This is quite a coup for the Trump administration. Best to keep him far away from the Democrats. They would return him to the murdering mullahs.
A senior Iranian military officer affiliated with the country’s Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC, has fled the Islamic Republic with a cache of secret documents said to contain information on Tehran’s military plans, according to reports.
Ali Nasiri, a former IRGC brigadier general who once headed Iran’s counterintelligence operations, is reported to have fled Iran and requested political asylum at a U.S. embassy in an unnamed Gulf country, according to a report carried in Iran Commentary, an online news portal that publishes information about Iran’s human rights abuses and illicit activity.

EXCLUSIVE: IRGC Commander believed to have defected to the West
April 22, 2019, ISICRC Staff
Brigadier General Ali Nasiri, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Protection Bureau
Brigadier General Ali Nasiri, head of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps Protection Bureau, is said to have fled to the West after a fallout with the representative of the Supreme Leader in the IRGC.
On Thursday, April 11th, during a meeting among the senior IRGC intelligence officials, Nasiri and Hossein Taeb, the representative of the Supreme Leader to the IRGC came to blows. The following days, when Nasiri failed to show up for work, it was revealed that he had actually left the country.
Nasiri, already commander of the Seyyed al-Shohada unit of the Guards in Tehran Province, was appointed in 2017 by Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, commander-in-chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.
The website of the Al-Mayadin news agency which is affiliated with the Lebanese Hezbollah posted the news without much detail on Saturday, April 13, but removed it only after half an hour.
Nassiri is said to have gone to a US embassy in one of the Persian Gulf countries while carrying important strategic documents, seeking political asylum. The IGGC’s Protection Bureau was established in 1984, to oversee aviation and flight security (hijacking and bombing), as well as protection for regime and government officials, and foreign dignitaries visiting Iran.
On Friday, April 19, without referencing Nasiri, the state-run Fars News Agency, reported: “By the decree of Maj. Gen. Jafari, the commander-in-chief of the Revolutionary Guards, Brigadier General Fathollah Jomayri was appointed head of the Protection Bureau of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.” Jomayri was previously, commander of the Imam Sadiq Guards Unit of Bushehr Province, as well as the al-Ghadir Guards Unit of Yazd Province.
Fathollah Jomayri has replaced Nassiri as head of the Protection Bureau of the IRGC.
In an attempt to contain the rumor, the regime’s spin doctors are now claiming that Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran dismissed Nasiri. A source inside the regime told Iranian media members: “Following the leak of classified documents and information to Israel and the US regarding Iran’s nuclear program and secret missile bases, Mohammad Ali Jafari, commander in chief of the IRGC, under Khamenei’s order, dismissed Ali Nasiri, commander of the IRGC security.”
Fathollah Jomayri has replaced Nassiri as head of the Protection Bureau of the IRGC.

I wish I had money to give but I did switch from Google to DuckDuckGo and have not looked back.
I use DuckDuckGo. All they really provide is no tracking of where you go. But if you search for items and if they have a conservative point to them you will see side by side almost the exact same top “hits” as Google. Something tells me their underlying search engine is in fact Google.
Just maybe this man may bring with him the kind of information that will enlighten the Democratic Party, and the rest of the free world, to the fact that Obama’s Nuclear deal with this theocracy/ despotic country was both totally wrong and stupid.
DEMS don’t care or want to hear it. DEMS and RINOS are beyond reasoning with.
Longtime GOP Lawmaker Quits Party Over Trump
GOP Presidential Staff April 23, 2019
An Iowa state lawmaker has said he is leaving the Republican Party because of his loathing for President Trump.
Rep. Andy McKean, 69, a retired lawyer and the longest serving Republican currently in the Iowa legislature, announced Tuesday he would register as a Democrat after being a Republican for almost 50 years.
“With the 2020 presidential election looming on the horizon, I feel, as a Republican, that I need to be able to support the standard bearer of our party. Unfortunately, that is something I’m unable to do. I believe that it is just a matter of time before our country pays a heavy price for President Trump’s reckless spending and short-sighted financial policies, his erratic, destabilizing foreign policy, and his disregard for environmental concerns,” he said in a statement.
McKean, long regarded as a moderate, blamed Trump for fueling an “unprecedented divisiveness” and said he sets a poor example by hurling insults at those who disagree with him and his “frequent disregard for the truth.” He added: “If this is the new normal, I want no part of it.”
…
Andy is likely in the early stages of Dementia . . . . 8 years of race baiting Obama & the endless Obama corruption were of no concern to this dope ! ! !
It would be nice to think so, but I will believe it when I see it on a consistent basis. If Bibi’s revelation of Mossad’s cache about the Iranian nuclear program didn’t cause Dems to rethink, I doubt anything will.
Does anyone remember “Operation Paperclip”? This was after WWII when America brought HUNDREDS of NAZIS into America with a new name and paperwork. These NAZI SYMPATHIZERS ended up in WELL PAID government “jobs”. Very little was ever spoken about these NAZIS!

He thinks he is safe in west ? Nah ! Left/liberal elites will sell him out for cash. ….or iranian agents will hunt him down.
It’s more the other way around.
Iran is crazy enough to do that. That’s why Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia are talking with Israel. There is no sudden love for Israel. They fear Iran. Once the Big Satan is out of the way, then the Little Satan is easy pickings. The U.S. is not mentioned in prophecy except in the statement that all nations go against Israel. Up until Obama, defending Israel had been a bipartisan issue. That is no longer true.

Anti Whites demand ‘diversity’, open borders, mass immigration – where White people live Only.
If diversity is such a strength, why is this “gift” given to White populations only, when there are so many non white places that “need” it much more?
When are leftist tropes like diversity or mass immigration or so-called anti racism ever demanded of any non white peoples anywhere?
Why is open borders a White ‘Privilege’?
White people have not done anything non whites haven’t. Not slavery, not colonialism, nothing. And they’ve faced it all themselves. See: Turkey, Mongolia, North Africa, the Slavs, the Irish…
If it’s because of “the Natives”, they can’t explain this: How does importing more “thieves” to this “stolen land” help the Aboriginals? And how does importing random third parties as a solution to a two-party problem make any sense?
It’s clear that ‘anti racist’ is just code for Anti White
And that diversity is CODE for White Genoc-de
The anti colonialists always forget that nearly every country which was colonised got their country back in the post world war 2 era. None of the countries colonised by the Muslim Arabs have got their countries back except for Spain.
I say nearly every country as the Australian aborigines and Native American Indians and some Pacific Islanders are still under colonial rule.

yiyoya, I think he is reasonably safe in the US if given a new identity by the CIA, DHS or DOJ, assuming he keeps a low profile. I believe those these programs have a good record to date when the subject cooperates. I would be more concerned about his family in Iran, and I hope he made provision for them.

Let’s all wait and see if he is not just a false defector full of misinformation first. I don’t trust any of them
Yes, it warrants thorough investigation that he is a genuine defector, but let’s hope he is.

I do not see the usual sources listed. So I am withholding any serious rejoicing until I learn a WHOLE LOT more. Now, if he defected and became a Christian THAT would be big news. But I am betting that is not the case.

A prime example of a legitimate asylum claim in view of all those of the counterfeit opportunistic thugs flooding our southern border.
Nasiri has correctly read the writing on the wall in front of which which the firing squad was going to stand him in his execution.

He must know how demented the Muellers are, er the Mullahs.
I hope this man is genuine…and that he may have some critical information for the West.

Support the Resistance.Crush the Mullahs.Restore the Pahlavi’s. This defection is hopefully one of many finally leading to the destruction of the mullah tyrants and the restoration of the Pahlavi dynasty.

Lets hope this is a true defection but beware the islamists are taught deceit, treachery and hate from birth. they have many forms such as taqiyyah , Kitman, etc. etc.
Al-taqiyya and dissimulation are words used for a practice of Muslims blatantly lying to non-Muslims. All but some of the most fundamental Muslims consider the act of Al-taqiyya or lying to non-Muslims to be a good work. This is very important when one remembers that, in Islam, salvation is determined by good works. This means that a Muslim lying to a non-Muslim is that Muslim doing a good work to earn salvation. It is almost equivalent to a Christian accepting Jesus as his savior. One of the big differences is that a Christian only needs to accept Jesus as his savior once to become saved forever but a Muslim must do his good works consistently and repeatedly to earn his salvation with the except of the greatest work of dying while fighting non-Muslims.

We should be extremely suspicious of a senior Iranian military officer affiliated with the country’s Revolutionary Guard Corp and watch them like a hawk 24/7.
He may have “defected” to get close to our military and spy for Iran. Do you remember the saying, “Keep your friends close but your enemies closer”?
“The Prophet (Muhammad) said, “War is deceit.” (Bukhari, Book 52, hadith 268).
So ask yourself how likely it would be for a person who belongs to a group who have adhered to a belief system like Islam for over 1,400 years to suddenly decide to abandon his faith and join the other side.
