The Secret Dealings of Israel and Iran

The $240 Billion Weapons Trade and How Iran Funded Settlements in the West Bank

🧵A Thread

A month before Khomeini returned to Iran, the Israelis communicated with Khomeini

They wanted to know where he stood

He assured them that the Arab States was his priority

December 1978

Only a year after Khomeini came to power, the first weapons deal between Iran and Israel took place.

Israel sold Iran spareparts for F4 Phantom Planes and weapons and In return Khomeini was to allow large numbers of Jews to leave for Israel

April 1980

Khomeini then conspired with Israel in the October Surprise to let Ronald Reagan win the elections

In short, Khomeini would not release the American hostages until after the U.S Election so Jimmy Carter would lose the elections.

October 1980

Shortly before taking the hostages, Khomeini's defence minister paid one of the hostages $5 million for the resumption of weapons deliveries

Israel also continued to provide arms to Iran in this period

Khomeini was promised by the CIA and Israel more arms deliveries, once the hostages were released

Iran in the end recieved $52 Million funnel through Saudi Arabia for 52 hostages by the U.S.

As soon as Reagan became President, the approval for weapons sale to Iran was approved

Israel started fully supporting Iran, to the extent they formed a Joint Committee

Between 1981-1987, Iran purchased weapons for over $240 Billion (adjusted for inflation) from the U.S.-Israeli Joint Committee

Mohsen Kangarlu also reveals that the U.S. said " We will make you win the war" and that they had no issue with Khomeini

He was one of the Iranian officials responsible for contacts with Israel/U.S. He recorded the interview on condition that it be shown after his death

Albert Hakim confirms that they wanted to cooperate with Iran to depose Saddam and gave security guarantees to Iran incase of the Soviet's invaded

Albert Hakim testimony during the Iran-Contra Investigations also corrobates Mohsen Kangarlu's testimony

Israel used the profits from the arms trade with Iran for primarily 3 things:

- Fund the Likud Party

- Fund false flag Israeli controlled "Palestinian Terrorists" to tarnish the Palestinian cause

- Build Settlements in the West Bank & Gaza

Mohsen Kangarlu also admits that the only Major Military Victory, Iran had after 1982 would be impossible without U.S. Support.

Mohsen Kangarlu, former advisor to the Iranian P.M & Presdient.

The U.S. provided Iran with correct intel of Iraqi positions.

In the picture below IRGC Soldiers are spotted with SPOT Satellite pictures in the background.

The U.S. at the same time fed Iraq false intelligence, through 3rd parties on Iranian positions.

Israeli Intelligence Officer Aharon Yariv explains why an Iraqi Victory is not in the favor of Israel and why they should support Iran.

Israel ultimately decides to sell Iran poison and mustard gas factories

Even after the war ended, Iran continued to provide Israel with oil
