“It is not acceptable that the European Union does not blacklist members of these terrorist groups as long as they do not perpetrate a crime on … European soil.”
They’re right about this. The EU has become an exporter of international jihadis.
“Iran summons UK, Dutch and Danish envoys over attack on military parade,” Guardian, September 22, 2018:
Iran has summoned envoys from the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Denmark over Saturday’s deadly shooting of 29 people at a military parade in the south of the country, state media has reported.
The British charge d’affaires, along with the Dutch and Danish ambassadors, were “informed of Iran’s strong protests over their respective countries’ hosting of some members of the terrorist group” which carried out the attack, the official news agency Irna said.
Gunmen sprayed a crowd with bullets in the south-western city of Ahvaz, at a military parade in the in oil-rich Khuzestan province. Members of Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards and soldiers from the country’s army, as well as civilians, including children, were among the victims.
Islamic State and an Arab nationalist separatist group, called the Patriotic Arab Democratic Movement in Ahwaz, both claimed responsibility for the attack.
Islamic State said via Amaq, the news outlet linked to the group, that “Islamic State fighters attacked a gathering of Iranian forces” in Ahvaz.
Isis wrongly suggested the Iranian president was speaking at the parade. Hassan Rouhani was speaking at a parade in the capital, Tehran, instead.
Iran called on Denmark and the Netherlands to extradite the attack’s “perpetrators and their accomplices” to stand trial, Irna said, citing foreign ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi.
“It is not acceptable that the European Union does not blacklist members of these terrorist groups as long as they do not perpetrate a crime on … European soil,” Qasemi was quoted as saying.
The British charge d’affaires, summoned in the ambassador’s absence, was told it was unacceptable “that the spokesman for the Al-Ahvazi terrorist group was allowed to claim responsibility of the attack through a London-based TV network”, according to the news agency. Tehran claims the group is backed by its arch-rival Saudi Arabia….
“This crime is a continuation of the plots of the regional states that are puppets of the United States, and their goal is to create insecurity in our dear country,” Khamenei said in a statement published on his website. He did not name the regional states he believed were to blame….

Iran should have thought about this in 1979 when they got the ball rolling by staging their revolution, but with them, it’s always the other guys’ fault.
christianblood says
Iran is right. US and the EU countries harbor, fund and support huge number of islamist terrorists! Just the other day, after sending millions of euros to the White Helmets for years, the Netherlands has finally cut off funding to this Al-Qaeda-linked group that operates solely in jihadist-occupied areas of Syria. The question is will the US and UK do the same?

First, PROVE IT! The US is not the Netherlands nor do we necessarily desire their example of following Sweden and Denmark’s toward losing their sovereignty to Islam. Geert Wilders has his hands full trying to keep The Netherlands off the rocks. Rutte is finally half awake.

Just as Reagan courted islamic jihadists based in Pakistan to destroy secular Afghanistan in the 1980s, Obama used al-Qaeda to destroy Libya and Syria, and now Trump continues to back al-Qaeda in Syria’s Idlib! US administrations are ALWAYS in the arse of their islamic jihadist buddies!

You know, I believe that, but someone should have told Canada because they’re taking White Helmets as “refugees”. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/syria-russia-white-helmet-1.4749380. Canada…stupid is as stupid does.

In the same way, London is resettling dozens of Al-Qaeda White Helmets that were evacuated by Israel a few weeks ago to the UK.

Renate says
The West always does this. They put a good face on it, in this case, calling these people “White Helmets” as though they’re some kind of new humanitarian Muslims we just didn’t know about. Then it turns out that the “White Helmets” are affiliated with Al Qaeda, so their humanitarian streak extends only to other Muslims and they’re likely leave “infidels” for dead in the streets…not so humanitarian after all. Western countries need to give their heads a shake before they let any of these people in.

Prove what? It is clear as day light the pro-jihadist US and its allies openly provide hundred of millions of dollars to the Al-Qaeda branch known as the “White Helmets”. See it below:

It seems that christianblood and Ibrahim itace muhammed are now in agreement that it is actually the United States and Israel that are the ones waging violent Jihad…

Iran needs to take the blame for any and all of their actions..Why try to blame the EU when Iran is the world’s most prominent exporter of terrorism. They don’t have a leg to stand on..when it comes to who is the bad guys.
Renate says
I agree 100%. They started it in 1979, so they needn’t complain about anyone else attacking them now. But, of course, it’s all one-sided with them and they won’t admit their fault.
Kepha says
Actually, Iran probably has far better human intel on the various Islamoterror groups than anyone. They could probably be right. From everything reported, the likelihood is that the UK, Netherlands, and Denmark are utterly clueless about the people they’ve let in.

Death to Islamic Republic!

Death to Islamic Jihad.

Those attacking Iran here are in this case just as bad. Just more bloody Jihad.

Those countries listed should just deport all their Moslem “refugees’ let the moon god worshippers in Iran figure out which are the terrorist. Any that Iran do not want can be ship off to the Saudis .

Spreading terrorism around the world and complaining about terrorism? Did somebody see anything more insolent?

We both know that this has nothing to do with humanitarianism, Graven, like the US and the Saudis Israel has ulterior motives in supporting Al-Qaeda jihadists in Syria! Please watch the short interview below as Ex-this Mossad head tries to play the “humanitarian card” and then dismally contradicts himself in a few seconds! Please go to (mark 2:40) of the video to see it clearly:

Guy Forester says
It has been nothing but destruction and wasted lives ever since the West was stupid enough to get involved in any of these muslim v muslim conflicts. Supporting one batch of terrorists to go fight another batch of terrorists eventually comes back to bite us. If they want to go kill each other, there is nothing we can do to stop it. Eventually we become the targets.
Richard Hallin says
Things must be bad when a country that sponsors terrorists, actually complains and wants those terrorists to be brought to justice. Strange that the idiots in charge of most western countries won’t even acknowledge there are such people as terrorists, let alone charge them with any crime!!
Giacomo Latta says
How wonderful! Once again politicians are deciding to import muslim warmongers A instead of muslim warmongers B instead of deciding to banish all musliom warmongers.
Older Canadian says
Perhaps with the UK, Netherlands, Demark and etc. on the hot-seat, it may start them thinking that their tolerance of admitting anyone and everyone into their country, just might have conseqences to their elites that they had not envisioned.
