Obama Systematically Disassembled America's Intelligence Capability Against Iran's Terror-Funding Networks

So that no one could undo his crazed drive to give Iran a bomb.

The Obama administration "systematically disbanded" law enforcement investigative units across the federal government focused on disrupting Iranian, Syrian, and Venezuelan terrorism financing networks out of concern the work could cause friction with Iranian officials and scuttle the nuclear deal with Iran, according to a former U.S. official who spent decades dismantling terrorist financial networks.
David Asher, who previously served as an adviser to Gen. John Allen at the Defense and State Departments, told the House Foreign Affairs Committee Thursday that top officials across several key law enforcement and intelligence agencies in the Obama administration "systematically disbanded" law enforcement activities targeting the terrorism financing operations of Iran, Hezbollah, and Venezuela in the lead-up to and during the nuclear negotiations with Tehran.
"Senior leadership, presiding, directing, and overseeing various sections [of these agencies] and portions of the U.S. intelligence community systematically disbanded any internal or external stakeholder action that threatened to derail the administration's policy agenda focused on Iran," he testified.
...
He attributed the motivation for decisions to dismantle the investigative units to "concerns about interfering with the Iran deal," a reference to the nuclear deal forged between the U.S., five other world powers, and Iran during the final years of the Obama administration.
As a result, "several top cops" retired and the U.S. government lost their years of expertise.
The United States squandered the chance "at a very low financial cost" to take apart Hezbollah's finances, its global organization, and the Iran proxy's ability to "readily terrorize us, victimize us, and run a criminal network through our shores, inside our banking systems�and in partnership with the world's foremost drug cartels�target our state and society," he said.
"We lost much of the altitude we had gained in our global effort, and many aspects including key personnel, who were reassigned, budgets that were slashed--many key elements of the investigations that were underway were undermined," he said.
"Today we have to deal with the legacy of that and how we rebuild this capability--knowing that you can have a nuclear deal with Iran and you can contain and disrupt their illicit activities," he continued.

The media is very interested in presidents corruptly conspiring to sell the American interest to hostile foreign nations -- except if it involves The Precious.

33 But of course he did.

I believe the Obama doctrine was that Muslims are so angry because they are humiliated and powerless, and that if we let/helped them gain power and become a world superpower, then they would calm down and become civilized.

So his efforts were all pointed toward turning the middle east into a Muslim superpower, with Iran as its center.

That's the only thing that makes sense of the speeches and foreign policy that they tried to implement.

57 Obama systematically dismantled intelligence apparatus that could have compromised his Iran Treaty, which is a treaty never ratified by the Senate.

Obama allowed lower operatives in his regime to instruct the intelligence apparatus to spy on Americans that might have had dealings with foreign countries, and allow their "unmasking" to compromise them politically.

And people thought he was lazy.

And yet, in the years yet to come, even worse things will come to light.

Definitely possible. And I'll add that Iran having a bomb probably was meant to create a Middle East Cold War: all have bombs, so no one uses bombs.

Posted by: Brother Cavil

2040 is 23 years from now.

Think back 23 years ago. It was 1994, and even though no one realized it at the time, we were on the eve of the 1994 election, the Republican Revolution (which, after all, was still born). But then we had great prosperity for 5 years, largely because the government was gridlocked. (yay?)

At that moment in time, no one could have foreseen someone like Barack Obama being elected in 2008, or Donald Trump, for that matter. Donald Trump was a quite well know public figure, and if you would have given people odds on him being President in 2017, you would have been laughed out of Las Vegas, or wherever gambling takes place.
But there actually were a handful of people that did foresee what happened on 9/11, just did not have a date to pin it on.

The future is out there, somewhere. But it is truly a dark road.

As noted previously, this is nothing more than an unratified treaty which has absolutely no force of law. It should be torn up at once.

Honestly, I think Iran doesn't have the balls to try to hit Israel at this point. Iran knows Barack FuckStick Obama isn't around to contain the response from Israel, not to mention the Sunni countries of the Middle East - Saudi Arabia in particular - that hates Iran more than Israel.

Iran has a real problem right now - Syria is turning into their Vietnam. Too many IRGC troops are getting killed over there and the IRGC is the main force that props up the regime.

Iran is making a risky bet that they can win in Syria and extend their influence from Tehran to Beirut. Really risky. IRGC keeps losing its top soldiers and the regime might get a little squeamish.

Iran doesn't have the wherewithal to do something to Israel with its dicey position in Syria.

Posted by: MacGruber at June 09, 2017 02:22 PM (sgrzZ)

152 So not only did Obama give the Iranians a clear, largely unhindered pathway to nuclear weaponry, he also crippled the apparatus necessary to detect and prevent its covert deployment once nuclear capability was achieved.

A few years ago, a team of journalists from Der Spiegel attempted to publicize their findings regarding medium-range Shahab-3 missile launch sites in Venezuela. Insofar as I know, no major American news organization picked it up.

Based in Venezuela, a Shahab-3 could conceivably reach Houston, for example. Or Miami. Even only with dirty bomb capability, the Iranians could kill thousands, possibly millions of Americans.

170 Valerie Jarrett was his handler. She Likely ran the deal with Iran through email accounts by using the "Dead drop" method. Both parties, Eg; Jarrett & Irani general Soliemani . The way this works is at first, both parties have the password for an E-mail account. The messages are sent and received through the Drafts folder. Party A writes the message and saves it in the drafts, party B reads it deletes it, and then writes another draft. and they can change email addresses through the draft message system passing along passwords to the updated e-mail accounts. the whole Iran deal was done with out "Lurch" J. Kerry in on any of this. No emails even get sent in this method. just read in the drafts folder. Scoamf was just told by Jarrett what to say and do in this matter if this indeed happened.

The problem is all those "conventional" missiles.
I have to believe that the Iranians would launch hundreds of other missiles at the same time as any nuke. I don't know if there's any realistic defense against that.
Ergo: Iran should never be allowed to get within spitting distance of a nuke.
Ergo: If we don't act, at some point the Israelis have to try to preempt.

-------------------------------------

Charles Lister's twitter feed is a great source of info on the Syrian civil war. Lister has a couple of recent tweets about US forces hitting Iranian-backed militia positions in SE Syria. This is - to quote Biden - a big effin' deal.

Iran usually has IRGC components within these militias. Iran is trying to capture a wide swath of SE Syria to ensure they have their land bridge between Tehran and Beirut.

US forces hitting those militias are actively trying to deny Iran this bridge and most likely causing IRGC causalities.

Iran has a real problem right now - Syria is turning into their Vietnam. Too many IRGC troops are getting killed over there and the IRGC is the main force that props up the regime.

Iran is making a risky bet that they can win in Syria and extend their influence from Tehran to Beirut. Really risky. IRGC keeps losing its top soldiers and the regime might get a little squeamish.

Iran doesn't have the wherewithal to do something to Israel with its dicey position in Syria.
