“Today’s situation of certain Islamic governments and their humiliation by the cruel powers are the result of their fear of the enemies of Islam.”
Once again Iran’s Supreme Leader frames the conflict between the Islamic Republic of Iran and the West in terms of Islam. Yet Islamic tenets are the first element of the conflict that U.S. counterterror “experts” discount.
“Ayatollah Khamenei: Iranians must not be scared of bullies,” Tehran Times, April 26, 2020:
TEHRAN – Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei suggested late on Saturday that the Iranian people must not be afraid of the United States and other bullying powers.
“Fear of the United States will have bitter results. In the past years, we have witnessed that some of our statesmen’s fear of the United States caused difficult problems for them,” he said at a Quran recitation ceremony which was held through videoconference at the presence of a number of outstanding Holy Quran reciters.
The Leader said that “not being afraid of the enemy and standing strongly against him” is an important order of Quran….
“Today’s situation of certain Islamic governments and their humiliation by the cruel powers are the result of their fear of the enemies of Islam,” the Leader regretted.
Ayatollah Khamenei mentioned “not trusting or turning to the oppressors”, “the observance of justice and fairness in life,” and “not betraying a trust” as other orders of Islam.
The Leader attached great importance to obeying the practical guidelines of Quran as the only way to save humanity from cruelty, discrimination, war, insecurity, depression of values and to establish security, health and welfare.
The holy Quran instructed human beings to use their wealth and power for the development of other humans’ lives and help the needy people, the Leader said.

(A) No – it instructs muslims to help only other muslims and to extort money from non-muslims, and
(B) He can make a start on helping “the needy people” by chipping in the billions that he and his barbarian bandiiti have stolen from the Iranian people.

Yes, the mullahs are BANDITS without a shred of conscience.

“No – it instructs muslims to help only other muslims and to extort money from non-muslims”
Of course, when they can’t extort enough jizya from the filthy kuffar, well, more zakat!
mortimer says
Yes, don’t be afraid of nuclear annihilation or catastrophic damage to infrastructure of Iran such as occurred OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM resulting in the arrest, trial and execution of Saddam Hussein.
Imagine the arrest, prosecution and execution of the mullahs! How many millions of Iranians are looking forward to that ?
Jyoti Prakash Mitra says
As per Ayatollah Khamenei, better results will arrive if Islam is spread with the root essence, it refers to new polygamy. Hilarious!
mortimer says
JPM, the essence of Islam is submission … another word for ENSLAVEMENT.
Infidelicus says
Iran’s mullahs are the bullies.
Keys says
Yes, they are the bullies for the true enemy of Iran – Islam.
Many Iranians “fear” its leaders for good reason, because they are the “oppressors” who the people do not “trust”; they “humiliate” the people of Iran if they do not “submit” to their “power”.
Khomeini is projecting his “cruel powers” unto those who see the truth of his schemes and will not submit, nor fear, him and his regime.
The enemy of Iran is Islam.

Khamenei: Some Islamic states suffer “humiliation by the cruel powers” due to “their fear of the enemies of Islam”
……………………
Note that Muslims are “humiliated” by our very existence as free nations. What could be “crueler” to Muslims than Infidels–especially Jews–living in freedom?

Well, well! Looks like CAIR should lodge their noses up this crack case! Looks like Khamenei has an ill-legitimate case since he is whining about the United States! While we are at it, let’s ask how many ill-legitimate cases CAIR has in courts right now. I believe more than any other torts law suits combined. I have warned many times over the last 20 years that tyrants will invade and become hairshirts on our backs. The calls to Islamic prayer will never stop. Imams will capture theocratic power in America because ignorant mayers/politicians give it to them freely; exposing minorities to the perils of the theocratic government that stole everyone’s constitutional freedoms and rights. The Constitution of The United States of America is your most power weapon! Use it! No Ammendment takes precedence over another! Don’t let a tyrant fool you!
Political Oracle says
That’s mayors, not mayers…
