Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi (aka the Butcher of Baghdad) addressed “a gathering of Sunni religious scholars in Tehran,” where he attacked “imperialism” for standing in the way of a “united Muslim world.” He also pushed the Palestinian cause, which is the basis of more unity among Shia and Sunni Muslims than most Western authorities are willing to admit. In May 2021, during Operation Guardian of the Walls, it was Saudi Arabia that summoned the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) to an emergency summit in support of the Palestinians.
The quest for a “united Muslim world” is that of a global caliphate; many envision Jerusalem as the future capital of this entity. In Iran’s vision, Israel will be obliterated from the River to the Sea.
Contrary to Raisi’s lies about “imperialism,” it is Islam’s expansionist imperative, its supremacism, and its quest for global caliphate that makes Islam the world’s greatest imperialist project.
“United Muslim World Biggest Barrier to Global Imperialism: Iranian President,” Tasnim News Agency, August 31, 2023:
Speaking at a gathering of Sunni religious scholars in Tehran, Raisi highlighted that imperial powers view a united Muslim world as the primary obstacle to their objectives in the post-World War II era.
Raisi pointed out that the “global arrogance” has obstructed Muslim progress, disseminated propaganda through media outlets, and established Takfiri terrorist groups to foment violence among Muslims.
He also noted that these powers have shown disrespect for Muslim sanctities, particularly Prophet Mohammad (Peace upon Him) and the Holy Quran, in their efforts to oppose Muslim nations.
Raisi pointed to regional developments, stating that the current situation in Palestine is unlike the past. He emphasized that Palestinian fighters are now taking the initiative, marking a shift from the past when the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) made decisions for Palestinians. He stressed that resistance is prevailing on the battlefield, and there is no longer talk of compromise or capitulation in Palestinian literature….

Really, Iran? Are you willing to concede that Abu Baqr, Umar I & Uthman were legitimate caliphs?

Hypocrisy (and stupidity) on display again. When Westerners conquered other areas it has been derisively described as “imperialism.” But when Muslims conquered other areas it has been whitewashed with phrases such as “Islam spread.”
BTW, the hypocrisy comes from Muslims; the stupidity comes from non-Muslims writing textbooks and so on and employing euphemistic terminology to exculpate the horrible destruction caused by Mohammedans to sundry cultures, for instance to Hindu culture in India.

I am afraid it is much worse than the sunnis and shias realize.muslim ‘scholars’ actually don’t see this…
koran 5:116
But you see…allah is NOT OMNISCIENT.
Bible people..even atheists might see something wrong here:
“O Jesus son of Mary!Didst thou say unto mankind;Take me and my mother for two gods beside allah?
So allah misunderstands the Christian Trinity:where oh where does allah get MARY from?
And why ask such a moronic question?Mary is NOT in that Doctrine of the Trinity!
If allah is omniscient he would know that he has misunderstood Christian Theology and would not ask such an idiotic question{Think of the Wizard of Oz as the curtain falls}
“allah is the knower of all things”
koran 2::29
No ya don’t allah,no you don’t know all things!
And let me tell you about the Scientific mistakes..
If someone said Christians worship 3 gods {Jesus,Mary and Joseph} you would laugh.
If someone impersonating a god said Christians Worship 3 gods{Jesus,Mary,allah}you should laugh.
He is not as omniscient as he claims.

Why too many leftists are fine with islamic imperialism? Leftists like to cry “American imperialism” and “apartheid Israel” yet they don’t see the worst imperialism and apartheid which is islamic. Ottoman empire abolished slavery during the Tanzimat era in the 19th century when it was becoming Westernised.
Sunnis and the shia are allied against the Kafir. Fightings between these two cults mean nothing when it comes to attacking non-Muslim civilizations.
