Leader of Islamic Revolution referred to IRI-Qatar ties as an example of outstanding relations in the region and said the Persian Gulf region should be a safe, secure, and flourishing area through neighboring countries’ cooperation.

Ayatollah Khamenei said there are foreign efforts to prevent the countries in the region from achieving this goal, adding all the regional countries should make efforts to thwart foreigners’ plots.

The Leader of Islamic Revolution appreciated the Qatari government’s stance against the Zionist regime’s 33-day invasion of Lebanon as well as the 22-day attack to the Gaza Strip.

Ayatollah Khamenei pointed out that in the case of Lebanon and the Gaza, it was expected that the Arab states, due to common religious background, took sides with the defenseless Lebanese and Palestinian youths in Gaza, but unfortunately some Arab governments’ stance was frustrating.

“More efforts must be made to promote economic relations more than ever,” Ayatollah Khamenei said.
The leader of Islamic Revolution expressed satisfaction with Tehran-Doha relations and said, “One reason for close relations between the two countries is that all Islamic nations in the region have common enemies.”

Ayatollah Khamenei said the enemies were trying to marginalize main issues while rendering trifles as key issues.

Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani in return expressed deep satisfaction of his meeting with the Leader of Islamic Revolution and appreciated Iran’s stance regarding Islamic-Arabic issues especially Palestine.

The Emir of Qatar referred to Iran and Qatar’s shared viewpoints and urged all the regional states not to yield to foreign pressure.

Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani voiced hope for rapid growth in relations between the two countries, particularly in economic matters.

Calling relations between Qatar and Iran exemplary, Ayatollah Khamenei said foreigners are making efforts to halt such kinds of cooperation among the Persian Gulf littoral states.

“All regional countries must try to prevent the realization of foreigners’ wishes,” the Leader insisted.

The Leader expressed his gratitude to Qatar for its positions toward Israel’s 33-day war on Lebanon and the 22-day war on Gaza as well as the subsequent issues.

“The existence of common enemies that threaten the Islamic Ummah and the people of the region is one of the several reasons behind the close relations between the two countries.”

Ayatollah Khamenei reiterated that the enemies highlight minor issues by sidelining major issues. “Using a certain tactic, they go after Muslim countries one after the other. Therefore, all the regional countries should develop a deep understanding of this issue and expand their relations.”

The Qatari emir pointed to the two countries’ common stance towards regional issues, saying “Through resisting against the divisive acts of foreigners, all the regional countries should prepare the ground for further stability, security, and cooperation in the region.”

The big conspiracy of Egypt and Israel against Iran and Hezbollah


“Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Company” (IRISL) logo is written on the cargo containers which the Israel Regime military authorities claim containing 60 tons of mortar and Katusha missile equipment.

Egypt bring to trial 26 persons convicted of supporting Hezbollah on charges of arms for Hamas trough the Rafah land border simultaneously, this time Egypt with Israel cooperation have plans of this scenario for propaganda against Hezbollah and Iran to take dual use.

“Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Company” (IRISL) logo is written on the cargo containers which the Israel Regime military authorities claim containing 60 tons of mortar and Katusha missile equipment. Something that is possible with a little color.

Interesting point in this claim, the Israeli military authorities have claimed that the ship has started its cruise from an Iran port and last week had reached the Lebanese port of “Beirut” and after a short stop in this port had gone to “Damietta” port in Egypt and had intended to cruise to the “Latakia” port for of Syria to unloading its cargo.

While Israelis preposterous claim; that if Iran wanted to send cargo, Turkey could be the easy way to send and it did not need the ships to took further way to reach Lebanon.

In January 2002 the Israeli Navy, forces the ship “Karine A” in the Red Sea to take to the beaches. They banned the ship since was carrying fifty tons of weapons that were claimed was sent for the Gaza Strip and the Palestinians.

Later they announced that the ship was loaded in Iranian port and the ship starts its cruise from the Persian Gulf towards the occupied territories and then with television propaganda, the Republican government of America stayed in a position that named Iran as an Axis of Evil, but later investigations by Interpol and other independent international factors, indicated the source of the ship movement was a port of an Arabic countries of the region and had no connection with Iran.

Israel wants to obtain a political exploitation and with the conspiracy and cooperation of Egypt so expected to Ministry of Foreign Affairs be conscious about the weapons carrying ship which Israel claim that was carrying the Iranian weapons for Palestine.
