Next week is Arba\u2019een, the Shi\u2019ite Muslim\u2019s second holiest religious ceremony, next to Ashura. The Iranian regime has spent an entire year planning for the event. It has mobilized all its official media outlets to turn Arba\u2019een into a mullahs\u2019 sponsored religious ritual.<\/p>\n

The clerical regime pretends that nothing bad has happened in the past two weeks in Iraq where more than 180 Iraqis were killed and 7,000 more were wounded largely by Tehran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)<\/a> proxies. The Iraqi people\u2019s revulsion for the IRGC and the Iranian regime especially in Shi\u2019ite provinces is significant and widespread.<\/p>\n

The mullahs\u2019 regime spends generously for its masquerades while exploiting the name of the third Shi\u2019ite Imam. This is while the Iranian economy is falling apart. Average Iranian citizens are suffering from unemployment, high inflation, poverty, and sky-rocking prices for essential goods and services. The price of a loaf of bread, for example, has gone up by 50 percent. Bread is a staple of the Iranian diet.<\/p>\n

Iranian regime\u2019s \u201cOperation Arba\u2019een\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mullahs spend billions of dollars on their Arba\u2019een project. Its highest officials admit that it has no religious objective. The IRGC\u2019s top brass and other officials refer to Arba\u2019een as \u201cOperation Arba\u2019een\u201d and not a religious event. It is an open secret that defections among IRGC rank and file have created a major concern for the regime. The mullahs\u2019 supreme leader Ali Khamenei admitted on October 2nd, during a speech to high ranking IRGC officers, that \u201cDesertion is pervasive and not limited to the IRGC alone.\u201d Therefore, the ceremony is also designed to boost the IRGC\u2019s low morale.<\/p>\n

It is important to note that the mullahs\u2019 regime was founded on the Velayat-e Faqih (absolute clerical rule) doctrine, which leads to the complete domestic suppression and export of fundamentalism abroad. Khomeini once said that if \u201cIslam\u201d is confined within Iran\u2019s borders it (the regime) would die. Iraq has been the prime target and first stop in expanding the regime\u2019s hegemony in the region. The IRGC has had a dual mandate from day one: suppression of citizens at home and the export of terrorism abroad.<\/p>\n

The strategy is to expand the mullahs\u2019 regime beyond Iran\u2019s borders. But the medium-term plan is to find a stable foothold for IRGC-Quds Force<\/a> (QF) in Iraq.<\/p>\n

In this context, spending billions on Arba\u2019een makes sense for Tehran. It is effectively a security initiative above all else. The size of the expenditure on Project Arba\u2019een is only comparable to major military operations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Uncovering Quds Force presence for Arba\u2019een\u2019s project in Iraq<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brigadier General Ramazan Sharif, the IRGC\u2019s Spokesman, clearly confirmed Quds Force’s presence for Arba\u2019een in Iraq. He said in an interview with state-run Mehr news agency on October 12th: \u201cThe IRGC\u2019s Quds Force, Iraqi police and Hashd-al-Shabi (Mobilization Forces) will have the responsibly to protect the (Iranian) pilgrims.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe IRGC will be active in different areas and especially in building infrastructures including parkades and roads\u2026 based on signed agreements with officials of the three Iraqi provinces. (These provinces are along the pilgrimage routes).\u201d<\/p>\n

Building infrastructure in another country has no other relevance besides attempts at the occupation. The secret occupation of Iraq by the IRGC has been going on for years. The mullahs\u2019 regime has decided to now make it public out of weakness and a desperate need for boosting the morale of its deserting forces at home.<\/p>\n

The Iranian regime\u2019s diplomats<\/a> are not employees of its Foreign Ministry in Iraq. They are members of the Quds Force. Case in point is the current Iranian regime ambassador to Iraq, Big. Gen. Iraj Masjedi<\/a>, a former Quds Force senior officer who has participated in many terrorist operations. Other Iranian regime\u2019s consulates in Basra, Karbala, Najaf, Erbil, and Sulaymaniyah are also run by seasoned Quds Force officers.<\/p>\n

Active participation of the Quds Force in suppressing the recent uprising of the Iraqi people is obvious. Many Iraqi politicians have protested against the role of the regime in last week\u2019s developments in Iraq. They said that Iranian sharpshooters have killed dozens of demonstrators.<\/p>\n

Arba\u2019een has a special place in the hearts and minds of many Iranians and Iraqi believers. But it has been manipulated and exploited since the advent of the fundamentalist mullahs\u2019 regime in Iran.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
