Countering Iran A Cover-Up for ‘Western-Zionist Death Grip’ on Region

Kevin Barrett

Tasnim News Agency interview with Kevin Barrett  1. Following the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran has been the only country in the Middle East standing against the US and pursuing independence. What’s your view on such Iranian paradigm of countering the US hegemony? Has the Islamic Republic of Iran succeeded in promoting that model and enlightening the international community about Washington’s policy of interference?  The 1979 Islamic Revolution succeeded in freeing Iran from the US empire. Its success has been largely due to the genius of Imam Khomeini, who found a way to bring Islam back into the center of public life,…

Kevin Barrett

Persian speakers can find the published version of V.Alvandiour’s interview with me at http://www.siasatrooz.ir/vdcfjjdc.w6d0cagiiw.html Below is the English version. 1. First of all, would you please tell me what your overall view about Iran is? I want to know how Iran is pictured in your mind. What is its role in current international politics? Iran is not just a remarkable modern nation-state. It is also one of the world’s oldest and most impressive civilizations. I think Iran’s greatest contribution to world history is the way it accepted, democratized and enriched Islamic civilization. By “democratized” I mean that Iran was in…

Live from Egypt! Special “Egyptian fireworks” show with Abdullah Champeon

Kevin Barrett

Thursday, July 4th, 11 to noon Central, NoLiesRadio.org (archived here). The fireworks are exploding in Egypt, and it’s not for the Fourth of July. President Morsi has been overthrown in a coup d’état, and while some are celebrating, others are going back to the drawing boards to figure out how to free Egypt from its Rothschild overlords. See my article published today at Press TV: Egypt needs real Islamic revolution Guest Abdullah Champeon would be widely known as Wisconsin’s funniest white-boy Muslim, if I hadn’t beaten him to the punch with articles like yesterday’s Muslims defend pig farmer’s freedom.  He…

Iran: Threat or Menace? Part 1: Background briefing

Kevin Barrett

The first of a three-part series of brief articles considering the run-up to the June 14th Iranian presidential elections Compared to citizens of other developed countries, Americans are not especially well-informed about the world. Like other peoples only more so, Americans view the world through a glass darkly – a glass darkened by ignorance and prejudice. Much of the fault lies not with the people, but with their corporate-monopoly media. Consider the case of Iran, a geo-strategical lynchpin nation more than three times the size of Iraq. Since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iran has gotten uniformly bad press in…

Eric Walberg on power struggle in Egypt; Joel Kovel on Zionists in general and Kenneth Katzman in particular ; – )

Kevin Barrett

Mon.  12/3/12, 3-5 pm Central,  American Freedom Radio  (archived here.)   First hour: What’s really going on in Egypt? Author-journalist and geopolitics expert Eric Walberg, who has lived mostly in Egypt during recent years, says Egypt’s 9/11 truther president Mohammed Morsi is “biting the bullet” and completing what I have called Egypt’s Islamic revolution – which is what the vast majority of Egyptians want. Takbir! I can just hear Henry Kissinger muttering under his breath:  “I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go Islamic because of the irresponsibility of its own people! The issues are…

Is the alternative media getting Libya wrong?

Kevin Barrett

Jim W. Dean, Associate Editor of Veterans Today, will join me on Truth Jihad Radio this Monday, August 29th, 1-2 pm The topic: Is the alternative media getting Libya wrong? Every day, the monopoly corporate media and the foundation-funded pseudo-alternative media are losing market share to internet- and satellite-based genuinely alternative media. (The litmus test for whether an outlet is genuinely alternative or not is 9/11 truth: If it’s pro-9/11-truth, it’s genuinely alternative; if it isn’t, it isn’t.) Just about all of the genuinely alternative media, with the lone exception of the editorial team at Veteran’s Today, favors Qaddafi’s regime…

The Islamic Revolution Continues in Egypt

Kevin Barrett

I get bombarded with Islamophobic emails on a regular basis. Most of the culprits, believe it or not, are sympathetic to the cause of truth – yet at an unconscious level they have been programmed by the 9/11 public relations stunt and other Zionist media propaganda to fear and loathe Islam.  So let me briefly explain to these folks, and other non-Islam-friendly readers and listeners, why I think Egypt, Tunisia, and many other Muslim-majority countries desperately need Islamic revolutions. These nations’ societies have been based on Islam – which is a 24/7/365 way of life, not a one-day-a-week gig –…

The Second Islamic Revolution begins in Tunisia

Kevin Barrett

The Zionist-dominated Western media is doing everything it can to downplay this week’s Tunisian Revolution and ignore its historic implications. Mainstream Middle East expert Juan Cole calls the Tunisian revolution “potentially more consequential for the Middle East” than the Iranian Revolution of 1979″ and adds: “As usual, the important news from the region is being ignored by US television news.” In fact, the US mainstream media doesn’t report Middle East news. It just vomits up Zionist propaganda. Whatever you see (or don’t see) on US-dominated news channels is there (or not there) to serve the interests of apartheid Greater Israel…
