Iranians claiming Bahrain as their province

27/07/2007

The latest Iranian government statement issued by Hossian Shariat Madari, a high-ranking Iranian official and editor of the ultra right wing Keyhan paper, which claims that Bahrain is just another province of Iran, has highlighted again the Iranian desire to invade neighbouring countries.

In response many Bahrainis went on to the streets with Iranian flags painted with the Nazi symbol and shouted “Iran leave us alone.” It is well known that the Iranian government is investing hugely in the Bahraini Shia majority to establish Islamic government and destabilise this island...

The event displayed so much tension that the Iranian foreign secretary, Manochehr Motaki, went to Bahrain to calm the situation.

A few months ago, the former Iranian Consul General in Dubai, Adel Assadinia, in an interview with the Sunday Telegraph, warned that Iran has lots of sleeping cells in Arab countries. He also said:

“Were America or Israel to attack Iran, such cells would be instructed to foment long-dormant sectarian grievances and attack the extensive American and European business interests in wealthy states such as Dubai and Saudi Arabia. Such a scenario would bring chaos to the Gulf, one of the few areas of the Middle East that remains prosperous and has largely pro-Western governments.

“Allegations of Iranian agents operating in the Gulf have surfaced before, but it is rare for them to be spelt out in detail by a former regime official. Mr Assadinia named a hospital in Dubai - which The Sunday Telegraph has not identified for legal reasons - as one place where many doctors and nurses also worked for Iranian intelligence.”

The Iranian threat to Bahrain is like the former Iraqi leader Saddam Husain’s threat to Kuwait, which one day he carried out when he surprised the world by attacking Kuwait.

Another interesting point is that Hossian Shariat Madari who is an ultra Islamist and who is alleged to have been present and taking part during various Iranian intelligence service interrogations of political activist in Tehran is banging on the same drum as other right wing Iranian royalists. This shows that there is not much difference between Iranian Islamist extremists and royalists when it came to invading neighbouring countries.

In fact the Islamic government of Iran for nearly thirty years have always insisted that Iranians share the same blood as Aryans and Germans.

Also Hossian Shariat Madari accused Britain of separating Bahrain from Iran. All this shows that the presence of international forces is obviously necessary in the Arabian Gulf. Without them Kuwait would still be in the hands of Saddam Husain, as Ahwaz is still occupied by Iranian forces.

Iran sending bombs and arms into Afghanistan

After the fall of Saddam Husain in 2003, Iran started to do what ever it could to show that the British and US will come out as losers, not winners, in the end.

With this aim in mind, they started to do all sorts of things. They recruited Arab Shia from Iraq who live in Iran and also used Arabs from nearby Ahwaz to the south east of Iraq. They also shared their experience of bomb making in southern Lebanon to the different Iraqi insurgent groups. According to reports Iran helped almost all sides, regardless of who they were - Shia or Sunni, ex-Iraqi security services or the Kurdish Islamic movement - the only thing all these groups had in common was that they were against the US and the British and that was enough to get support from Iran.

Now news has emerged in the last 2 months that Iran is sending the same deadly weapons and ideology into Afghanistan, a country that has just been freed from the Taliban and has had 30 years of internal war.

Both Iraqi and Afghan authorities have spoken many times about the involvement of the Iranian government in Iraq and Afghanistan, but they do not know why their neighbour, instead of helping them to stabilise their respective countries, just helps their opponents to destroy their newly-elected democratic governments.

The question is why are the Iranians doing this? Were not both the regimes of Saddam Husain and the Taliban their enemies? Is the rumour of the revival of the Persian Empire in this region correct? Why is Iran after thousands of years now exporting hate to their neighbours? When is Iran going to change its attitude towards its neighbours?

It seems that having a democratic country on both sides of Iran is a nightmare for the Iranian leaders who think they are the only right government in the world and that God has chosen them. They are fulfilling God’s promise.

It is so frightening for them that they are ready to take the risk of facing war even. Despite many warnings Iran continues to send weapons and personnel inside Iraq and Afghanistan.
Surely if a wise government was in power instead of the current Iranian government, with the development of a huge nuclear bomb project and a new world policy after 11 September and having regime changes in their two neighbouring countries, it would have a much wiser policy than sending arms to these two neighbours. But why is Iran doing this?

The answer is the ideology of the Iranian government. They think even if they are removed they will be the victors. It is the philosophy of martyrdom. Glory in history.

Shia Islam is especially based on this kind of teaching. Imam Husain the third imam of Shia and grandson of Mohammad was killed in Karbala. He turned in to pieces according to Shia legend. There are many shrines for him, So many pieces of this man that every part there is shine for him. One place for his hand, one place for his leg and armour. He turned to pieces but according to Shia ideology he was the Victor. It is the philosophy of Pearl Harbour. We know now that the Japanese knew that if they attacked Pearl Harbour and made war with the US, in the end they would lose the war. But they still did it.
