It was recently reported that US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo declared that Iran is the “new home base” of Al Qaeda. According to him, since 2015, “Tehran has allowed Al Qaeda figures in the country to freely communicate with other Al Qaeda members and to perform many functions that were previously directed from Afghanistan and Pakistan, including authorizing attacks, propaganda and fundraising.”
In response, MK Ayoob Kara stated that Pompeo is correct about this: “Iran has become the capitol of terrorism in all the world. First, the Iranians will target the Middle East. After that, they will go after Europe and all the world. They say everyday that Shia Islamization is the solution for the world entire.”
MK Kara proclaimed that if Biden changes Trump’s Iran policy, the Islamic Republic of Iran will firstly go after the United States and then America’s Arab allies: “All American allies have a problem with America changing its Iran policy. To continue to make Iran lose, the only way is to stop any relationship with them, to sanction them and then I am sure, within one year, the regime will collapse and maybe Iran can be a democratic state.”
