The Iranian Resistance strongly condemns the last night terrorist attack and killing of defenseless people in London, and offers the NCRI’s deepest condolences and sympathies to the families of the victims of this grievous event. The NCRI wishes quick recovery for those wounded in the attack.
Killing innocent and defenseless people under any pretext is a crime against humanity and has nothing to do with Shiite or Sunni Islam, and sharply contradicts the teachings of this great religion.
Recurrence and continuation of these antihuman crimes which have extended to many parts of the world are the unquestionable products of the expansion of fundamentalism and extremism. Breaking out of this cycle of crimes and carnage can be achieved only by concentrating on the main source of fundamentalism, namely the anti-human regime ruling Iran that is called the Godfather of Daesh by the Iranian people.
Mohsen Rezaii, former commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), described the last month’s terrorist attack in Manchester as the outcome of President Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia, a flagrant admission that the horrific terrorist crime has been in the interest of the Iranian regime.
