As I was following the statements made by Iran’s leaders and officials about the attitudes of US president Donald Trump’s administration, what attracted me the most is what was stated by the Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, who considers Trump as being ‘new to the political field’ and that ‘the political atmosphere is strange to him’? Thus, according to Mullahs, Trump and his staff need some time to realize what to do, and this will take a long time according to Rouhani!!
As a writer, what interests me is not whether the Mullahs insult Trump or not, rather I am interested by the perceptions both parties have about each other, in order to understand the situation. Here, we must notice what was pointed out, according to their statements, that Trump is a businessman. In fact this is true, and I mentioned in my previous articles that the man speaks the language of business. However, it is a kind of stupidity that the Mullahs believe that Trump is politically ignorant, and that he needs time to realize the process of international relations. The aim of this claim is to lure the new US administration for a military clash with Iran. I, personally, announce that the Mullahs are not ready for such a clash, and that they are not capable of it; however, they do not care about its costs on the Iranian people. They do not realize that they may be a direct target to any military movement of the US; rather they think it will be like any other military interventions of the US in the region.
The Mullahs bet on a tendency to make deals with Trump, which is possible to happen. On the contrary, the idea that the new president in the White House is politically ignorant is totally stupid. In fact, the head of the United States, who is supposed to run a fierce electoral battle against the politically experienced democratic candidate backed by media and American elites, must be a professional political player, rather than a skillful one!.
In politics, as in football, there are schools and various trends. It is not something new to have an American President with no political background in American history. In fact, there are representatives and businessmen who got into the White House through polls. What makes of the Mullahs’ vision about the US administration trivial is that they perceive it as novice in the political field as Trump is more concerned with business. This is an intriguing fact. On the first hand, because the political world is no longer separated from business and the political economy is the basis of global relationships. In fact, the ‘BrettonWoods’ convention, after the World War II, gave birth to a global monetary system based on trade interchange.
On the second hand, Mullahs criticize the American president for holding business background, while ignoring the fact of various religious “turbans” that provide them with titles such as “argument of God”, “the Ayatollah”, “The Great Ayatollah» and so on. This fact is supported by doctrinal and sectarian backgrounds, and is applicable not only to political institutions, but also to scientific universities!
These misconceptions control Sunni groups and terrorist organizations. We find an eccentric youth, who has read only some old books, dominated by tendencies of leadership and the illusion of being a comparable commander to the great leaders of Islam. Hence, he organized a system to destroy the interests of the Islamic people.
What is ironic about Rouhani’s comments is that he considers himself as a teacher who can remind the US President that today’s world is a world of communication and exchange of ideas. This is good standing, but the problem lies in what he says!! The same position applies to the Mullahs, and it must be forwarded to Iran in the first place. Since Iran has no positive relations with the countries of the neighborhood, we cannot assume that the Mullahs believe in dialogue and international cooperation!! They only export Shiite sectarian militias to their neighbors, and threats to seize the capitals and invade Arab cities!! Their business is only related to weapons and exporting terrorists to a wide area, including Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and other areas !!
Does not Mullah Hassan Rohani seem like those people about whom the Almighty Lord said “they order people to righteousness and forget themselves’? Is it logical that a state, that claims to defend Islam, performs an ethnic cleansing on a religious basis, for instance in Syria and Iraq cities? I think, in my point of view, that the problem of the Mullahs with civilization and human values is more critical than the populist tendencies of Trump. After all, the latter preserves the borders of his country and seeks to prevent invasion. This is a philosophical and intellectual conflict with his people, and it exports the most valuable morals to the world and humanity. Therefore, Trump’s conflict with his people is of clear results. On the other hand, the Mullahs are working to interfere in the demography and national identities of other countries!!
The Mullahs want to control the people of Iraq, Syria, and Yemen. It would be better if they were confined to the Iranian people’s affairs and their country’s borders and prevented it from being invaded. This would safeguard the world from their evils!
