In this episode, we take a deep dive into the current state of affairs between the Islamic Republic of Iran and Pakistan regarding terrorism and funding terrorism. Is this a good or bad deal for the world? Is this really as bad as it sounds?
00:03:14.600And if you listen, like, this is the funny thing about Islamophobia, right?
00:03:17.500Like, every Islamic radical is more Islamophobic than, you know, the biggest Islamophobe you'll find, you know, that you can name in the West.
00:03:25.700Because if they're Shiite radicals, they want to kill all the Sunnis.
00:03:29.220They're like, we'll kill the Jews and the Christians first, then we'll kill each other.
00:03:32.460And if it's a Sunni radical, well, they're going to kill all these Shiites because they're not real Muslims and they're blasphemers and kafirs, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:03:37.780So you have, that's the general potential for chaos and friction between the two, right?
00:03:45.600You could say, okay, is there some proto-ISIS Sunni militants in Pakistan?
00:04:12.460Now, the fighting, though, is in, you know, the Baloch province of both countries.
00:04:19.940And if you know anything about Pakistan, like, they're not friends of the Baloch people.
00:04:26.820Pakistan has been committing ethnic cleansing and general crimes against humanity in the Baloch region since its inception.
00:04:33.080You know, this is where China's building is about road initiative and, you know,
00:04:36.080people being dragged off into, you know, sometimes they disappear, sometimes they're tortured for a couple years and, like, dumped on the streets, mutilated, sometimes dead, sometimes not.
00:04:44.340You know, we've had both countries have assassinated dissidents in Canada, here in Toronto.
00:04:48.740Karima Baloch was drowned by the ISI in a river.
00:04:52.500The Toronto police, these geniuses, said, you know, that's a suicide.
00:04:55.960She strangled herself and then took her own dead body and threw it in a river.
00:05:27.240A lot of countries have reason to bomb Pakistan for terrorism.
00:05:30.200Now, can you say, wait, doesn't Pakistan have legitimate reasons to bomb Iran because of, you know, fomenting terrorism and attacks on their territory?
00:06:36.420We kill and terrorize our people, not you.
00:06:39.220So it's not like Pakistan has any great love for the Baloch people.
00:06:42.980They've been horribly oppressing them for decades, forever, since the dawn of Pakistan.
00:06:48.200And Iran, as you see, they like to foment this internal separatism narrative.
00:06:58.060And by Pakistan, you know, bombing Baloch people, I already see the narrative being laid here where the Islamic Republic is already coming out and saying that the civilians, the Iranian civilians killed aren't really Iranians.
00:07:10.180And this is them, you know, being classically racist in a Western way.
00:07:15.620But it's not exactly what the real makeup of Iranian politics is.
00:07:19.740They're being Western-style racist likely to internally foment a separatist movement and push up some Baloch separatism because, one, they're letting the Baloch people get bombed by a foreign power.
00:07:33.280And then they're taunting their dead children, saying they're not real Iranians.
00:07:38.180They want the Baloch to feel more separate because if they can push an internal separatist fear in Iran, they can then gain more domestic power.
00:07:48.580Now, I can't see the separatist thing backfiring on the Islamic Republic because the separatist thing is often glommed on to Western leftism.
00:07:59.840It's the Western leftists who often will, you know, support these separatist movements.
00:08:04.180And the Islamists think they can manipulate the socialists, which they can.
00:08:15.900So, they're not that perfectly contained.
00:08:19.660You could see dire consequences or unintended consequences of their actions.
00:08:26.240I mean, both Pakistan and Iran here blowing up in their face.
00:08:29.340But the reason why I am not celebrating this as you, touchdown, get him.
00:08:34.560I see a way for the regime to benefit off of this.
00:08:43.200And for all their failings, and sometimes they're crazy, they are very good at manipulating their population to stay in power.
00:08:50.800The way I would describe this is, like, I always say, like, Iran's an actual nation and country with history and culture in the Middle East.
00:08:57.820You know, so it's not like the other regions where it's just different tribes.
00:09:00.540Like, there is a cohesive national Iranian identity.
00:09:03.820And all these different peoples, you know, ethnic minorities, Turks, Baloch, Azeri, Kurds, all of them have ruled Iran at some point over its thousands of years of history.
00:09:13.200So, this history is seen by Iranian pro-democracy, you know, either constitutional monarchists or republicans, as very important to the rebirth of the Iranian nation without the Islamic Republic.
00:09:25.760And to start to separate it and pull it into balkanization is really going to undermine any legitimate free Iran movement.
00:09:32.340The best example I can give for sort of, you know, why don't we just, like, break Iran into all these different places and cut off the Azerbaijan and cut off a Kurdish region and cut off a Baloch region and cut off a this region.
00:09:41.980It might sound like a way to, you know, throw Iran into chaos and overthrow the regime, but it's not going to work.
00:09:49.060It's kind of like when Jews hear the, why don't you just move Israel to Europe?
00:09:52.860Or why don't you just have all the Jews move to Antarctica?
00:09:55.640Or why don't you make Israel in America?
00:09:57.280It's like, no, because Israel is there.
00:09:58.720Like, it's an ignorant thing to say, like, no Jew is going to be like, oh, the Bible says Jerusalem.
00:10:04.240Like, it's not going to happen, right?
00:10:06.360It's the same way you're not going to win hearts and minds and heads or anything in the Iranian community if you're just, like, backing a Balochie separatist movement.
00:10:15.280So I see this sort of potentially a trap the regime could use to bait a lot of, you know, new Iranian ally.
00:10:22.940There's a lot of people who've come to the side of the Iranian people over the last few years but don't really understand the intricacies of Iranian politics.
00:10:29.680I see this as a giant landmine potentially to step on.
00:10:32.520And, again, you already see the regime.
00:10:34.260They're like, these aren't really people.
00:10:49.040So is there a chance that, you know, hey, listen, if Pakistan starts hitting IRGC targets inside Iran and Iran starts hitting terrorist training camps inside Pakistan, you know what?
00:11:03.780And for the love of God, please, Joe Biden, Americans, the West, do not, do not, do not throw hundreds of millions or billions of dollars at Pakistan to kill random Iranian civilians.
00:11:23.540One, the money won't even go to, most of it won't even go to killing the Iranian civilians.
00:11:28.380It will go to more terrorist training camps, which will probably be used to kill Indians and some Westerners and foment general discord on our streets.
00:11:35.780That's what Pakistan uses their money for.
00:11:37.540So it won't even go to your desired intended purpose of doing that, but it will be played as if it is doing that.
00:11:42.900And it will further isolate the pro-democracy, anti-regime movement inside Iran from the rest of the world.
00:11:48.500So if you want both these countries to stop the terrorist shenanigans like I do, I suggest sit back and watch this one.
00:11:58.660Just watch and don't start cheering, you know, dead civilians because that seems to be their plan, right?
00:12:06.480All these people, and Palestinians, listen, these are your two great allies, Pakistan and Iran.
00:12:51.680Other than that, you know, Pakistan, if you want to do me a favor and, you know, shoot Raisi or Khomeini in the face, that would be appreciated by everyone.
00:13:01.900If you want to just, like, take out all these Pakistani terrorist training camps and generals funding terrorism that are going to eventually kill you, he's right.
00:13:07.900Remember, when you kill all the Jews and then kill everyone in the West, you're going to start killing each other after that, right?
00:13:16.140So, hey, you know, maybe, you know, do something about that because, you know, the West isn't going to save you because we're up our own at NASA's and we can't figure out what's going on.
00:13:25.960So maybe you guys can, you know, fight some radical Islam for once.
