Jammu and Kashmir National Conference Chief Dr Farooq Abdullah said on Sunday he was disappointed over the Muslim countries maintaining what he called a deafening silence on US attacks on Iran.
Abdullah told reporters here in Srinagar that the Muslim world must collectively wake up against blatant aggression, or else they might face similar consequences soon.
“It’s a shock and a source of disappointment to see the Muslim world silent and sleeping. Today, when Iran is in this situation, the world is sleeping, but keep in mind that tomorrow it could be you facing the same consequences if they don’t act, and their number is surely coming,” Farooq warned.
He further reiterated that demanding Iran surrender or bow down won't work, as this will only strengthen their resolve despite US attacks. He said Iran as a nation will “not bow down to any pressure”, no matter what, hinting that the US was adopting the wrong approach with Iran.
“If the US and Israel believe that Iran will give up its ambition, they are in delusion. Iran has built itself on the Idea of Karbala, and they believe they are fighting a second Karbala against Israel and the United States. They will surely sacrifice their necks but won't back down at any cost,” he said.
On the US-Israel-backed regime change in Iran, he questioned how a regime change in Iran would make things better, Farooq added, “The US and Israel are of the idea that they won't let Iran have the nukes, but in reality, Iran will not abandon its ambition, especially after witnessing the recent regional dynamic changes post-2010 Arab spring.”
Israel and Iran on Sunday launched missile strikes at each other. The region will descend into permanent chaos if Iran, the US and Israel fight the last remaining anti-American nation in the region.
