Tehran’s provisional Friday Prayers Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ahmad Khatami underlined that the US and Israel have created and supported the terrorist Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) to sow discord among Muslims.So Israel and the US created a group to murder thousands of people in order to distract the world from noticing Israel going after terrorists.
Addressing a large and fervent congregation of the people on Tehran University campus on Friday, Ayatollah Khatami said, "The US and Israel are supporting the ISIL with the purpose of disintegrating Iraq and create differences among Muslims."
He reiterated that what is currently going on in Iraq is not a fight between the Shiites and Sunnis because the Shiite and Sunni religious authorities have on several occasions condemned the ISIL and its crimes.
The provisional Friday prayers leader said the US and the Zionist regime are plotting to introduce Islam as a tough religion in a bid to allow Israel continue its crime against Muslims.
In similar remarks last week, another provisional Friday Prayers Leader of Tehran, Hojjatoleslam Kazzem Seddiqi said the recent attacks by the ISIL in Iraq are a new plot by the West, specially US, to distract the international community's attention from Israel's atrocities in the Middle East.
"The enemy wants to deprive the Muslim World of unity in a bid to make them forget Israel's dangers," Hojjatoleslam Seddiqi said.
It used to be that Israel would do good things to distract the world from its crimes, but now it is doing atrocities to distract the world from its crimes!
I think that whenever an Israeli kid climbs onto a school bus, people from Iran and Mondoweiss and the Presbyterian Church USA all say, "Look at how that child is trying to act normally to distract the world from Israel's crimes!"
