Iran leader orders Muslims to defend Palestinians


uk.reuters.com
TEHRAN, Dec 28 (Reuters) - Iran's Supreme Leader issued a religious decree to Muslims around the world on Sunday, ordering them to defend Palestinians in Gaza against Israeli attacks "in any way possible", state television reported.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also declared Monday a day of public mourning in Iran after Israel killed more than 280 Palestinians in two days of air strikes on Gaza.

"All Palestinian combatants and all the Islamic world's pious people are obliged to defend the defenceless women, children and people in Gaza in any way possible," Khamenei said.

There is no way Iran can do anything other than shout. US and UK troops surround Iran on two land fronts, the third front at sea sits an armada of naval weaponry that would make even Stalin go cold. They are penned in completely, one silly move and it's goodbye Tehran, even Mr whatever his name is knows this.

If by "sovereign" ?? lands you mean beyond 1967 borders, then of course Israel is occupying/expanding. Not into Palestinian territory since before 1967 there was no Palestine. Even with this land being in Arab hands by the way. No arguement about all of that But actually in sector of Gaza, from which Israel is bombarded with rockets and mortars for years - there are no Israelis occupying/expanding. They were all removed by Israeli government in unilateral desicion. It really improved things, right?Or the opposite. So until there is an agreement - we give land back and remove settlements and you stop shooting at us and recognise Israel - same mistake will not be repeated i think.

Your opinion counts. I'm pretty sure UK and USA will do something re Iran. Iraq is not lost, it is actually a better place now and better for Il UK and USA than under Saddam. Oh and please don't over estimate Saddam Style the Iranians, or underestimate the coalition. US military is designed to fight the Russians and Chinese at same time on multiple fronts. If the gloves come off re Iran, US and UK could cope no problem. Iran is surrounded right now, but of course it would be a conspiracy to wonder why.

I got a Question or two for you ZeroKnowledge.

Do you consider Palestinians human beings?

Do you believe the Palestinians live in the basic standards of human decency?

(Meaning clean water and a roof without rocket holes in it.)

MY question was directed to ZeroKnowledge and it stands. As one who has seen the inside of Palestine myself I wanted to know the views ZeroKnowledge.

Do you mean Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Iranian leader from the opening post?

Or are you talking about Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?

In either case, Copy and Paste will solve your problem.

The US is very capable and you know it. Is it 13 CSGs? I really think that alone is a fair capability. The US miltary budget and the black budget combined is certainly up there with the other militaries (to the power of whatever) with enough left over to dwarf emerging countries like Botswana, Iran, Venezuela. The tech the US owns upto and the stuff it keeps hidden is two seperate militaries in itself. If push comes to shove and Iran do get involved and the cards fall, the US and the coalition will be able to take out Iran.
