Tehran University Professor Foad Izadi likes what he sees happening on American college campuses. 

Izadi said in an interview on Iranian state television station IRIB Ofogh that "these are our people." He said that he is a part of Iran's brutal Islamic dictatorship and they are cheering on the protests all across America.

He boasted that Iran has Hezbollah-like militant cells hiding in the United States. He took credit for Iran keeping "the Palestinian idea" alive. Izadi said that the movement would have closed down if not for the support of the Iranian regime. 

'Sooner or later, this kind of support for the Zionist regime by the American regime will diminish. It might not stop completely, but its diminishing is important,' he said.

'We are watching the demonstrations and like what we see, but it should not end with this.'

'The idea of resistance belongs to Iran, but on the operational level, when it comes to recruiting connections and building networks, the [Iranian] state has not been involved in a sufficient level,' he said.

The most chilling part of the interview came when the professor said that if a war between Iran and America broke out, the protesters would support Iran over their own country. 

'These are our people,' he said.

'If tensions between America and Iran rise tomorrow or the day after, these are the people who will have to take to the streets to support Iran.'

As appalling as that claim is, he could be right. The pro-Hamas protesters hate America, as well as Israel. They chant "Death to America" on American soil, in addition to "Death to Israel." They replace the American flag with Palestinian flags. Some of the useful idiots claim to be Hamas, an internationally recognized terrorist organization. We should believe them when they tell us who they are. 

Their parents must be so proud. Or, maybe they are. Maybe these punks have been raised to be like this.

There was the standard reference to the United States as the Great Satan. Izadi claimed Iran could do more damage to the United States with an armed militant group than it did in Lebanon. Hezbollah created chaos there for decades. It's likely not a coincidence that Izadi mentioned Hezbollah sleeper cells already here in America. 

'Personally, I think that the potential to repeat in the US what Iran did in Lebanon is much higher,' he said. 'Our Hezbollah-style groups in America are much larger than what we have in Lebanon. 

'America is the Great Satan and our main enemy, but we have hope in these areas.'

Great Satan or not, guess where the professor was educated? Yep. Right here in the good ole USA. He got his bachelor's and master's degrees at the University of Houston. His doctorate is from Louisiana State University. He returned to Iran after he completed his degrees. 

While at LSU he did an externship at the USC Center on Public Diplomacy with a 'research project examining the recent US public diplomacy objectives and methods in Iran.'

His project would 'identify institutional processes and players in U.S. public diplomacy initiatives toward Iran and will investigate how these initiatives fit with the concept of new public diplomacy'.

At Houston, he won an award for his paper A Discourse Analysis of American Newspaper Editorials: The Case of Iran's Nuclear Program.

Our enemies are watching. Joe Biden is feckless. His statement on antisemitism was marred by his insistence on putting mentions against Islamophobia in his message. He can't bring himself to just say antisemitism is wrong. The statement should stand alone. He was there to speak about the protests. There is no Islamophobia in the protests, only antisemitism and hatred for Israel and America.
