Nazzar al-Samerai, advisor to the Iraqi Center for Strategic Studies, said in an interview with Al Jazeera TV on Iraq violence news, “Iran has always interfered in Iraq, either through Shiite militants like the Badr Corps that was established in Iran, or through insurgent groups that were formed after the invasion of Iraq. Iran is seeking to cleanse Sunnis from these areas in order to secure its link between Baghdad and Syria so it can send its military aid to Assad. What took place in the Diyala mosque is part of Iran’s meddling. It is said that 5 motorcyclists of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards came to the area and gave weapons to insurgents to carry out the massacre of worshippers.”
