Jihadist armies surround Iran

The title of the article is idiotic, I didn't even bother to read the article(?) wholly.

Since Jundallah/Jaish al-Adl, ISIS, etc are no sunnis (they are takfiris among wahabi and salafis), the article lost the grasp of truth even in the title. No sunni would destroy the tombs of Prophets and saints. No sunni would deem it OK to sell heroine and drugs to "non-Muslims" (this is what Jaish al-Adl does, claiming that shias are non-muslims, thus according to them there is nothing wrong in drug-trafficking into Islamic Iran), no sunni would target and kill fellow Muslims (be them sunni, shia, sufi, etc.). But the article tries to portray such monsters as sunnis. And it is not fair.

Thus, I find it sick when western media tries to portray this as a sectarian war, and even go further to describe ISIS, Jundallah, etc. like terrorists as sunnis.

I also disliked the articles baseless claims, such as "discrimination against sunnis in Iran" or even "no sunni mosque in Tehran", etc. lies which are false. Sunni minorities have more rights than the shias in Islamic Iran.

Please see: Nasr TV - Sunnis in Iran - Nasr Clip - Nasr Production

Also please:


And also:


In summary, sorry to say it but the Islamophobic article(!) which you quoted has no truth in it.

As for your title on "Jihadist" armies surrounding Iran, it is true: both the millitary bases of American hegemony in neighbouring countries and the Yankee "Mujahids" surround Islamic Iran. And both will fail God-willing.

Technically western media struggles to comprehend what kind of war it is as all. The problem isn't Western media. We are befuddled about all of this crap that shouldn't be happening and all these governments that say one thing and do another. Can't trust Iran. Can't trust anybody apparently. What is going on over there? None of it even makes sense.

So Matemkar,

Just for the sake of discussion - put on your journalist hat and describe the ISIS situation and the related sects as you see them.

Thanks!

I didn't read the article yet, because I have to run out and do some grocery shopping. But scanning the responses and as an American I do agree with Matemkar that the ISIS threat really isn't a Sunni verse Shia thing, though even myself I have used the term SUNNI EXTREMISTS in discussing their mass murder of Shias. But I have been very clear, that ISIS is a cult. And actually a modern movement (modern in the sense of their political jingo cult mixed with religion).

Now as far as ISIS now surrounding Iran or threat to Iran, that is news to me, but I do think it will become a reality in time if they are not stopped and they will commit mass genocide on Iranians both due to different ethnic race and due to religion if and as soon as they are able.
