We begin tonight’s edition of A Window to the Fatherland with Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh reading one of his poems from the book of his collected works.
Dr. Alireza Nourizadeh:
We continue the program with looking at the comments of Javad Zarif about the rampant money laundering among the regime’s top officials and interest groupings.
However, Mr Zarif deliberately forgets to mention that these officials, the likes of Vahid Haghanian’s brother, Benjamin, Haj Ali Moghadam, Dr. Taheri and Shirani and Nafiseh Khanom, to name only a few, have direct links with Khamenei’s office and work for his financial empire!
Later we will look at the behind the scene meetings of Qassem Soleimani with the Americans and the various scenarios about who would take over after Khamenei’s death as the fast moving developments in our country are very significant.
Today I can reveal that about two years ago Qassem Soleimani had a top secret meeting with the Americans during one of his trips to Iraq and Syria and even his close associates did not know about it.
All in all he has met in secret with Americans 14 times. The Americans have been following two parallel options with regard to the Iranian regime.
In the first option the US intelligence agencies were establishing contact with a US educated individual who works for Ebrahim Raeesi’s office, with the view that Khamenei’s demise will soon become a reality and Qassem Soleimani will take over and appoint Raeesi, as the supreme leader and Javad Larijani will be put in the office of the president.
In the second scenario Soleimani will become the military leader of the country and the head of a ruling council until a newconstitution will be drafted and the title of Islamic will be removed from the name of the country.
I have never believed in a military government and Iranians will never accept another dictatorship, however the regime’s elements try to prettify is image.
