Former Minister of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards: Kill the Americans!
In an interview with the defense reporter from the Iranian regime-run Fars News Agency, Mohsen Rafiqdoost, the former minister of the Revolutionary Guards, discussed the Islamic uprisings in the Middle East and Iran’s corresponding role: “When people gain awareness and rise up, they become victorious. It is this populist support, as well as the support offered by the Iranian government to these protests, that is enough; we do not need to directly meddle.”
Rafiqdoost, in reference to the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran, stated: “Our revolution, in comparison to the movements that people in the region have undertaken, was much greater. Our people rose up against the fifth largest non-nuclear army in the world and won.”
He continued:
We fought for a full year on the streets and then we found ourselves climbing up the tanks; but the Egyptians climbed the tanks too soon in their movement. I hope they do not get fooled and are not diverted from their path and mission….The fact that our people and our government support these protests emboldens the citizens of those countries and will make them victorious.
Rafiqdoost added: “We must publicize the issue of a possible U.S. military attack on Libya and announce that anytime the U.S. military’s presence is felt, it should be turned into their graveyard. We must give a directive to the people of the various regions that they should, without hesitation, kill the first American who steps foot on their land. I had openly said this during the imposed war (Iran-Iraq) as well, and it is for that reason that I cannot travel abroad.”
As a side note: Mohsen Rafiqdoost, as the minister of the Revolutionary Guards, was personally responsible for establishing ties with various terrorist groups around the world, as well as funding and arming them. Also, four years after the Marine barracks bombing in Beirut, Mohsen Rafiqdoost boasted that “both the TNT and the ideology, which in one blast sent to hell 400 officers, NCOs, and soldiers at the Marines headquarters, were provided by Iran.”





“Rafiqdoost added: “We must publicize the issue of a possible U.S. military attack on Libya and announce that anytime the U.S. military’s presence is felt, it should be turned into their graveyard.”
You see, an American attack on Libya would only be used as a propaganda tool for the Muslims throughout the middle east. After our adventures in Iraq and Afghanistan, do we really, really, need to give them another reason to unite against us? Libya is one of many North African civil wars. Let the Libyans work it out. We should stay out of it and let them decide what type of madman they want leading them. There is no reason for us to get involved there when we have absolutely no national interests at stake. If the Europeans are so concerned about a no-fly zone and intervening, let them do it for once. Libya is a lot closer to Europe than it is to the United States. For once in their lazy lives, let the Europeans handle it. And when mission creep sets in and the intervention ends up becoming more complicated and more expensive than anticipated, the Europeans can learn what it feels like to pay for another war in yet another worthless arab country.
Very Bright, Let’s let the people fight Airplanes with Rocks… That’s your american brain capacity, It’s not your fault, Like your peasant terrorist president Husein Obama and Ayatollah Jimmy Carter
Mohareb Irani: I’m with Libertyship46 on this: Why should America spend blood and treasure to make another Arab country safe Sharia. We have already done that in two countries, we don’t need to do it in a third.
Hey Mohareb, newsflash for you. They are not my people and, for once in your miserable lives, why don’t you use your own rocks! Freedom is not free, buddy, you have to earn it. START EARNING IT! If you want this homicidal maniac out of office, then do it. Because, if we do it for you, we will simply be accused, as always, by the entire Islamic world of being an “imperialistic” power, trying to “steal” land away from arabs or some other Muslims. Well, forget it. If the Egyptians could overthrow Mubarak, then the Libyans can overthrow Gaddafi. If they cannot do it, then clearly not enough Libyans were willing to risk their skins to overthrow this madman, especially those in the Air Force or the Army. This is NOT America’s problem. The Arab world created Gaddafi and kept him in power for over 40 years. So now if you want to get rid of him, then do it.
Like I said, this is NOT our problem. It’s yours. And the sooner Muslims realize this, the sooner you can get rid of maniacs like Gaddafi or phsychotic mullahs in Iran.
What an imbecilic statement! For the entier 20th centurey the United States has been pulling Europe nd half the world out of the messes they’ve gotten themelsves into. Does anyone remember the Balkans where the Americans, NOT the Europeans whose immediate neighbors they were, spent much blood and treasure defending MUSLIMS. This was Europe’s BACKYARD! And yet they had not the slightest inkling to get involved.
Well the Maghreb has been a European playground for a very long time: Italians, French, the list goes on. As Liberty Ship said, it’s time the Europeans “flexed a little muscle” in their own backyard — especially against a dictator whom NO ONE in the entire WORLD would yell at the for. That is, there is NO, as in ZERO (0) political downside to the Europeans creating a no-fly-zone which would probably bring Qaddafi down if implemented well.
We fought our battle of Tripoli about 300 years ago and need not do it again –we had practically NOTHING to fight with, created a Marin Corps out of NOTHING and beat the Berbers solid whilst the Europeans with navies large, were eagerly playing ransom before and afteer! I think that sums up the idference betwween the USA and Europe quite well.
This time it’s YOUR problem. Especially for allowing such an obvious rapist of his own people — a person who makes Saddam Husein LOOK GOOD for that matter — cut “back room deals” with the UK and Scotland — what a sham that was!
No, I fully support Liberty Ship, it’s time you fools own up to your measly military spending and clean up your own not so large a mess just a few hundred kilometers south of Italy. Oil could be contracted out to every European nation that participated in the military endeavor. Find you balls and use them! I don’t think we’d have a problem with that.

That terrorist knows too well, the largest army in the area did not shoot . In fact there 50000 troops ready to march in after Bakhtiar left, but Fardoost who had deserted to Khomeini told Qarabaghi that the constitution stated that the army could only be used if the borders were threatened.
What would people think if we said “Death to the Iranians!” during the uprisings in 1979? What would people think if we said “Death to the Iranians” every time Hamas did another terrorist attack?
–So why does this disgusting worm get away with proclaiming this unabashed evil hate?
HELLO? LEFTISTS? ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION?
Oh, sorry, I mistook you for someone who REALLY cared. Join their party and dance while the world as you know it burns under your feet…
Where it concerns Libya: I don’t think that Rafiqdoost, in reference to the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran has any reason to worry about any threat coming from the 2008 Liberal Islamic Revolution aka Obama in the USA.
The only difference is that they are on one side of the world while we are on the other side. Both nations are ruled by radicals that in the name of some god hate their own people and do everything within their power possible to destroy their respective countries.
Ditto for all western countries when a mooslime puts their paws on western soil.
It would appear that it is high time we pulled all Americans and American capital out of the Middle East and opened the entire US to oil exploration and drilling. Oil is the only justification for any type of relationship with these less than desireable countries.
We must eliminate any dependence on these totally unstable countries and hence forth deal with them for what they are, radical entities anchored in a world closer to the stone age than to the 21st century.
They obviously want to be left to their own self determination, so lets leave them and stand back and watch.

That and Nuclear Power Plants my friend!
Hey Rafiqdoost, a fatwa has been issued on the behalf of the American people that if they ever see you they will put a whompin’ on your sleezy rearend that you will never forget.
Yup…we knew it was Iran, but diplomacy kept us from doing what needed to get done…
And I’ve been after this turd my whole adult life now
Reza Khalili has once again provided us with inside information regarding the inner workings of the most corrupt regime on earth: the IRI. It is with continued knowledge from him published here and his own blog that we will become ever more prepared to react against any Iranian provocation.
Right now we have a president who clearly, if not likes Ahmidinejad, then at leat appears to respect the “Islamic nature” of the stoning of women, general misogamy, and daily hanging which occur in Tehran for no reason whatsoever now!
Indeed it was even disclosed that the long lost (and forgotten for dead) Israeli Air Force Pilot Ron Arad has been DIRECTLY sighted by a prisoner released not one year ago from the Evin prison — in a special dungeon build entirely underground so that the sun is never seen. This would be like holding John McCain for 30(!) years past the end of the Vietnam war… WHY?
For whatever reason this doesn’t seem to bother our president as both the Israeli Pilot and an American FBI agent are both reported alive, sick, and in chains in the Iranian prison.
I bring these up merely to point out that each time Khalili informs the US Public through his articles and blogs of greater detailed aspects regarding the Iranian regime which naturally leaves us all in disgust, the American PUBLIC, not the President, inches that much closer to taking harsher action on Iran — by helping their civilians by implementing our own “no fly zone” or any of a myriad of other solutions Khalili has proposed in previous articles.
I can only hope that the pressure of the the US public is such that our President will not be able to turn his famous deaf ear to us any longer and will expend the very small amount of energy in firing a few well places missiles on top of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard buildings, the Basij centers, and the Government buildings.
Not 10 missiles you tip the scales in Iran right now!
Thank you Khalili and to anyone who has not read his book, it’s well worth the read!
