Shock Report: Valerie Jarrett Leading Secret Talks With Iran

Nov. 5, 2012 10:04am Mytheos Holt

The face of the Obama administration’s outreach to Iran may have just been unmasked, and it’s allegedly Valerie Jarrett.

Last month, the New York Times informed America that the Obama administration has been running secret talks with Iran in order to facilitate a working relationship once tomorrow’s election is over. Official disavowals were not long in coming, even as off the record sources confirmed that the talks were taking place.

And thanks to YNetNews, we may now know who the administration’s designated voice is: Obama confidante and senior adviser Valerie Jarrett. From the article:

A Chicago lawyer is the key player behind the secret talks between the US and Iran, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Monday. A close friend of Michelle Obama, Valerie Jarrett is assisting the US government communicate behind the scenes with the representatives of Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei.

Jarret, who was born in the Iranian city of Shiraz, is a senior advisor to US President Barack Obama.

TheBlaze reported on the background underlying these negotiations near the tail end of last month, in a story by Isreal-based correspondent Sharona Schwartz. Here’s Schwartz’s take on what a full-scale diplomatic relationship with Iran might mean:

While the body of the report offers no further detail about what full diplomatic relations would mean, a graphic accompanying Maariv’s report (pictured above, beneath the images of Obama and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad) states renewed relations would include: direct flights between Washington or New York and Tehran; granting entry permits for American visitors to Iran and for Iranians to visit the U.S.; “security cooperation and defense of citizens visiting in the host country”; diplomatic dialogue at a senior level; and an exchange of senior officials’ visits.

If true, Maariv’s report provides another example of Obama’s long-held belief that negotiations can stop Iran’s nuclear march.

Jarrett’s status as a White House confidante and major figure has been well-known for some time, but this bit of news marks her first foray into being an official foreign policy surrogate. If Obama is reelected tomorrow, however, it certainly might not be the last.

  Well, at least she didn’t have to go and buy a full black Burka. After she put it on you could still see those evil eyes. Bet she was the one that ordered the CIA to stand down in Bengazia. Obam makes no decisions without consulting with Jarret.

What next your going to say that Huma Weiner and HRC are not in talks with the muslim brotherhood. But Obozo is the a friend of the muslim’s who’s counting?

  Wonder what Shillary’s reaction to this was? Was she in the loop or was it a “need to know” basis only and neither Obama nor La Consigliere thought she needed to know. Given La Consigliere’s track record in Chicago, this does not bode well.

  Yes, I think I can agree with that, Guru.
  
  I had been digging in this area for a while and found a pointer to Jarret’s involvment, but not proof. Never-the-less, it is a most agreeable feeling to be proven right.
  
  The more important point, however, is WHAT they were negotiating.
  
  Ms Jarret’s team was trying to persuade Iran to announce that they were suspending their nuclear enrichment program in order to help Mr Obama win re-election. They cynically suggested that the suspension only needed to be for a few weeks, and once Mr Obama was re-elected, they could continue enrichment and Mr Obama would lift as many sanctions as he could as a payback.
  
  In the absence of such an announcement from Iran, I assumed that the Jarret team had failed and I dropped it.
  
  I was wrong.

  The Obama administration will do anything to stay in power, it seems, and colluding with the enemies of the west for their own gain is obviously not a problem for them.

  PS the reason I despise these freaks: Michelle, Valarie, Obama and then Axelrod, Emanuel, Ploueffe because they came from privilege. They had excellent (albeit COMMIE infiltrated) educations, they COULD HAVE ACCOMPLISHED SO MUCH good in their lives but NO!!! THEY have misused every vestige of power; they’ve flaunted their power, mocked AMERICANS; spent OUR MONEY like the DICTATOR wanna be’s and their arrogance has been unmatched. THEY ARE THE SPOILED BRATS of the world.

  Valeria Jarrett is a person not to be trusted. She’s literally taken over the White House and tells everyone what to do, how to do and how high to jump, gets rid of anyone who won’t jump high enough.
  
  Looking at her is literally looking into the face of Satan and we should all be very afraid of her power and her intentions to hook up with Iran. My husband lived in Iran for a few years and he said they are the type people who never give up, even for silly little things like the right-of-way in auto’s. They’d sit there all day and honk at each other before either would give up the right of way.(kinda stupid)

  CIA knows who she is they have to vet her when Obama first won election in 08 before she could come to Washington with them to the WH.
  This must be the reason that she has a security detail, maybe some Iranians that oppose normalization with the Mullahs in Iran have made noises about this and it was not polite.
  It would have been better for a Man to do the negotiations since it is their religious belief that women are not competent in the ways of Government and ruling. They did not make her wishes come true about a cessation of uranium enrichment.

I thought so. Just another trader working for the Muslim Brotherhood.

What’s sad is that there are millions of Americans that don’t know anything about the Brotherhood and their “Project”.

This is damn scary what this administration has been doing to our country. Tomorrow we take our country back. I would hope that we continue to look into what else they have done to us and not only fix and reverse it, but make them all accountable. It is time we identify EVIL and and cease to accept these liars. Romney/Ryan is our hope, the American person is the solution.

This reminds me of the time that Democrats were still “talking” to Japanese diplomats in Washington, while Japanese planes were flying toward Pearl Harbor. Democrats are idiots. And they, apparently, NEVER learn. NOBAMA 2012

  Barber:
  Postings by progressives here have convinced me that they read – but do not comprehend, they hear but do not listen. Progressives are so focused on their ideological agenda they do not spend time with such trivial things. The Soetoro story on the Blaze seems to bear that out, underscored by a pre-requisite of deception.

  Not a very good comparison. Nobody knew they were coming. Of course, the way the west and especially the US was portrayed in Japanese propaganda in those days should have opened some eyes, which it didn’t. Yet the comparison still doesn’t fly. At least FDR, for all his faults and errors, had a somewhat strong stance on the fascists, something you can’t say about today’s Democrats at all. FDR wanted to help Churchill. Obama would sit back and let the UK fight for herself.
