shocked by the callousness of the Obama administration towards them.
The Washington Examiner is reporting that a secret memo 'suggests' that the Obama administration ignored a plea for help from the Iranian opposition in November 2009, some give months after the rigged Iranian elections (Hat Tip: Memeorandum).
http://washingtonexaminer.com/news/world/2012/02/secret-memo-suggests-white-house-ignored-sos-iranian-opposition/318891 Documents obtained by The Washington Examiner suggest the Obama administration missed at least one major opportunity to help opposition groups in Iran that has not previously been reported. In November 2009, leaders of the Green party, which had staged a revolt on the streets of Tehran in June of that year, sent a long memo through channels to the Obama administration that some analysts said was a clear call for help.
"So now, at this pivotal point in time, it is up to the countries of the free world to make up their mind," states the opposition memo dated Nov. 30, 2009. "Will they continue on the track of wishful thinking and push every decision to the future until it is too late, or will they reward the brave people of Iran and simultaneously advance the Western interests and world peace."
The eight-page memo describes the current regime under Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as a "brutal, apocalyptic theocratic dictatorship."
The memo warns that Iran "with its apocalyptic constitution will never give up the atomic bomb, nor will it give up its terror network, because it needs these instruments to maintain its power and enhance its own economic and financial wealth."
The administration claimed in 2009 that the Green party in Iran did not want American help. And the State Department repeated that this week. "Most leaders in the Green movement made clear they did not desire financial or other support from the United States," a State Department senior official said. "As an organic movement, it was concerned that taking outside support would discredit it in the eyes of the Iranian people. We respect that and do not provide financial assistance to any political movement, party or faction in Iran."
But the memo tells a different story, some critics said.
But without the apocalyptic constitution it would give up the atomic bomb and the terror network? Maybe. And they had an atomic bomb or were well on their way to one in November 2009? Probably.
If this is true (and it sounds plausible) Barack Hussein Obama is even scummier than I ever gave him credit for being.
Read the whole thing. It includes previously undisclosed details of Obama's contacts with Ahmadinejad. This is outrageous.
