NCRI – The Iranian Resistance strongly condemns the heinous killing of 21 Egyptian Christian workers in Libya and extends condolences to their families and the people of Egypt.
The killing of innocent workers who had been struggling to make a living is an inhumane crime that blatantly contradicts the teachings of any religion and civilization, and severely violates international laws and conventions.
The fundamentalism, brutality, hostage-taking and terrorism under the veneer of Islam, emerged in this region of the world with the rule of religious dictatorship in Iran and continues to expand with unprecedented dimension with this regime’s meddling and crimes in Iraq, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon.
The first and foremost essential step in countering this ominous phenomenon that threatens the Middle East and the world is to evict the Iranian regime from the region.
