In a string of overnight messages on Twitter, Khamenei called on the Muslim world to unite against America and "other domineering powers," and said President Trump’s recent boasting that some Arab regimes would collapse within a week without US support was a “humiliation.”
Khamenei's comments come as a deadline looms next month for President Trump to decide on ending the Obama Administration's nuclear deal which lifted many western sanctions in exchange for curbs on Iran's nuclear program.
It is highly likely that Khamenei's comments will be leveraged by Islamist terror organizations worldwide to rally anti-Western sentiment.
Subscribers are reminded that the State Department's annual "Country Reports on Terrorism" continues to list Iran as the world's "foremost" state sponsor of terrorism.
[Presented in the Order Posted to Twitter] "That the U.S. president shamelessly says, ‘without the U.S., heads of some Arab states cannot maintain themselves even for a week’, is a humiliation for Muslims." "The issue of Quran is a perpetual issue of the world of Islam and Islamic ummah (Nation). If the Islamic nation turn away from the Quran and not benefit from it, they will suffer a blow— just as they did previously." "Muslims should stand firmly against the U.S. and other domineering powers’ bullying. If they don’t observe that, they will be humiliated." "Today there’s an internal war in our Islamic region, as unwise & reactionary govts of certain countries have entered into wars against other countries." "Look at the calamity Yemenis are afflicted with! Their wedding celebrations turn into mourning ceremonies: people are bombarded on streets, at bazaars & mosques; in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Syria the brutality is revealed in a differently." "This is because we have forgotten to value friendship between the believers; we don’t act according to Quran. If we do, we will gain dignity. This is the path to Muslims’ happiness." "Friendship with the unbelievers brings misery to Muslims, like the friendship some Muslim states have with the Zionist regime, exchanging kind words and establishing economic or political relations."
