Freeing the Persians

from Tea With George · host George Caylor, Diane Gruber, Steve Putney

June 7 Freeing the PersiansHello, I'm George Caylor, and today's session of "Get Real" is with John Vassar. John is an expert in logistics, military strategy, history, and he's current with almost everything you can think of and a lot of things you haven't thought of.  Well, John, the Iran war has been suspended, let's say, and they're in peace talks. I absolutely don't trust the Iranians. I don't trust the ayatollahs, that is. I don't trust them with anything. They lie. And they, according to the religion, they lie legally, and they lie theologically. And so, the advice, what advice would you give Mr. Trump in this war right now? Well, George, thank you for having me, and as I always, if you're out there in the audience that disagree with my opinion, you may be right. My view of this topic is that a situation where we have to get some kind of legal authority to take kinetic action, further kinetic action, against Iran. Now, we know that we've been at war with them since 1979, 1980, when they declared war on us. What President Trump's trying to get them to do is to sign a letter of understanding or some kind of agreement that he knows they will break because under their religious doctrine, treaties with the infidels aren't worth the paper they're written on. But once he has that document in his hand and they violate it, then he has the authority to go in and strike. Now, he's also in another – between Iraq and a hard place was the fact that the Persian population in Iran – and Iran's real name is Persia – they are on our side. They are very warm towards Israel, towards Jews in general, and they are under the control of horrendously evil despots. So far, there have been 189 uprisings that are being viciously put down. Yesterday, they hung one of their most popular athletes for criticizing the government, did a public hanging of it. So we're dealing with a tremendously despotic regime  They are trying to dig up their ICBMs, which they put in storage. The atomic material – satellite pictures show them trying to recover that material. Only us and the Chinese actually have the technology to get that material out, so we will need probably their cooperation. Unfortunately, if we go kinetic, we will have to take out the civilian infrastructure. We're talking about mass casualties among people that we are – we feel quite warm to the Persians, a wonderful group of people, and they will suffer, innocent people suffer. And that sits very heavily on President Trump. But sometimes, we're in the same situation we were in dealing with Nazi Germany. We had American pilots and French pilots dropping bombs on French communities that were occupied by the Nazis to get to the Nazis. The French, if you ever saw the movie The Longest Day, there's a scene where a French admiral is telling his ships, the crew of his battleship, this huge monstrous battleship that they're going to have to fire on their own people to liberate France because the Germans had mixed themselves up with the population. So he said, we will be tacking our own communities and we're going to have to make a very difficult decision. You see, if Iran gets the atomic bomb, which they could – very close to getting, they claim they have enough to build six atomic weapons. This was the whole reason this war got started. And they have the delivery systems to deliver them. This could be a terrible, terrible situation for the whole world because they have an apocalyptic mindset that they believe that it is up to them to create an apocalypse that will cause the 12th Emon to emerge from hiding. And that's the goal, the entire goal. Also another bad sign is that the leadership has been moving their families and their money out of the country. Recently the prime minister of Iran resigned and he said – he just basically has given up and he says he has a family. So he himself will be leaving the country shortly. So the future does not look very good. And I don't blame President Trump at all. I think what he did is he did the right thing. He's trying to save the world from problems in the future. I have a good friend who was in Iran during the revolution and he was able to get out. He and his family were there and they were able to get out. It was extraordinarily hairy trying to get out during the revolution. The revolutionary people captured our embassy, which was almost never heard of that you would capture another country's embassy. They held our people hostage. And it was such a violation of everything civilized. And when Mr. Reagan was elected, the day he took office, they released the hostages because they knew they were up against somebody else. It wasn't going to be Jimmy Carter, it was going to be Ronald Reagan and they were afraid and they released them. But I remember at our – I went to a church in Atlanta at the time and when the Shah was in power, these young Persians walked into our church and asked if they could talk to the people. They were pretty insistent. And the preacher, I didn't think he should have, but he said, go ahead. And they said we need America's support in deposing the Shah. He's bad. Less than a year later, they were back in our church. We need help in deposing the Ayatollah. He's bad. And I thought, why can't these people make up their mind? What is the main danger for us if we don't end this regime successfully? The regime needs to be taken out completely. They need to be gone because as long as they're in power and they have access – the most important thing is they have access to atomic – military atomic energy. Not civil because we've offered them atomic fuel. When they – we told them, you don't have to mine your own uranium.You don't have to enrich it. We will supply you free of charge of all the atomic fuel you need. One of the things I could never understand is that Iran has at least four centuries' worth of natural energy – oil, gas, hydroelectric – to go for centuries. Why are they interested in atomic power? Well, they have a perfect right to build atomic reactors if they wish. I don't know whether they are signatories to the Non-Proliferation Treaty or not, but we have offered them – our president has offered them a signed contract to provide them with the fuel for their atomic reactors, much cheaper than going to war with them. It would be better for them, better for us, better for everyone.  (click on "listen" for remaining interview.)Support the show#Political/Conservative/Judeo/Christian/Constitutional
