Iran the colonizer
Since “colonizer” is a popular epithet used for Israel by Israel-haters, although the word doesn’t fit, maybe it’s time to popularize it for a country whose behavior merits it: Iran.
Iran specializes in taking over already-destabilized Arab countries and establishing terrorist military presences there. Lebanon and Hezbollah are prime examples. It’s true that Islam often has bloody borders, but it has bloody insides as well.
Here’s testimony from an American of Lebanese birth. I highly recommend reading the whole thing, but this is an excerpt:
Syria and Iran, using Hezbollah and their own agents, began assassinating any [Lebanese] leader who opposed them. They killed Christians and Sunnis alike. In 2005, Bashar Al Assad ‘summoned’ Prime Minister Rafik Hariri (a Sunni Muslim) to Damascus and ‘ordered’ him to do something, threatening that if he did not toe the line, Assad would ‘break his head’. Hariri did not toe the line and was assassinated in February 2005. Hezbollah were the ones who committed the act.
The cowardly Iranian regime had established Hezbollah as a proxy to fight Israel. In essence, cowardly Iran used Lebanon to fight Israel, causing the destruction of Lebanon while Iranian territory remained safe.
So back to my first thought. The opposition cannot handle the truth. The only thing they can do is call us names.
I have thick skin. We have gone through a lot of trials and tribulations and adversity wreaked upon us by these savage terroristic animals.
Thank you, Israel, for Nasrallah’s demise. It may create an opportunity for peace, but only if Lebanese leaders have the courage to seize the moment.
I will repeat what the terrorists and their supporters don’t want to hear: The Iranian Regime, The Syrian Regime, all proxies of Iran, Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis, ISIS, Al Qaeda, The PLO, Islamic Jihad, PJ, PFLP, Syrian Baathist Party, all the Communist parties, all of these and more have been CANCERS in the World. They oppress their own people and us alike. They are savage animals who are stuck in the seventh century with the mentality of brutal conquests and war.
Call me what you like. I was born a Phoenician, not an Arab. The terrorists took away my county, but God gave me America. I am grateful and I am blessed.
What will Israel do next? Many people say – and I agree – that it’s time to take out Iran’s nuclear sites. Biden, of course, says the opposite:
Biden says "no," he does not support an attack on Iran's nuclear sites by Israel.
Kamala and Biden have botched virtually every aspect of the Middle East conflict since the 10/7 attack (nearly a year ago). President Trump will deliver PEACE! pic.twitter.com/nKiT2ST3Kk

Here’s what Netanyahu said in response to Iran’s attack on Israel:
Well, doing the opposite of what Biden says is probably a good idea in general. Who was it that said he’s been on the wrong side of every major foreign policy issue for over 40 years?
The “colonizer”/settler narrative has long been replete with ironies. The US is a settler country, created from Europeans who colonized the continent. And people not from Europe have also colonized the US. Arabs and others in the US who denounce settler/colonial Israel are themselves settlers and colonialists in the US, which is itself a settler/colonialist country.
I am reminded of the “genocide” label applied to Israel. If Israel were genocidal, there would be a LOT more than 40,000 dead Gazans. Moreover, it is not difficult to find in Hamas and Hezbollah genocidal attitudes towards the Jews.
Tablet (2015): Did Netanyahu Put Anti-Semitic Words in Hezbollah’s Mouth?
The Tablet articles goes on to point out that many considered this a fabrication on Netanyahu’s part. Turns out it was NOT a fabrication.
According to the Hamas/Hezbollah/Iran crowd, there’s good genocide, and there’s bad genocide. Bad genocide: what the Israelis are capable of doing, but refuse to do. Good genocide: what Hezbollah/Hamas/Iran want to do to the Jews, but do not yet have the capability of doing. ( Hezbollah’s atrocities in Argentina point out that it isn’t Zionists Hezbollah wants to kill, but Jews.)
“According to the Hamas/Hezbollah/Iran crowd, there’s good genocide, and there’s bad genocide. Bad genocide: what the Israelis are capable of doing, but refuse to do. Good genocide: what Hezbollah/Hamas/Iran want to do to the Jews, but do not yet have the capability of doing.
The Jews are just the first on Islam’s genocidal list. The world’s LGBTQ+ crowd, its atheists, agnostics, Hindus, Buddhists, pagans, etc. etc. are all on the list of those to be slaughtered.
Christians, being “people of the book” get the ‘option’ of repeatedly paying the jizya tax with its acceptance of enslavement. Since non-Muslims in the Ummah effectively have no rights, Christians claiming that paying the jizya tax secures second class citizenship are simply whistling past the graveyard.
Of course, every infidel can escape death through conversion. That only requires that you sell your soul by affirming that Muhammad, the mass murdering, rapist pedophile was the “perfect man” and Islam will let you live.
All of which demonstrates that Islam is not a religion worthy of the name. Islam is a violently expansionist, murderous and totalitarian ideology that wraps itself in a facade of religious pretense. In its basic tenets, it is inarguably a death cult and arguably, Satanic in nature.
I have friends from Lebanon, husband and wife both doctors. He is actually an Iraqi and both are Christians. They took another friend to Beirut some years ago when it was safe. I have Christian Palestinian friends. I helped the son of one of them get into medical school. They invited us to a party to celebrate and the young friends of the son entertained us with belly dancing. The girls had been taking lesson. Lovely people.
The Christian Palestinians left years ago.
