Islamists blame the West

A  group of social structures  of the Islamic Guidance held on Friday a Roundtable on the Day Gudsa (Jerusalem)  at the International Press Center. Panelists made parallels between the problems of Palestine and Karabakh.  It was suggested to develop a strategy of "liberation of the occupied Muslim lands."  Speakers accused the USA, Britain, France and other Western countries of terror and chaos in Muslim countries. According to them, this situation creates favorable conditions for the sale of arms to the warring parties by the West.

The participants also discussed the Karabakh issue, stating that the OSCE cannot solve it, because  decision taken by this structure are not binding. At the same time,  was expressed the view that "the question can be solved only by the UN."

The panelists came to common opinion on the need of consolidate the Islamic countries in the name of defense of common values​​.

 The initiative to mark the Day Guds belongs to the  leader of the  Iranian  Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Khomeini, and symbolizes  solidarity of the Islamic world  with the Palestinian people.

In 1979, Imam Khomeini recommended to mark  every last Friday of the month of Ramadan, as a day of solidarity with Palestine Islamic world,  and since then it has become a tradition in many Muslim countries. -05C04-
