Cleric Urges Muslim States to Break Silence on Massacre of Protesters
TEHRAN, April 23 (FNA)- Tehran's provisional Friday Prayers Leader Ayatollah Mohammad Emami Kashani called on Muslim states to break silence on developments in a number of Islamic countries in a move to force suppressive regimes to end massacre of protesting people.
"Those who are among the Muslim nations, instead of preventing the killing of the Muslim people of Bahrain, Libya, Yemen and other countries and supporting the people, talk nonsense," Ayatollah Emami Kashani said, addressing a large and fervent congregation of people on Tehran University campus today.
The senior cleric condemned the silence of Arab leaders on the massacre of the people of regional countries and said their silence shows their desperation and their fall from humanity.
He further highlighted the Islamic and popular nature of the recent revolutions in the Middle-East region, and stressed that violence will not stop the uprisings.
In recent months, a wave of revolutions and anti-government uprisings has been sweeping the Arab world.
In January, a revolution in Tunisia ended the 23-year ruling of former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.
In February, another Arab revolution led to the ouster of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak after three decades of his authoritarian rule.
Other revolutions are erupting in Libya, Yemen and Bahrain, while other anti-government unrests have swept Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Oman, Kuwait and Algeria.
