Iran Says Hizbullah Fighting 'Enemies' Plans' in Syria

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Iran on Thursday expressed that Hizbullah's involvement in the Syrian war is a defense against “the enemies' plans,” stressing that the party does not interfere in “sectarian conflicts.”

"All the Islamic world respects and values Hizbullah for its fight against the enemies of Islam, particularly against the Zionists,” Iranian foreign ministry's spokesperson Abbas Araqji said, explaining that the party's “procedures in defending Syria aim at facing the enemies' plans.”

"Hizbullah is a symbol of resistance against the Zionist entity,” he remarked,

Araqji said the party “has proved that it does not interfere in sectarian and internal conflicts.”

Commenting on Influential Muslim cleric Youssef al-Qaradawi's criticism of Hizbullah, Araqji stated: “He (al-Qaradawi) might have gotten confused between God and Satan.”

"What is expected from al-Qaradawi, who's the godfather of Takfiri groups, is to work towards uniting Muslims.”

Al-Qaradawi lashed out at Hizbullah's involvement in Syria earlier in June, calling it the “party of Satan.”

He also called on Sunni Muslims to join the rebels fighting the Syrian regime.

Qaradawi, a controversial figure in the West but who has millions of supporters, mostly from the Muslim Brotherhood, also hit out at Iran for backing the Syrian regime of President Bashar Assad.

"Every Muslim trained to fight and capable of doing that (must) make himself available" to support the Syrian rebels, the cleric said at a rally in Doha late Friday.

"Iran is pushing forward arms and men (to back the Syrian regime), so why do we stand idle?" he said, branding Hizbullah, which means the party of God in Arabic, as the "party of Satan."

I already said that--do you have any revisionist information you wish to add on why someone would comment on a foreign militia fighting for a regime that both are allied with his country or is that too much of a coincidence for your types?

"All the Islamic world respects and values Hizbullah for its fight against the enemies of Islam, particularly against the Zionists,”
So now the Syrian people are the Zionists?
and who declared Qusayr a Shiite village? so NO hizbushaitan is not involved in sectarian violence :)
this statement read the other way round sums up what hisbushaitan is all about: aa bunch of mercenary murderers gone on a killing spree against the sunnis.

What exactly is your claim that the Zionists are enemies of Islam?
You had better first look within Islam, Sunnis are enemies of Shias and Alawites, Shias are enemies of Sunnis and Alawites, Alawites are enemies of everyone.
How great to read all the time that Islam is the religion of peace, as it mostly is said not written, surely it must mean "pieces".

First you didn't have to post this 5 times in different places for it to be seen.

Second, the content of passage that you bring up is widely accepted by most scholars as a translation error. Since the original was written in poor Arabic by a non-native writer.

I am no fan of any of it but do some reading before you quote.

Particion please

Thumb primesuspect 13 June 2013, 21:36

I can't wait fr a moderate Iranian to win the presidentials. The current idiots are a threat to humanity. I'm not against a nuclear Iran but now with people such as khamenei around.

Thumb primesuspect 13 June 2013, 21:37

But not with people such as khamenei.... Or former Khomeini wom sacrificed a million lives with Iraq (killing a million people) for nothing.

You are going to have to wait a long, long time before you see a moderate President of Iran. Mind you it doesn't make much difference as the Supreme Leader is the one who decides everything there.

Partition please we want to go forward not backwards.
