An Iranian general says the ideological-behavioral features of Trump bear a striking resemblance to those of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
IRGC General Rasoul Sanaei Raad has, in an article published on Basirat website, weighed in on the similarities between US President Donald Trump and ringleader of the ISIS terrorist group Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. The full text of the opinion piece follows:
Although US President Donald Trump and ringleader of the ISIS terrorist group Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi are seemingly of two different races as one was born to an Arab mother in Iraq and the other to a Western mother, their ideological-behavioral features are so similar that Trump can be named al-Baghdadi’s American twin. These features are as follows:
What is interesting is that Trump, who, during his election campaign days, accused his rival of having established ISIS and colluding with it, is today, when the terrorist group’s days are numbered in Iraq and Syria, helping ISIS by threatening Iran on the one hand, and disrupting anti-ISIS military operations by Iraqi and Syrian armies on the other. This plays into the hands of al-Baghdadi.
Trump, who seeks to put the IRGC on the list of terrorists, has proven that he, like his Asian twin, has no respect for the rules and regulations of the modern world. He also ignores the fact that the IRGC is constitutionally part of the Iranian Armed Forces. By the same token, Baghdadi issued a decree terming “others” infidels and disbelievers, serving as a mandate for terrorists to attack Iraqi and Syrian armies. However, he ignored its formidable consequences, including hatred of ISIS, the formation of resistance fronts against ISIS, the establishment of a massive popular force to tackle ISIS, and the defeat of Takfiri terrorists. His actions discredited his fellow terrorists.
Trump’s historic mistake, too, has prompted the IRGC commander to say that he will regard the US as a follower of ISIS in the region if Washington puts the IRGC on its terror list. Of course, Trump will be the one who would start the game. From now, we can predict that the consequences of this mistake would be similar to the mistake made by Baghdadi, which led to back-to-back defeats by Takfiri terrorists against resistance fronts. These defeats were the result of his mistake and Baghdadi cannot blame anybody else but himself for that. The ones who supported and provoked Baghdadi have left him alone now and they are distancing themselves from the losing horse. Trump should not bank, either, on today’s encouragement by Britain, the Al Saud dynasty and the Israeli regime.
