Dayyān, Concealed Bābī Histories and the Haifan Bahāʾī menace: Podcast II with Stephan Beyer
In this
podcast Stephan Beyer and Wahid Azal casually converse and explore, first,
broaching the episode of Dayyān and how he may have lost his mind and even
possibly been interfered with by a third party to make his denunciation of the
Bāb and claim the supreme station; the poisoning incident in Edirne; the
lifestyle of the Nūrī household before their exile from Iran; the unities
(chapters) of the Arabic Bayān composed by Subḥ-i-Azal following unity
(chapter) 11 during the Baghdad and Cyprus periods; Bayanic.com; the hack Bei
Dwei/Zlaod Dawud
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/soc.culture.iranian/AiydAMBTCNY); the
Chicago Bahāʾī Temple; the attitude of the American and Israeli religious
Jewish communities towards the Bahāʾīs; Bahāʾī designs on the state of Israel
itself; William Sears’ “Thief in the Night”; ʿAbdu’l-Bahā’s trip to America and
the geopolitics behind his trip; Bahāʾullāh letters to the kings and potentates
of the 19th century; the uber-extravagant and opulent hollywoodesque zeitgeist
of Haifan Bahaism as the consummate manifestation of the Neoliberal Capitalism;
the Islamic Republic of Iran and its dubious exile opposition; the NeoCons, the
Baha’is and the New World Order; Islamophobia and the Iranian Baha’is as
colonized subjects; how the Bāb clued into the menace of Western imperialism
long before the mullāhs did; Peter Smith as the biased reviewer of Wahid Azal’s
“The Organizational Hierarchy of the Bābīs” article; debunking the Baha’i lie
regarding Bayanic.com; Baha’is as violators of human rights; the gentlemen and
scholars Todd Lawson and Stephan Lambden; Moojan Momen as the “Baghdad Bob” of
Baha’i scholarship; Juan R.I. Cole’s shillery for Empire
(https://www.counterpunch.org/2011/08/30/meet-professor-juan-cole-consultant-to-the-cia/);
the collapse of Libya and Benghazi; Wetiko (see
https://www.kosmosjournal.org/article/seeing-wetiko-on-capitalism-mind-viruses-and-antidotes-for-a-world-in-transition/);
the Arab Spring; Obama and America versus China and the resource rape of
Africa; the Iranian Constitutional Revolution and Siyyid Miqdad-Nabavi Razavi’s
tārīkh-i-maktūm (Concealed History); the ‘Wretched of the Earth’ (mustaḍafīn
fī’l-arḍ) and the religion of the Bayān as a Twelver Shiʿite post-Islamic
eco-socialist spiritual Fanonism.
