Taqiyya – Why Iranian Persian Shiite Cunn ing
Cannot Be Trusted
It is permissible to lie with the tongue, but it is wrong to lie in the Heart
Iranians can religiously lie to unbelievers with the tongue about making WMD
Because they must have nukes “in their time of need,” and so aren’t lying in Heart!

You have heard me speak many times of Persian cunning.
They are a very religious people who have managed to twist Koran Scripture interpretations to fit what gives them the best deal in dealing with unbelievers. They are able to lie to unbelievers in diplomatic meetings with what the unbelievers know are bald face lies, and yet their consciences are so clear of guilt about it, that some unbelievers actually begin to feel perhaps it is the truth. The best example of such a bald face lie is the whopper they keep on telling about not planning to develop nuclear bombs for their war heads. It is hard to believe, but some far left radicals actually believe they are not trying to develop nuclear weapons.
Reference 1:
Ibn Abbas said: “al-Taqiyya is with the tongue only; he who has been COERCED into saying that which angers Allah (SWT), and his heart is comfortable (i.e., his TRUE faith has NOT been shaken.), then (saying that which he has been coerced to say) will NOT harm him (at all); (because) al-Taqiyya is with the tongue only, (NOT the heart).”
NOTE: The two words “tat-taqooh” and “tooqatan,” as mentioned in the Arabic Quran, are BOTH from the same root of “al-Taqiyya.”
NOTE ALSO: The “heart” as referred to above and in later occurrences refers to the center of faith in an individual’s existence. It is mentioned many times in the Quran.
Reference 2:
Ibn Abbas also commented on the above verse, as narrated in Sunan al-Bayhaqi and Mustadrak al-Hakim, by saying: “al-Taqiyya is the uttering of the tongue, while the heart is comfortable with faith.”
NOTE: The meaning is that the tongue is permitted to utter anything in a time of need, as long as the heart is not affected; and one is still comfortable with faith.

Excerpt 1 from Christian Scientist Monitor
The Reason Iran Can’t Be Trusted
Mamoun Fandy
Should the West trust Iranian promises? The short answer is “no.” Taqiyya is the Shiite religious rationale for concealment or dissimulation in political or worldly affairs. At one level it means that President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad can tell himself that he is obliged by his faith not to tell the truth.
In Iran, the teachings of Shiite Islam govern all aspects of society, and taqiyya is one of the key elements of the Shiite faith. While many outsiders are surprised by Iran’s concealment of its nuclear installations, those who study the Shiite faith and recognize
the signs of taqiyya are not.
Taqiyya requires the faithful to be deceitful at times of weakness.
The teachings of Jafar al-Sadiq, the sixth Shiite imam, emphasize taqiyya as a political tool. “Befriend people on the surface, and keep your grudges and intentions hidden,” he advised. The writer is director of the Middle East program at the International Institute of Strategic Studies in London. (Christian Science Monitor)
Excerpt 2 from the Washington Post

Excerpt 3 from New York Times
Frustration as Iran Stalls on Deal
Steven Erlanger
Senior officials from Western powers meeting in Brussels discussed the possibility on Friday of new sanctions on Iran for flouting the UN Security Council’s demands. “We are disappointed by the lack of follow-up to the three understandings reached” in Geneva on Oct.
1, the officials said Friday in a statement. Iran has “not responded positively to the IAEA proposed agreement for the provision of nuclear fuel for its Tehran research reactor,” the statement said.
Nor has Iran “engaged in an intensified dialogue” with the West about its nuclear program. Iran also failed to meet the group again by the end of October, as it had agreed to do.
