The Lebanese magazine Ash-Shiraa exposed the Iran Contra Affair on 3 November 1986. A senior official in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps named Mehdi Hashemi made statements about CIA shipments of weapons including Hawk missiles to the Iranian Theocracy. Initially then President Reagan made it seem the deal was part of an agreement reached to return 7 US hostages that had been held by Hezbollah.
Soon the scope of the project came to light. Arms were being shipped to Iran illegally by the Reagan administration and money gained was being used to finance the Nicaraguan Contra militias in their fight against the Sandinistas. The US Congress had made weapons exports to Iran and the Contras illegal. Dozens of members of the administration were investigated and charged. Convictions were pardoned or overturned by George Bush Sr during his term as president.
Mehdi Hashemi was a Shia cleric. He had been jailed by the Pahlavi regime for “vigilante murders of prostitutes, homosexuals and drug dealers” and the murder of a cleric who was critical of the Ayatollah Khomeini. He was released after the Iranian Revolution and became an important member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and a liaison to Hezbollah.
After leaking the Iran Contra Scandal to the Lebanese press he was arrested, defrocked and executed by the Ayatollah Khomeini. All this happened while the giant Phil was working for Aramco in Saudi Arabia (1978 to 1990).
The Ayatollah Khomeini refused to release the 52 American hostages taken during the Iranian Revolution to President Jimmy Carter. Khomeini released the hostages the day of Ronald Reagan’s inauguration. Carter had unfrozen Iranian assets to the tune of $8 billion. The Iran Contra affair had nothing to do with their release. Although the assets had been unfrozen in October Khomeini refused to release the hostages to Carter. Reagan won the election in November 1980, largely due to the inability of Carter to secure the hostages release.
The Iran Iraq War was fought from Sep 22, 1980 – Aug 20, 1988. The Reagan administration was officially supporting Iraq. The Iran Contra Affair did not stop US financing for Iraq as the man gods had hoped. Neither did the attack on the USS Stark in 1987, when a lone Iraqi pilot rocketed a US naval vessel. When Saddam Hussein (Case Study 30) invaded Kuwait in 1990 with the man god Phil’s encouragement, George Bush Sr was smart enough not to oust the Iraqi leader. George Jr in 2003 wasn’t so smart.
Power vacuum is the term used to represent a state with no effective leadership. The collapse of Saddam Hussein’s government would lead to increasing Iranian influence or an outright takeover. This was as planned.

It’s handy to own two leaders of opposed nations.
This is the death chart of Georges Ernest Boulanger (29 April 1837 – 30 September 1891), nicknamed Général Revanche (“General Revenge”). He was a French General and politician of the 19th century. He used inflammatory rhetoric and nationalism to vault to popularity during the Third Republic. He called for revenge against Germany for the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. In January of 1889 it was feared he had enough popularity to become a dictator and is considered by some historians to be the first fascist or “proto-fascist.”
He was considered a Republican because he did not go to church. Turned out he had been a conservative Monarchist the whole time.
His downfall from politics occurred in January of 1889 when he won a race for a seat as a deputy for Paris. His supporters were elated and wanted to conduct a coup d’etat; immediately take over the national government. He was a threat to the Republic and was accused by his detractors of treason (later convicted in absentia). He fled to Brussels and then to London.
He committed suicide in 1891 with a pistol over the grave of his mistress Marguerite de Bonnemains who had died two months earlier.
This is the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini (24 September 1902 – 3 June 1989). He was a religious leader of Twelver Shi’a Islam. He became the Ayatollah (religious title) around 1962. He went into exile in 1963, living in Iraq, Turkey and France. In Turkey he stayed in Bursa in the home of Colonel Ali Cetiner, head of Turkish Military Intelligence.
According to the BBC, recently released documents show the Ayatollah had contact with the CIA on different occasions. He returned to Iran during the Iranian Revolution with the help of the US and France. The leaders of these countries believed he would help calm the situation, being a religious man. He promptly took over the revolutionary government and formed a Theocracy. He eliminated all competition, including the original groups behind the revolution against Shah Pahlavi. Iran was then involved in a 10 year war with Iraq (Iran-Iraq War); more souls.
Currently Iran is run by the Ayatollah Khamenei. It is said Khomeini selected Khamenei as a replacement on his deathbed, after receiving a revelation from whichever giant was handling him.
