Iran: Terrorists, Tools for Furtherance of Saudi Plans against Muslim Countries

An informed source at the Foreign Ministry said that Saudi Arabia is using terrorists as a tool for developing its plans against Muslim nations in the region.

The source, who talked under the condition of anonymity, made the remarks while commenting on an anti-Iran gathering held on Saturday in Paris, France, by a number of the rented and ‘bankrupt terrorists’ affiliated to the terrorist group of Mujahedeen Khalq Organization (MKO) and their Western and Saudi supporters to protest against Iran.

Referring to the presence of former Saudi security official Turki al-Faisal among the so-called protestors in Paris, the source said Faisal’s presence in the gathering of ‘bankrupt terrorists’ has indicated, once more, Riyadh’s ‘political foolishness.’

In an indirect reference to Riyadh, the source added that Turki al-Faisal’s presence has also indicated frustration of the ‘father of Taliban and Al-Qaeda and the partner of Zionists’ in dealing with Iran.

Tehran-Riyadh diplomatic relations have been soured following the Hajj tragedy on September 24, 2015 in Mina where over 8,000 pilgrims, including 461 Iranians, were killed in a stampede. Many believe that the incompetence and mismanagement of the Saudi officials caused the tragedy.

“Turki al-Faisal’s presence among the MKO protestors in Paris and his anti-Iran remarks showed that the Saudis have resorted to terrorists as they had already done so in Iraq, Syria and Yemen, to achieve their goals against Muslim nations in the region,” the Foreign Ministry source told IRNA.

He described Saturday’s anti-Iran rally as a ‘street show’ made by terrorists affiliated to MKO and its Saudi and Western supporters adding, the so-called anti-Iran protestors and their ‘overt and covert supporters have come together to comfort each other.’

The MKO has carried out numerous terrorist attacks against Iranian civilians and government officials over the past three decades. Out of the nearly 17,000 Iranians killed in terrorist attacks since the victory of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, about 12,000 have fallen victim to MKO’s acts of terror.

Washington and the European Union have removed the MKO from their list of terrorist organizations and the group currently enjoys freedom of movement and activity in the US and Europe, including regular meetings with American and European politicians.
