A Reflection on Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff’s Recalibration

As the Islamic Republic Fails, Renewed Interest in Zoroastrianism, Iran’s Ancient Faith

Iran’s modern Islamic Republic has continued the historic antagonism of Iran’s various Islamic rulers towards <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/world/iraqi-kurds-turn-to-zoroastrianism-as-faith-identity-entwine/ar-AAJdVtC">Zoroastrianism</a>, whose often illustrious past began some 3,500 years ago in ancient Iran.</p>

America After Trump

<img class=" size-full wp-image-419" src="/media/2020/02/7a6fe08027b80ee08bda1ed60d73e334.jpg" alt="" width="209" height="241" /><div class="article_body"> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: times new roman,times,serif;">Is it too early to contemplate a search for a clone of Donald Trump for the 2024 election? Maybe not! But is Trump replaceable? The man who restored America’s pride, dignity, optimism and hope after a devastating eight dismal years of Barack Hussein Obama! Trump officially entered the Republican Presidential race on <u><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx6V-e2DQW0">June 16, 2015</a></u> with a simple yet powerful message: ‘Make America Great Again.’</span></span></p>

The stunning sham impeachment of Donald Trump

ZERO.</span></span></p>

The Rage of the Democrats

The Iranian Islam Dilemma

<img class=" size-full wp-image-313" src="/media/2019/02/c3997142576e6f4d163ead570965368d.jpg" alt="" width="961" height="641" /><div class="article_body"> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: times new roman,times,serif;">Since the invasion of the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran, many Iranians found themselves in a state of bewilderment as to what real Islam is.  The suffocating rule of Islam casts its death-bearing pall over Iranians.  A proud people with an enviable heritage has been systematically purged of its sense of identity.  The so-called Islam they knew and cherished vanished overnight, and confusion and uncertainty prevailed.</span></span></p>

What Happens When the Lights Go Out — Permanently?

<img class=" size-full wp-image-311" src="/media/2018/12/83c2446a0896df0a1f4af01c940ae1d9.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="267" /><p style="text-align: justify;">You just woke up on a weekday and notice it’s much lighter outside than usual. You’re used to getting up early. You look at your alarm clock and see nothing but a black display acting like a dark mirror. You lift your watch from your bedside table. The second hand has stopped and the electronic display is gone.</p>

Summary of Jihad in Iran

<img class=" size-full wp-image-308" src="/media/2018/09/0548677e6432786dd8df61eb3aaec139.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="267" /><p style="text-align: justify;">Islamic jihadists have advanced by invading country after country with the sword of Islam. The invasion of Iran was only the start of the tenacious scourge of Islam. Slaughtering people by the hundreds of thousands at the time left the remainder of the Iranians little choice but to convert to the creed of this cult of violence. Left with no choice, millions converted to Islam at the point of the sword, and a few hundred thousand brave souls circled the wagons, so to speak, and held firm to their creed of light — the Zoroastrian faith.</p>

If I let Islam be, Islam doesn’t let me be

<img class=" size-full wp-image-307" src="/media/2018/09/d3b3799d6611d677944f5f86a500beb3.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="174" /><p style="text-align: justify;">Once I left Iran, my battle with this dogma of hate and violence began. I decided to raise the clarion call about the imminent and present danger of expansionist, theocratic Islam throughout the civilized world. Having witnessed firsthand the horrors and indignity that <em>Islamic </em>doctrine visits on people it subjugates, I was determined to take it upon myself to do my part in defeating this ideology of oppression, hate and violence.</p>

The Mullahs and the Nukes

And for years, the U.S. administration has been unable to outdo the Islamic Republic’s propaganda machine and clearly has been unable or perhaps unwilling to help the Iranian people to end the Islamic nightmares in Iran.</p>
