US`s attachment to the term “Axis of Evil”

TEHRAN, December,26(BASIRAT)- From all these statements we can understand that on one hand, USA justifies the continuation of its boycotting and threatening policy against Iran and on the other hand, prevents other countries from having connections with Iran by introducing it as a dangerous country among terrorist flourishing ones

United States House of Representatives in its most recent act has brought up a plan to tighten restrictions on people who have, in the past five years, travelled to Iraq, Syria, Sudan or Iran. They have claimed that the aforementioned countries are dangerous due to flourishing of terrorism, and that it`s possible for the travelers to such countries to have acquired terroristic opinions.

In another news, sources reported that in a speech concerning Russia, Earnest, the White House Press Secretary, has emphasized that Russia because of its acts in Ukraine and its support for Assad, has become isolated in the global society and only a few rebels are supporting Russia for such acts. Earnest`s claim concerning the few rebel countries` support for Russia has directly targeted Iran. Both these statements from the Congress and the White house has been brought up in circumstances while Obama in a recent speech has claimed that Da`esh and terrorism both consist a very small fraction of a billion Muslims.

Considering together these three statements from US`s dominating system reveals an important point, that the officials of this country consider Iran a rebel nation outcast from the global society, and a terrorist threat for the world. It`s both interesting and significant to know that Iran`s terroristic nature in their opinion is such a threat that travelers to the country must be subjected to restrictions and assessments. It should also be mentioned that Iranians were banned from entering the United States in excuse for war on terrorism; while USA although refused to accept Abu Dhabi as Iran`s UN representative in an undiplomatic act against world`s conventions. Consideration of these acts together forms a principle in the mind, suggesting that by these acts the US has officially declared Iran as the axis of evil and an international threat. After the incidents of 11 September 2011, US president George Bush and US Congress called Iran along with Syria, Libya, Sudan, Somali, North Korea and Iraq the "Axis of Evil”, an act which must be confronted. Similarly today, Obama`s speech along with the US Press Secretary statements and the Congress act mean the official description of Iran as an Axis of Evil.

It`s both surprising and important that before nuclear agreements between the Islamic republic of Iran and the 5+1 group, Americans claimed that after a nuclear deal Iran would get out of isolation and be back to the global society.

From all these statements we can understand that on one hand, USA justifies the continuation of its boycotting and threatening policy against Iran and on the other hand, prevents other countries from having connections with Iran by introducing it as a dangerous country among terrorist flourishing ones. By spreading fear of Iran among the world and by emphasizing that those with Iran entry stamp on their passports will face restrictions for entering the US, they practically ban other countries, corporations and business men from having any connections with Iran. In other words, while Americans disregard Iran`s role and position in war on terrorism by calling introducing it as an axis of world crises`, at the same time they justify new sanctions and pressures against Iran while banning others from having connections with Iran. Americans` behavior shows that their claims regarding Iran-5+1 negotiations and west positive effects on Iran`s international position and on increasing Iran`s passport credit are all empty, and that such claims are made in order to deceive the public opinion and to conceal the real face of USA.
