Tehran, February 01: A senior Iranian official has dismissed the West’s alleged concerns over the country’s civilian nuclear program, saying Iran’s Islamic patterns frighten the West.
“The [global] arrogance, more than being afraid of Iran’s nuclear activities, is angry with the Islamic Republic’s religious pattern for progress,” Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Saeed Jalili said at a meeting with a Palestinian leader on Tuesday.
“Today we witness the return of religious concepts to the political, economic and cultural arenas,” Jalili stated.
He further addressed the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientists and described them as “the martyrs of reviving the Islamic civilization” and a perfect example of the scientific progress of Muslim scholars and students.
In his meeting with the secretary general of the Islamic Jihad movement, the Iranian official highlighted the influence of the Palestinian resistance on the recent regional developments and on the sweeping wave of Islamic wakening.
“Palestine is the common cause of the Muslim world and the synergic axis of Islamic Awakening,” he added.
Ramadan Shallah, for his turn, insisted that the cooperative attempts to resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict are doomed to failure, stressing that Iran’s Islamic revolution has been a guide for the Palestinians.
“The remarkable success of Iran as a strong and pro-resistance Islamic country in the years following the Islamic revolution and in various fields is a bright light for the Islamic movements in the region,” he said.
