MP Condemns Savage Crimes By ISIS

Orumiyeh, West Azarbaijan Prov, June 21, IRNA – Iranian parliamentarian Abed Fattahi said the savage crimes committed by the terrorist group Daesh stands in total contradiction with the principles of Islam and beliefs of over one billion Muslims in the world. Fattahi, who heads the fraction of Sunni representatives in Majlis, told IRNA on Saturday that murdering, looting and beheading have no place in Islam, be it Sunni or Shiite. On the contrary, he stressed, such practices are inspired by the brutal patterns used by the Zionist regime. He underlined that any group committing massacres in the name of Sunni Muslims does in fact tarnish the face of Islam. He reiterated that the degree of brutalism and backwardness manifested by the ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) terrorist group have even scared its masters. He believed the roots of Daesh terrorist group could be well traced in the US, Israel and the UK. Fattahi said the terrorist group massacres Muslims using the financial aid it receives from a number of backwarded Arab governments and the arms supplied by the Zionist regime. He said the world big powers are trying to destroy Muslims by Muslims through triggering such wars. By focusing on the ruthless crimes committed by the Takfiris, he added, the world hegemonic powers are trying to create the notion that Islam is a savage and backwarded religion while introducing themselves as the ones who have come to rescue people. The Sunni parliamentarian stressed the importance of unity among Muslims as the only way to put an end to lives of terrorists who are in fact fighting the true spirit of religion./end
