It\u2019s deception on a grand scale this time, and here\u2019s how it\u2019s done\u2026<\/em><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the second time in as many years, Iran has once again made the right moves towards proving to the world that it is not, and will not be pursuing a nuclear weapons program. This time it announced it\u2019s halting its 20% enriched uranium, and has a solid partner in Russia to help make this happen. As one would expect, the US-led axis bloc has completely ignored this important development, opting instead to soldier forward on a predictable war path which the bellicose Israeli lobby running the US Congress and Senate has been campaigning for all these years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>When lawyers become Presidents<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You can see why Obama was the candidate of choice for the Democratic Neoliberal machine in the US. As a lawyer-cum-salesman, he is a master in <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.whale.to\/b\/nlp_q.html\">NLP<\/a>, and casting verbal smokescreens \u2014 very generous with words, but very stingy when it comes to conclusions. White House spin doctors and focus group pollsters have already established that Obama\u2019s core supporters don\u2019t actually listen to the content of his speeches, most will suspend critical thought in favour of the joy they receive by simply hearing the sound of his voice. This allows the President to deliver a <em>style,<\/em> featuring a well-rehearsed cadence, rather than any specific meaning. \u00a0By the time you finish listening to one of his long-winded conversations, it\u2019s hard to actually recall what\u2019s actually been said. Another aspect of this technique is to stretch out the answers to questions, before eventually contradicting one\u2019s self, leaving the average TV viewer in an induced state of intellectual paralysis.<\/p>\n<p>During the President\u2019s recently staged interview with the CFR, Trialteral\u00a0Commission\u00a0and Bilderberg\u2019s own embedded \u2018journalist\u2019, <strong>Charlie Rose<\/strong>, Obama was asked directly whether or not he thought that Iranian voters choice of moderate\u00a0President-elect Hassan Rowhani, was significant and could this a be positive development in terms of US diplomacy with Iran.\u00a0In typical Obama style, he gave a verbose, highly vague, nonspecific answer, followed by:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cOur bottom lines have been: show the international community that you are abiding by international treaties and obligations \u2014 that you are <\/em><em>not developing a nuclear weapon, based on that, there are a whole range of measure that can be taken to normalise relations between Iran and the whole world, but we don\u2019t know yet if they are going to take up that offer, they have not been during my entire my first term when we showed ourselves open to these discussions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cMy general view is we are open to discussions, both through the P5+1, and through potential bilateral channels, and we recognise that you\u2019re not going solve problems all up front as a pre-condition for talks, but \u00a0There has to be a serious recognition that the sanctions we put in place against Iran \u2014 the most power economic sanctions \u00a0that have ever been applied against Iran, that those will not be lifted in the absence of significant steps in showing the international community that Iran is not pursuing a \u00a0nuclear weapon. As long as there is an understanding about the basis of the conversation, then I think there is no reason why we should not proceed\u2026 \u201c<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Incredible. The ambiguity in Obama\u2019s answers and the classic NLP \u2018anchoring\u2019\u00a0techniques used throughout the interview are not accidental, they\u2019re intentional. Constant fuzziness and communicative misdirection. This has become the hallmark of nearly every Obama public statement. Unfortunately for Americans, Iranians and the rest of the peace-loving world, this is what we are stuck with as a President in America for now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Obama is a microphone for K Street<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, the White House has completely ignored the significant announcement that \u00a0Iran has confirmed it will halt its enrichment of 20-percent uranium, with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey\u00a0Lavrov still urging the West to end their sanctions against Tehran. Still, no answer from the west. Maybe Obama\u2019s speech writers need a few weeks to figure out \u2018<em>what it all means\u2019. <\/em>They should have a statement ready by the time the Obamas return from their $100 million African safari vacation.<em><br \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em id=\"__mceDel\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" title=\"PHOTO: Deceiving the world over Iran.\" src=\"http:\/\/tvcontinental.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Obama-and-Netanyahu.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" \/><\/em><br \/>General thinking in the neocortex of Washington, which takes place within the CFR, \u00a0neoconservative think tanks and on the kosher end of K Street, is that Iranian claims \u00a0are all lies, made up as part of Iran\u2019s campaign of international propaganda designed to conceal its evil plans to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.<\/p>\n<p>Sounds like a comic book plot, doesn\u2019t it? <em>That\u2019s because it is.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So we have lawyers making deals with lobbyists.

In addition, the UN has a built-in blind spot for Israel who is somehow exempt from any jurisdiction regarding nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, you have never heard the White House answer a question on any of that, nor will you ever hear Charlie Rose ask those questions, and you probably never will.<\/p>\n<p><strong>US \u2018diplomacy\u2019 based on public deception<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>President Obama and his advisers are well aware that Iran is not on track to produce any nuclear weapons, so Obama\u2019s line that he understands that \u2018you\u2019re not going solve problems all up front as a pre-condition for talks\u2019 is disingenuous at best, and a cynical lie targeting American voters at its worst. Washington is afraid of diplomatic talks with Iran because it would force the west to voice their true demands in public which appears to be something along the lines of, \u201cShut down your nuclear power program first, and then we can begin talking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The reality, of course, is that the Anglo-American foreign policy on Iran has never been\u00a0and will never feature (under the current rulings powers anyway) any real political diplomacy, or \u201cbilateral discussions\u201d as Obama refers to them. Obama\u2019s intentionally ambiguous comments should reiterate this obvious fact. Rather, the policy is, was, and will be that of its two client state powers in the region Israel and Saudi Arabia \u2014 which is a policy of war, designed to maintain hegemony by either eliminating or severely crippling their chief economic and political rival in the region.<\/p>\n<p>The US, its allies and Israel have already declared war on Iran by imposing binding economic sanctions in the absence of any actual evidence of Iran having a nuclear weapons program. Yes, you heard that right \u00a0&#8211; the war has already begun. The timing of their game in Syria is design to cripple each of Iran\u2019s remaining allies in the region, Syria, and then Hezbollah in Lebanon \u2014 all in advance of their final push towards Iran.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also worth pointing out that the loud mouth on Iran\u2019s still nonexistent nuclear threat is Israel \u2014 a country who have refused to allow nuclear inspectors into its country and who, unlike Iran, refused to sign the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/List_of_parties_to_the_Nuclear_Non-Proliferation_Treaty\"><strong>Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty<\/strong><\/a>, making Israel\u2019s leading role in all of this highly suspect to say the least.<br \/><em id=\"__mceDel\"><\/em><em id=\"__mceDel\"><\/em><em id=\"__mceDel\"><\/em><em id=\"__mceDel\"><\/em><em id=\"__mceDel\"><br \/><\/em>Understand when you watch this tedious interview (below), that all of Charlie Rose\u2019s questions were vetted in advance, and those that weren\u2019t, were given to Rose by the White House.

Rowhani insisted that Iran\u2019s nuclear activities are<em>\u201cwithin the framework of law,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0and dubbed the international sanctions\u00a0<em>\u201cbaseless.\u201d<br \/><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Despite numerous accusations by Israel and the US that it is secretly conducting military nuclear research, Iran has maintained that its nuclear program is only for civilian purposes.<\/p>\n<p>At his first media conference since winning the presidential elections, Rowhani \u2014 who previously headed Iran\u2019s delegation during nuclear talks with the six world powers \u2014 said that Tehran\u2019s nuclear activities\u00a0<em>\u201care already transparent,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0but\u00a0<em>\u201cthe only way to end the sanctions is to increase the transparency and trust\u201d<\/em>\u00a0between Iran and the international community.<\/p>\n<p>Washington has been expecting changes in Iran\u2019s hardline stance on the nuclear issue following the country\u2019s presidential elections.
