If Trump Is Serious About Peace He Will Demand Iran Lift The Fatwa On Our Diplomats

The announcement that ICE arrested 11 Iranian illegal aliens, including one who served as a sniper in the Iranian Army and two who were illegally in possession of firearms, reminds us that the fatwa or Muslim religious order sentencing three American diplomats to death is very real.

The three former Trump officials who have been targeted for death by Iran’s radical Muslim leaders; former National Security Advisor John Bolton, Secretary of State and CIA Director Mike Pompeo, and Brian Hook.  Hook served as U.S. Special Representative for Iran and Senior Policy Advisor to Secretary of State Pompeo from 2018 to 2020, government-provided security.

Bolton, Pompeo, and Hook were central players in President Trump’s first term “maximum pressure” policy against Iran, and Iran’s Islamic dictatorship targeted them for death after the 2020 American missile strike that killed Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force General Qassem Soleimani, the man responsible for countless American deaths in the Middle East.

Iranians are well-known for issuing fatwas or religious declarations marking their enemies for death, and individuals placed under a fatwa, such as author Salman Rushdie, have been attacked multiple times. In Mr. Rushdie’s case the most recent attack left him blind in one eye after he was stabbed during a speech right here in the United States.

Former President Joe Biden left government-provided security in place for John Bolton, Mike Pompeo, and Brian Hook because the threat assessment demonstrated a high likelihood that the Iranians had the motivation and means to carry out such an attack.

The Biden administration also allegedly informed the Iranians that any attack on our former government officials would be considered an act of war – a position the United States has long maintained no matter who was President, or which Party was in power.

In December, the State Department notified Congress that the threats against Bolton, Pompeo, and Hook were “serious and credible” and warranted continued government-provided security, the New York Post reported.

Despite warnings and verification of a serious threat, President Trump for some unknown reason is keeping in place his decision to deny protection to Bolton, Pompeo, Hook, and their families. 

We hope the news that a former Iranian Army sniper who entered the country illegally has been roaming the United States and other Iranian illegal aliens have managed to illegally acquire firearms will convince President Trump that the Islamic Republic of Iran has the means to carry out the fatwa against Bolton, Pompeo and Hook and he will make lifting the fatwa against these three loyal Americans a part of any future peace deal.

For all who want to see lifting the fatwa against these American diplomats made part of any peace deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran there are two paths forward.

1.       Lobby President Trump to make it a “must have” element of any negation.

2.       Lobby your U.S. Senators and House of Representative members to demand that lifting the fatwa against Bolton, Pompeo and Hook be part of any peace deal with Iran.

Please consider using the web to get this message to all within your circle of influence, including Facebook, X, Truth Social, Gab, Snapchat, etc.

These men followed the instructions of President Trump, and there can be no real peace between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States as long as they and their families are under threat of death from operatives of that regime.
