| Iran's Supreme Leader urges Muslim unity in face of West |
| 2015-06-07 |
| [EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei called Thursday for unity in the Moslem world in order to counter "oppression" from the West, on the anniversary of his predecessor's death. In a speech marking 26 years since the death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Theocratic Republic, Khamenei also ruled out any warming of ties with the United States, one of several world powers negotiating a nuclear deal with Tehran. "We must pay attention to conspiracies seeking to divide on the basis of religion, between Shiites and Sunnis, or on an ethnic basis," he said. Khamenei praised Khomeini for having coined the term "the Great Satan™" to refer to the United States, with which diplomatic ties have been severed since 1980. |

| #1 Iran vying with ISIS for control of the caliphate? Just remember, when it comes to killing Christians, Jews, Sunni and Shia get along just fine. |
