Popular Post webfact Posted May 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 20, 2020 Iran will support any nation or group that fights Israel - supreme leader FILE PHOTO: Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei delivers a televised speech on the occasion of the Iranian New Year Nowruz, in Tehran, Iran March 20, 2020. Official Khamenei website/Handout via REUTERS (Reuters) - Iran will support any nation or group that fights Israel, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday, ahead of this week's annual observance of Quds (Jerusalem) Day to express support for Palestinians. "We will support and assist any nation or any group anywhere who opposes and fights the Zionist regime, and we do not hesitate to say this," Khamenei said in a post on his official English-language Twitter account. Iran, Israel’s arch-enemy in the Middle East, has been a key supporter, along with Russia, of President Bashar al-Assad during Syria’s civil war, sending military advisers as well as material and regional Shi’ite militias. Israel, which monitors neighbouring Syria intensively, has carried out hundreds of air strikes in Syria targeting suspected arms and troop movements by Iran and the Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas that Tehran sponsors. Separately, Khamenei said on Wednesday that Iran's enmity toward Israel was not the same as hostility toward Jewish people. "The elimination of the government of Israel does not mean the elimination of Jews. We don't have an issue with Jewish people," Khamenei said in a post on his official Farsi-language Twitter account. "'Elimination of Israel' means the Muslim, Christian and Jewish people of #Palestine choose their own government themselves and push out foreigners and thugs like [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu," the post added. Khamenei is scheduled to speak on Friday to commemorate Quds Day.

I know some decent Iranians who suffer from those geriatric dictatorship. I think there are more of them. This festering ulcer of muslim religon needs to be eradicated. But I hope for some "surgical" excision to save the good people in that country.

Jewish minority has been living in Iran since ages. This jewish minority is represented in the Iranian parliament. None of these jews want to go to live in Israel. Abraham was actually born in the region between Mesopotamia and Persia. Iran has no problems with jews. Iran has a problem with Zionist interference (read wars) with their Shia proxy allies. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nausea Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 As far as I'm concerned two Arab tribes fighting each other for dominance. Yeah, I know, Iranians aren't strictly arab, but they come from the same cultural background. Let's hope the Israelis, Iranians, and Saudis, never unite; now that's a scary thought.

I have no love lost for any religion, but I hope all people have the right to decide for themselves and not only the "chosen ones" Islam has flourished in Persia since 651 AD , they are not about to give it up because some enterprising upstarts from Europe showed up to collect what Yahweh had promised them. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atheists. Illegal to convert, illegal to preach Iranian society is governed by Islamic law, which means the rights of and professional possibilities for Christians are heavily restricted. Christians are forbidden from sharing their faith with non-Christians in Iran, and it is illegal to produce Christian literature or hold church services in Farsi, the most common language in Iran. Converts from Islam face persecution from the government. If Christians attend an underground house church, they face the constant threat of arrest.

Iran, rather nicely, calls for Israeli citizens, whether Christian, Moslem or Jew to be allowed a democratic vote rather than having zionism imposed on them. Wonder if they understand the irony?
