Flames Flying Burn Those Playing With Fire

By: Kayhan Int’l 

It is dangerous to ignite the flames of sedition against a peace-loving nation that is proverbial for its patience, piety, and prudence, but on no account will passively watch the violation of its sovereignty or the killing of its citizens.

It means those who foolishly play with fire through their acts of aggressions on Iranian interests, territory, or people, by ignoring the repeated warnings, are likely to end up as lifeless bodies when the instruments of divine wrath are unleashed upon them. 

Moreover, the death of such aggressors, whoever they might be, including Global Arrogance or its foot soldiers, does not bring them any relief, but opens up upon them the eternal fire and fury of Hell.

This was the fate of those who recently infiltrated Iran’s northwestern border provinces, tried in vain to stir up sedition, and cowardly killed Iranian guards, on the assumption that they and their bases are safe in Iraqi Kurdistan under the protection of the Great Satan.

Iran’s response, however, was swift and searing as drones and missiles found with pinpoint precision the hideouts of the terrorists, reducing their Israeli-supplied arsenals to debris and many of them to charred bodies or severely injured, writhing in pain and agony for their treason against the country. 

It is self-deception to think that the traitors operating against Iran, whether from across the borders of Iraqi Kurdistan or for from across the borders of Pakistani Baluchistan, are not following the orders of the US, Saudi Arabia, and the Zionist regime.

As a matter of fact these are all coordinated moves against the Islamic Republic and sequels to Donald Trump the Dotard’s breach of the international nuclear accord and his dragging of the US towards its doom on the misconception of forcing Iran to yield.

As a result we have seen the CENTCOM terrorists damage six oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman so far, lose their highly sophisticated and expensive spying drone to a perfect missile shot when it entered Iranian airspace, goad Britain to commit an act of piracy in the Strait of Gibraltar through seizure of a super tanker carrying Iranian crude, and order treacherous elements hiding in Iraqi Kurdistan to cross into Iran to disturb peace and murder Iranian soldiers.

It is hoped that the latest retaliation of the Islamic Republic will serve as a lesson for the US and its cohorts, of the fate that awaits them in case of one wrong move.

In the meantime, as demanded by the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Britain should release the illegally detained tanker ‘Grace 1’ or get ready to face the consequences of its blatant act of piracy on the high seas.

No, Iranian boats did not fail to seize the tanker ‘British Heritage’ in the Strait of Hormuz, as alleged, due to it being escorted by a British destroyer.

If and when Iranian marine patrols decide to divert any British vessel towards Iranian ports, they will do it with a clear announcement and along with British warship(s) as well. 

Relation between Ahvaz terrorist attack and the White House

By: Mohammad Ghaderi

TEHRAN, Oct. 08 (MNA) – The martyrdom of some of our compatriots in the Ahvaz terrorist attack hurt the hearts of all Iranians. The crimes committed by the United States, its western allies, and its Arab pieces in Ahvaz can be analyzed from different dimensions. What's important in this regard is "finding the origin of this attack," and putting together the puzzle pieces that are set by the United States of America.

Although the US government is trying to convince others that the American authorities are basically innocent in Ahvaz terrorist attack, the role of Trump's government in the incident is so highlighted that even his closest companions like John Bolton and Mike Pompeo aren't able to justify it. There is no distinction between producing terrorism (the US and its allies), and field terrorism (operational groups affiliated with the West and the Zionist regime). The United States seeks to encourage individuals to distinguish between supporters and the elements which are involved in the emergence of terrorism.

However, a comprehensive look at terrorist attacks will prevent this distinction. In finding the relationship between the field terrorism and producing terrorism, we should note that the origin and the function of the two are the same. In other words, we are faced with a single network headed by the United States, and the body consists of those terrorist groups.

Another point that should be taken into consideration here is the specific efforts of the Trump government to support anti-Iranian terrorist groups (over the past two years). Rudy Giuliani, who is currently an attorney to Trump, and served as the former mayor of New York, is among the supporters of the Mujahedin terrorist group.

During a recent meeting in New York, Giuliani and some members of the Trump government have expressed support for members of this terrorist group. Obviously, the Ahvaz terrorist attack is the result of the secret (and at times open) lobbies of the White House and anti-Iranian terrorist groups. Trump and other US officials from both the Republican and Democrat parties are responsible for the operational, intellectual, financial and arsenal support of anti-Iranian groups which tried to make our country insecure for four decades and made every effort to create or establish a security crisis in Iran. Therefore, in focusing on the Ahvaz terrorist attack, we can't simply close our eyes on its origin, or consider it as marginal.

Here we're not faced with an "independent terrorist group", but with an "extensive and complex network" that interacts with the main directors (the United States, Britain, and the Zionist regime), the mediating leaders (Arab pieces) and the players (the members of the terrorist groups). There is a direct and deep connection between these three which calls for our close attention.

Obviously, our country's foreign ministry will play an important role in introducing this network, and in taking a tough political response against both its main and minor players. Of course, in this equation, the main players are of more importance. Undoubtedly, all those who were involved in the recent terrorist attack in Ahvaz will pay for it, and the Iranian security officials have emphasized this stance.
