British-directed coup in Iran

June 22, 2009 (LPAC)-- The British Empire was caught in the act as its agents were working intensively to turn a legitimate protest against the June 12 presidential elections in Iran, into a bloody "revolution". Following several days of protests by supporters of candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi, who was reportedly defeated in the disputed elections by sitting president Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, the Iranian supreme religious leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addressed the nation on the Friday prayer, June 19, where he called on all parties to practice self restraint, stop the protests and resort to legal channels to review the results of the elections. Khamenei seized the opportunity to attack the historical enemy of Iran, Britain, as the "greatest evil" among all nations. He warned that agents of the empire were out to do the same thing as the British and George Soros, although not naming him by name, did in Georgia, Ukraine and other countries were they used frustrated youth through electronic channels to rise against the governments of their nations.

The days, after Khamenei's speech, witnessed the emergence of exactly this force. As the peaceful massive demonstrations disappeared, a new force of violent rioters appeared in the streets of Tehran. Small groups of up to 100 persons started burning cars, buses and attacked pro-government Baseej militia posts.

On Sunday, June 21, the Iranian government showed clearly how the British were running an operation to throw the country into chaos and disintegration. In the most direct and detailed attack on the British Empire by an Iranian official, Foreign Minister Manushehr Mottaki blasted the British on several account: 1. Training terrorists to launch attacks inside Iran, 2. Involvement in the current destabilization following the election, 3. Spreading disinformation, and 4. Playing a historical role as the main enemy of the Iranian nation and its neighbors, including the leading of the U.S. to invade Iraq on false pretexts and helping increase the drug production in Afghanistan in the British-controlled areas. Mottaki was speaking in a briefing he gave at the Foreign Ministry to foreign diplomats. '

On Saturday Iranian Intelligence Ministry reported Saturday that it had identified and arrested a large number of Mujahedin Khalq Organization (MKO) members who were involved in recent riots in Iran's capital. The website of the Iranian tv channel Press TV reported that according to the security officials, the arrested members had confessed that they were extensively trained in Iraq's camp Ashraf to create post-election mayhem in the country, and that they have been given directions by the MKO command post in London. Iranian national television wired telephone conversations between a women in London and some of the arrested rioters, where the women was giving commands on where, how, and when to attack and burn targets.

On Sunday, Iranian authorities asked the British Broadcasting Corporation’s (BBC) correspondent John Leyne to leave the country within 24 hours. This came only hours after the Foreign Minister Menushehr Mottaki attacked the British explicitly for destabilizing the country, including through the British media.

Foreign Mininistry spokesman Hassan Qashqavi, strongly condemned the British and their media again today, for running insurgency and psywar operations against the country.

"They [the BBC and the VOA] are the mouthpiece of their government's public diplomacy..They have two guidelines regarding Iran. One is to intensify ethnical and racial rifts within Iran and secondly to disintegrate the Iranian territories."

Qashqavi warned that "any contact with these channels, under any pretext or in any form, means contacting the enemy of the Iranian nation.” And he added: "How can they say they are unbiased when their TV channel is like a war headquarters and in fact they are blatantly commanding riots. Therefore their claims are absolutely wrong. Their governments have ratified decisions so that they can act in this way."

The BBC has arranged its website page regarding Iran as a war room. It urges Iranians to do the following, under each story on the crisis in Iran:

“Are you in Iran? What do you think of the current situation? Are you taking part in the demonstrations? If you have any information you would like to share with the BBC you can do so using the form below: Send your pictures and video to yourpics@bbc.co.uk or text them to +44 7725 100 100. If you have a large file you can upload here..."

The rioters use the BBC site to not only send coordinates of where and when riots are planned, they are also fed with instructions where and when to do things.

This British-directed coup attempt is the clearest case of the British empires attempt to destabilize the whole region and prevent collaboration among nations states, especially the United States, Russia, China and India to work together with nations such as Iran not only to stabilize the whole region's security, but also to reorganize the whole global decaying financial and economic system, taking power away from the British financial empire of the City of London and its allies in Wall Street, and placing it in the hands of a community of perfectly sovereign nation states.

Internally in Iran, there is a dispute on the elections results, but more importantly the form of states. However, this is a rift within the ranks of the "Islamic revolution", not by new-comer revolutionaries educated in Oxford or Harvard against the government. Mousavi, and his allies former President Mohammad Khatami and Ali Hashemi Rafsanjani were all part of Imam Khomeini's revolution and Islamic Republic that followed. There has been a wide spreading discussion in Iran on the powers of the supreme leader over the elected institutions of government, and the parallel government which functions basically under a clergy, and practices power that often clashes with the legitimately elected government. The Baseej militias, the revolutionary guards, and the Bunyad organizations practice enormous power in the social and economic affairs of the country, including coercive practices against the civil rights of the citizens. They also consume huge portions of the nation's oil revenues.

However, to change this reality, the "reformists" intended to use the victory in the elections to put the question of changing the institutions of government through political reform, nor violence or coups. The British intervention, following the declared victory of hardline president Ahmedinejad, is intended to create the circumstances for turn this legitimate, but peaceful aspiration, into one more violent and bloody revolution, as they did against Prime Minister Mossadegh in 1950 and against the Shah in 1979, not for any purpose but to throw the nation and the region into a new round of geopolitical, "controlled-chaos" and wars.
