The Rocketeer

AND THE RACKETEERS

From the Free Beacon,  Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Aerospace and Missile Force:

“At this time, the Americans are telling [us]: ‘Don’t talk about missile affairs, and if you conduct a test or maneuver, don’t mention it...If we agree to this, they will advance another step, and say: ‘Don’t conduct [a missile test] at this time, and also don’t do it in the Persian Gulf region.’ After that, they will tell us: ‘Why do you need your missiles to have a range of 2,000 km [anyway?]?’...After that, they will tell [us]: ‘Next, we will check whether your missiles can really carry nuclear weapons. Bring us the details [of the missiles].’ After that, they will say: ‘We need to set up cameras.’ And, finally, they will say: ‘Either saw [the missiles up into pieces] or, like [Libyan dictator Mu’ammar] Gadhafi, load them onto a ship and hand [them] over to us.’”

It's really refreshing to see someone standing up to the Obama Administration on behalf of Free Speech.

Even if it is one of Iran's rocketeers, hell-bent on pointing ICBMs at America with the money Obama gave them. Free Speech is so important.

Would this government really enter into an agreement with the Iranians to deceive the American public? That would mean Obama and the State Department regard the Iranians as their allies and Americans as their mutual opponents.

Nah. That's just not possible. I know--let's ask Ben Rhodes.

He'll tell us the truth.

Eventually.
