Iranian Cleric: London Paid Price For U.S., Israeli Policies
A senior Iranian cleric denounces London blasts as "unacceptable and inhumane," but said that the victims paid the price of the U.S. and Israeli polices.
TEHERAN - Ayatollah Muhammad Imami Kashani said that "Tony Blair has - in his remarks yesterday - asked, 'Is this Islam? What kind of Islam do they (Al-Qaida) believe in? This is a fake version of Islam.'"
"Has the British prime minister forgotten who Al-Qaida's parents are?" Ayatollah Kashani asked thousands of worshipers after Friday prayers at Teheran University. "It's the illegitimate child of America and Israel, but you name it Islam. This savagery is not Islam. It is coming from inside of you and it is now punching you."
"You created all this to plague us, but now it is plaguing you. You have done that before, by equipping Saddam with weapons to fight us, but now you are bogged down in Iraq, he said, referring to the U.S. support of Iraq's toppled leader Saddam Hussein during his 1980-1988 war with Iran. "You have to learn from this and come to your senses," Ayatollah Kashani said.
Hours after yesterday's attacks, Iran's foreign ministry "condemned the terrorist attacks that caused deaths and injuries among British citizens," the state news agency IRNA reported. Ayatollah Kashani repeated that condemnation. "Iranians condemn the killing of women and children, young and old in the London bombings, and offer condolences to the families of the victims," he told worshipers, adding that "Islam is the religion of kindness, justice and humanity."
Such acts, he said, were "unacceptable and inhumane."
