Iranian Qassem Soleimani  threatens the Gulf with fire. The recent measures taken by Bahrain are sovereign, and Iran has no right to judge them.
The West does not fully comprehend Bahrain’s circumstances, and does not know the extent of the threat that cleric Issa Qassem represents. The country’s measures were pre-emptive, to avoid the establishment of a Bahraini Hezbollah that resembles the Lebanese Shiite party.
Bahrain revoked Qassem’s citizenship based on certain givens. He has been working for four decades on inciting strife and attempting to take over governance. He also has a group of secret individuals to communicate with Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
A source recently told Ash-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper how Qassem had received large amounts of money, was assigned tasks by different references – mainly Khamenei – and was allowed to act freely with the money he received.
Iran masters the language of blood and fire, while Gulf countries adopt the logic of the state and abide by the law as a reference.
Soleimani’s statements following Bahrain’s measures prove Iran’s terrorist role in the region and the world.
