Radical Shia Clerics with an Apocalyptic Vision Are Calling the Shots in Iran
(U.S. State Department) Secretary of State Marco Rubio interviewed by Sean Hannity - Secretary of State Marco Rubio discussed Iran on Fox News on Monday: "We are talking about a regime that has slaughtered tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of their own people throughout this so-called revolution. If that's what they're willing to do to their own people, imagine what they would do to Americans or others in the region or Israelis or anybody if they had a nuclear weapon. They have no regard for the lives of anyone else." "The problem with Iran is the revolution, and that's what governs in that country. It's not the government officials you see with suits that go on "Meet the Press" and get this free pass on American media....Who calls the shots in Iran are radical Shia clerics with an apocalyptic vision of the future. They believe that it is their religious calling to trigger the last days of the world and the apocalypse." "I know this sounds like something from a movie, but it is the reality. It is the stated purpose of their revolution. People like that can never possess a nuclear weapon, because they will use it to blackmail the world and to kill people. It is an unacceptable risk." "Every dollar that Iran has, what they have done over the last 30 years is anytime they get money...they don't use that money to improve the life of the Iranian people. They use that money to do two things: build weapons for themselves and export the revolution. They use the money to fund Hizbullah; they use the money to fund Hamas; they use the money to fund Shia militias in Iraq....They use the money to sponsor terrorism and assassination plots all over the world."
