While President Barack Obama crisscrossed the US gathering political support to protect his controversial Iranian nuclear deal, he may have known that the Iranian military was launching massive cyberattacks against America.
And even after Obama helped quash Congressional and public opposition to the deal, the attacks have only worsened.
Multiple news sources, including the Wall Street Journal and Fox News, are reporting that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has for years routinely conducted cyberattacks against the United States, including the White House servers. The US intelligence community has had full knowledge of these attacks, but the Obama administration still chose to negotiate with Iran and staunchly defend the controversial nuclear deal.
Perhaps emboldened by the lack of response, there are now reports of a massive uptick in these IRGC cyberattacks in recent weeks, many centered around the arrest of Iranian-American businessman Siamack Namazi last month.
According to intelligence sources, the IRGC has been trained recently by Russian intelligence services to conduct such attacks, which are aimed at getting sensitive personnel data.
There are more signs that the Islamic Republic’s attitude toward the United States is as negative as ever.
On Wednesday, thousands demonstrated in front of the old U.S. Embassy to celebrate the anniversary of students seizing 52 Americans hostage there in 1979.
Meanwhile, four Iranian-Americans are known to be held by Iran: Iranian-American journalist Jason Rezaian of The Washington Post; former U.S. Marine Amir Hekmati of Flint, Michigan; pastor Saeed Abedini of Boise, Idaho; and Siamak Namazi, a businessman and the son of a politician from the shah’s era.
A new billboard in Tehran appropriates the famous Associated Press photo of the World War II flag-raising at Iwo Jima with blood-covered U.S. soldiers standing on a pile of corpses.
Even facsimiles of American culture are targeted, as demonstrators Wednesday carried signs that said no to U.S. fast-food chains like McDonald’s or Starbucks setting up franchises in the country.
During the demonstrations, state prosecutor Ebrahim Raeisi announced that the intelligence department of the Revolutionary Guard had detained a number of writers and spies “hired by Americans.” He did not elaborate. In recent weeks, artists and journalists in Iran have been arrested or given harsh sentences in a series of trials.
“Under no circumstances will we allow penetration of Americans in economic, social and cultural areas,” Raeisi said, repeating a constant warning heard since the nuclear deal was signed.

how long are we gonna look past this crap?
Harold;
Which crap are you referring to ?…… There’s a lot of crap in the District of Corruption and it’s already at least waist deep in PC/DC town.
I think it’s 6 foot 2 in depth…
Amen,….. and Washington D.C. needs to be rid of all of the corrupt self-serving politicians before the United States of America can be saved !! May God Bless & Protect the Legal American Citizens from their own elected representatives !!
I agree we need to get rid of carreer politions in Washington and in our own states a good start is trump 2016
trump 2016 he’s not a polition that’s why he’s got our vote
I agree 100% Donald Trump, 2016, no more corrupt politicians, liars and thieves.
Our Government has ignored this issue for too long. America has been a melting pot for so many foreign people from all over the World. There was never a demand from any other country to demand they were to speak in their native language.They accepted our country and the American language with out any problems. So why is it that the Hispanic’s entering our country demand that we must all be bi-lingual.Is it that they believe that they are better than all other nationalities, I think not. But I do believe that their attitude comes from the fault of our own Government catering to their refusal and demands . Which caused them not to assimilate with the rest of our country and speak ENGLISH as all other ethnics have done.
Time for our government to make the English Language the only Official Language of America. America does not stop anyone from speaking their native language in their home or with their family members, but they must learn to speak English for and in any other position outside of their home. This Government has foolishly spent too much money for printing two languages on so many documents and having schools teach these children in Spanish, which by the way after spending all of that tax money for them in performing these tasks. It was noted and found that it did more harm than good. It was just a waste of tax payer money. We Americans find it very difficult for us to understand just why our Government decided to enter into such a redundant feat. So it is something that the American people are demanding be done now.
GOOD for you, your words and thoughts are right on the line. Being a Veteran I have had it with all of the IMPORTS (people). TakenOur money spent 0n them is way out of bounds. As a Vet we get totally ignored with our disability claims from the war. We fight every day with the VA and all goes unheeded. For me it has been 7 years and I am right where I started. But if I was an import I would be taken care of 7 years ago.
We all must stay together come November 2016 and get them ALL out of office and replace them with some one with no political ties and a conservative thinking person with military experience that will put an end to ISIS and any other country that is friendly with them. Don’t miss understand me I am not for war but we have been taken for the last 7 years and it is time to take control of our freedom and our GREAT country that our founding Fathers have written. GOD Bless America and GOD bless all of you.
Speaking of corruption what about
PP? Why the secrecy for 6 years until last Thursday? While the majority was engrossed with the Confederate flag TPP was passed. So the middle class of this country will be annihilated and the U.S. economy and its laws will be governed by TPP committee nullifying U.S. sovereignty.
Unfortunately, the answer is until they back or commit the next Muslim terrorist attack. When more Americans are killed, and we have a strong president in office. It is then we will treat the Islamic savagery to our strategic arsenal.
For at least as long as the current regime is in place! Longer if Hillary is our next potentate!
Until this ” Communist “, administration , is removed fro the office ‘.

What a ass any thing to help destroy this great Country called America.
What country? Obama has pretty much destroyed the credentials of our great nation.
Obama made the deal with Iran, when people said they they were shouting “Death to America”. The idiots who voted him into office twice should be sent to Iran – along with Obama.
Amen to that
Can’t send Obama to Iran, as he is our first homosexual, married to a drag queen. Yes Michelle is really Michael. If they got a hold of her while in the middle east they would have a field day. He should have been found out and exposed 6 years ago and impeached along with Pelosi and Reed.
Peter, you are absolutely right! Congress hasn’t done the job they were hired to do, Obama would have been out of there in the 1st. 6 months and our country would still be on top! The way they’ve turned their heads and ignored all the destruction this administration has caused us is absolutely despicable and they feel no remorse! Most of both parties should be removed from office and reduced to live below poverty level so they feel what they’ve caused! That would have lowered “Nan” to travel by bike instead of First Class back and forth from Wash. to her home on the American Citizens hard earned money!
Have you ever counted the number of persons in our government jobs that have connections to Obama?
Obama just wants his legacy and does not care how he gets it… He does not give a damn about the United States of America, or the American Citizens. Just look what he has done to dismantle America’s economy & freedoms. I just cannot understand who in their right mind would want a legacy of Nuclear Death, and the thousands of deaths of children, Christians, & Infidels ?? Somebody is in need of some serious counseling. May God guide him away from his worship of false idols…
He was voted in once ‘ ; but in 2012 ‘ , some of us learned that free ‘ , and honest ‘ elections , are a thing of the past , until this ” Communist ” , dictator is removed from the chair ‘.

WING-NUT IS GOING COAST TO COAST LOOKING FOR HELP STASHING HIS ARMY OF 300,000 WILD-EYED CRAZIES HE IS BRINGING IN AS REFUGEES.. NOTICE ALMOST ALL ARE MILITARY-AGE MEN..
Rosa, Though I agree with you, you missed it by a few years. We should have a culture like it was way back in the early 1940’s. Patriotism was in vogue then. People cared about our country and we could manufacture anything we really needed with the exception of rubber. But that didn’t hold the U.S. back We made our own butyl tires, etc. Though I realize times were much different then it was so much better to know we could do these things for ourselves instead of depending on the middle east for oil and China or Japan for just about everything else. Though I never thought I could despise anyone the way I do Obama, what we have now has been going on for some time. He’s only made it worse. Don’t for one second think I don’t want him gone. Or better never to have held ANY office. Not even dog catcher.
Yes. As a very senior citizen I remember so well the patriotism during and after WWII. Those were days when neighbors helped one another. We didn’t know what buying something made outside America was. We had huge gardens and had our own homegrown meat. We shared with people who had less. We were strong ethical people and parents taught children. .
I do very well remember the good old days when we could trust our leaders. We did not have to worry about some dumb as giving Iran trillions of dollars and what for???? So Iran can use our own money to declare war against the United States. This country who was not ashamed to publicly pray to God and give thanks to Him. Our forefathers gave their lives and spent valuable time away from their families to save our country and our freedom. Obama needs to say, “I give up, I am too stupid and greedy to be your President and I am going to step down. No, he will not do that because he is trying to ruin this wonderful country. Where are the politicians with enough balls to stand up against this conspiracy and put his ass out of office??? Our leaders better wake up before it is too late. May God Bless Us ALL.
I miss the time of 1980’s
I hope we will come back like in the 80’s
God help us till this ass clown is out of the white house
This ‘ clown ‘, will have to be ‘ removed ‘, from the office .
Gee Howard,
You were very complimentary to the guy occupying the White House, that’s one of the nicest things I’ve heard him
called for about 7 yrs.! Any candidate running for pres. but, refuses to wear our Flag pin, stands staring over the heads of the crowd with his hands at his side while The Pledge is recited and the Star Spangled Banner is sung, totally ignoring our flag; should he ever have been considered for President of The United State? NO, NO, NO!
Mick I can not believe after the first time.Some.of our fellow Americans voted him in again. Nor can I believe that he got away with the disrespect for our country. Where in the hell were our bikers who are very proud Americans and let this happen, Most of these guys like myself our vets.
Once again we see how well President Obama’s idea of negotiating from a position of weakness works. The Iran deal is a bad deal. Any sensible person can see that. This president’s legacies will be an nuclear deal that reflects more gullibility than has been seen since the days of Neville Chamberlain, a doubling of the nation’s debt, and a bloated health care bureaucracy.
Some presidents have libraries and museums to tout their success as the nation’s leader. Mr. Obama’s future library will celebrate his failures as president.
Well here’s another view of this administration legacy. He hasn’t failed as a president if his idea of a president was to destroy the US. He’s not intelligent. He studied the causes of countries in past history that which brought about economic collapse and applied those ideas here in the US. Now can America withstand his attack on our society. Hopefully we won’t have another year to find out and he will be impeached, totally , from office before we have the chance to find out…
I agree with you, he should be impeached and tried for his treasonous acts against our great country, America. He and his anti American cronies, Jarred, Soros and Killery have subverted The Constitution and are continuing to do intentional damage to the sovereignty of our great nation, we need to stop them. I believe our elections booth computers were hacked, and he was installed as President. Look it up, I believe the Federal Board of elections was hacked in either 2013 or 2014.
Obama has almost accomplished what he was put in here to do! Soros and no telling who else wanted this country destroyed and Obama fit the part “community organizer” certainly should tell us something about his “experience”. His elections were illegal and the Demwits knew it. First Acorn and their henchmen. The second with ignorant Demwits who thought he was doing a great job. They enlisted the help of all the people in the cemeteries who suddenly and miraculously came to life and voted for the non-American citizen. It really makes the people of America look stupid! Just give out the freebies and they will come running and voting for more freebies! God help us if a decent Christian is not elected in 2016! I feel Trump really loves this country and will make an excellent President! Trump 2016!
His library ‘ ; will prove that he was the worst ‘, one ‘ , whomever was in the office ; in history ,
If he has nerve enough to build a library I wish he’s build it in his home land, not on American soil!
If he had his way, his face would be the fifth at Mt. Rushmore!! Such a narcissist . . .
I am sorry I voted for Obama but I sure wasn’t going to vote Repulican.Now I will if TRUMP wins.:-*
If Hilary gets in it will be Obama 2. We need to bomb the he’ll out of them.We don’t have the money to go to war them issue a war tax.To end after the war is over.9
Huh? As I try to follow your incoherently expressed thoughts, it thus becomes clear to me why you voted for Obama.
I agree with you Tommy , Ron basically mumbled his way thru that paragraph……
” My thoughts ‘ , too .
Moo
Didn’t mean to put moo.
After Obama signed the Iran nuclear deal, after he finishes his remaining term, the hot potato will be left to the new president, see what messes Obama will hurt the Americans, I never regret that I did not vote for him. He is a Muslim and he can never denies it!
I am amused by the idea of a few Iranians demonstrating in the streets that they do not want McDonald’s or Starbucks coming to a country near them. My belief is that the majority of Iranians WOULD want McDonald’s and Starbucks to come to their country but they have to keep quiet about it out of fear for their lives. In many ways, 21st century Iran is quite similar to Nazi Germany in that 1933-1945 era. If you believe anything different from what the government believes, you had damned well better keep your trap shut about it if you know what’s good for you.
Now more than ever. IMPEACH THE BUM FOR TREASON!!!!
Obama did not quash the opposition of the American People to the Iran deal. We are still opposed. Congress, for the most part, have been bought or threatened into submission.
Bought ‘.
obama has not ‘quashed’ the opposition of The American People to the Iran deal. If Congress is going along with this (for the most part, at least), it is because they have been bought or threatened into submission. NO American would do this.
We don’t need enemies. we are the enemy
This country’s worst enemy , is occupying ‘ , our president’s chair ‘.
THIS COUNTRY HAS NEVER BEEN IN THE TROUBLE IT IS NOW. THANKS TO A PRESIDENT WHO ONLY WANTS TO TAKE THE U.S. DOWN. I DON’T KNOW IF WE WILL SURVIVE ANOTHER YEAR OF COMPLACENCY.
Very true!
OBAMA AND KERRY NEED TO BE TRIED FOR TREASON, REMOVED FROM OFFICE AND EXECUTED BEFORE THEY DO ANYTHING ELSE TO DESTROY OUR NATION, I MIGHT ADD CLINTON’S SHOULD BE INCLUDED. THE ONLY PEOPLE I CAN SEE AS OUR LEADER IS TRUMP 1ST AND CARSON 2ND, WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!!!
obozo oops obama will not be out of office fast enough. i believe he is the worse president we have ever had.
Anyone with an ounce of intelligence knows that this has been going on since Soros took the stupid community organizer by the hand and showed him what he wanted him to do beside pick his nose. He will probably end up with his 70 virgin donkeys and some pig feet to chomp on real soon.
if the republicans stop vacationing and do some work for this country maybe obama wouldn’t be able to get away with so much crap, they are just another legal gang selling bulls—-. crying and complaining instead of working
Obama is just trying to keep the peace with Iran. But, however, this is not possible Iran is a country that is run by dictatorship where the people have no say. The women and children are treated very poorly so that in itself tells you that they are an impossibility when it comes to negotiating with them. I would like to see the young people rise up against the leaders there and take over.
Vote folks, vote. Voting puts them in office and voting can get them out of office. Use Kentucky as an example, they made a change. Voting may feel so powerless but it appears to be the only smoking gun that the vast majority of us have. Let’s use what we have. Loved all your comments.
There is a solution. Impeach Obama. Impeach the Supreme Court. Tell Congress that these this must be done. We the People expect the Constitution to be the Law of the Land. We the People need to undo the Harm Obama has done to this Country. The Democrats are going to push this Country down the same road we are on. Whether you are a Democrat, Independent, or Republican we can see we are on the wrong road. The reason I suggested that the Democrats would continue to push this Country down the same road is because of the Candidates they have running for President. Hillary wants to be President at any cost. She will say, do, anything to become President. We know what that means. All the promises are empty because she has her own agenda. The agenda is more important than, The Constitution, The Laws of the Land, and We the People. How do we know this? Hillary’s history. Law, failure to use the email system provided by the Government. Why? A questioned asked by Congress but not answered. Bernie Sanders is a self proclaimed Socialist. What does this mean? Basically the Government owns and supplies the needs of the People. Not too bad. Who decides what the People need and who gets it? Not so nice now. We have that problem in a Representative Democracy. This way we can change it without Revolution. Simplistic yes, but portrays the basic problems. Martin O’Malley. Well he took a Billion dollar surplus when he took office and increased taxes and increased spending, and increased taxes and continued to increase spending. When he left office Maryland was spending more than what they took in taxes. Deficits. Budget short fall. Sounds like the Federal Government. So do you think he will change his Spots. Change the way he does things. I don’t think so. When Maryland had a chance to put O’Malley’s protegee in office, the people chose a to elect a man who promised to lower taxes. Give the People of Maryland the right to spend their money as they would like, not confiscated and spent by the Government how the Government sees fit. My thoughts. Find out all you can about a candidate. What they have done in the past up to yesterday? Know what they have done not what they say they will do. Be an Educated voter.
Obama will declare marshal law.he will then stop the election and take office under state of emergency.and puttin and other countries will come together against usa in an all out war. its not hard to see.he openly said he doesn’t need congress to sign in marshal law.
We did not have an election in 2012 ‘ ; ans he has been a dictator ever since then .
Gary took the words out of my mouth., good job., the only thing left is to put Hillary in jail for the many wrongs that she had done while in office., then there is a problem with that., many people don’t believe she has done anything wrong., just check with a union worker., they think she’s the greatest., why because their union boss told them so., I have several that live next door and that’s what they believe. I have a film called 13 hours at Benghazi by three Security Operatives that are being interviewed telling what really happened there (they have the scars to prove it) on Sept 11, 2014.
We have allowed our communist president, Hussein, to negotiate a nuclear agreement with a country that is constantly cyber attacking us. Am I understanding this correctly??? They are also holding Americans hostage because they used to be Iranians??? One has served in our military and we are leaving him behind???
In less that ten years Iran will launch a nuclear attack against us. They hate us and always have. Why have we not impeached Barack Hussein Obama??? Who voted a clear Muslim into the highest office our nation has??? Forget his autobiography that clearly states he was born in Kenya. Forget the fact that he has publicly stated on several occasions that he is Muslim. Could we not read his name? That clearly says it all. And yet, we voted him in. We deserve exactly what we are getting.
And to all the Conservative voters who stayed home because Romney was not Conservative enough for you: Are you happy??? You sold our country for nothing. Romney could not have possibly done as bad as Hussein. You should be ashamed.
I think Obama is a Muslim. He is the worse President ever! The Iranian deal is horrible! He has really hurt the USA!
Democrats, Republicans and Independents, different names but the same daddy!
WAY TO GO SHIT FOR BRAINS. HOW LONG IS THE AMERICAN CONGRESS AND THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM GOING TO PUT UPU WITH THIS IDIOT. WHAT AN ABSOLUTE WASTE OF A TURD.
THE SUM OF THE WORD IS TRUTH. IT ALL ADDS UP. THE WILL OF GOD IS BEEN DONE. GOD WILL PUNISH THEM ALL. THEN WE SHALL SEE THE NEW ATLANTIS. TO HELL WITH POLITICAL PARTIES.
Obama should be impeached….. Hillary for prison 2016 Obama her cell mate
Obama is a MUSILM SPY and leader of ISIS!
We need to revise the voting requirements for any political office;
1. No Attorneys can run for any public office simply because they are schooled to go which ever direction it takes to win. Which in layman’s terms means right or wrong it does not matter to them. I believe 90 something percent are politicians.
2. Vice President 50 plus years being a politician. Shorter term limits.
3. Start with Congress on not allowing them to give themselves raises! Let the public vote on their performance on what they have done good for We the People and the Country where so many families have given their bloodline (sons and daughters) to keep us free!
4. Show publicly all assets before elections and if they hide and/or don’t properly disclose all and ever asset then will be fired and removed from that public position -public-public-public (we the people) not the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT. This needs to turn around to the old days WE THE PEOPLE/united states government. With out the PEOPLE we and this Country are finished. Remember God didn’t let Hitler succeed. Hopefully he will not give up on us and our stupidity on allowing this all to south.
When I read these comments I don’t see a single person in defense of Obama, so how do the Democrats keep making it happen? I’ll tell you how, I don’t know when the plan to make electoral votes the deciding factor to elect a President, but personally the process is a piece of crap. If a individual is running for the highest office in the land and the largest turn out to vote for an election takes place….so what….New York, Ohio, Delaware, New Hampshire, Maine, New Jersey, California, check out the electoral votes for these states, they always vote Democratic. If you have the majority vote for Trump if he’s the Republican nominee, doesn’t mean a hill of beans if you won by the numbers, you still don’t win unless you somehow take some of those Democratic states, because they’re carrying the majority of the electoral votes. I don’t have a clue who structured this voting process, but I believe a democracy should be run by someone chosen by the ‘majority’ vote. If the small states can’t compete against the larger states, so those Americans would decide to opt out of voting, hey that’s the way it goes, because a majority vote is the only fair way to elect a president. Bottom line on America’s rapid decent into ashes, get some windex and clean off your glasses, this isn’t somehow mysteriously happening, we are beginning to reap our harvest from throwing God out of our classrooms, our government and our marketplace. We said the ‘blue law’ was a outdated, so we chunked it and opened our stores to worship our god of money, don’t think God took that lightly. Then we decided to get prayer our of our schools. Next we decided it was a woman’s right to slaughter her unborn child. Everywhere in film and on the internet is porn, porn and more porn. Our society embraces violence in everything, video games and Hollywood money makers. If you for one moment think America’s decline is just some ‘happen stance’, you seriously need to crawl back under your rock.
