West Fuels Crisis in Iran
Foreign Policy of Iran -10

-Dr. Abdul Ruff

ONE

Devils are still at work. Essentially anti-Islamic block of terrocracies, the Western powers are eager to see more and more deaths of Muslims in the world beyond the occupied Af-Pak-Iraq and is now at work in Iran hiding behind the disgruntled Iranian opposition, both seeking to oust the elected Iran president Ahamadinejad. Neither Islamic Iran nor the new regime in Tehran promotes US agenda n the region and hence US strategists want to see the end of Ahamadinejad as early as possible. The nuclear issue is being used by the West precisely for that purpose.

Even as the demonstrations were going on in Egypt and elsewhere to remove the corrupt despots from power, CIA-Mossad agencies and their European allies were also busy at the same to reignite the anti-Islamic opposition to strike against the elected Ahmadinejad government. Several Iranian opposition activists rallied in support of popular uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia. An opposition website said dozens were arrested while taking part in the banned protests, which amounted to a test of strength for the reformist opposition in the Islamic state.

In many gulf nations, demonstrations have been rocking the capitals. Algeria wants to remove the rulers. Police in Bahrain, where tensions arise from discontent among a Shi'ite majority, fired teargas and rubber bullets to break up pro-reform demonstrations and witnesses said one protester was killed. Analysts say any large-scale unrest in Bahrain could embolden marginalized Shi'ites in nearby Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter.

Turkey has been stead fast in Islamization drive of the society against the wishes of the west and Israel. Since the entire region is caught under prowess of Egyptian revolution, Turkish President Abdullah Gul, on a visit to Tehran, called on Middle Eastern governments to listen to their people. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has called the uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia against secular, Western-allied rulers an "Islamic awakening," akin to the 1979 revolution that overthrew the US-backed shah in Iran.

Unfortunately, the Iranian opposition plays into the dirty hands of the US-UK terror twins to destabilize Iran and get as many Muslims as possible only to get into the anti-Islamic “good books” of USA.  

The Iranian opposition has taken full advantage of the situation in Egypt and the statement of the Supreme Leader, saying the events in Tunisia and Egypt mirror their own protests after the June 2009 presidential vote. Noting official Iranian backing for demonstrations in Egypt and Tunisia, Mousavi and Karroubi asked permission to hold their own marches in “solidarity”. These demonstrations are ostensibly in solidarity with the recent mass uprisings that toppled the regimes of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali in Tunisia and President Hosni Mubarak in Egypt. The protests in response to a call from former presidential candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi and fellow opposition leader Mehdi Karroubi for demonstrations are directed against the Iranian government and, in particular, Supreme Guardian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the most powerful clerical figure in the regime—had been banned.

Obviously, the Iran opposition sees events in Tunisia and Egypt as resembling their own protests after the June 2009 election which they say was rigged in favor of President Ahamadinejad. The Iranian government has denounced the demonstrations for undermining its attempts to use the Egyptian revolution to advance its own strategic and political interests. The authorities declined to permit expansive demonstrations, wary of a repeat of the protests in 2009, which saw the greatest unrest since the revolution of 30 years earlier.

The protest, initially held in Tehran under the pretext of showing solidarity with Arab uprisings, were the first anti-government demonstration since 11 February when similar agitation was crushed by security forces and militiamen. Young men, some holding sticks, gathered around overturned garbage bins, some of which were on fire. Some Tehran protesters chanted "Death to the dictator" during protests, which continued in some places into the evening. Other demonstrators marched in silence. Some chants drew comparisons between the Iranian leadership and the autocrats deposed in recent weeks in Tunis and Cairo. Eight people were killed in those mass street demonstrations which lasted about a month and resulted in many arrests and several executions. Clashes erupted between regime backers and "apparent" supporters of the opposition at a funeral attended by thousands in Tehran of a student killed in anti-government protests of Monday. A witness said security forces fired teargas to scatter thousands marching toward a Tehran square on February 14. There were also clashes between police and demonstrators, and dozens of arrests, in the city of Isfahan.

The last anti-government protest in Iran was in December 2009 when eight people were killed. Iran's prosecutor general Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejeie warned that action would be taken against opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, who reject the presidency of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and who had called for Monday's demonstration which turned deadly. Interestingly, the opposition demonstrations seem to target Iranian government. The demonstrators also marched toward Azadi (Freedom) Square, a traditional rallying point for protests. Hundreds of marchers also gathered in Isfahan and Shir. At least 20 pro-reform activists were arrested before the protests. The opposition said the security forces surrounded the homes of opposition leaders Mirhossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi preventing them joining the march. The scene is reminiscent of 2009 protests by the misguided opposition against the reelection of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

State television described protesters as "Hypocrites, monarchists, thugs and seditionists." "We have information...that America, Britain ad Israel guided the opposition leaders who called for the rally," said deputy police chief Ahmadreza Radan, the Fars news agency reported.  Large numbers of police wearing riot gear and security forces were stationed around the main squares of the capital and pairs of state militiamen roamed the streets on motorbikes.  There were minor clashes at some points across the sprawling capital city of some 12 million people, witnesses said. Mobile telephone connections were down in the area of the protests.

As the west-inspired Iranian opposition is gearing up for an uprising, the Iranian authorities accuse opposition leaders of being part of a Western plot to overthrow the Islamic system. The Fars news agency cited violence on the part of protesters in a report that could herald a hard line by authorities clearly eager to head off any resurgent opposition.

Iranian lawmakers urged judiciary to hand out death penalties to opposition leaders for fomenting unrest in the Islamic state after a rally in which one person was killed and dozens were wounded. Since the opposition leaders Mehdi Karroubi and Mirhossein Mousavi are corrupts on earth the lawmakers demand they should be tried. The term "Corrupt on Earth," a charge which has been leveled at political dissidents in the past, carries the death penalty in the Islamic Iran. Parliament speaker Ali Larijani also accused the USA and its allies of providing support to the opposition. The main aim of Americans was to simulate the recent events in the Middle East in Iran to divert attentions from those countries.

Iran said on Feb 16 that it is planning to take action against opposition leaders after MPs demanded they be executed, as the two former regime pillars defiantly launched fresh anti-government tirades. Iranian authorities have repeatedly accused opposition leaders of being part of a Western plot to overthrow the Islamic system. The claim has been denied by Mousavi and Karroubi. Protests against Iran's clerical establishment appeared to have ended and life was back to normal in Tehran streets and other cities on 15 Feb.

USA that took time to respond to the Egyptian uprising, readily support the demonstrations in Iran. British Foreign Secretary William Hague said of the action against Iranian protesters: "President Ahamadinejad told the Egyptian people that they had the right to express their own views about their country. I call on the Iranian authorities to allow their own people the same right."

Iranians have a right to gather to peacefully express their support for the people of Egypt and Tunisia. But the opposition is trying to expand their demonstration agenda to reignite the fight to remove the government. Hypocrites, monarchists, thugs and seditionists who wanted to create public disorder in Iran were arrested by our brave nation. These people set garbage bins on fire and damaged public property. Wary of a repeat of the protests in 2009, which saw the biggest unrest since Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution, the rulers are expected to step up pressure on the pro-West hardline opposition to prevent a new flare-up.

Iran must insist the people on imbibing Islamic values and virtues to ward off any anti-Islamic tendencies in the society that might slowly and steadily eat away all gains of Islamic revolution. More importantly, the current opposition is badly corrupt and its betrayal would in future as well weaken further the nation which is under virtual siege of the western GST nations led by the NATO terror syndicate and their Eastern terror allies if they come to power. They would obviously pursue the American goals in the region, in stead of Islamic Iran’s needs for onward march toward truthful Islamic way of life in pursuant of best human ideals.

Islam is under serious threat form all anti-Islamic nations, including western USA-UK terror twins and Western India-Israeli terror partners. They have already killed millions of Muslims after invading and occupying Islamic nations and, if the people of Iran do not understand the hidden goals of US-led war on Islam, it would be their loss as well as that of entire Islamic world.

The anti-Islamic devils in democracy suits are definitely till at work in non-Islamic as well as anti-Islamic nations! And some of them are inside Islamic world, including Iran. They could employ even devilish little boys to achieve their goals.
