Tehran rejects ‘baseless’ US accusations of meddling in presidential election
Press TV – October 4, 2024
Iran has rejected “baseless” US accusations that it is attempting to influence the upcoming presidential election, saying Washington, with a record of interference in other countries’ affairs, is “in no position” to make such claims against Tehran.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei made the remarks on Friday, two days after an annual assessment by the Department of Homeland Security alleged that Iran, Russia and China are trying to influence the November vote, including by employing artificial intelligence to disseminate fake or divisive information.
Baghaei said, “These repeated and baseless claims, which have been made by some US officials and institutions for some time, are politically-motivated and serve domestic political purposes.”
“The US government, which has a long history of illegal interference in the internal affairs of other countries, is in no position to level such accusations at other states.”
Back in August, the campaign of US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed that it had been hacked, pinning the blame on Iran without providing evidence.
Meanwhile, the FBI and other US agencies alleged that Iranian hackers had sought to interest President Joe Biden’s campaign in information stolen from Trump’s campaign, sending unsolicited emails to people associated with the then-Democratic candidate.
The Islamic Republic said it does not accord any credence to the accusations, emphasizing that it has no intent or motive to meddle in the American election.

The lies about the 1967 war are still more powerful than the truth
By Alan Hart | June 4, 2012
In retrospect it can be seen that the 1967 war, the Six Days War, was the turning point in the relationship between the Zionist state of Israel and the Jews of the world (the majority of Jews who prefer to live not in Israel but as citizens of many other nations). Until the 1967 war, and with the exception of a minority of who were politically active, most non-Israeli Jews did not have – how can I put it? – a great empathy with Zionism’s child. Israel was there and, in the sub-consciousness, a refuge of last resort; but the Jewish nationalism it represented had not generated the overtly enthusiastic support of the Jews of the world. The Jews of Israel were in their chosen place and the Jews of the world were in their chosen places. There was not, so to speak, a great feeling of togetherness. At a point David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s founding father and first prime minister, was so disillusioned by the indifference of world Jewry that he went public with his criticism – not enough Jews were coming to live in Israel.
So how and why did the 1967 war transform the relationship between the Jews of the world and Israel? … continue

Amen! Viva Iran (and all the Axis of Resistance!)! The goddam USA “empire” has no clothes…(and no emperor; just Zionist operatives and the minions who “speak” for them…like the execrable State Dept. Miller and (ugh) Biden’s/Harris’ hack Kirby, who’d be better off hawking vacuum cleaners.

Why would Iran want to intervene in an election for one or the other of two losers, when they are merely puppets for the real powers behind the throne? America deserves better, but it isn’t going to get it.

You see the problem is that each country (US, UK, EU et al) is so caught up in it’s own propaganda that it sees itself as important, the truth is that of the 8 billion people in the world, 7 billion don’t give a damn who the titular head of those countries are.
Johnson-Sunak-Starmer, Obama-Trump-Biden nothing changed and nothing will. The bankers own both the country and the politicians and although the rest of us may not verbalise it, we all know deep down that it is the reality.
Baron Nathan Mayer de Rothschild (1840-1915) who once said:
“I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the British Empire on which the sun never sets. The man that controls Britain’s money supply controls the British Empire, and I control the British money supply.”

The USA pays $1 trillion per year in interest on a national debt.
To whom?
For what?
‘Serfs in the Middle Ages had to give up 20% of their income yearly and that made them virtual slaves. Today the average American pays 53%. ’
(1995 House of Representatives) [and ‘worked’ on average 150 days per year]
When Harris and Trump are the two best people in America, you guys have real problems.
