Obama Betrayed Iranian People; Trump Stands with Them

We remember when the Iranians took to the streets to protest when Obama was President.  He was mute.  We guess that with the Arab Spring in full riot he didn't want one more Muslim nation imploding and giving him a headache.

Not so for President Trump!  He calls a spade, "a spade" and lets the chips fall where they may.

As a long-time Iranian, I can tell you that the support of the US and President Trump is invaluable to the ordinary Iranians: they feel helpless and alone in the face of the monsters who have been oppressing them for so long.

Remember, just eight years ago, that the people of Iran rose up in their millions against their Islamist dictatorship. The US administration at the time stayed abhorrently silent. People on the streets chanted, "Obama, Obama, are you with them [mullahs] or with us?"

Washington did not offer support. The administration's dismissal not only enabled the mullahs brutally to crush the demonstrations with impunity; the mullahs were even rewarded with a deal that would enable them to have a legitimate nuclear weapons capability down the road, as well as billions of dollars.

Obama and the Iranian regime sold the world the idea that the nuclear agreement, appeasement policies towards the mullahs, and the lifting of UN sanctions would supposedly help the Iranian people and make the Iranian government a constructive player. All facts show, then as now, that the opposite took place.

People are suffering financially in oil-rich Iran (as they are in oil-rich Venezuela). Unemployment among the youth has reached a record-high of roughly 31%, while approximately 60% of the Iranian population is under 30 years of age. Many of the youth are highly educated and tech-savvy but they cannot find jobs. Those who are older cannot afford medicine, food or shelter. Inflation has been skyrocketing.

Suppression of freedoms, and human rights violations have escalated, according to Amnesty International and other human rights groups. The extra billions of dollars in revenue, thanks to the wretched nuclear agreement that should have been cancelled months ago, are going not into the pockets of the people, but into the pockets of the Revolutionary Guards, Syria's President Assad, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and other terrorist groups.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani's proposed budget for 2018-2019 includes a significant increase for the military and ballistic-missile program while cutting subsidies for the poor.

US President Donald J. Trump, on the other hand, has been supporting and praising the bravery of the Iranian people, and publicly condemning any human rights violations committed by the Iranian regime against the people.

The Iranian regime, its agents and the mainstream leftist media is attempting to make readers and viewers believe that the US should be silent during this uprising.

How could a country based on freedom and civil rights be silent while other humans are being butchered because they desire that same freedom and those same rights? Is silence not a betrayal of justice, freedom and democracy? Is silence not a betrayal of the victims of Islamism, terrorism and violence, in the face of the acts being committed by the Iranian regime against innocent people in Iran and around the world? The Iranian regime is the top state sponsor of terrorism. It is ranked top in the world when it comes to executing people per capita. The regime, according to Amnesty International, is a leading executioner of children. As the regime continues to intensify its crackdown in the last few days, dozens of peaceful protesters have been shot dead.

It's comical to see the leftists in the media go wild about Trump's comments on Iran and his Tweet about having a "bigger button" on his desk than 'lil rocket man" of North Korea.

The reason for this is that the vast majority of leftists are godless.  They believe that life on this planet formed from nothing and that if we aren't careful...we are going to blow ourselves up back into nothing!!

For this reason, they tiptoe around bullies like Kim Jong and they also are willing to appease tyrants in Iran.  Hence Obama's disastrous nuke deal with Iran.  "Oh please, please, please Iran!!....please take these plane loads of cash from us in exchange for you not building any more nukes for the next 6 months!!  PRETTY PLEASE!!!"

This is in sharp contrast to those of us (Trump?) that have a Biblical world view.  We know for certain that God has the whole situation under control and that no bombs will go off destroying the world because the Bible says it's not going to happen!  There is a much different ending coming for planet earth.

We also rest in the fact that there is NO COUNTRY and NO LEADER that God has not allowed.

So we laugh at little rocket man and take great joy in Trump's stupid Tweet about having a bigger button on his desk.

Think of "Little Rocket Man" of North Korea as you read this Psalm.  Focus on how God laughs at these people who believe they are so strong and so mighty.

Psalm 52
Why do you boast of evil, you mighty hero?
    Why do you boast all day long,
    you who are a disgrace in the eyes of God?
2 You who practice deceit,
    your tongue plots destruction;
    it is like a sharpened razor.
3 You love evil rather than good,
    falsehood rather than speaking the truth.[c]
4 You love every harmful word,
    you deceitful tongue!

5 Surely God will bring you down to everlasting ruin:
    He will snatch you up and pluck you from your tent;
    he will uproot you from the land of the living.
6 The righteous will see and fear;
    they will laugh at you, saying,
7 “Here now is the man
    who did not make God his stronghold
but trusted in his great wealth
    and grew strong by destroying others!”
