Imam Khomeini, who is one of the greatest contemporary Muslim thinkers; he is one of the history-making men of the Islamic world, once said that the Muslims, and especially the oppressed people of the region, should know that Israel will not abandon the idea of dominating Muslim States from the Nile to the Euphrates, despite the changing of figure-heads aimed at deceiving the Palestinian and Lebanese combatants.
According to Imam Khomeini, the contemporary leader of the Muslim world, the US will support an agent such as Israel through which its crimes in the region are being committed.
Therefore their political games should not be ignored, and those backing Israel should know that they are stroking the serpent that, given half an opportunity, will poison the region.
This venomous serpent must be denied the required opportunity, as the criminal Saddam was denied.
If given the chance, Saddam’s threat to the region would be no less than that of Israel.
Now that, for the sake of security in the region, this embodiment of corruption [Saddam Hussain] has been brought to the verge of downfall and the war-lord of ‘Qadisiyyah’ has been reduced to a wretched creature, the regional governments should desist from helping him.
This would be in their own interest, both from religious and material points of view, since, if placed in a position, he will not show mercy to any of the Persian Gulf States.
