Fars News Agency—Iran Rejects US Conditions to Recertify Nuclear Deal as “Worthless”:

“The US has a long-term experience of raising allegations and projecting the blame on Iran and this story will continue given the US excessive demands and the type of Iran’s view of the US and its excessive demands,” Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi told reporters in a press conference in Tehran on Monday.

“We should not take seriously the words which are in vain and worthless because such words are continuously repeated and I think that they will not yield any results for the US,” he added.

Qassemi also lashed out at Washington for its troubled compliance with the nuclear deal, and said that due to such attempts Iran has not been able to fully benefit from the internationally-endorsed agreement.

In relevant remarks on Saturday, Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif denied the US president’s demands for recertifying the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, reiterating that Trump’s terms are “improper” and “unacceptable”.

“A member of a multilateral agreement cannot set conditions for it. They had earlier raised a number of conditions which were improper. Their new terms are also improper. Principally, any condition is inappropriate,” Zarif told reporters on the sidelines of a forum in Tehran.

He underlined the necessity for the international community to ensure Washington’s respect for Iran’s rights as a country which has complied with the nuclear deal, adding, “This is our current problem.”

“The Americans escape forward to shun implementation of their undertakings and ask for some prerequisites. The international community is fully aware that none of these conditions is even worth of studying; therefore, the Americans are emphatically required to comply with their undertakings as fast as possible,” Zarif said.

SnyderTalk Comment:

World leaders have waited too long to deal with Islamist terrorists.  The cost of their failure will be higher than most people can imagine.

Iran is the leading global sponsor of Islamist terrorism.  While Iranian leaders talk a lot about the U.S., they are fixated on Israel.  They intend to “wipe Israel off the map”.  We know that, because they have told us about their intentions repeatedly for years.

Iran has close ties with Hezbollah, Hamas, and other Islamist terrorist groups that are committed to destroying Israel.  We don’t know everything that Iranian leaders have done to prepare for the day that they will launch their attack.  I’m positive that they have some big surprises up their sleeves.

It will be a multi-pronged attack involving every Islamist terrorist group with which Iranian leaders have partnered over the years.  I don’t know exactly how Russia, China, and Turkey are involved in the Iranian leaders’ plans, but I’m convinced those countries and others will be involved.

I expect North Korea to play an important part in the plan.  It may be something as simple as occupying the U.S. military in the East China Sea or the Sea of Japan during the attack.  Their involvement may include a nuclear attack.  I don’t rule out that possibility.

I don’t know when Iran will launch the attack, but I don’t think it’s too far off, a few years at most.  The day the attack occurs will be Day One of a global war the likes of which the world has never seen.

I think Yahweh put President Trump in his position to defend Israel during the attack.  If he doesn’t do that, the United States will be in great danger.

If this sounds far-fetched, think of it as scenario planning.  Military leaders use scenario planning routinely to prepare for every eventuality.  It’s something that I learned how to do informally as a boy, but I learned to do it professionally when I got a Ph.D. degree.  I did it and taught it for 25 years as a professor at the University of Virginia.

Something very much like the scenario I’ve described is a real possibility.  I think it has a very high probability of coming about.  In the fullness of time, all of the important puzzle pieces will become evident.  I’ll flesh out my scenario as new information is made available.

Switching Gears Slightly

Yahweh doesn’t do scenario planning.  He knows all the possibilities, but He also knows exactly what will happen.

In the Bible, Yahweh told us what to watch for.  He also told us to sound the alarm, or blow the trumpet as it were, when we see things taking shape.  That’s what I’m doing.

Yahweh explained it to Ezekiel this way:

And the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, “Son of man, speak to the sons of your people and say to them, ‘If I bring a sword upon a land, and the people of the land take one man from among them and make him their watchman, and he sees the sword coming upon the land and blows on the trumpet and warns the people, then he who hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, and a sword comes and takes him away, his blood will be on his own head. He heard the sound of the trumpet but did not take warning; his blood will be on himself. But had he taken warning, he would have delivered his life. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned, and a sword comes and takes a person from them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require from the watchman’s hand.’” (Ezekiel 33: 1-6)

I take Yahweh seriously.  Since I can see things that are heading our way, I have an obligation to blow the trumpet.

Right now, I’m sharing my opinions and providing evidence that supports them.  Regular SnyderTalk readers should know that.

At this point, I freely admit that I may be wrong.  I don’t think I am, but it’s a possibility.

I don’t want to be responsible for what might happen to you or to anyone else.  That’s why I’m sharing my views.

For what it’s worth, I’m preparing for what I’ve described.  I hope you take this warning seriously.

A Side Note

I think the day will come when you will need those weapons that “liberal progressives” are trying to confiscate.  That’s why I refuse to remain silent while they do their dirty work.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
