"Can the world afford to sit and wait for Armageddon?" "Yes, we can!"

If there's one article you read this month, Pajamas Media's exclusive interview is it. An Iranian -- who infiltrated the Revolutionary Guard for U.S. intelligence agencies -- has implicated Iran's mullahs in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. A bomb hidden in a suitcase exploded aboard the flight and killed 270 people. Among the dead were entire families and many children, including toddlers and babies. And now, he reports, they are well on their way to nuclear weapons and a man-made apocalypse.

The men who ordered the destruction of the Pan Am flight over Lockerbie and the bombings of the Marine Corps barracks in Lebanon, the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, and the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia are pursuing the nuclear program in Iran and with one goal in mind: to obtain The Bomb.

And they want to destroy you.


After the Iranian Revolution, I was an officer in the Revolutionary Guards. I was also a spy... [and had] access to the Khomeini regime’s deep secrets and a firsthand look at the unfolding horror: torture, rapes, executions, assassinations, suicide bombers, training of terrorists, and the transfer of arms and explosives to other countries to support terrorist attacks. I risked my life and my family’s trying to expose this regime because I believed it should be stopped. Once again I incur such risks to bring awareness that lack of action endangers the world.

...Tehran knows full well it is in a race, and if it is able to perfect the technology, the West will have no choice but to live with a nuclear Iran. It also believes that after the current President Bush, the next U.S. administration (if led by a Democrat) will most likely reduce forces and slowly move out, leaving it for the Iraqis to sort things out, which ultimately will result in Iran’s domination of the region, with catastrophic consequences for the Free World. This has already happened with Hezbollah. Iran armed and trained Hezbollah into a political force in Lebanon which controls events on the ground, limiting the power of the Lebanese government and even confronting Israel as we saw in the 2006 Lebanon war...

...Iran’s current defense minister, Mostafa Najjar, was in charge of the Revolutionary Guards forces in Lebanon that facilitated the attack on the Marine Corps barracks in Beirut on Oct. 23, 1983, killing 241 U.S. servicemen with the largest non-nuclear bomb in history. The current deputy defense minister, Ahmad Vahidi... is currently on Interpol’s Most Wanted List for the attack on the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires on July 18, 1994. That attack killed 87 and injured more than 100...

...The most radical Islamists control the government in Iran. The Revolutionary Guards’ reach is all-encompassing: they control the vital industries in Iran, serve as ministers in President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s cabinet, are members of the Parliament, control events in Iraq, Lebanon and the Palestinian Territory through their Quds Force, and expand their terror network throughout the world, all the while making inroads in nuclear enrichment and missile-delivery technology.

...It is not an exaggeration to claim that the radicals belonging to the secretive society called “Hojjatieh,” who are devoted to the 12th Imam, have taken control of all vital positions in Iran. Ayatollah Janati, the head of the Guardian Council in charge of interpreting the constitution, supervising elections, and approving of candidates running for public office, has been very vocal about his opposition to the West: “We are anti-American and we are America’s enemy,” and “Non-Muslims are animals roaming the planet.” They believe that the 12th Imam supports their agenda of obtaining nuclear weapons and destroying Israel in order to start the chaos necessary for the final destruction of what they see as American imperialism and Israeli Zionism...

...Khamenei put out a statement to the world in 2008 that God would punish Iranians if they did not support the country's disputed nuclear program, and any stop in the continuation of the nuclear work would be against God's will. Ahmadinejad, in a recent 2008 speech, told the audience that the "enemy" (referring to the U.S. and Israel) and their superficial power are on a path to destruction, and that the countdown to their total destruction has begun....

The rulers in Iran believe it is their duty to prepare the circumstances for the reappearance of the 12th Imam. "Our Revolution's main mission is to pave the way for the reappearance of the 12th Imam, Imam Mahdi," Ahmadinejad said during a speech in 2005 to leaders from across the country. Shiites believe the reappearance of the 12th Imam will bring justice and peace to the world by establishing Islam throughout the world. They believe he will reappear when the world has fallen into chaos...

...It is believed the chaos will start in Afghanistan and then move into Iraq, where there will be blood and destruction everywhere (already in the works) and from there to the world with burning dark clouds (nuclear war). The 12th Imam will then come to destroy the "Dajjal," the False Messiah, free the world from oppression and aggression, and then bring justice where it will be heaven on earth for many years to come. It is said Jesus will reappear at the same time and fight alongside Mahdi.

Members of the Iranian leadership say they have a "signed contract" with the 12th Imam and are doggedly pursuing nuclear weapons to bring on that catastrophe. Iran's president, Ahmadinejad, has said that Israel must be destroyed (2005 "World without Zionism" speech, "Israel must be wiped off the map"). This is no idle threat...

[They believe] in Islam's conquest of the world through the coming of the 12th Imam mandates their actions, and — just as a suicide bomber — they are not even interested in their own survival and cannot be diverted from their chosen path. The question is: Can the world afford to sit idly by and wait for Armageddon?

If you're a "progressive", the answer to that question is "yes, we can!"
