Senior Iranian Official: The Elimination of Israel a Sacred Aspiration
Hossein Shariatmadari, editor of the Iranian daily Kayhan, who is close to Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, called to disobey the ban on supplying advanced weapons and ammunition to the Palestinians and the resistance movements.
He described the elimination of Israel as a “sacred aspiration” that would purge the world of the sources of corruption.
In a rally in honor of Samir Quntar, Mustafa Dirani and Sheikh ‘Abd Al-Karim ‘Obeid (Lebanese terrorists who were released by Israel), Shariatmadari said that the rivers and oceans in which the Zionists will drown are already prepared.
The current war, he stated, is between the camp that supports Islam and the Islamic Revolution and the camp of the infidels and enemies “who have come together to put out the flame of the revolution.”
He added that the Islamic Revolution had turned the national Israeli-Arab conflict into a conflict between Islam and Zionism, and the conflict between the Shi’a and the Sunna into one between “compromise and resistance.”
