Iraq "chaos" will only end with foreign forces' departure: Iran

Mon Aug 11, 7:37 AM ET Add Mideast - AFP to My Yahoo!

TEHRAN (AFP) - The "chaos" in Iraq (news - web sites) will only end with the departure of foreign forces from the country, Iran's foreign ministry spokesman warned.

"We do not support any acts which endanger the life of the innocent, but we think that the presence of foreign forces and the way they behave towards the Iraqis are the principal cause of insecurity in Iraq", Hamid-Reza Asefi said in his weekly press conference.

"So for calm to return, it is necessary for the foreign forces to leave Iraq and to agree to give the future of this country to the Iraqis as soon as possible," Asefi said Monday. "Only under these conditions, can we hope for the end of chaos in Iraq."

Islamic regime to adopt policy of "Burned Land" in case of US attack

SMCCDI (Information Service)
Aug 12, 2003

The Islamic republic regime seems to have adopted an "expected" policy in case of a US invasion of Iran. This policy which is called "Burned Land" intends to destroy anything, such as cities, Industrial and military installations and agricultural fields before the arrival of the invasion forces.

Such policy has been used by other countries during the last centuries and especially by Russia during the French and German invasions of 19th and 20th centuries.

Based on a report, issued on Aug. 11th by IRNA, the Head of the Islamic Revolution's Guards Corps Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi, has stated that Iran has drawn up a new defensive strategy to confront probable American invasion.

Safavi has stated "Since America has superiority over us in terms of (military) equipment, We have shifted from defending the borders to putting up a defense over surface and this means no land is left to allow Americans to set their foot on

The Islamic republic regime's leaders have always confirmed their dis-respect of Iran's National Interests when it comes to the survival of their illegitimate regime and bankrupt ideology.

Rouh-Ollah Khomeini, the founder of the theocratic system, was believing of Iran as just a platform to be used in order to create a vaste Islamic system and everyone remember his infamous comment when he came back from exil back in 1979.

To a reporter asking what was his feeling following putting feet on his Motherland's soil, after 15 years of exil, he responded: "Nothing!".
