Iranian war cannot end without first understanding radical Islamic mission: eradicate America
Dr. Alex McFarland unveils alarming Islamic agenda, warns Americans to ‘personally accept the call to preserve the republic for future generations’
GREENSBORO, N.C. — As the war with Iran continues to drag on, President Trump recently announced his promise of “economic warfare and isolation on an unprecedented scale” to any country that provides support to Iran. Calling for an “economic D-Day,” Trump urged American allies to stand together to force Iran to submit and end this longstanding feud. Despite this unwavering pressure, Iran so far seems unwilling to compromise, choosing to “double down” on its war with America and her allies.
While Trump’s firm stance towards Iran is a strong start in ending this war, understanding the Iranian mindset and culture is the most important step, according to youth, culture and religion expert Dr. Alex McFarland.
“While we in America may think those in Iran might have the same values and morals as us, the reality is they view their role in global politics in a vastly different light,” said McFarland. “While we have founded our national belief system on biblical values, the Iranian regime is based on Twelver Shia Islam. Many Twelvers believe they are to wait on the turmoil, but many others (including those who run Iran) believe they have a hand in creating the conditions for the turmoil. Based on this worldview, why would they want to negotiate peace with America? It’s a critical mistake for Americans to expect anything different.”
This anti-American worldview is unfortunately spreading outside Iranian borders, claims McFarland. “Islamic Sharia law’s dangerous ideologies are rapidly gaining influence, coexisting alongside the principles of our Constitutional Republic. Such treason must be stopped now. America’s strengths have always rested upon moral conviction, personal responsibility, and the belief that rights come from God, not government. The solutions to our national challenges begin as citizens personally accept the call to preserve the republic for future generations.
“The most important thing Christians do is spread the Gospel, and the second is to ensure that the first thing can be done freely. This quest for religious freedom is at the heart of America’s work in Iran. The actions being taken by the U.S. must happen to protect Americans, both Christians and non-Christians, from Iranian terror exports and desires to suppress freedoms, including the right to choose one’s faith.”
On October 3, McFarland will speak with ex-radical Muslims Mohamad Faridi and Kamal Saleem about the encroaching threat of radical Islam on American ideology in the latest installment of the much-acclaimed Conversations that Matter series. Attendees are invited to listen to Faridi and Saleem as they detail the agenda of Islam and share their determined efforts to evangelize Muslims in the Middle East and U.S. In a world overflowing with opinions and half-truths, this series offers participants a chance to explore what they believe, why they believe it, and how those beliefs shape their lives.
