Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Khamenei Calls For Sunni, Shia Unity
2007-01-09
Weekend at Sayed's!
Iran's top ayatollah Monday called on Muslim nations to preach togetherness between Shia and Sunni in the face of what he termed an Anglo-American plot. Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khameni told an audience in Tehran that the ongoing sectarian violence in Iraq was the result of U.S. and British agitation aimed ultimately at Iran.

Iran's IRNA news service said the bloody feuding between Shiites and Sunnis in Iraq was caused by the West as a cover for its failed policies in not only Iraq and Afghanistan but Palestine and Lebanon as well. He also cautioned Arab leaders not to form alliances with the United States and Britain against Iran, whose nuclear program has led to calls for economic sanctions, according to IRNA. "Even though such an alliance takes shape, it will not work, because it would be an alliance against Islam," Khamenei said.

He repeated that Iran would not cancel its nuclear enrichment program, and that Iranian influence in the Persian Gulf was beneficial to the entire region.
"Helmuth, speaking for Boskone, out!"

A clasic R.O.P. moment. Western holy men usually preach togetherness without reasoning it.

#2  What, no mention of Israel? Even the brainwashed Europeans, and Holliwood stars with delusions of being directors, know were the source of all evil lies!

#1  Hold on a sec, this is the muhula that is 'possed to be in a stable condition. Is his lip moving? Upper, lower?

He seems to be repeating himself. Someone should check whether there were some recent Iran's purchases of Japanese androids.
