Iraqi Muslims Rally Against Global Arrogance & its Agents

By: Kayhan Int’l 

 Similar to the news blackout by the Western and Arab media of the 20-million Arba’een gathering in Holy Karbala a couple of months ago, when millions of Iraqi Muslims while paying tribute to Imam Husain (AS), heartily welcomed millions of pilgrims from all over the world, especially their brethren-in-faith from neighbouring Iran, the massive rallies in Baghdad in support of the religious and political authorities on Thursday and Friday at Tahrir Square which became emptied of the hundreds of sedition-mongering hoodlums that had been occupying it with the backing of the US, Israel, and Saudi Arabia, have been ignored by the so-called international media.
     The vociferous chants of God’s Majesty (Allah-o Akbar) by the gathering composed of Iraqis of all walks of life, including ulema, tribesmen, students, employees and businessmen, carrying portraits of Grand Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Sistani, and placards reading "Death to the US”, Death to Israel”, and Death to the Saudis” was a firm slap on the faces of the meddlers who over the past weeks had tried in vain to create anarchy and give an-anti Islamic and anti-Iranian colour to the rioting by a few hundred agents of Global Arrogance indulging in vandalism, including attacks on government buildings, tearing of the portraits of religious authorities, and torching of the Iranian consulate in holy Najaf.
    From the outset it was clear that the seditious riots which claimed the lives of scores of people were not the work of the Iraqi people loyal to the legitimate authorities, and appreciative of fraternal ties with the Islamic Republic of Iran – always the friend in need of the Iraqi people.
    Moreover, the conspicuous absence of banners inscribed with the words "Ya Ali”, Ya Zahra, "Ya Hussain”, "Ya Abbas”, and "Ya Mahdi”, in honour of the Immaculate Household of Prophet Muhammad (SAWA), for which every true blue Iraqi aspires, whether Shi’a or Sunni, whether Arab or Kurd, during the riots of the seditionists who had draped themselves in the Iraqi flag to deceive onlookers, were clear indications that these remnants of the despicable Ba’thists and the Takfiri terrorists, were anti-nationalists trying to create anarchy on the orders of their masters abroad by attempting to bring down the national government.
    Thanks to the foresight of Grand Ayatollah Sistani the efforts of the enemies of Iraq have failed, and hopefully in the next few days consensus will be reached on naming a new prime minister, following the resignation of the incumbent Adel-Abdul Mahdi – in obedience to the advice of the religious authorities in Najaf, and definitely not to the demands of the rioters, after only a year in office.
     The Islamic Republic of Iran, as the fraternal and friendly neighbour of Iraq, will continue to support the aspirations of the Iraqi people who from now onwards will be firmly present on the scene, and help them strengthen their independence by never allowing any of their avowed enemies (Americans, Israelis, Saudis, etc.) to put up a puppet of Global Arrogance in Baghdad.
     The Iraqi Muslim people are not the inheritors of any ancient Mesopotamian tyrant like Nebuchadnezzar, neither of the medieval usurpers the Abbasids, and not of a modern day megalomaniac like Saddam – let alone simpletons to be deceived by the Wahhabi clique of a spurious and soon-to-be-vanished fiefdom called Saudi Arabia, which used to back the Ba’thists in their genocide of the Shi’as and Kurds, and recently failed in their bid to turn Iraq into a Takfiristan.
    They have a date with destiny and as followers of the Prophets of God and the Infallible Imams, whose shrines serve as beacons of guidance for them, they anxiously await the day of the reappearance of Prophet Muhammad’s (SAWA) 12th and Last Heir, Imam Mahdi (AS) and his global government of peace, prosperity and justice.
    In the meantime, Iran and the Iranian Muslim people, which are also the targets of Global Arrogance and have soundly defeated their devilish designs at every turn – as borne out by the recent massive million-strong rallies in support of the Islamic Republic system – will spare no efforts to coordinate with their Iraqi brethren.

Syria’s Victories Over Terrorists Spells End of US-Zionist Plots

By: Kayhan Int’l 

The recent liberation of Khan Sheikhun by the Syrian army from years of terrorists’ control is indeed a grand victory for the government of President Bashar al-Assad which is determined to regain every inch of occupied territory.

The retreating terrorists, who could have well saved their worthless lives by surrendering, are instead concentrating in Idlib city of the province of the same name on the assumption that either the Americans or the Turks would come to their help. 

Neither Washington nor Ankara, or for that matter the Zionist regime, would bail them out, because these dastardly elements which for the past eight years have been terrorizing the people of people and are responsible for the death of at least half-a-million people, are no longer of any use.

They are likely to be exterminated since they have no chance to stand up against the government forces, even if on US directions they resort to the cowardly use of toxic weapons in a desperate bid to lay the blame on the government. 

What a miserable end for those deceived by the Americans and blindly funded by the terrorist-nurturing Wahabi regime of Riyadh that has spent billions of dollars in vain in a bid to overthrow the government of Bashar al-Assad. 

So, forget the propaganda of the western media of the so-called breach of accord by Damascus, and the supposed human rights catastrophe. 

The three million odd people of Idlib are not in any danger from their own legitimate government, and are eager to return to the national fold from years of being held hostage by the terrorists. 

As specified by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Monday, the military operation of Syrian troops in the town of Khan Sheikhoun does not violate any accord, including agreements between Russia and Turkey on the formation of the de-escalation zone in Idlib, 
He made it clear that the ceasefire regime did not apply to terrorists from the very beginning.

This means that the next step for the Syrian army, after mopping up operations in the surrounding areas of Khan Sheikhoun, is the liberation of Idlib city and the whole of Idlib province itself, before moving on to Raqqa and the Euphrates valley to end the illegal presence of the uninvited American troops which continue to linger as part of their policy to stir up sedition on supporting the Syrian Kurds.

The Syrian Kurds are after all Syrian citizens, and with Damascus ready to meet their just demands for autonomy, there is no question of any protectionism from the US, or fears for Turkey that such an autonomy will inspire its own long suppressed Kurdish population to make fresh demands for their deprived rights.

The Islamic Republic of Iran, for its part, remains firmly behind the people and government of Syria, whether the Americans, the Saudis, and the Zionists like it or not. 
The Resistance Front is too formidable to be cowed down by the enemies of humanity and that includes the murderously insane violations of Syrian airspace by the tottering Zionist regime, which sooner than expected will no longer be on the map of West Asia. 

Why Bahrain was Chosen as Venue of Palestine’s Sellout?

By: Kayhan Int’l 

The Persian Gulf island state of Bahrain, ruled by the repressive Aal-e Khalifa minority regime of pirate origin, is making world headlines these days – both in the so-called mainstream media of an increasingly isolated US, and the independent media of the free world – mainly because of two gatherings.

One is "in Bahrain”, whose rulers desperately cling to the American apron for survival in vain, and the other is "on Bahrain”, whose long suppressed majority, inspired by the model of freedom presented by the Islamic Revolution, is aspiring to be masters of its own destiny – on the pattern of Iraq following fall of the Ba’th minority dictator, Saddam.
The one in the Bahraini capital Manama starts today under the deceptive theme ‘Economic Investment and Peace for Prosperity in Palestine’ as part of the so-called ‘Deal of the Century’ drafted by US President Donald Trump’s Jewish son-in-law Jared Kushner for the grand sellout of the Palestinian people as permanent thralls to the usurper Zionist entity.
The other started last night in holy Qom, with scholars of various countries in attendance under auspices of Bahrain’s senior-most religious figure, Ayatollah Sheikh Isa Qasim – in exile in Iran – and titled: "The Youth Resistance Movement & Commemoration of the Martyrs of Bahrain.”
At the Manama gathering attended mainly by reactionary and unrepresentative Arab regimes, the delegates are being entertained to Trump’s vision of the future for Gaza City, which looks like Tel Aviv: a bustling metropolis with casinos, bars, discos, and scintillating beaches for barely clad men and women, beckoning tourists from around the world, and of course, immune from any Israeli airstrikes for having traded national and Islamic values for the decadent culture of the West.
And Trump’s or more properly Jared the Jew’s vision doesn’t stop there. It draws an imaginary picture of a free to travel 5-billion-dollar highway and railway connecting Gaza with the West Bank of Jordan River, without the current Israeli roadblocks, and major international investors injecting billions of dollars of capital into the Palestinian economy (fifty billion dollars over a ten-year period), doubling GDP and removing all vestiges of poverty.
But wait, the Americans, the Zionists, and the oil-rich Persian Gulf potentates are not dangling this dazzling bait for nothing. They mean business and they want the Palestinians to part with Islam’s third holiest city, Bayt al-Moqaddas, including the sacred al-Aqsa Mosque, which Israel will convert into a Jewish temple.
Moreover, there will be no more talk of any Palestinian state, neither the return of the Palestinian refugees from other countries to their ancestral homes, nor any mention of the term ‘Palestinian citizens’, who henceforth will be known as ‘Israeli Arabs’ having second class status to their Zionist overlords.
All it needs for implementation is the signature of the Palestinian Authority (PA), whose assent means legal sealing of the ‘Deal of the Century’ that will grant powers to the Zionist regime, with approval from the UN, the active involvement of the US, and the tacit support of the reactionary Arab regimes, to brutally crush Hamas, Islamic Jihad and all other Islamic/nationalist organizations refusing to sell their homeland.
For the moment Mahmoud Abbas has decided to boycott the Bahrain meeting, but is under intense pressure from both elements inside his PA for making money (which actually does not exist) and the Arab states, especially the Wahhabi cultish regime of Riyadh – the milk cow which slavishly serves the US and now its newfound Zionist cousins.
It is clear to anyone with an iota of intelligence that only a fool will fall for the ‘Conspiracy of the Century’. It means those pushing forward this deal, from Trump to his trumpeters among the Arabs, are living in a fool’s paradise. They haven’t reckoned the resolve of the Resistance Front, which is growing stronger by the day and is determined to liberate Palestine – against heavy odds and no matter the cost.
But the question is: Why, of all Arab states, Bahrain was chosen as the venue for this scandalous gathering?
The answer is obvious. A rootless regime, not even having any clan pretensions to continue its repressive rule, and depending for survival on the US 5th fleet, is the exact replica of Israel. The Aal-e Khalifa pirates who with British help seized Bahrain in early 19th century, is depopulating Bahrain of its original inhabitants and like the Jewish influx to Palestine from around the world, is settling people of all other countries in order to change the island state’s demography.
Thousands of Bahrainis are living in exile, while thousands linger in prisons, and so far 800 citizens have been stripped of their nationality.
The reign of terror in Bahrain makes the conference in holy Qom all the more important, and holds out high hopes of liberation – Insha Allah (God Willing) sooner than that of Palestine. 
It is only the iron resolve of the Youth Resistance Movement and the sacred blood of the martyrs that have the power to triumph over tyrants – as the Saudi clan will also soon find out to the perpetual dismay of the US and Britain.
