| Roknabadi: STL an Israeli Plot to Sow Discord, Prepare Ground for Israeli Attack |
| 2010-11-30 |
| [An Nahar] Iranian Ambassador to Leb Ghazanfar Roknabadi has noted that Premier Saad Hariri's visit to Tehran "comes amid very critical situations in the region and bears great importance in terms of timing -- after (Iran's diminutive President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad's visit to Leb." In an interview with Iran's Arabic-language Al-Alam television, Roknabadi warned that "Israel and its allies don't want the welfare of Iran or Leb." "They are trying to incite discord and unrest in the region, especially in Leb, and they don't want the scene of calm and stability to prevail in the region," the Iranian diplomat added. "The Special Tribunal for Leb and the so-called indictment it will issue are a conspiracy and an Israeli plot to sow discord and divisions to prepare the ground for an aggression" on Leb, Roknabadi warned. As he noted that the "wisdom of Lebanese leaders and people is capable of preventing any party from influencing the Lebanese arena," the Iranian ambassador said that "Tehran's policy is based on unifying all Lebanese parties and supporting any effort in this regard, especially the Syrian-Saudi bid." |
